★★★★★AndrewWarm communal vibes with lots of events and amenities. I primarily go to play table tennis on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. There is also occasionally volleyball, hoop classes, etc. Nice playground directly down the hill. Plenty of parking. Front desk workers are almost always kinda unfriendly but never rude - probably just a weird job to have to sit there and watch people go in and out all day.
★★★★★Line•Of•Sight TechThis is a great little playground with a basketball court, swing, small rock climbing area, and a total of three swings. The Mumford Park Players stage is down the hill along with the baseball field. Public restrooms are also at the baseball field and at the top of the stairs in the community center when it is open M-F 9-4pm.
★★★★★Julie Van DusenGreat use of a hill, lots of levels. Plenty of seating for the grown ups. Basketball court too. Bathrooms available inside the building on top of the hill.
★★★★★Travis BurlesonTHIS PLACE IS AWESOME! From the playground to the amenities. The staff was fantastic super nice. Had a birthday party super spacious and right on the money. Very well price compared to similar. Def recommended for parties or gatherings.
★★★★Jennie AblanedoAmazing park with fun playground. Would not recommend this playground for younger children, the playground equipment is built into the landscaping, which is fun for older kids, but younger it is a bit terrifying.
