We only drove by and through the park, but it looked very nice with plenty of shade, trails, and activities for all. I will return if I get to the area again.

Walking paths, creek passing through, 2 playgrounds. Our 6 year old grandson loved it, especially the swings for two people. I haven’t been on a swing that much in years.
