The park was smaller and dirtier than I expected. There was trash, confetti, beer bottle caps all over the grass and picnic area. The pros were being close to the water and seeing the boats go by. There is a public pool at the end. Sprinklers and a playground. The area felt safe. If the park were cleaner I'd come back.

Is a very nice place has bathroom has some benches. Area for fishing. Floating pool. One thing I don't like doesn't have close places to buy food o drink. But it's a good place

Honestly the park was very beautiful. I suggest taking a stroll down the pier, especially in warmer temperatures. The smell of the river is truly something to experience and I'd recommend everyone to go there just to sit down for a bit and relax while admiring the parks beauty.

We absolutely love Barretto Point Park. It's clean, spacey, and by the water. We particularly like the free boat swimming pool that sits on the water. There's something there for everyone in the family to enjoy together

Relaxing environment with trees, benches and spaces just to sit. Has nices views by the water. I think there was a boat pool? After pics and video I didn’t post I got back on my bike and went home so I didn’t look at much else…😜🤠
