My complaints are the lack of restroom facilities, or rather open restroom facilities. There are bathrooms, but are closed and not serviced and the city has instead resorted to port-a-potties. The water fountains for drinking were shut off too. The tables there could use replacing and the children's play equipment in general seemed worn, but my kid especially liked the tire swing. If I was a dog owner, this place would be a better choice for me over other parks in the area.

Fourth of July…read more.. We've been coming to the spark for the Fourth of July fireworks near 20 years now. They always have some fun and festivities in the park during the day. Usually live music, or broadcast radio station from inside the park. We back up to the main road, get out our chairs, and wait for sundown. Our routine usually includes making some fried chicken and potato salad and going to the lake or the river. Spend a few hours there and then head to Fernley. It is absolutely one of the best firework shows around. Not sure if it's just a holiday, but we always meet people in make friends while we wait for the show. I see they have other events here through the year, but definitely if you have not tried, come watch the fireworks on Fourth of July.

I do not like giving bad reviews. But this is a terrible park. It is being allowed to be overrun by…read moreweeds. Not just in the grass but causing many serious tripping hazards all around. This is a shame. The weeds are causing the blacktop path to crumble. NO trees. NO shade. It does have the exercise stations the other reviewer mentions but they are poorly placed. They are not conveniently placed along the walking path. We walked .36 mile. It's probably a little longer if you can figure out how to get to the exercise stations. Poorly designed and worst maintenance EVER.

This was one of our go-to parks when we lived in the area…read more There are bathrooms (locked during the colder months). A walking trail with work out stations all around it. The QR Codes are no longer functioning so don't try and scan the workout info on your phone. There is swings and a large play structure. If you have kids that are little make sure to watch them as the space between the bottom of the slide and the ground is quite large and they may get hurt. There is a picnic area, basketball court and a place to set up a game of horseshoes. We will visit this park again the next time we are in town and in the area.

This is my second visit here. Photos are from that previous visit…read more This is a bit off the beaten path, but is very much following the winding road to get to it. There is plenty of parking, bathrooms and paths and signage to help you find your way. There is a primary dirt path that makes a large mile long loop through the main park area. The history of the area is very interesting. During the week, you feel like you have the park to yourself. I imagine it gets quite busy during the summer and on weekends. A very nice park, free admission (your tax dollars at work) spectacular views of the mountains, and a great way to learn about the history of the area.

I have so many fond memories of being here with my folks in my younger years. It was so nostalgic…read morevisiting last week. Water levels are lower than I remember, but it was nice to take a trip down memory lane. Every Summer, my parents drove their RV and I watched from the top bunk. My brothers and I could never stay in our seats. My parents never knew what we were up to. We always booked the same block of camping sites and we invited three other family's every year. The old tires swings on the cottonwood trees were always a hit with us kids and staying up late catching June bugs, telling scary stories around a campfire and roasting marshmallows for smores. It was cool showing my kids where my parents brought us camping.

Decided to take the teenagers to the lake after the wrestling tournament. Although it's a bit…read morechilly today, after a full day of wrestling somehow the kids found a way to get in the water. It's freezing for me so no thank you LOL. We have been camping at this lake for about 15 years now. There are many ways to camp here. There are tons of beaches that you could just Camp with tents or trailers/RV right on the beach or they have some improved camp sites with designated camping spaces. The price is around $8 a night. The first time we came here, it was completely flooded out. We stayed in the improved campgrounds, and over a few days the water came all the way up to our trailer and about a week later it was completely covering the trailer tires. After a year or two, the water level started to recede, and the lake seemed to be drying up. And after a few years we saw a pattern of flooding and then drying up. We tend to camp at this lake mostly when it is flooded. The water seems much cleaner, and there's so much more of it LOL.

I'm also traveling from Salt Lake City, UT to Sacramento, CA and there's a ton of rest stops in between. It was getting dark and cold, but there's plenty of signs to show where dogs are allowed and not allowed, but they're should be more signs to pick up after them. Then again, pet owners should know better (face palm). Pretty small area, but enough to make a quick pit stop and go head into The biggest little city of Nevada.

If has covered picnic benches, mature trees and a nice park atmosphere. The restrooms are real flush toilets and are kept reasonably clean for public toilets - in the women's side anyway. I can't comment on the men's. There is also a pet relief area away from the park and picnic area. It is part of the California Trail and there is a marker and information about the trail so you can take a rest, stretch your legs, and get a bit of American History. We zip along at 70 MPH along the same route that the California Pioneers travelled by covered wagon in the mid-1800's. In so many ways, this is a pretty cool place to stop. Worth a 5 minute stop on your travels west.

My 300th review!!!…read more Water in the middle of the desert? No, wait, a wetland habitat in the middle of the desert? This must be a mirage! Nope, if you've found your way out to Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge, that's definitely water you're seeing, along with all sorts of shorebirds, herons, egrets, ducks, owls, hawks and other wildlife coming in for a bit of respite from the harsh environment around it. With most of these types of areas, my first question is always about the quality of the roads used to get around. The roads are all gravel once inside the refuge, but I can tell you that at Stillwater, in dry conditions, a car is perfectly fine. There are no dips or divots in the road a car can't handle, and definitely no clearance issues. Even when the roads are wet, there really isn't an issue. As a national refuge, this is a federally managed wetland project designed to provide habitat and attract and sustain wetland species in Northern Nevada. For birdwatchers, this place can be paradise, with several species calling the area home. The refuge has a great walking trails that take you into some unique habitat, and give you opportunities to see the diversity of wildlife in the area. I've seen all sorts of birds, as well as deer, coyotes, and more. If you have a non-motorized boat, paddling through some of the larger ponds can be a great way to spend an afternoon. They even have overnight campgrounds that are suitable for tents or RVs. I've been coming to Stillwater for the past few years, and with the drought conditions throughout the state, this place has definitely suffered. To put it in perspective, last year there were 3 large areas holding water, and in 2014 they're down to one. I'm hopeful we have a great winter that brings a lot of precipitation that will help replenish our water supply. We all know we need it!

We went in November of 2006…read more We saw ducks, blue heron and other waterfowl. We even saw a few birds of prey. If you are into desert landscapes, and wetlands this is a great mix. I prefer lots of trees myself, of which there were very few. However it was VERY beautiful and we did enjoy it. There was also a wildlife viewing platform that allowed you to look out on the marshes. The bathrooms were impeccable for the "porta-potty/outhouse" type that most parks have. Talk about clean! wow! It wasn't to terribly hot in November when we went but PLEASE bring water with you, you'll want it. A jacket too if it's in the Winter months.
