I visited this park as part of the Mermaid Festival. By the…read moretime I arrived, there was no parking available at the park. It has a very accessible trail that is paved and allowed you to walk along the Hudson River. The trail was peppered with benches. I saw the lighthouse from afar. I didn't see anyone walking out to it, so I am assuming access was unavailable the day I was there. The restrooms weren't open. They provided port-o-potties. I'm not sure if it was as due to the festival or whether it was a common occurrence. There was also a nice children's play area. In order to give it a more representative review, I will have to return at a time when it is just serving as a park with no special events.

We headed to Saxon Woods Park Trail Head this Saturday morning and had a fantastic time!…read more It's a great spot for hikers of any level. I love that the trails are color-coded, which makes it easy to gauge the difficulty and mileage for each zone before you head out. The trails are very dog-friendly, which we really appreciated! While there is signage asking people to leash their dogs, we encountered a few people with dogs off-leash, and honestly, everyone was super friendly and respectful, which made for a great environment. One tip for fellow hikers: while there are maps and markers throughout the woods, they can be a little hard to spot or follow in certain sections. Since cell service can get pretty spotty out there, I'd highly recommend downloading your trail map beforehand just to be safe. Overall, it's a beautiful place to spend a morning--definitely worth checking out!

The place looks well maintained, with benches & gazebo. No parking in the park but we found empty spots on the streets. Lots of what looks like locals are walking their dogs. They don't look friendly, maybe they could tell we are not from there. I assume they are more strict during the warmer months. So if you are not from westchester like us, i recommend visiting in the winter or maybe fall.

Additionally, it's kept more private, but not there's not tons of eateries so you have to bring your own food, but the bathrooms are amazing. Kept beautifully clean with changing rooms galore. It's an easy walk to the beach plenty of parking outside and people do go to the park outside, so it's wonderful there as well. Life preserves are given freely to those who cannot swim and encouraged, which is totally a plus as well. We sat there on the beach, waiting for the tide to come in. Had our food played some games with their hours and everyone was pleasant and nice too that came around. I actually would like to do this next year. I'm sorry I found out about this place this year at the end of the summer.

Tibbetts Brooks Park is a nice park in Yonkers that features a few streams, walking trails and a…read moregreat bathhouse; though, I did not swim on this occasion. My church held its annual family day cookout on a beautiful Saturday morning and afternoon. The park ingress and egress demand good bus drivers at a few tight corners within and just outside the park. Tibbetts has plenty of parking to accommodate a large number of visitors and the bathhouse is as much a draw as the rest of the park. The pool features a few sections with different tiers outside the pool for lounging and families gathering. It's not all concrete, rather many of the lounge areas are covered in AstroTurf, which makes for a more relaxed and comfortable surface upon which to lay towels and blankets. The restrooms are kept clean, but they have a rather heavy duty check-in for access to the bathhouse. They are controlled by park employees and park police. The pool access fee is $12pp for non-Yonkers residents, even if you think you have a different understanding for group access. Many of our church members were turned away, unless they paid the individual fee. The park employees regularly removed the trash in the vicinity of our family day outing and wherever other groups gathered. They are setup well to handle large groups at Tibbetts Brooks Park. 3.8 stars!

Playground Review Only- Tibbetts Brook Park has so much potential, but the playground is badly…read moreoutdated and in serious need of renovation. The equipment is visibly old and deteriorating, with features that are broken, missing, rusting, or simply being closed off instead of replaced. One of the most obvious examples is a missing slide. The slide has been completely removed, with the concrete footing where it once ended still visible on the ground, while the elevated entrance to the slide has simply been blocked with a small metal barrier. Other play components are worn, faded, and incomplete. The condition of the equipment also goes beyond simply looking old. There is significant visible deterioration on the elevated metal platforms, including peeling and worn protective coating and exposed, rusted metal. These are surfaces children regularly walk on, climb over, and touch. Combined with the missing slide, blocked-off play features, deteriorated equipment, and inadequate ground covering, the playground gives the appearance of being maintained through temporary fixes rather than properly rehabilitated. The playground surface is another concern. Much of the area is bare, compacted dirt with very little wood-chip coverage, including underneath and around elevated play equipment. A children's playground should have adequately maintained protective surfacing, especially in areas where children could fall. This is a major Westchester County park in Yonkers that is heavily used by families, and the playground should reflect that. Removing equipment as it fails, blocking openings, and leaving the remaining aging structure in place is not a long-term solution. At this point, this playground needs more than cosmetic maintenance. Westchester County should conduct a comprehensive safety inspection and replace or fully rehabilitate the aging playground equipment and safety surfacing. Families and children using Tibbetts Brook Park deserve a playground that is safe, complete, modern, and properly maintained.
