This was a very clean park. My oldest boy and I stopped in on a recent trip to stretch our legs. Great walking trails, bike trails, fishing. We found 3 playgrounds, all very nicely maintained. We will be back when we are in the area!

Great place for gateway to nature in Jonesboro. Scenic and marked walking trail and ample of seating space. Free parking in different Access Zones to the lake.

The parks were clean, and there's TONS to do. Loads of different parks for kids to play on. If you want to walk a trail, there's miles of it and every inch is brightly lit by motion activated light poles, and the layout actually makes sense. It's easy to get in and out. If you want to skate or bike, there are course's to run. There's a splash pad if it's hot, and places to fish too. Plenty of fun for everyone, and it's all completely free.

This park’s walking trail is designed surrounding the reservoir. Good place for everybody specially for families with kids. Swimming is not allowed but kayaking and boats are allowed.

Beautiful park with great walking trails. Plenty of covered pavilions for events. There are several playground areas for the kids and docks to fish.

Beautiful park that circles a beautiful lake.. About 15+ miles of fun and flowy MTB / hiking trails with lots of fun features throughout for different skill levels. Lake isn’t huge, but is a nice spot for fishing, boating, Kayaking, or all of the above. They have kayak rental kiosk. Nice playgrounds and water park for the kiddos. Plenty of places around the lake for a picnic or fishing. Just a great place to visit, or camp for a few days. Come here any time I visit Jonesboro.

Drove my cruiser today and went walking. Found a couple of quartz rocks there and even though it's the hotter part of summer, the shade cools you off and it's just a clean, calm, beautiful natured environment filled with everything that makes the natural state beautiful. Thanks for riding with me Jess, my true bff!

My children and I love this area, and we've seen several bird nests under the pavilion.

A beautiful place with lake, fishing, playgrounds, trails for walkers, hikers and bikers. A skateboard and bike area for doing tricks and stunts. Ducks to feed and geese. A Waterpark area. It's a great place to have fun and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Lots of covered picnic areas and pavilion to rent for large groups. It's an amazing park with lots to see and do and relax

Had an absolutely fantastic time. Plenty of playgrounds, all well cared for. Places to fish and walk, all kinds of animals. It's just over all great to visit with the family. My husband camped her back in October and was treated very well by staff and enjoyed his stay.

Had some old Army buddies we haven't seen in 50 years. They had a great place for their motor home. Tim is a veteran, and he stayed 2 nights for $15 each night. I personally think all veterans should be able to camp at our park with a discounted rate. Or even free. They sure didn't mind. They thought our park was so beautiful. Because it is. So thankful for a little piece of heaven right out of town.

The tent camping areas were perfect. Everything was clean and well kept. The camp host,Norman was very nice and very good representation of what you get at this campground. I came camping with my dog on my motorcycle and I was able to have a nice evening with unlimited free firewood included in the $10 site! What a steal!
