Decent park in the middle of the city. Trails clearly marked, but some are a little messy. It is December, though. The buildings are either new or in need of extensive repair. The picnic & playground areas well kept, bathrooms were tidy but not really clean. They are clearly doing work, so hopefully all areas will improve. Either way, it’s a nice place to be in nature.

I love the trail around the lake. Beautiful park, awesome ACTUAL hiking trails (no asphalt sidewalks), plenty of shade, just an all around good walk.

Beautiful place for a nice stroll or to ride a bike. This is the place where there's leaves on every trail so be mindful of that and the roots. But is a lovely place.
