Wasn't as pleased w this park but I must admit I didn't see entire thing. Places I did see I wasn't that impressed. Could use some trash pick up but I did explore area that were off the trail.

Nothing was remarkable about this site. Maybe it's better when there is an event but we didn't spend much time there. Just long enough for my daughter to get scolded for touching yarn on a spindle.
