★★★★★Alexis MedinaLove this park for my kid. We have been coming here for about 6 years. Always clean and quiet. Never had or saw any controversy on the playground. Usually school aged kids. Park has a playground that’s gated so I feel safer brining my kid there. Pool and basketball courts also. Never see or smell anyone smoking around. Plenty of grass field for soccer or you can visit the baseball field too.
★★Peter ForshtayA few short years ago, this playground received a refresh and new equipment. Materials used were cheaper than they need to be with such heavy use from the community. The current state of things have rendered the playground unsafe for children. It needs new and better equipment and a better ground surface, or to be rid of. It's currently attracting a hazard and is a lawsuit waiting to happen.
