Such a wonderful park. There is a little bit of something for everyone. Sports fields, playground,…read morewalking/hiking trails, picnic shelters, disc golf and lakes. Grounds are well kept. Fishing is a popular activity at this park. We did not catch anything. People around us (socially distanced,) had much better luck. Signs indicate restrictions on how much of each species of fish a person is allowed to keep. The other lake is more of a wetland area, and more of a walk from the parking lot. I'm not sure if fishing is allowed there. A paved walking path snakes around the lake, allowing for beautiful views your whole walk. The clouds picturesquely reflect off of the water. Mature trees keep walkers cool. Benches are available to enjoy the scenic views. Path itself is wide. It is an easy walk. I like that the playground and sports field are a bit separated. It keeps the lake a peaceful place. Parking for the two areas is a bit seperate as well. There are a series different terrain trails. These are paved, gravel and natural trails. I for one look forward to exploring this peach of a park more. Our visit barely scratched the surface of what Alexandria Community Park has to offer.

Withrow Nature Preserve is a good place for exercise and hiking. It has several miles of trails…read morelooping around the park. The trails are marked with interesting facts about wildlife. It's not too grueling, if you want to walk all of it. The park has a spot overlooking the Ohio River. It has signs directing you from the 275 exit. It's very helpful. The park is located along Five Mile Road. It has a good size parking lot at the entrance. There usually is more than enough room. At the beginning of the trails is the Withrow home. This is the only location of bathrooms in the park. It has a couple trails through the woods that each loop around. The better one is the Trout Lily Trail. It's a couple of miles to walk all of it. The best part is the overlook of the Ohio River. It has a small clearing with some benches. The view isn't great because it's far away, but you can still see parts of the river. If you're in Anderson Township and have a few hours for walking, this is the best place for it. It could use some more bathrooms. There's a few located at the Withrow home, so go before you hit the trails.

I have been eager to get to this park for a while and finally explored it by myself the other day…read more If you want a nice field to picnic in, if you want to do some hiking, if you want a creek, this is the place to be. There was a group of kids that was having a great time walking in the creek. While there is a path right next to the creek, if you have shoes that are good with water, I say just go and walk right in the creek. It's a little under a mile long and you can see little fish, I've heard you might be able to spot a turtle, and I saw a snake! There are other trails that veer off from the creek and there's a good amount of up and down. There are swings and a big shelter with picnic tables scattered around.

When I'm into Pokemon go, I drive around in circles spinning poke-stops and doing gym battles. That is when I would go most often. There are nice trails to walk. For the kiddos, there are multiple playgrounds, a basketball card, baseball fields, and shelters you can rent for parties. The best part of this park though is the creek. We have fun in the creek when it's warm. My kids love catching crawdads when it's warm out. I loved it as a kid too. I still have fun, especially watching them and how happy they are. Pictures will always be great memories. The only bad thing about this park, is that they took out the dog park! The dog park was so nice. There was a section for small dogs, and a section for large dogs. My dog had fun and so did I. I loved getting to play with everyone else's dogs. It was also great that it was so close to the Kenton county animal shelter. I hope they bring it back someday.

Nice park off of Madison Pike. The river along the trail is the big draw. There are a few areas…read morethat visitors may go down by the water. We saw a family playing in the water. I photographer was also crouched down in the water. He taking pictures of the geese with their goslings. There were quite a few birds at this park. We also saw finches, and black birds with bright orange wings. The trails are paved. There is a layer of fine sand that covers much of the trail on the side across from parking. The trail is pretty level on the parking side. There is a playground, but we did not venture over to it. There once was a dog park here. A sign indicates that the park was closed "due to reoccuring damage." The sign also states that they are looking for an alternate location for the Paw Park. Rigt now thw area is a giant field. Dogs must be on a leash at this park. Many people were there with their dogs, including us. When passing eachother, people were using good doggie etiquette. People were picking up after their dogs as well. I took away a star due to the amount of trash. There were a couple of used diapers, cups, many cigarette butts and feminine hygiene products. These were more on the parking side, and many were near the water. Across the river was much cleaner.

There is a walking path that goes around the two fields that has a one quarter mile marker, so it's easy to keep track of how far you've walked. The playground area is small but it's very unique. One part looks like a tree house with a giant spider web to climb around on in the back. I liked the slides, which started at the top of a hill and went down the hillside to the bottom with a rope ladder to climb back up to the top. My boyfriend and I had fun playing here. There is also a nice pavilion with picnic tables and a basketball hoop. If you're looking for a change of scenery, come up for a visit. A great park overall.

One of the things that makes Anderson Township so family friendly is it's neighborhood parks. These…read moreparks are well themed, and have a selection of play areas. Juilfs Park is one the township's finest. There are play structures for ages ranging from 2-12 years old. Most of the structures are farm themed. There are themed ways to climb that I have yet to see before. One of the structures has a section where children may stop, and learn about preditor animals. There are buttons to be pushed. Upon doing so, a recording plays with the information. There is a large sandbox that is covered by a sunshade. The toddler play area is covered with a sunshade as well. The large play structure, water play area and swings are not covered. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, a water play area is active. This one is farm themed to match the play structure. The water turns on after 10am. Water is turned off towards the end of the day. Not interested in play structures? No problem. Juilfs Park has a paved walking trail, covered picnic areas, soccer field and baseball field. There are also various "porch swings" around the park. Juilfs Park follows a new trend when it comes to dogs. While dogs are allowed at the park, they are not allowed on or around the play structures. This is for the health and safety of all.

We took advantage of the paved 1mi trail, which was nice because from all the snow melting the grass was muddy. All along the trail were benches if you wish to take a rest, and doggy bag stations with trash cans. The park has plenty of parking, a really nice play ground, tennis courts, and more. It seemed clean and well kept. Despite being fairly busy, it still felt like there was plenty of room to enjoy yourself. As we were leaving the parks dept was putting up a Go Bengals sign, which I loved! Really shows community spirit!
