    This review is actually for the ice skating rink inside the park…read more It is an outdoor skating rink so make sure you dress warm. The prices are affordable con paired to other ice skating rinks in New York. Rink access is $6 for town of oyster bay and $9 the public. Skate rentals are $5 each. My children don't have much experience with ice skating so having guides would have been helpful. Unfortunately, they do not have an available to rent here. Skate service is quick, they have ample staff to make sure check in and skate pick up is seamless. The rink attendants do a good job of checking on kids when they fall and making sure they're okay and not hurt. The concession stand offers hot chocolate and snacks. We definitely enjoyed hot chocolate after spending an hour on the ice. I enjoyed the cookie dough hot chocolate and cannolis. My kids had the peppermint and gingerbread hot chocolate. We also enjoyed the real wood fireplace to get cozy and warm. Definitely will come back!

    I've been to Massapequa Preserve 4 times already. Once on a partial hike, one for the full 6 mile…read moretrail hike and once to run on the trail. I would like to go back again to run on the massapequa park part of the trail. The first time I went I was still with my ex-husband and we went to spend time with mutual friends and we took both our sons into the massapequa preserve. During that time I think we went into the more woodsy part of the preserve. The bike path is 6 miles (3 miles one way, 3 miles back). When I took my hike on it I was dissapointed because when I hike I don't appreciate paved trails I'd rather feel more woods and roots under my hiking shoes. But to bike on this trail or run on this trail with road running shoes the pavement is pretty nice. There's still sections where you can get lost in nature which is always a favorite part of a trail run or hike for me.

    This beautiful water infused park would easily get 4 stars except for one thing - bikers. I will…read morenot frequent the paved part of the park, due to the danger of being run over by somebody on a high speed bike zooming past with his head down. On the other hand, there is a parallel dirt path that is not as scenic but far safer. Both of the times I went there in 2020 I ran across an old man with 3 friendly dogs. Their overall appearance reminds me of a famous character in Steinbeck's Tortilla Flat. At the end of Jerusalem Road, there is a housing area with plenty of parking. As for the main problem, I suggest that the Parks Department look into creating a pedestrian-only area.

    Very nice park out on Lawn Guyland. Easy to get to off the LIE. Plenty of parking with bathrooms…read morelocated right next to get parking lot. I've only been here once, a few weeks ago, to run in a socially distanced Turkey Trot 5K. It was more of a trail run which offered some nice views and terrain to run on. Plenty of paths to run or bicycle on. Trail running seems to be big here with many routes through the wooded areas. Can't say much more since I left after I got my finisher medal and went home. It was Thanksgiving and I had to get ready to feast!

It is a lovely way to spend an afternoon. Two hours are enough to experience it all. There is a splash water park with many slides, a refreshment stand with good snacks, a botanical garden, a walking trail with several benches, a gazebo with a bench underneath, and plenty of good spots to picnic. Today I saw several banana trees, a teenage girl posing for photos in her sweet 16 ball gown, a protective swan father guarding his two cygnets and life partner, an amateur fisherman doing a catch and release although fishing is forbidden in the lake, and some youths joyfully playing soccer on the grass. A local resident told me that last Fall he even saw a baby fox wandering around. Geiger Park is a must visit for those who admire nature and seek adventure. It is also a great date spot. Staff is friendly and welcoming. Today, one staff member offered me a free potted Zinnia plant, but I politely declined.
