    Great basketball court(half court), my friend and I love this place. Played it the other day until night, it was dark but some street light beside. however, it would be better to have some light for the basketball court.

    Great park for kids. Really needs a few more facilities like small toilets. Lots of free parking

    My kids favorite park. We call it the turny (turning) table park because of the fun circle chair thing that turns around when u turn the wheel. 😁 …

    Good sized reserve, low lying so gets swampy after rain. An adventure playground that's good for younger kids.
