Great skatepark, but there are problems... First of all, WAY…read moreto many little kids getting on the way. It is almost impossible to have a good line without kids being in the way. They most of the kids just don't know the flow of the park. There is some concrete damage, but not too much in the way. Here is what the park has: A hip, a half pipe section, a snake run, ledges, hubbas, stair sets and more. The best thing is TWO bowls. Okay so the first bowl is really beginner friendly, as it has a roll in into the bowl but it is a little steep. Also has drop in into the bowl that is steep but not complete VERT steep. The next bowl is big and giant. Overall, I recommend going to this park, but try to go early or late to avoid kids.

Shout out to Urban Run Club for introducing me to the park! I love that they have air pumps, a pool, and other amenities. I wish that there was more water fountains along the trails though.

It's a great place for a long walk with your dogs. Beware of the deer or deer dung in the grassy areas. Also, they only have porta-potties.

I come here for a variety of activities the best part is that they have a batting cage for you to use. I see families over at the playground all of the time there are walking trails right behind the park I even have rode along the trails behind the park also. It does get a little crowded when baseball season is active but generally things are pretty vacant and well-kept. Another great perk is that there are bathrooms on either end of the park.

Great park! I love the skatepark here and the fields ! Such a cool park ! Some nice trails tooread more

So I'll start by saying I'll never give a skate park a 1 star unless there is nothing there to…read moreskate. But I will say that this place is very deceiving from the videos and pics that were previously reviewed. This is a small park; please don't expect more. There is unique parts the park and that's cool but the flow of the park is really just 1 or 2 directions that's all. If this is the only park you know then I'm sure you make the best of the situation but if you've been to other parks in Austin and the surroundings areas then you know what I'm saying. This park is shake-able of course but the luster does die down fairly quickly. To compare it to another small skatepark, the park on well branch; small but the flow of the park is really nice with an A-frame on one side and a nice stair set on the other side, mellow U-shaped bowl in the middle to carve back into the half pipe, with roll in's on both sides of that. That park is one of the better smaller parks, but so much you can do to have a great expertise for hours. This park doesn't hold up to that...unless you truly love transition. That's where this park gets its glory back, the transition here is pretty unique and seems to be fun and spacious enough to have a bunch fun. But Cole out and check it out for yourself and you be the judge for the toe off skating you enjoy!

This park resides at the back side of Cottonwood Shores near a nature preserve and historical cemetery all within walking distance. It is a concrete structure built on a sloping hillside near some residential homes. They only drawback, is that it is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. However, if you're an avid skateboarder, you'll likely have the whole place to yourself.

The park has a bowl and various ramps, catering to experienced and novice alike. Parks like this tends to draw more skateboards than BMX. This park was no different - I think 80% were skaters. But I didn't see any hostility between skaters and bikers. And no one was territorial and acted as if they own the park. Even when little kids (under 5) got on to ride around, no one got mad at them or threw any attitude. Overall, everyone was pretty cool and were there just to have fun. If you go, few suggestions. 1) Wear at least a helmet. I didn't see any crashes, but as safety precaution, protect your head - especially if you have a little one. 2) Bring water - lots of it. There is no water fountain at the park (but a 7-11 just few blocks down). 3) Go early, especially if you have kids. Afternoon tends to draw out bigger kids/adults so it could be more dangerous if you have smaller kids. If you go early, it's still open enough that your kids can enjoy the park without worrying about getting in other people's ways. 4) Be careful if you're allergic to bee stings. Lots of empty soda cups draw bees. Even though the cleaning crew emptied out trash cans, I saw a lot of bees buzzing around. Couple of negatives - there is no shade so in the summer, it'll be HOT, especially when the sun bounces off the white concrete. Parking could be a challenge - we went on a Sunday so we were able to park at the lot (but requires a permit from Austin Rec Center on weekdays).
