"A very nice and quiet place to sit down and relax from the business of life!!"
"Very scenic! Japanese gardens are free to explore. Seemed very well keep."
"It's a lovely place to stay and relax"
"This is a beautiful place to relax and take a walk around outside, and enjoy the park away from the city. While here you forget that the highway is right outside, and how close the down city is. Visit with some ducks, or get an afternoon walk in while on lunch from work. Just enjoy the day."
"My kids and I enjoy this park every time we go. So many different spot to get out and play."
