    One of the prettiest parks you'll find in El Paso and it definitely houses a lot of great memories…read morefor locals. Everything from concerts to 5Ks are held at this park and at one time this was home to Western Playland (before it's move to NM, it actually was a great amusement park). In the center is the lake where you can go fishing or paddle out on a boat. I'm not entirely sure why, but people don't swim here. It's actually out of El Pasoans character to swim in anything but an actual designated pool which completely breaks my heart. I grew up swimming in creeks, lakes, and rivers and never once did I question the green stuff growing down the ways or whatever touched my foot (you always just assumed it was a catfish), but Ascarate Lake is actually a clean looking lake so it is literally the ideal swimming spot. My friends from Wisconsin wouldn't hesitate to jump in Ascarate...just saying. Ascarate Park may in fact be the largest park in El Paso and it's one of my favorites. There are a few improvements that I think could be made like adding a dog park and allowing re-admittance at events (you have to pay every time even though they give you a ticket, what the hell is the ticket for then?), but overall it's a great place for an event or an evening out with friends and family. Oh and it's free on the weekdays!

    Although the lake in Ascarate Park is man-made, it's sure great to see water for some change…read more Entry is free on the weekdays, and $2 per car on the weekends. This park is pretty big, and I love that there's a gravel path that wraps around the lake. Word of warning, I recommend paying attention to weather forecasts and avoid running outside just before/during a dust storm unless you love sand in your mouth. and eyes. There several great reasons to making your way over to Ascarate Park. Being active outside is one of them. Whether you're participating in an official running race or just getting some miles in your shoes, it's a relaxing area to run (and/or jog, walk, bike). There are quite a few 5K runs that take place here including the Walking Dead 5K Run that takes place on the weekend of Halloween ('real' zombies are after your two flags; terrify and fun!). This also the place for HUGE concerts/music festivals. There's certainly enough field space. These big events are usually well advertised for months over the radio. Or check out the 'Events' tab on Yelp! Family time is another reason to visit this park. Every time I've been here I've seen families picnicking/barbecuing under the picnic awnings. These are located throughout the park. There are also at least two play grounds for the kiddos! Definitely a family-friendly place. If only I lived closer to Ascarate, I would spend more evenings running here. But feel free to reach out if you're interested in finding other running routes/paths near Fort Bliss/Airport or on the Westside of town.

    Listen. I have about as much business holding a golf club as I do participating in professional…read morefootball (also care about as much for either). But when it comes to golf courses, this one's quite nice. I might even say it's...aristocratic. Like most places, you have the option to play 9 holes or 18. It's obviously cheaper if you bring your own clubs and happen to be in the military. Also, I had the opportunity to scope out the gift shop and...dayamn! They have single golf clubs worth more than my ice hockey skates! That's insane, yo! Attire: don't wear jeans here. Seriously, just don't. Typical golfing etiquette calls for some type of collared shirt and khakis. So, as long as you don't go looking like you're attending a BBQ, you should be fine. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to try out the local restaurant there. I was looking forward to sampling their breakfast, but...perhaps next time. I will say their locker rooms are immaculate! But you have to rent out the keys if you want to access them. Ah...but what of the course itself? Well, the layout seemed pretty standard. However, at one point I definitely saw dog poop on the fairway, which...I'm fairly certain is a no-no on the golf course. Well, at least the sand traps were well maintained (my boss must've shagged about 5 balls into the sand traps. Made me look kinda bad ass). If you're into this sort of thing, this course will do just nicely. As for me, I'm grading on a curve here, since I don't give a rat's ass about golf and was merely participating out of coercion. I'm giving Underwood 4 former hockey players questioning their life choices on a golf course out of 5.

    May 2026. Terribly kept and not worth your time or money. Greens are mid tier at best. Fair ways…read morepoorly kept for the most part and same for the signage around the course pointing to holes and providing distances. First time playing here and last time probably as well unfortunately
