As I'm kicking around in the daisy's, big dog has other ideas of a hoot and a holler. He jailbreaks at an unsuspecting hound, a sizable hound at that, tall leggy proportions, trim at the quarters -- thinner necked and bigger headed. Catastrophe averted somehow and the AstroTurf is the closest replica to real grass, stringy as this breed might be - which it is. Like Poa Anna turf that's prominent in Hawaii. And we continued on towards the main soccer field the grass field looked quite the same with exceptional bounce and spring, I felt the decathloner in me and bounced along to the other side. With it's understandably poor upkeep, ya know -- cutbacks, cutbacks, the park has a spirit to it, like a drunkard whose not been home for a day or so and is in bad need of a shower, a shave and a change of clothes.

There are huge enclosed fields, some with artificial turf for soccer. I saw people running track, exercising and walking their dogs. It is a Loop trail, I started at the parking lot and went around the front through the little walkway that leads to the fields. I let my dog into a giant field where the gat can be closed and let her run. Then we walked towards the water and you see a trail start. A little ominous on a cloudy day and not many people but we kept going. The trail goes along the water line. Carcasses of boats along the coast probably from Sandy but interesting to see. Trail loops back to the parking lot. Not a hike but a nice walk, we did 1.41 miles. The only thing I didn't like was not a bench anywhere along the trail. I have a dachshund that likes to sit on benches when she's getting tired. I have to say it's pretty clean! Olive usually finds every chicken bone or other garbage, she found none here so it was a good walk. I'm using bending down twenty times to pull something out of her mouth Nice place to exercise your dog in the field, clean, garbage cans along the trail. I'll be going back.

There is a small hill for kids to ride their scooters and bikes up and down the park. Park encircled the entrance way to BeltParkway and is a walking distance from and to the train station.

Especially in the sweltering heat, a shaded area would definitely be nice. Overall, a nice park

A full day of outdoor activities comprising from sea to land which includes kayaking and biking bring my travels to Bensonhurst Park in Brooklyn with a friend. A city operated park composing 17.50 acres which lack basic amenities as two water fountain exists where children hogged them to create mindless water balloons.

I was dying for a cool down from my near death experience of re-learning how to ride a bicycle after numerous fall crashes and sustained bruises.

Not sure on the field conditions but there are working water fountains in the dugouts. No bathroom is located at this park. The gem is the trail that borders the park. Great up close and personal views of Coney Island Creek. Various interesting wrecks provide a home for water life. From time to time fisherman or birdwatchers are around. There are homeless who occasional build tent like shelters. They never bothered me, sure does it take away form a picturesque view, yes. But this Americana at its finest, the good, bad and ugly.

The beach isn't maintained as well as Coney Island either. However, you can catch the beautiful sunset. There is also a pier for people to do fishing. I also saw people walk into the water to do fishing with a fishing pole or a net. There are some very tiny fishes that can be caught with net fishing. There are also some people who appear to be camping there. I wouldn't suggest going late in the evening since there are fewer people and it's a bit sketchier when it's dark.
