Love this park! It's beautiful! Has a nice trail through the woods and nice picnic area. My son loves to go see the turtles and fish. A great way to enjoy nature even if you only have an hour. There is also a nice playground for little kids as well as older children. My favorite parks around here since I was a kid.

I've never been to the pool, but my family has their reunion here and my son loves trains. He plays in the wooden train and we go for a walk on the tracks. The Christmas train was a first for him and he loved it. Can't wait to do it again next year!

This park has held many fond memories of our friends and family over the past forty years. In the winter, however, there's no skating on the pond, nor boating in the summer. There's a nice swimming pool and four pavilions, plus a forest train, Halloween and Christmas events and day camp for elementary students.

The hours that are posted for the pool are inaccurate and need to be updated to reflect the current pool availability. Current hours are Monday-Thursday from 12PM to 6PM.

Called on Wednesday to confirm pool hours for my son's birthday on Saturday. Come Saturday they closed the pool early with no notice and my son's birthday party was ruined. Otherwise it's a really nice, clean park with restrooms and a public pool.
