I've been coming to Settlers Park for more than 20 years. When the kids were young, they used to…read morecall it "Pirate Park" and sometimes we still refer it as that. There's quite a lot to do but be mindful of all the activities that may be going on from soccer, flag football, tennis, softball, and baseball. My son when he was little even fished here with Mrs. Idaho one year. I have the picture and if I can find it, I'll upload it. Many many memories and sometimes lately it's just a nice getaway from all the emails, Teams calls, and crazy noise of the world.

Every year in April, my family and I participate in the MS Walk at Kliener Park. The MS Society…read morehas been hosting the walk at this park for several years now. It's the perfect venue for the walk. There are some walkers who have Multiple sclerosis so the fact that the paths are so easy for their walkers, mobility carts and wheelchairs help them out a lot. Having a nicely paved path for them is so important. I appreciate that there's so many things to do and see at the park. The walking trail of course. The big playground for the kiddos. The big water fountain to sit and chill by. The wildlife having babies and seeing them hanging out at the park. It's hard not to get sidetracked during the walk to look at all the ducklings. Kliener Park is so beautiful and clean. There's always a grip of people here all the time. It's great! People are out, enjoying the sun and getting in some physical activity. I wish I lived closer to this park. I would love to ride my bike down here just to get some fresh air and sun. I do look forward to coming back soon. Hopefully before next year's walk.

We love Discovery Park! And, if we had young kids, we would definitely take them here!…read more We do have dogs though, and they are currently expanding their dog parks. Yes, there are two - one for large dogs and one for smaller dogs. Not only that, but we also walk them around the full park until they've had enough exercise. Discovery is a HUGE park with baseball fields, dog parks, a skate and biking park, plus a well-built and fun play area for kids. I'm pretty sure we walked by a huge sand pit for kids to plain too! It's loaded with things to do, and we highly recommend it!! It's clean, beautiful, and offers a huge variety of things to do!!

This is such an awesome park! It is located pretty far south in Meridian, but if you are one of the…read morepoor people that live in this restaurant and entertainment desert, then hurray for you! Discovery park mixes all the fabulous things of a traditional park with educational pieces about Idaho. The play structure is great. It has usual bits like slides and nets to climb, but it also has funky bridges, musical components and a variety of ladders. There are two very long zip lines with the attached seat, making it perfect for all ages. (Yes even my 32 year old husband thought it was amazing) There are these super fun roller slides that are fun for older kids to try and climb, but also littles who don't like to go too fast on a slide. I love that this is the rubberized surface. When you have an early walker, this is the best type of park to go to. Behind the play structure is the best part of this park. They have a water feature to help kids learn about Idaho rivers! Kids can play in the sand, dig ditches and levies and divert water streams. There is also a traditional splash pad around the side. There are three covered picnic areas, large bathrooms and plenty of parking. This is a wonderful new park addition to our community!

Playground for the kiddos, tennis courts, beach volleyball, and basketball courts. Other amenities include benches, covered picnic tables, bathrooms, trash cans, and a parking lot.

The bathrooms close in the winter and lock after sunset in the summer but are pretty standard for a public park bathroom. Tons of beautiful, mature trees to keep you cool in the summer- and they turn the most beautiful colors in the fall.

Usually I do like walking/running 4 laps around the perimeter of the park (two blocks) which is equal to ~1 mile and then relax on the park benches which are well shaded even in the summer. It's the perfect place for families with small kids as there is a playground and is perfect of dog walkers. The park also has a tennis court, public restrooms, a small basketball court, and a grilling area. The only small complaint (which isn't a huge deal) is that some parts along perimeter have a sidewalk and some parts are just a curb. However, traffic around the park is minimal so I think an accident is less likely to happen. I'll continue to come to this park this summer and try out the other amenities in the near future! Come check it out! :)
