This place is magical! You have to stop her if in Payson I love bringing my little dog! I love seeing the ducks swimming in the water. I enjoy going out on the pier and being amongst all the fishermen. I just love walking around there and basking in the sun and seeing the beautiful weeping willows and grass! read more

Super nice park! Came here from phx to somewhat escape the July heat! Had been here before but not to the playground/splash pad. Took us a bit of driving as google maps was unclear on where to find the playground. It's a good sized playground with a nice splash pad. Perfect way for kids to cool off and my on had fun! It was a little crowded when we were here but I think there may have been a bday party going on. Would for sure come again. read more

I absolutely love this park. It's probably the best one in Payson. They have events in the summer such as movies and music in the park. They have events all throughout the year for family fun they have fishing events and four different types of fish in the lake. You can also use a boat if you want to go out further into the lake. It's a great place to walk your dog bird watch in a or just get some peace. There is also a nearby playground and museum nearby. It has plenty to do and I never get bored. Look for the bald Eagle to nest every spring is my favorite activity to do when I visit! read more

Pretty & clean park. I really like this park because of how open it is. You can walk around the lake, find a nice shade in the grass under a tree, fish, enjoy the playground and more. I'm visiting Payson for the day and I'm glad I stopped here. I came here with my dogs and love how dog friendly it is. Always remember to be nice to the geese! read more

Green Valley Park - Beautiful park in the heart of Payson good food nearby and lots of greenery! We saw a big bull elk and lots of birds! - Playgrounds Near Me - Payson, Arizona

What a beautiful park and definite favorite of locals and visitors. A lot of history with a museum on site, a few small lakes and plenty of walk ways to exercise, Roseville's etc and so many people enjoying the fishing. Multiple types of fish to catch. The park is well maintained and can easily spend hours if not all day here. So nice to see families enjoying the outdoors and no one on their phones. read more

The walk around the lake was clear of duck poop TODAY! This is an awesome little park. Yes the Zane Gray replica cabin and small history museums are here but this fishing lake is only 0.6 mile around so it's a nice leg stretch if you're just driving thru town. See picture of the BLUE HERON very close to the fisherman? The guy said the other day three big elk came and laid down under a tree and the bald eagle landed in the tree above them...talk about a photo op. We saw the bald eagle up in a tree and watched him swoop down and fish See the pic below where the eagle is just past the guy fishing. You'll see the eagles legs down for a catch There are also two smaller fishing lakes across the street. Yes of course they stock it. We didn't have time to take the guided tours today but will be back on Wednesday because THEY ARE CLOSED TUESDAYS. We will pay $4 per person which includes BOTH the 25 minute Zane Gray Cabin GUIDED tour and the 45 minute GUIDED tour of the other more historical museum. I will update this review after the tours. UPDATE. WE WENT TO SEE THE CABIN TOUR and it's cute but the real attraction here unless you are a Zane Gray fan is the lake! I am NOT a museum person unless the tours ARE guided! And these are small museums and we actually have read a Zane Gray novel although we are really hooked on Louis Lamour westerns. If you don't know which western to start with we suggest CONAGER. It's got all the great western stuff and a little romance on the side. My husband reads me westerns every night in bed! And YES we love the romance! If you have KIDS you MUST bring them to see the LITTLE OLD WOOD CABIN with dirt floor in the grass. See pics below. It is FREE! And PUSH THE BUTTON to listen to the story LOVE IT HERE! read more

This park is so nice! Nice lake, cute playground and spacious grassy areas to walk your dogs. There are geese and ducks that are really cute. The park is covered in all kinds of beautiful trees and wildlife. There are benches that were donated and a wonderful memorial for the troops throughout all of American history wars. A special tribute to each soldier who died and also the lost or missing in war. Very thoughtful and patriotic. The restrooms were actually very impressive. I walked in on a snowy day and was pleasantly surprised with a well lit, clean and warm facility. It is obvious they take pride here at Green Valley Park in Payson Arizona :) read more

Beautiful park in Payson! Whether you're into fishing or not, this park is perfect and is well maintained. It features a large walking path with areas you can fish and there's a jungle gym area as well for kids. The pathways are free of duck poop and we're really clean. The grass is gorgeous and was bright green. Definitely a great place to take a stroll! read more

We were hoping for a nice visit to the park and museum. Unfortunately there was a worker, driving all over in his gator vehicle, BLARING music. I would expect that from ignorant teenagers, but not form a worker tasked with keeping the park nice. Hopefully this is addressed at some point by management. read more

We stopped here to take a walk and were surprised that there wasn't a Yelp page for this park. I've included a few photos for this review; it rained the day before we visited so the playground was flooded. Overall it is a nice park, tons of ducks for the kids to chase, bathroom facilities and dog poop collection stations. There is also a bike rack, plenty of garbage cans, a few ramadas though, I didn't see any BBQ grills at any of them. There is a large green field to run or play games in and there is also a performing arts stage. You can fish here and parking isn't bad. Just across from the stage is the Payson Veterans Memorial. I will return when visiting Payson in the future. read more

Beautiful park with tons of parking at the end of Historic Main Street. I heard the park is going to have a splash pad next year so that is great! We enjoyed music in the park and the many grassy places to set up a picnic and run around. I do wish they had some kind of ice cream parlor or pizza parlor bear by. That would be perfect! The views are also beautiful. read more

This park is so nice! The a lake, a playground, and there's always something entertaining going on there. They have a summer concert series, and on Saturday nights you can head down to the park for live music and yummy vendor food. read more

This is a great place to take your friends, family, Church Group, or even a date! It's got three awesome lakes that you can boat in or fish, and a great trail for you to jog on. There is also a museum near by, and a playground for the little ones to play on. One part of the park is built on a hill, so in the winter when it snows, you can sled down it. There is also a stage that bands play on during the summer! The only thing that creeps me out is the signs around the lake that says, "water comes from reclaimed sources." Other than that, I really enjoy green valley park and have been going to this spot for many years now. It's beautiful. read more

A wonderful place to walk and relax. Kids love the little hill when it snows. Payson is lucky to have such a nice park.

You have a 99.99% chance of stepping in duck poop here. The park is beautiful, with lots of green grass, but unfortunately, you can't walk on it or let your kids play on it. It's completely covered in poop. read more
