Good playground equipment that includes a playscape for younger toddlers. No canopy though so scorching on a hot day. That being said, there are shady areas in the park (saw a few families having picnics). The adjacent creek is nice. There's a little trail alongside it. Turn left (from playground) and you can see the famous Round Rock (just under the bridge). Turn right and you pass a war memorial and soon make it to the spiral (a spiral walking ramp that apparently offers nice views of the creek). It was super hot so we skipped the spiral. The thing that bothered me about this park -- there are lots of blank rusted signs. Were they ever in use or were they never completed? I was just confused by their presence. On top of that, I would have liked to see some actual signs. There were a few by the entrance of the park noting the location of the Round Rock, spiral, etc. But if entering the trail from the playground, you don't see any of this info. There's no sign by the Round Rock about its history and no sign by the tree sculpture by the spiral (at least credit the artist). Large parking area.

This is a nice little neighborhood park that sits directly on Falcon Pointe Blvd. There is no…read moreparking lot so you'll have to actually park on the street. It is surrounded by plenty of green space, trees and includes a frisbee golf park. The park is actually divided into two sections along Falconpointe Boulevard. At one location there are six picnic tables, four grills and six benches. There is a well designed Playscape with swings. An added bonus is the hike and bike path that runs throughout the large green space and the neighborhood. I was surprised to find a small T-ball field next to the park. At the other location just 200 to 300 yards away you'll find an outdoor gym area and additional covered picnic tables along with a nice small lake area with a fountain. The nice thing about this park is that you do not have to be a member of the falcon pointe homeowners association to enjoy this park. The photographs included in this review add to the story.

Right in the middle of the Creekside neighborhood, is this cute, accessible, well-maintained…read moreplayground. It includes a smaller one playscape (toddlers) and one for the somewhat bigger kids (4-12). It has mulch on the ground, and is bordered with a cement lining to contain the mulch, is my guess. It's so thoughtful to find 1 special swing amongst 3 other plain swings, one that you can safely secure and have the child experience swinging also. Not one for the very littles, but one with a disability. I believe it says for 5-12 years old. Close to the smaller playscape is a xylophone, and we were pleased with a play by a random biker who stopped there to play. On Settlers Valley, I see people park their car along the road by the mailboxes. And there is a little path that leads to the playground, but then it ends there. You'll have to go around the grass, or cross the mulch in order to enter the trail that is in the back and goes around the neighborhood. I've biked that trail and it's a cute well-maintained trail. It's not our neighborhood, but I'm glad to find this close to home.

This is probably the only park where I have seen four musical instruments integrated into the playscape. I was surprised to find they have a very rich sound. The only thing lacking besides a pool, is the fact that there are no public bathrooms at either park or along the trail. Definitely a great spot to bring the kids or take a hike or bike ride.

As a private park it is very clean and well looked after with the paths looking fresh and the overall aesthetic of the park looking much more groomed than many other trails in Austin.

Lining the trail are different areas to do workouts which is nice to see and there are also sporting areas at the community center as well. The foliage looked great and the rest of the open areas seemed well put together. This is definitely a fantastic park to walk through with family, friends, or dogs if you're in the area.

TLDR: Surprisingly spacious park with a playground with limited range (not ideal for really young…read morekids). Small canopies provide some shade. First of all, it appears the playground has been redone. There are photos here from a few years ago -- looks completely different now. In most cases, these are clear upgrades but I'm not so sure here. The old playground looks pretty nice -- with more equipment for younger toddlers. Why they chose to redo it is a mystery. The current playground equipment is decent with some nice climbing options. It's a little awkward for grown-ups to access (when accompanying really small toddlers who can fall off) since the steps can only be reached via tunnel. So if your young toddler climbs up, you either have to go through the tunnel or climb up some of the ladders. Not a huge deal although if you're an elderly caretaker, take note. The playground does have two small canopies that offer partial shade. One of the biggest deficiencies is the swings. Only two belt swings for older kids. No bucket swings for younger toddlers or babies. Oddly, the pics of the old playground show baby swings -- why did they get rid of them? Weird. There's quite a bit of space like I previously mentioned but I'm not sure if it's being utilized well. There's a small gazebo but it seems a bit pointless. There's nothing in it (no seating) so it looks like a bus stop. I wish they made it into more of a pavilion with benches (there's space). Ultimately, a decent park especially since Georgetown is a bit lacking in playgrounds (when compared to Round Rock especially).

Nice park nestled in a residential neighborhood. The playground equipment is pretty basic. There is some equipment for young toddlers (2) such as a little slide and a simple climbing wall but that's about it. The swings are straightforward as well -- bucket and belt style. What makes this playground stand out is the impressive canopy. While most playgrounds have small canopies covering individual sections, this one has a giant canopy that covers everything. There are also a lot of trees around it so there's ample shade. There is a lot of green space around the park which is nice. Just be careful for new and wobbly walkers since it's very rocky. Short walking trail that loops around. Picnic tables.
