Reviews of North Sherwood Forest Community Park
"Park is very pretty and clean. It also had a water splash pad area for the kids to enjoy. Age range is good kids 1-13. Also have seating areas for adults to enjoy and relax for some hours."
"Beautiful place to hangout with the family. Next time I go I will post a picture of the park itself. I take my son pretty regularly to feed the duck and we both enjoy it so much! Definitely recommend this park to all families."
"My family have been residents of the area for more than 25 years. I have seen this area go from United States Air Force Depot 2 a FEMA trash collection site to the facility that it is now. The Reformation of it over the last few years has been beautiful. Today my youngest grandson and I enjoyed 4 hours at the facility. We only played on the playground equipment, the bike path, and did a little fishing. We did not utilize any of the Interior facilities, but we had a great time. I think it's great that b r e c has provided an area like this for this community. Thank you. Please don't dump all the trash next door anymore. I'm sure we can find another site to do that. Thank you again!"
"The place is awesome! Love the ducks outside. Very popular place for sure. Lots to do for all ages! Everyone I met while there was cool except for one guy that worked in the gym that musta thought I wasn’t paying so instead of just looking up my name AFTER I signed in he asks me if I had a membership. I told him yes, then he promptly went back to sleep. I kid you not, I literally never saw the guy lift his head from that desk except to walk outside or start collecting the trash if it was getting close to 8pm. Not trying to throw shade on the place but he was wrong for that. If I was working there, a middle aged white dude, and I asked him, a middle aged black guy, the same thing without even checking first, Lord only knows what would happen to me."
"Beautiful walking trail, larger than some of the other parks. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because I hate that people come out there smoking weed. In broad daylight. No respect for the kids or others. May need someone to patrol the area."
