What a fun find! I've lived in the Dayton area now for nine years and after hearing from many…read morefriends about Magee finally took some time to visit. We were coming mainly for the direct, easy access to the creek. With little ones this was something I needed. We were pleasantly surprised to find a great playground, picnic shelter, and just the best green space. Shade for days, which is perfect for hot days. The creek access is wonderful. Down a little embankment and you are right there. It's fairly shallow with some deeper parts. It's really easy to walk in. I highly recommend Keens or some type of water sandal with gripes. It can be slippery on the rocks. We found minnows, a water snake, and rocks. Didn't really look for much else as the kids were happy just to play in the water. The playground was great after they were done playing in the creek. Being completely shaded made it perfect for the hot afternoon. This is another near play area with various nature things on the outside of the structure and some cool things up in the tree house. They also had two small swing sets.

First trip out to Magee Park. Took my two grandchildren, ages 8 and 5. Very nice. The parking lot…read moreis adequate size. A covered shelter with tables sits off to one side. Great for picnics, etc. To the opposite end of the park, you'll find a large, open, grassy area, perfect for touch football. The playground itself is rather small, but the equipment appears to be in good condition. The big draw for us? The creek! What a great set up! Easy trek to the creek bed. Water seemed relatively clean (but cold!). The kids and I were able to wade around and hunt for minnows and fossils. Definitely the highlight of the park. Drawbacks: 1). Big groups using the shelter might fill up the parking lot fairly quickly. 2). Limited playground equipment. 3). Porta-potty, rather than actual restrooms - only one available (didn't use). Hands down, the creek is the reason to visit. We will definitely be returning. 4 1/2 actual stars.

My husband and I bought 2 new phones. My phone locked up. I took it to the Fairborn store and the…read moregirl there very rudely said she couldn't do anything for me ,even though the receipt said you had 7 days for return. She screamed at me and said that's not their policy. I said then I want my money back she said I can't do that. I left very upset. The next day my husband and I went back. We literally took 2 steps in the door and she screamed at me and said I told you yesterday that I couldn't do anything for you . My husband said the receipt said we had 7 days she retorted THAT'S NOT OUR POLICY ! We all started hollering and she said we were in her personal space and she was calling the sheriff. We were on the other side of the counter! She kept repeating this so we left. THIS is customer service ? This girl needs to be fired! We will never go back to the Fairborn store again. We've talked to another Cricket store on Wilmington and that nice young man said he will do anything we need. By the way we are elderly people. She really does need to be FIRED !!!

Now that we've moved to a different part of town, this is our new go-to Park. My husband and I love…read moreall of the paved trails as it provides a nice walk in the evening. There's a gazebo and a swing that makes things feel evening a little romantic. Also, how fun is it to see deer everywhere? My little boy loves the playground near the main parking lot. I'm sure he will be happy to explore the other two playgrounds that this park features. The only downsides? Very little shade, wandering skunks and no swings for the kiddos.

This is a top notch park, for its very central location (surrounded by urban sprawl) and no wooded…read moreareas Delco park brings a powerful punch of pleasant surprises. From 3 shelters you can rent, to a playground, an awesome lake with a pier and pavilion at the end of it (you can rent the pavilion I believe) to soccer, baseball, softball, sand volleyball and a BMX bike track they really fit a lot into a tight urban park. And parking for the most part isn't an issue. This is the park where Kettering has their 4th or July fireworks and it's packed (like 15,000) with people. They have lots of other fun festivals kids fishing derbies and it's home to Metro futbol club and their home fields and practices. The reason for not a 5 star is there is only one bathroom facility in the whole park. But other than that I love the trail around the park and all the sparks fields are in great shape. They really do a great job maintaining everything. Ooo, check this out if you love Pokémon Go! This place is the spot. I've never seen so many people on their phone playing that game around Dayton like I do here. Enjoy!! Update as of October 19 the park has free wifi, woot woot!!

Nice park, great walking/running paths around the lakes, and more!! I was here for a group picnic,…read moreunder a large, well-kept up shelter, so I didn't check out all the facilities, but I saw lots of kids/adults enjoying baseball fields, volleyball courts, and more!! Nice playground for kiddies too. One small ding for no (visible) restroom facilities near the picnic shelter, but I'm sure they're SOMEWHERE nearby...
