Reviews of Greasewood Park
"What a great park! I went on a weekday after work and it was so peaceful and the views were amazing. Will be making this a go-to spot. I will repeat some of the comments that there seem to be a lot of men just hanging around the area? I’m not sure if it’s a cruising spot or what, but just be mindful and safe! (Especially if solo!)"
"Beautiful views! I went on a weekday in the morning. Not many people. Enjoyed the walk."
"As a GA photographer in the area for a very short time, I was looking ALL OVER for a spot to get the classic AZ look without having to hike a lot or pay to go into the National Parks. I found this FREE park and was in absolute awe when I parked and walked around. It is close to a lot of places but still very quiet and makes you feel as though you are in the middle of the AZ landscape away from the world. Highly recommend if you wanted a quick park and walk to get amazing photos of the AZ landscape."
"I came to this park the first time looking for a quiet peaceful place to sit and sing in nature. I encountered so many rare sites such as a few hidden treasures, amazing views of the clouds, and many cactus I call "hearts of the desert". It has a variety of different hiking paths, a ramada, and places to sit, cookout on the BBQ, and labels of different desert plants that grow here in Arizona. I met a man here who waters the plants in between the "rainy" season. So many friendly strangers and views of the mountains as well the city. I highly recommend this park especially when the sun is shining in the sky."
"Very pretty, clean, felt safe. Saw a deer and some hares! Dog friendly. There is a nice paved path but it's only a 10 min walk. From there you can take an easy path in a loop (you can see the trail on Google maps), and there is a wash area you could walk along as well. Directions from Google wanted me to go through a gated neighborhood... Get directions to the parking area instead (you can see it on Google maps)."
