The area looked well maintained and clean. Parking was no problem even on a weekend visit just after lunch. Review #938

There are Drag shows and sex toys sold by some vendors in tents. They try to say it is Family Friendly. I guess that depends on your point of view. Other festivals they have here seem to serve a purpose, like selling crafts and home-made goods. I just wish Pendleton Pride would put their Festival on elsewhere. It distracts from the nature that God intended the Park to be. I am surprised the Park Board here thinks most residents want a Festival like that here.

Fall Park is a beautiful retreat in the heart of Pendleton with a rich history. According to…read morehistorical plaques, indigenous people found refuse in the beautiful natural falls. Early settlers moved to the area in 1818 and harnessed the energy of the falls for milling and other uses. A cannery and quarry thrived on the banks of the beautiful creek. After which the area became a neglected dumping grounds. In 1919, a local business man had the vision to clean up the property and turn it into a park. Today, the park is beautiful with a massive modern playground, restroom facility, picnic pavilions, paths along the creek and naturally terraced falls. The quarry was turned into a lovely little pond complete with a folk art lighthouse. A quiet war memorial stands on the north side of the pond. I enjoyed my walk through the manicured grounds with gardens and shaded by large trees. Plenty of parking areas meander through the park. Fishing is permitted in the stream. The park is now host to annual events. This is a fabulous community park with beautiful natural elements, great facilities and a little history.

For a town of 1,600 people, Daleville's Town Hall Park is way more awesome than I could have ever…read moreimagined! The families in this cute town are super lucky to have such a great park with an amazing and large playground, a fantastic splash pad, a snack bar that sells snow cones in the summer, a train to play on, an amphitheater, a dog park, and even a cemetery! (Although, I wouldn't add the cemetery to the list of "lucky" attributes -- I just think it's interesting that there is a cemetery and a quiet space away from the playground at which to sit and reflect.) My children and I have been to a lot of playgrounds -- a lot. This is probably one of the best playgrounds I've seen in a while, and certainly the best playground in the area. It's so large that I was having a hard time taking a good photo of the whole thing. It's just so massive and sprawling. The playground is separated into an area for young kids under 5, and then an area for older kids. The toddler/younger kid area has pint-sized playground equipment, swings, a huge cement slide, a merry-go-round, a teeter totter and lots of space to run around. The older kid area is the perfect place to play hide and seek. There is just so many nooks and hiding places in the gigantic playground structure. There are bridges, ropes to climb, slides, stairs, rocks -- I can't even describe it well. Just look at my photos and you'll see how great it is. The playgrounds are outfitted with Astroturf, so the ground is nice and soft. The splash pad, which was turned off for the season when we were there, looks like it would be lots of fun. We'll have to come back in the summer and check it out. The splash pad is right next to the snack bar, which sells typical snack bar food (hot dogs, Uncrustables, nachos) as well as snow cones with dozens syrup flavors. There are tables all around the splash pad, so you can pick a table and see your kid play in the water. And best of all: There are big umbrellas around the splash pad, so there's shade! Off to the side is a big shaded atrium with picnic tables, and that's where the little train is. Kids can climb in and pretend they're train conductors and whatnot. As my kids were in the train, a real train came blasting by -- the park is close to the train tracks -- which lended a sense of realism to the whole thing. This park is a short three-minute walk to Dunn-Right, which sells great loose meat sandwiches, hot dogs and ice cream. You can really stay in this area of Daleville for hours.

Here there is something for everyone. It is a nostalgic place for me and many others who are from…read moreTroy, Ohio. But for many, this is a new and booming place, but it's not exactly new. This is not just any park...here is a little history: In the early 1940's, several Troy residents began clearing the river and the banks of rubbish in hopes of using the area for water activates. They even cleared away the remains of an old wooden damn located just north of the Adams St. Bridge. Then, Edward Alvah (E. A.) and William Hobart took an interest in the park and provided the heavy equipment needed to assist in the process of clearing. That's right...E.A and William Hobart of the Hobart Brothers Corporation. The Hobart Corporation used to be based in Troy, Ohio. Yes, that's right...the ones that created and made Kitchenaid for the home and for commercial use...and they are still made today (just not here). Let us not forget the welders, generators and industrial equipment as well to name a few. They weren't always made in a foreign country. Indeed, Hobart was alive and well in Troy, Ohio and the surrounding area once upon a time. The Corporation put quite the thumbprint on Troy, this is one of them. The leaders of the Hobart Brothers Corporation wanted to provide a location for not only boating enthusiasts, but also for their employees to enjoy the Great Miami River and all activities related to water. So, they constructed a marina, a boathouse, and a launch area with a lighthouse all from the profits of the company. At one time there was a baseball diamond located here and playground equipment as well. The place boomed with boating activities, festivals and company picnics for many years. My grandparents and parents used to speak of the fun times here. In the 1960's, E.A. Hobart gave the boathouse and property to the city of Troy as a gift. Troy accepted and decided it had great recreational potential. It has been utilized in many ways over the years. It has even seen days of non-use and dilapidation as well sadly. Some of my fondest memories growing up were playing out on the island after crossing a bridge...and we always fed the ducks. I used to love to ride my bike down that steep hill coming in and lift my legs & feet off the peddles. We used to rent canoes and paddle boats below...sweet memories. But what was once old, is new again. It brings me tears of joy to see this place come alive again and alive it is indeed. This place not only has its own website now, but it has a Facebook page too! There is a fairly new restaurant in the building called "Smith's Boathouse". The Smith family has a history of their own. I went to school with one of the brothers and was able to enjoy the family restaurant in Maui (Yummy). It is a great addition to the Park. And if you get a chance, please check it out. But not only that, there is now an area for concerts in addition to the typical walks, playing, biking, picnicking or just hanging out and enjoying the view. There is quite the venue these days at Treasure Island. It makes me smile that it is alive again. Although people call it "new", please don't forget the history, how it started, why it's here and how it has evolved. When in Troy...stop down...a water activity may interest you, a stroll, a bike ride...or maybe just the view. These are only a few things you can do there...there is something for everyone...to include finding that special spot for peace and quiet. http://www.troyohio.gov/587/Treasure-Island-Park https://www.facebook.com/pages/Treasure-Island-Park/142286295802726

I saw several vehicles pulled onto the grass to get out of the single lane drives through the park.
