Really loved this location but it was too far from the playground. We will be renting one closer next year.

Quite disappointed with the park. The basketball goals are gone, the tennis court was gone and the baseball field has been converted to a Little League field. Sixty-Two year old kids, like me, enjoy playing baseball in a wide open field, not in a cramped area.

Perfect spot for out grads celebration! Grounds were well kept, restroom was clean, grills were ready for use (no pre-cleaning needed), and ample space with plenty of shade.
