While on a family reunion we had downtime and needed a cheap/free activity for the kiddos. This…read morepark was AWESOME. It is built very smartly. There are shaded overwatch towers for parents to watch their kids in any part of the park, there is a splash park and multiple playground areas dependent on your child's size. We stayed for over two hours and the kids did not want to leave. Our kids ages range from 10-4 and everyone had a good time. My mother in law walked the trail several times. The other parents/kids were very friendly too, great park, great atmosphere. The only downside, which isn't even bad, it's expected, is that the bathrooms were not that clean, but it was manageable for what was needed for the kiddos to pee and go back to playing. When I'm St Louis again, we would come back!!

Though this park has the usual amenities like ball fields and a playground, its key feature is a…read morelengthy paved path that winds through the Spencer Creek subdivision and connects to other city trails and parks. The flat, 8-mile walking/biking path winds through a forest and along a creek. It's good for all ages and abilities. Mostly shaded in summer it's open in winter from native trees that have shed their leaves. Dog friendly. The path is extended by linking to other paved trails. Its northern point links to the City Centre Trail to City Centre Park on Mexico Road. At the southern point at Willott Road it links to Country Creek Trail to Covenant Park. An eastern spur connects to Alan Oscar Park. A baseball diamond, basketball court, two tennis courts, and football/soccer field cover sports interests in Spencer Creek Park. Two picnic pavilions and a large playground, which includes musical elements, will appeal to families. Restrooms available.

A very nice aquatic facility! I was invited by a friend who is a St. Charles resident. This pool is…read morefairly strict about non-resident passes, which I do understand and it is their right. It makes the pools less crowded, and I'm sure is easier on the lifeguards and maintenance staff. I have no complaints about my time actually poolside. However, I am knocking a star for their terrible online ticketing website. It appears they limit non-resident passes to twenty a day, which makes getting put into a que and then taken to another page, which was finicky, to pay with credit card quite annoying and also nervemaking, as I worried we had driven out for nothing as the number of tickets left went down... Anyway, I was impressed overall. Not sure I'll be back out before it closes for the season (mid-August, which seems early), but I was happy to invited once!

Its 44 acres include an outdoor aquatic center, baseball/softball diamonds, large playground (with rubberized surface), tennis/pickleball courts, horseshoe pits, football field, Ben Rau floral garden, picnic pavilions, and hiking trail. In winter, a park hill provides snow sledding. A serene spot in the park is set aside for the Angel of Hope statue, a memorial to all parents who have experienced the death of a child. Each December 6 an evening candlelight memorial service is held here.

The price Im guessing is fair its 17.00 if your a non resident and for non residents the website states you have to purchase the tickets online. There's a wave pool which is mainly where I spent my time. There's a place for the babies and toddlers to enjoy. There's about 4 slides for the daredevils at heart. There's also a concession stand to purchase food at as well, there's a sign that states no outside coolers but it doesn't say anything about outside food, however I did see families without side food and I have to admit that I also brought in a few snacks.

However, despite being in the heart of…read moreChesterfield (close to the interstate, the amphitheater and library), it was very quiet and hardly anyone was there. We came to see the Sculpture "The Awakening" which is a massive sculpture of a giant who is struggling to get out of the ground. It's not a single sculpture but five separate sculptures that make up "The Awakening". Great park to visit - not only for the sculpture but for some peace and quiet.

My husband and I came here when we came to St. Louis last week initially because I wanted to see…read more"The Awakening" sculpture, but overall, we loved it for many other reasons, as well! When we first got here, we noticed the park is in a pretty secluded area, and not many people were around unless they were going to the library that is connected to the parking lot. There are so many different parts of this park, including "The Awakening" sculpture, an amphitheater, a walking trail with a waterfront, and a Veterans memorial. The park was very clean, and we loved everything we experienced. The sculpture was so cool and is basically a steel man broken up into different separated body parts, who looks like he is trying to free himself from the ground. It's unbelievable how big this is in person, and we loved it. The Veterans Memorial was gorgeous and included significant quotes, a fountain, and American flags with every branch of the military included. The waterfront and trails were gorgeous, and we saw many HUGE ducks, cardinals, and wildlife. We loved the isolated walking trail because it had such beautiful views. Homes are being built around there, too, and the water would be such a gorgeous view to have every day from a home window. We weren't able to go to the amphitheater because they were getting ready for a summer night free concert event, but when we left, many people were gathering to go to the event. You can bring your own beer as long as it's in a can, so that's awesome and unlike many other public areas! Overall, if I lived in St. Louis, I could see myself regularly coming to this park and the surrounding area often. It's definitely a tranquil place where you can be one with nature and enjoy the views and entertainment.
