Great park for kids, nice playgrounds. The Hallet Oak was very interesting, love the detail and care put into preserving the history of the oak tree.

Myself and my aunt like to bring the dogs to the park in the mornings, the afternoons, and the evenings. Nice path for walking. I've got tennis courts. There is an old house that the garden club used to take care of that is used as a venue for meetings et cetera. There's a pool. A golf course. Tons of trees with squirrels. We see a lot of people and their dogs. Should you come at night listen for the owls. As far as I know the park is home to 3 or 4 barred owls. I like listening to them hoot to each other.
