Cute park located at the edge of Downtown Parker. Loved that they had plenty of seating options. Also a kids playground, of course. Loved walking around and checking out the sculptures. They did have public parking lots as well as street parking. My only issue was that EVERY single trash can was overflowing with trash. read more

Gorgeous park close to where we got our coffee at Fika. We decided to walk as it was a beautiful night. There were bunch of sculptures, seating areas and grassy areas to lounge. This would be a place I would go for a picnic lunch or to chill if I lived here! ***lost 1 star due to the trashes overflowing... all of them. Yuck read more

Our first visit here and we were very impressed! The playground is uniquely designed with lots of slides, climbing structures, and plenty of space for kids to run, play, and explore. A great spot for kids to burn off energy! read more

A pretty nice park in downtown parker. There is a parking lot with lot of parking. It has a pool with water slides and a splash pad, open grass areas, a basketball court, a large playground, etc. Their playground has something for all the kids. There is a large and pretty tall structure for the bigger kids and smaller climbing structures for the smaller ones. Lots of swings. On the weekends if can get pretty crowded here. This area gets utilized for local events such as Parker Days. read more

Decent park. Parking is sketch sometimes. Lots to do in the area. Easy walk to nearby shops and restaurants

The good: My toddler loves this park and so do I! It was more recently revamped and it has something for everyone. There are plenty of swings including the big saucer-style swing and a two-person swing. There is a balance beam, see-saw type structure for four, a spinning sitting thing (sorry for these descriptions) and rocking bear thing. There's a basketball court, conveyor-style slide with the metal pipes, futuristic spaceship-looking climbable structures and lots of slides. There's a bigger kids' playground that's super tall and a smaller kids' area. It's super pretty this month because of all the Christmas lights on the trees nearby with Santa's workshop and a mailbox to send letters to Santa. I like the spongey floor because it's clean and comfortable to stand on. It's in downtown Parker so there are nice shops to walk to from this playground. The bad: We live far from this awesome park. The interesting: I came at night and was able to enjoy the park because it was illuminated by the Christmas lights. read more

This was my first time back since the remodeling amd the playsets are very modern. Two huge slides in the back and a variety of swings kept the kids busy. The layout is nice and clean and it is in a great part of town. There is plenty of parking nearby as well. read more

O'Brien Park - Parks Near Me - Parker, Colorado

This is a large park in downtown Parker, there is a large playground in the middle for the kids and a pavilion on the other side of the entrance. I liked the many different displays of art work and sculptures that prominently featured the history of the town. Next to the park is a tunnel that the walls are painted with many different depictions of scenes from movies and other forms of pop culture and the tunnel has a large speaker in it that plays music. This is a fun place to visit. read more

Not sure how I feel about the new equipment. However, it is still a very popular park. Can get quite busy. There is plenty of parking and a covered picnic area. The main issue: no bathrooms! Even after redesigning the park, you have to walk to the pool to go, not great for younger kids (or adults who drink too much coffee). Park gets mixed reviews, if you've never been, check it out before you make up your mind based on reviews. read more

I think it's odd to rate and/or review a park, playground, field, etc. but here I am. Just doing that. O'Brien Park seems to be easily missed.. heck, I even missed it a handful of times until a mommy friend of mines suggested taking my kids there. Thanks Hanna! The location of the O'Brien Park is on Mainstreet and S Parker Rd. I wouldn't ever imagine a park being located nearby a busy intersection but it surprisingly is. However, you don't really notice the background noise or traffic (if any) within the park space. It has more than what most parks have to offer around the Parker area. There are 2-3 playgrounds (a toddler one is nearby the bigger one so some may consider it one playground) , basketball hoops, baseball field, ample parking spaces in a parking lot, and so forth. A water park is nearby but it's only open seasonally and isn't free. Now onto the park itself? My three kids under six years old love the playgrounds and the variety it offers. Of course, it has your basic slides that go straight down, swirl, and curves. There are no swings but there is a seat attached to a pole type of swing where it sways side-to-side, or can entirely rotate 360 with enough effort. I like that there are plenty of climbing structures such as a little "rock climbing" wall, bars, stairs, etc. Is any of it dangerous? Well, any park or playground structure can be dangerous if you're not supervising your child(s). Some spots may be higher but that's at many playgrounds I've taken my children to so far in the Lone Tree / Parker area. Except the those tiny toddler playgrounds that usually only offers a short slide or two. I personally find O'Brien Park a fun place for kids to burn energy whilst being able to relax, eat lunch, and/or watch kids at a safe distance on a bench or any of the tables (with benches). read more

If you love your children don't take them to this park. Extremely dangerous parts. Bad design. Watched two kids fall through the upper portion and pinball to the ground. Matter of time until there is a serious injury. read more

This park is bad for younger kids and has a lot of dangerous areas on the play ground. Some of the equiptment is up really high and has open ledges, even on the one that is for kids aged 5ish. One of the worst parks ever. read more

Great place to bring the kids. Lost of gold things to climb up. Good separation of big kid little kid stuff as well as basketball court and baseball diamond. read more
