What a great town park. Glenrock Town Park is located near Deer Creek, but accessible via Birch Street, one of the town's main streets.
The entrance off Birch Street takes you under a railroad trestle and as you enter the park, the first thing you'll notice is the number of trees. Had I not seen the picnic tables, baseball field, tennis courts, the playground equipment, and what looked like a skate park, once I passed under that trestle, I'd have thought I was in a mini forest. I was really impressed with this nice, well-kept park.
As a bonus, there's an easy walking path nearby -- that's a little over two miles long -- and is a good way to enjoy nature or do something with the family after you've had your picnic.
Glenrock Town Park is near an RV Campground -- I didn't notice that until I got to the back of the park -- but for anyone camping there, they have a buffer from the noise. Not only because of the trees, but because this park is only open from sunrise to ten at night. read more
