Perfect for dogs and might I add, you do see many families here vs just hanging out and for the…read moremost part, it is a kind place to visit. I come here quite often when its time to walk my 6 dogs, and I do have to admit that a doggie park in the area would be better. Although I don't mind this park in the least since it is very dog friendly and the families that do come here are kind to my pets and very seldom ask to pet them. Since I think people should not just assume your pups are friendly (although mine are of course) I still don't agree with people petting for the sake of petting. The park is very clean and I do see that the staff associated with the park try their best to keep it clean. I do at times get disappointed when there is litter strew all over the place, but this is a family park and for the most part is always full of families and others so of course a little litter is expected. The park is pretty spacious so there is something happening all over. Kids playing, the field house, ball games, football games. Something of everyone of course. On the weekends it can be a bit hectic, since this is the time that everyone seems to be out, but still, it is a good atmosphere and the people who come to this park are friendly for the most part.

Pleasantly surprised to see all the great changes made to the park since the last time I was here…read more(about 5 years ago). A new outdoor children's play area is the biggest change to the park. I remember the last time I was here, the previous play area was very old and broken down. Am very happy that the city replaced it. I will definitely be back to bring my boys here throughout the summer.

This is another of Orland Park's wonderful neighborhood parks ... this one on Wheeler Drive. This…read morepark has almost a one square block of fields where soccer games are played, mostly the recreational soccer games organized by the Parks & Rec Department of Orland Park ... but anyone is allowed to come on the fields and play, when not reserved for the organized teams. Our daughter played here in the large Kiddie Clinic Soccer program where they teach young kids the game. Great fun. This park also has two sets of playground equipment for children ... one each for the different age groups. There are also two basketball courts for those that play that sport, and three fenced in tennis courts for those that play tennis. The tennis courts have the added attraction of being lined out for pickleball games also. This is a great park for all to use ... and it is close by in the neighborhood. Try it ...

This is not a good playground for small children as most of it is tailored toward Kids not toddlers and the slides that are there are too quick and somewhat dangerous for small little ones. The park is decorated "freedom" style as the name suggests and has real sized piece of a train and tank for decoration along with everything being red white and blue. A big downside is it was littered with trash- water bottles, fast food cups, fast food bags, straws- it was a mess all over especially around the playground

It has a kitchen area that accommodate the baby shower food. There had to be about 150-200 people. The only thing I couldn't tell if the air was on but it was a little hot in there.

The room was extremely hot throughout the event,…read moreand when we asked the staff about the air conditioning, they were rude and dismissive, repeatedly insisting it was on even though the room next to us was noticeably much cooler. Guests who stepped into the hallway to cool off were told to go back inside, with little concern for their comfort. This was my cousin's wedding, and it's unfortunate that she and her guests spent so much of the day hot and uncomfortable and couldn't enjoy themselves. Overall, the poor customer service and uncomfortable conditions made for a disappointing experience. There was no concern to our comfort in addition to the rude responses from the staff. I would not recommend this venue.

I have been coming here for 45 years. My dad and I have hiked the trails many times over the years…read more My dad has now passed on and my wife and I still stop in to hike the trails throughout the property. This place has always had a special place in my heart for how many good times I have had here with family and friends over the years. We always end up seeing some kind of nature, whether it's deer, chipmunks, squirrels, fish, frogs, turtles, etc. There is always something new to see. Over my years of coming here it has grown to have larger building with more interactive things for people of all ages. Trails are well maintained. Staff is friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back for more hiking soon. Dedicated to my loving father, who taught me if you stop, stand still, and are very quiet in nature you will probably end up seeing nature reveal herself to you.

One can explore the old Nature Center with historical facts or the new Nature Center with a kid's play area and animal exhibit. The snapping turtles were an absolute hit with my niece and nephews! Outside, there are two owls and a hawk as well as two nature trails and some kid's activities. Each trail is maybe 0.5 miles and 1.3 miles which is perfect for kids. Along the trails, be sure to stop at the lookouts to enjoy the views. They even have short peeking slots for the kids. I had the best time visiting Little Red Schoolhouse and seeing all their updates from when I last visited as a kid. Highly recommend for all!
