    Paved trail around wetlands
    Angela M.

    I can't believe I've worked so close to this park for so long and only recently actually visited it. They've recently paved the parking lot (it was previously gravel). There are a dozen or so spots right at the entrance, mainly for those using the nature trail/mountain bike trail at the top. But if you continue on down the hill, there's twice as much parking, bathrooms, and a large paved trail that connects to the Big Creek Greenway. All along the trail there are benches, trash cans, even recycling receptacles. There are mileage markers, though I could never determine the zero point or the path taken that would actually yield the mileage advertised. After a mile or so around two large ponds, the boardwalk starts. There appear to be miles of boardwalk through this nationally certified wetfland, with some of it designated pedestrian only while bikes are allowed on the portion that most directly connects to the greenway. There are a few signs with maps and descriptions of the wetland along the way, so you can learn something while you enjoy the outdoors.

    Paved trail, beautiful scenery and a gorgeous Sunday sunshine. The finer things in life!

    This review is for the playground area only. The first time I came here, I made the mistake of…read moreparking along Crabapple Road to try to find the playground. From there, you have to walk around the lake, then through the recreation center to the "almost other side" of the park to get to the playground. You can drive south the the entrance and park along the street or one of the small parking lots much closer to the playground. That said, the space is great! It is large and spread out. There is a covered pavilion and lots of other seating in the form of benches. There are 4 distinct areas, with swings in multiple areas. The slides are high and large and there is a zip line and spinning cage item that is a bog hit with the kids. The ambiance with the tall tress brings this playground home for a 5-star review!

    I've been coming to this park since I was a kid and I have to say it has gotten better with age…read more Not only is the place well maintained and super clean...if you see how many people frequent this place during peak times you'd be impressed too! Some of the things this park offers are of the following: 1.6 miles of walking trails 7.4 miles of historic trails 50 meter Olympic size pool with 8 lap lanes! picnic area toddler playground public restrooms an art center basketball, softball and baseball fields soccer and lacrosse fields as well fishing and a beautiful pond with ducks and geese They also have lots of classes for kids and adults of all ages including Zumba, cardio, Tai chi, nutrition counseling as well as Karate, fencing, self defense and cooking classes even! In the summer times they have lots of programs for kids including swimming and tennis and even writing classes. So whatever you fancy chances are they have it....

    Being honest, I thought Waller Park was part of Vickery Creek until I saw that it's its own park…read more As other reviewers have said, it's definitely a hidden gem, because it's a very small park, but it serves its purpose well. The name of the Waller Park Extension game are fields. Several different fields litter the area and I counted at least 4, crammed into this tiny foot print. Parking is surprisingly very spacious and in fact, there's a lower parking lot that's just behind the City of roswell office that you pass to get to another area of the park. Down below is more parking, as well as yet another soccer field. Front and center at the main portion of the park is a nice children's play area, that was being taken full advantage of by kids, and strategically placed near the play area, were benches for parents to sit and watch or just for anyone to sit and soak up the day. Park up keep is very clean and well put together. I didn't see one stray piece of trash, which is pretty cool! There is an aquatic center to the left of the park (if you're facing the children's play area), but i'm not sure if it is affiliated with the park itself. There are no hiking trails here, but my guess is you're not coming here for that, and that's cool. If you have kids, play sports or just live close, this tiny little park is your little secret. If you're looking for a hike, or a monstrous mega park, you wont find that here. Nice, clean, small park with lots of parking that gets the job done. Definitely a fan!

    Waller park extension is a hidden gem! I have lived in the area for a few years and I didn't even…read moreknow about this park until a few days ago. My friend was telling me how awesome it is....and she was right! There are lots of sports fields here and I know Roswell recreation department offers sports classes for kids. There are 2 play structures. One hue one for older kids including a rock wall, huge slides, and other various things. Then a smaller one with the same kind of things on a smaller level. They have several swings including a tire swing and handicapped swing too. There is a pavilion are with lots of shade, and there is good shade coverage from the trees as well. There is also a huge skate park in the back!! Also community tennis courts! This seems like a great park and we will definitely be utilizing it!
