Merrifield Park

"The water slide is closed, likely permanently, due to poor maintenance. The concrete poor deck is broken and heaved around most of the pool. So watch your feet and toes and where you step! Also, I would not use or even swim near the swim race starting platforms. A few are ready to break and fall into the pool when a person is on it. Probably will happen this year."

"Nice community park and pool. River walk is nice to navigate the park. Great fishing spot on the St.Joe river."

"A network of wide, paved sidewalks traverses this park, and links up to Crawford Park via a paved under-the-road path, to extend your walk options without necessitating crossing the street. Merrifield has a wide variety of amenities, including: a playground, boat launch, shelters with picnic tables, an outdoor pool, ice skating rink, beautiful historic newly restored recreation building that can be rented, seasonal bathrooms and drinking fountains, and well-placed benches. The trails are paved, with a smooth surface that is easy to push strollers and wheelchairs along. Trash cans are well-placed along the paths and near the playground and parking lots."

"Good family place. The kids enjoyed the swim, but our time was abruptly cut short by 45 minutes before the advertised swim time. Not happy that I didn't get my money's worth- A whistle was blown at 3:10 & we were told to leave, upsetting my children."

"Great place to bring the kids and beat the winter blues. Friendly staff, affordable concessions, and not too crowded. Very affordable afternoon out with the family!"
