I enjoyed my time at this park and it was a nice place to wind down after a long work day. I am sure that the neighborhood residents enjoy this park and many great memories will be forged here. We as a part of a community need parks. A place where we can gather together in rest and recreation. A place we can get together and just forget the stress of the world's grind.

There are walking trails that go through the woods, an off-leash dog area, and multiple mixed-use sportsball/athletic fields. On hot days, the splash pad area is the place to be, making for a safe space for kids and families to cool off and enjoy the sun. The frisbee disc golf course is one of the real hooks to the park, nicely laid out and maintained, and providing differing levels of challenge. Public restrooms are all around, the playground and splash pad area have soft landing spots, and it is generally well lit and safe all through the park. There are even several canopy areas with tables, allowing for picnics or other gathering use and mostly just to get out of the Alabama sun. Get out and enjoy the greenspace, Mobile, it's a beautiful place.

There is a small gymnasium for gymnastics in the MAWSS water tower. Parking is decent, but I have never visited on game days. ALOT of people walking and running. Park is open from dawn to dusk like all other parks in Mobile. The playground is the best of all the parks in my opinion. It is fairly busy, but not so much that would make you visit elsewhere.

Because it is right in the middle of a very large neighborhood a lot of people just walked to the dog park. But there are parking lots at either end. The dog park is just a big fenced-off Square except for the fact that they brought the fence line in and around the two big trees that should be inside the dog park. But on both sides they literally took the fence line in about 10-12 ft and then back out so that the tree was on the outside of the dog park? Because trees are scary to dogs like that? There is a very nice water feature and a poop bag dispenser and trash can. There's also a very nice light post right in the middle of a dog park as well as a couple benches for you to sit on. But other than that there's nothing but wide open space for your puppy to run and enjoy itself

This would be an awesome place to stop if you are traveling with dogs and kids. There is only one dog Park for both small and large dogs, very clean. The playground equipment appears new. Single basketball court, four tennis courts, football field, baseball field. There are bleachers, restrooms, and a concession stand at the baseball and football fields. Two parking lots, one by dog park, one by football & baseball field. FYI THIS PARK IS DIRECTLY NEXT TO MAGNOLIA CEMETERY, WHICH EXPLAINS WHY IT IS SO QUIET & SECLUDED. That is the only negative thing I can say about the park, the Cemetary, but other then that this park is fantastic.

There is a very nice double gated concrete entry area and quite a few old growth trees. And it's a nice walk through the park past the children's playground to get there

There are two or three baseball diamonds that have bleachers, a concession stand, and a restroom. Walking Trail that connects from the ballpark to the playground. Open area with some oak trees. I would say a medium sized parking lot. There are mobile homes surrounding this park in both good and bad condition, not too many fences, it is a rural area. I only saw one guy on the walking path, a girl and her boyfriend in a car, then a van full of kids from a local Baptist Church running to the playground. Everyone I encountered was nice and friendly. The grass was a little long, but only because Southwest Alabama has storms everyday for over a week followed by ninety degree heat, but at least this park was not muddy. The restrooms were clean and there were at least three drinking fountains near the concession area. I also saw a bird, I think it was a crane, walking around.

This is a nice park with benches, paved walkways, a live oak and Spanish moss canopy (reminds me of Hilton Head Island and Savannah), and a picturesque centerpiece fountain with lanterns.

As we walked through the park, I noticed a sign stating that we were on Mobile, Alabama's official Azalea Trail. Cool.

There were benches to take a break, eat lunch or just enjoy the shade of the beautiful oak trees on a warm summer day. There was a kid splashing around in the fountains so, it seemed that you were allowed to cool off in them. A nice little oasis among the shops, restaurants and downtown area that you can tell the city takes pride in from the beautiful flowers and well kept grassy area. I wish more cities would have such nice spaces to sit and relax like this city does.

Cathedral Square is a municipal park - It is bordered by the streets of North Claiborne, Dauphin, North Jackson, and Conti. A little history, This space, at one time, was Campo Santo - which was Mobile's Catholic cemetery (18th Century). The area that is now Cathedral Square quickly became a commercial block filled with buildings after the relocation of the cemetery. The buildings were then demolished in 1979 to create a public park facing the Cathedral. The current park and layout have been here for some time now. There were a few people here, as it was starting to warm up quite a bit and it didn't take too long to get pretty hot (really humid). But if you are going to check out the Cathedral - then this is a nice little green space to see it from and get some pretty cool pictures of the Cathedral.
