Cascades Park is not your typical neighborhood patch of Earth; yes it has a baseball diamond &…read moreshelter house, but if offers so much more. In very congested surroundings, this cute little park offers an educational experience as well as pleasurable. Here you will find tree plaques throughout the trail that inform you about the local species. There is also a number of exercise stations, generous playground, a small fraction of ledges hugging a tiny stream and an adorable butterfly garden! With two trails to choose from, you think it would be impossible to get lost. However, the old carved map is slightly misleading. Whichever trail you decide to explore you'll begin at the same starting point ;straight ahead you'll see a tiny wooden bridge- this path leads you wandering around...you cannot distinct between path & surroundings as nothing is marked. If you avoid this & veer to the right, one trail loops around the park while the other eventually takes you through a series of backyards & a golf course. Each trail is made up of twisting roots & tiny gravel so if you have a decent stroller (avoid the trail with a street name & take the loop only) you should be able to enjoy the park without any hiccups.

The baseball fields are nice and well maintained. One problem they need to fix that hasn't been fixed in decades is the lack of bathrooms close to the playground and ball fields.

The whole area is pretty wide open but spread out in a way that you can park-it, as an adult, and still keep an eye on the kiddos where ever they may be at the park. There are three covered picnic areas, some uncovered picnic tables under shaded trees, and plenty of benches to accommodate a wave of folks trying to enjoy what few sunny days we have here in the O-H to the I-O. As far as the play area, there is plenty of area for the kids to play including: two splash areas (one smaller, I think, for the smaller kiddos), two larger jungle gym/slides/climbing/etc areas, a swings area, and a music play area. All in all a great place to play outside throughout the year and even better during the summer months.

On trails I've seen birds of all different colors, eagle, deer, rabbits, fox, snakes, toads, butterflies, and owls. All wildlife seen are amazing! The trails are gravel and well maintained. There are two ways to access the beach and you are able to walk the length of it, swim, sit ect. Two Rentable campsites and 1 rentable pavilion with heat, water and bathrooms. There is also a separate restroom near the lookout tower. Trails I break down to four. A more open air one that can get hot if walking in the summer. A wooded one that is sheltered by trees, keeping you cooler. The beach trail and a smaller grass trail where you are likely to see butterflies and deer.
