It's pleasant enough, but the modest distance is irritating, particularly in light of the longer greenway trail just north of here on the same creek. It would be much better if the park linked up with the larger trail system, but for some reason it does not, meaning the park is limited in scope.

I love this park!

The wildlife is abundant here also - I've seen deer, turtles, and various birds here. I haven't seen a nope rope yet, but I'm sure I just jinxed myself because I hate snakes and saying stuff like that seems to speak it into existence. Since it is a small park, it can be a little busy when the weather is really nice. The trail around the park is perfect to use for 5k training. Drop on in when you need a brief commune with nature!

This particular bit of park is not on the waterfront and is not that aesthetically distinctive, but it is connected with the greenway trail that goes to several useful places, as well as being next to a sporting venue. Plenty of people were roaming through.

One can walk a substantial distance in either direction and be treated to canal views and river views. Notably, a waterfall and pond running off of the canal are near here.

The facility here is pretty nice too, with basketball courts, bathrooms, water fountains and I believe they evens have some vending machines the last time I was there. Getting to the park is fairly easy too, as there are two entrances to two different parking lots. The park is close by the Columbia County Fairgrounds too. I'd highly recommend making an outing here!

I expect it would be better if you could take a boat or something to get a closer look. Various other trails run through the forest, but predictably the amount of flying insects was high so I didn't spend a ton of time. There was a cost to park, which would be more worth it if one spent the day.

It is a larger park, taking up a full city block in this mostly residential neighborhood. Open from sunrise to sunset, the park features a lighted basketball court, two lighted tennis courts, a large picnic shelter that has grills and a water fountain, a quarter-mile walking track and a playground. The playground is quite large and is on a sand base. Swing set, climbing frame, monkey bars. All the stuff you need for your toddlers to burn off some energy. There is street parking.

The park staff were some of the best I have come across. They were super focused on letting us know what had changed in the park vs the map.

The new beach trail didn't put you on the beach, but definitely near the water. Lots of elevation changes, so be ready for a moderate level hike.
