Reviews
"A nice little park that I mostly use for Pokémon Go community days. But it's clean, has plenty of parking, a nice group of outdoor instruments, plenty of places for kids to play, and a ton of space for picnics and the like. Also, during the winter if it's rained at all. It'll be home to an ice skating rink."
"10/10 recommend. I love my morning walks there with my daughter and spouse. We have incorporated it into our daily routine. My daughter absolutely loves them swings! There playground is great for kids of all ages. They have such a nice bike/walking path and with the fall foliage it's absolutely beautiful."
"Such a transformation since I was a kid here in Manchester. More activities and best use of space it's ever been. Newer, safe equipment for all ages and enjoyable walking areas for adults."
"So much to do...basketball, racquetball, bike path, walking path, dog park, playground, water features, music garden. Great place to clear your head. Next door to the Hungry Tiger..apparently that's where you can find the best burger in town. Grab a burger and eat it under the gazebo at the park."
"Amazing place to spend the day! Play equipment is new, and clean. It does require supervision for smaller children as there are some equipment with fairly high openings. That's a creek, and walking trails as well. Three portapotty should be avoided at all costs so plan accordingly."
