The playground is the same playground found at several other parks in Sparks. There is a large play structure and a small play structure. Wood chips are underneath the playground. There are no swings at this park. The park was clean but the parking lot was surprisingly dirty. There was a lot of trash on the ground. I did not see any homeless people at this park even though they seem to be occupying every other park in this area. Have fun out there. -Dadzone

To be honest, this is not a great park. It's hidden, there aren't any tables, the trails need a lot…read moreof work, and it can be muddy and full of shrubs. I happened to come across this park while biking at Mayberry Park / in the area. I thought the parks would connect, but they don't. So I spent a little time looking for it. Once I got there, I was quite underwhelmed. There is a parking lot for about 5 or 6 cars, so that was a nice surprise, but it all ended there. The steps down to the park were unkempt and it reflected the entire park. The trails were all small and narrow, the shrubbery tall, and the ground was uneven and muddy. The park is also not that big. The trails don't connect to other trails (at least that's what I found when I went) and there are no grassy areas. I did like how close it was to the Truckee river. It's literally right there! You can take your dog here (if he/she likes the water) or, even better, you can fish here without much disturbance or noise. It's definitely peaceful and quiet here. It would also be a good starting point if you wanted to go tubing down the river. If Mayberry park's parking was full, this would be a nice alternative spot. Overall, I would only recommend this park if you like fishing. It's great that it's close to the river, but it's not a park for families and/or outdoor activities.

It's not often a store also provides a bit of an experience…read more Scheels is a vast store. It's got almost anything you can imagine related to outdoor activities and sporting goods. It's so big I'm not sure I've ever even been through the whole thing. Upon entering on either side they have big fish tanks that our kids love looking at, and then of course they have the massive Ferris wheel. The cost is $1 per rider which is more than fair, but in my experience they will often just give you the tokens to ride for free. The store itself is a bit pricey. But there's a variety here that you won't get many other places. So you're almost certain to find something.

Easy 5 stars. Highly recommended…read more Scheels in Sparks is an awesome place, especially for families. It's a huge sports shop located at Legends and there's an incredible amount of stuff to see and shop for. Whether you're into outdoor gear, sports equipment, apparel, or just browsing, there are so many options that it's hard not to find something you like. What really makes it stand out is how much there is to look at even if you're not buying anything. It's a great place to walk around with the family, check things out, and spend some time together. Clean, well organized, and packed with quality sporting goods. Definitely one of the best retail spots in the area.

This is an excellent outdoor space to enjoy the trees, the ponds, the ducks, and the trails. It's so peaceful to walk along the Truckee River, too; the sound of water is quite relaxing. There are 49 acres total at this community park, which also features a swimming pool, playgrounds, a skate park, picnic tables, bbq area, volleyball courts, baseball fields, and public restrooms.

Bob was an avid fisherman as well as manufacturer of what he called "Rocket Launcher" for tackle boxes, died recently. He also made custom rods. His passing left me with many incomplete Rocket launchers in various stages of manufacturing. He also had a variety of "thread and paints of different colors. He also has a rod turner/rotary tool and possibly other tools I haven't listed. He was a one-man business and as such, I have no idea what it is worth but there might be someone who is looking to start a custom-built shop but I haven't found anyone yet in the Las Vegas area!. His shop is in Amargosa Valley Nevada on private property and I could meet someone who may be interested in this "stuff"!

There is a small parking lot that is pretty safe since there is really no other reason to be in this area unless you are using the park. As far as naming of this park, I believe it was named after Dr. Massoud Dorostkar, an anesthesiologist in Reno who donated the tract of land for use as a park. What I dont know is how to properly prononuce the Persian surname Dorostkar. is it DO-roast-car or duh-RAWST-kahr?

Arlo is the Best!!!…read more I have been on a few guided trips over the years and I have to say that his approach to his craft is a breathe of fresh air.

Arlo took my wife and myself on the Little Truckee river and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed that we cannot wait to go again. Arlo you gained a customer for Life!!! Keep up the good work!
