I grew up visiting the park pretty often (attending summer camps and some of the classes offer…read morethroughout the year). I was always able to take public transit there or get my parents to drive me. It's a large park to have a stroll, picnic or to play in the playground. It was a lot of fun being there. I would be surprised and forget how big it was just cause I didn't always have the opportunity to explore the park. Also, I remember a time where people were able to fly kites till it was banned. I don't know if they still do fireworks. For a time, the park would arrange fireworks on Canada Day and a lot of people would attend. During events like this, people would park at the Alton Towers plaza, walked or transit there because parking was limited. Local high school students would do their volunteer hours at the community center on the park. I think they need to apply online through the main city website (if memory serves me correctly).

Some decent hills for toboganning in the winter too! Nice shady areas and a number of gazebos availble for private picnics (must reserve spot with city to obtain permit). Well maintained garden area thats beautifu in the summer. Short trail with nice views of the foliage in the fall. A great park to visit during all seasons. Very lively place. People there at all times of the day even on weekdays but never felt like its too crowded. Plenty of space for all to enjoy. Lots of parking. Ice cream truck is often in the lot by the playground selling the usual overpriced items. There is a washroom onsite.

LOL - I can't believe I've never written a review for this park that is literally in my backyard!…read more I've been going to Sunnybrook since I was a kid - my dad used to play cricket here with his work friends on the weekdays and I would have to come along and just chill in the park. The main entrance (for cars) is Leslie St (Leslie and Eglinton) and there are many parking lots as you drive though and many off side parking on the "street". This park goes on forever, so just keep driving through until you find a spot that you want to stop at. Some areas are smaller than others, but as you continue to move further into the park, you'll come across wide open fields where they play all the sports (cricket, soccer, baseball, etc) There are SOME grills here (although not sure if they were removed due to COVID), so definitely bring your own. You'll find plenty of open and/or shaded areas to enjoy a picnic or a snooze :) You can also bike in here and take a stroll among the many trails. Also, the Toronto Botanical Gardens and Edwards Gardens have a trail that lead right into Sunnybrook - sometimes it's nice to park a the Gardens, and walk into the park for lovely views. There used to be a horse barn/stables/horse riding in the middle of the park, but unfortunately a few years ago it burned down to to some people having a fireworks party (or prank - not sure which ) close to the stables. Very sad. There are washrooms located here (the main one being around parking lots 6-8) and it is clean (as far as park bathrooms go) I come here fairly often in the summer to have a quiet picnic and just relax. Truly one of the great things to do on a day off.

So good to be back!!!…read more After missing out on this festival last year due to the pandemic and other events we finally made it back this year to the Unionville Festival. This year it was held on June 4th and was a special event for us as it was my daughter's birthday as well. When I asked her what she wanted for her birthday this year, she said she wanted to go to the Unionville Festival, so off we went. The Unionville Festival is an annual event hosted by the Unionville BIA. For more info, you can look them up at https://unionvilleinfo.com. Almost all of the businesses on Main Street Unionville offer something for families to do. The stores and restaurants are open, and some companies have booths or offer street food. It's also attended by several other vendors from the Markham area. There is much for kids to do as some of the locations have children's activities. The Varley Gallery had art-related activities for the kids. For grown-ups, there is a beer tent, and of course, the restaurant, bars and patios are open if you're looking for an 'adult' drink. Many of the shops are open for shopping and there are street vendors too. This is only a one-day festival but there is enough for two days. We had a great time as we ran into many people we knew, had some street food, and the kids had fun at the Fred Varley Gallery, we had dinner at the Old Country Inn, which doubled as one of the beer tents. It was a good day for us, as we shopped, we ate, we ran into friends and had a great time. Check out this once-a-year event for yourself.

To my knowledge, the number of vendors are increasing dramatically every year. Happening at Main Street Unionville, this festival is good for everyone and anyone. From bars, to family friendly restaurants AND cute little patios, there is something to do for everyone. Main Street Unionville is closed off for this festival all weekend so you can literally walk around this beautiful section of Markham while getting to know/enjoy different local businesses. The Opening Parade was also awesome! There was a lot of different cultural representations alongside great music. After the Parade there were a few entertaining performances that occurred at Carlton and Main Street. The festival was a lot fun and I really enjoyed the street musicians jamming out. Will definitely come back next year :)

How did I not know about this hidden gem? A family friend told me to visit, and we did! Parking…read morewas plentiful and free! I would highly suggest to the City, that signs be posted on how to actually get to the waterfront! After parking, the washrooms are to your right, and there seems to be a small walking trail to the left. So, which way to go? We ended up going left, which led us nowhere after a few minutes, but no problem we just backtracked. To the RIGHT, keep walking, and you will see a small underpass, take that and keep walking .... to the waterfront, and a bike trail. We took a ton of photos, and I always feel like I'm on vacation when I'm next to the water! Suggestions: 1. Take and wear sunscreen and a hat 2. Bring a water bottle, there are no stores in the immediate area 3. Bring insect repellent, there are a lot of flies and mosquitoes 4. Wear comfortable shoes 5. I didn't see any picnic tables, except near the entrance, so if you want to eat, you can do so before or after

The location has shaded areas around the building and Astro turf. If you can't find parking, go park at the mall and walk it. The location is accessible, with ramps for strollers. I've been at this location as a volunteer, as an award recipient and a regular patron enjoying events. It's a great location for events with many ways to "exit" a crowded area. This location is stroller and wheel chair friendly.

They are really popular and busy (especially in the summer). Parking is shared with Square One and residential/corporate buildings. It might be hard to find for the most part. Some of parking (by residential/corporate buildings) aren't free or have some kind of restrictions. If you don't to use the parking lots, I would suggest using public transit, car pooling or parking nearby and walking over. The skating rink was a pleasant surprise to me. I didn't realize that there was one up till a few years ago. High school students can get their some of their volunteer hours at events. They just need to apply and fill out a form through the city site.

I've brought my nieces here and I don't know what it is but man, the mommies stick together like the Babysitter's Club or something. I got snubbed by the yummy mommies! THE GOODS Relaxed. Amenities: An off leash dog area south near Withrow; a soccer field and baseball diamond; a hockey/skating rink in the winter; playground; wading pool and a tennis court. They also have a farmer's market in the summer and sometimes they have Shakespeare or plays in the park. Riverdale Perk is right at the bottom of the park. A lovely addition to the neighbourhood.

I love that there are even reviews on parks on this site! Ha! I'm totally in!…read moreI moved to this area a couple of weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised to learn that there are THREE parks super close to me - ALL with skating rinks! Yay!! So, pointing out right now, that it's December and I've only gone to this park for skating. As such this review is a bit limited. The park isn't huge, but it's a decent size with a good off-leash dog area. The rink isn't huge, but is a good size. They have pretty decent hours for general "pleasure" skating (no hockey allowed!) and tons of hours for "shinny" (pick-up hockey). There is an indoor changing area and washrooms. You need your own skates - no rentals available. It's amazing to have a skating rink in the neighbourhood! I can't wait to go back!

I'd imagine if you're early enough you'd be able to find a spot at the park but otherwise it'll be a little more difficult. I saw lots of people waking from their homes, some parked on side streets in neighbourhoods, some on lawns of nearby establishments and a lot parked in plazas a short distance away. Just after 10 pm and still no fireworks. Everyone standing and sitting where I was saw the fireworks down the street. I contemplated finding out where those were seeing as nothing was happening here. An announcement was made and they had some technical difficulties but would start in several minutes. Once the fireworks started I thought it was good that I decided to stay and watch the ones here instead. They went on for quite a while. Perhaps 20-30 minutes or even longer. Once they had started cars driving by stopped to enjoy the fireworks as well. You'll need lots of patience when it's over and everyone wants to leave at the same time. It was such a backlog of vehicles all trying to leave the plaza at the same time. If I'm able to I'd like to attend more of the event next year.
