Drost Park East Division Street, Maryville, IL 62062

"This is a beautiful local park with so much value to the community. I would love to see this park expand what it has to offer the community. I would be extremely interested in seeing a small disc golf course be installed into the park. Troy park has a small disc golf course that could serve as an inspiration for a similar course in drost."

"I have been coming here since I was 4 years old. I grew up fishing here, playing, flying kites, and having picnics w my family. Definitely has changed over the years. Love the playground for the kids, the public restrooms, water fountains, and even the water fountain for your pets! Great place to take your kids, walk your dog/cat, or spend time w your family. I do believe there is a walking or bike trail located relatively close by. If not, I grew up riding my bike around Maryville as a kid. Always was safe and I'm pretty sure it still is to this day. Highly recommend!"

"Great off the highway stop. Clean restrooms. I really appreciate the work of the Tuesday morning local gardeners who meet here at 8 am . Stretch your legs here. Beautiful flowers. Asphalt paths."

"Beautiful park with biking/walking trails, a small lake and a playground for the kids. There are several picnic areas with grills. Benches are tucked away everywhere so you can find the perfect spot to watch the ducks, geese and squirrels that make this park their home. It's a great place to spend a lazy afternoon."

"Nice park with plenty of room to do activities or go for a nice walk. There’s a lake with lots of pavilions around and a paved trail that goes around the whole park. You’ll also find tons of flat grassy areas and a small garden area. They just built two pickle ball courts and there’s an online reservation system. My favorite part of this park is that it links up with the MCT bike trails so you can come here on a ride and take a break."
