They also have a few "work out" structures. They say 12 & Up - but the kids are always drawn to them. 3 swings- one infant 2 kid sized swings. Nice/tucked away in Hope Village. Somewhat hard to find- there is a small green Sign that says "Hope Park" where you need to turn.

Right when I started walking towards the park, I was greeted with action: a mink was chasing a rat…read moreand eventually did have it for lunch. This led me to pay close attention to what other animals were around. I came across a couple birds, one more mink, and a lot of Canada geese, some of which were chilling on a house's lawn. They were fearless and started coming towards me but stopped about 6 feet away. The loop around the body of water is about half a mile so it makes for a perfect casual stroll; a lot of people were walking their dog, talking on the phone, or on a run. Two sides of this park has houses, and it seems like people respect the neighbor's privacy and peace since it was quiet. There's a dock to fish, along with other spots. There's a little library where you can take/drop off books. They have lots of benches along the way and the entire path is paved. There is a parking lot across the park; it seems like it belongs to a school so in the summer it's convenient to park there but it might be a different story during the school year.

A little disappointed. Was enjoying the nice weather while it lasts and this park came up. Alas,…read moreits not really much of a park. It's really just a lake with benches. Not that is a bad thing, but that doesn't make it a park. For a lake it's a nice getaway though.

Once you get to the top of that, you have a chance to see a nice view of the city to your left. Along the way to the top and if you keep going a little father there are multiple trail paths that jet off. It was easily on its way to being a five-star review. Unfortunately, I didn't get to explore as much of the trail(s) as I wanted, as I started to feel unsafe. Walking from the parking lot to the trail I was approached by 2 different people asking for money, and as I was walking the beginning of the trail, I noticed one of them following a little behind me. Although I had my pepper spray on me, I didn't want to be in a position where something could possibly escalate, so I cut through and back to the beginning of the trail and avoided the interaction. If you are going to this trail, I'd advise bringing a hiking buddy.

The botanical gardens are much more spacious than I remember there are 4 different greenhouses with a wide variety of tropical plants, trees, a kid's play space, and an herb and vegetable garden. They even have a mini koi pond with some huge koi. Everything was decorated for the holidays with multiple christmas trees, several different train sets and poinsettias everywhere. One of the train sets has a model city that is supposed to look like Providence. I love model trains so this was fun to see. I do wish they had made the settings a little bit more detailed and realistic. Overall a very cool place and a nice retreat from the coldness of winter. It's very warm and humid in there so it really does feel like you're somewhere tropical. They have some truly gigantic monsteras, jade trees and elephant ear plants. Definitely inspiring for my home plant collection! I had no idea how huge some of these plants could get under the right conditions. I do wish there were more labels on the plants - we found some interesting trees (a fruit tree that was maybe papaya) but there was no sign to indicate what it was. Check it out - a fun, family friendly spot to go on a winter weekend. And don't forget to visit the goats on the way in!
