I'm extremely impressed with this park. I would not have known about it other than from a friend at…read morework who lives in the area. As soon as you drive in, this magnificent (perspective of a kid) playground appears to the left. It's even called the Kids Kingdom. My kids had a blast. Even my 20 month old had a wonderful time. We brought some PIZZA, ate on one of the nice picnic tables within Kids Kingdom. However, I must admit I had a specific intent for checking out this park; disc golf!! There is an 18 hole disc golf course. There are plenty of trees, dog legs (left and right turns... not actual legs of dogs), and water hazards to make it interesting. There is a nice variety of long and short throws. The tee pads were extremely easy to find; however, the baskets from the tee pads weren't as easy to find. If I had the map, that I attached to this review, from the beginning it would have been a different story. I skipped one basket because I assumed the drive was a little longer. I ended up throwing it 3/4 of the way to the next basket. No worries... I'll know better next time. I didn't know what PAR was for the baskets, so I assumed everything was PRO PAR and ended with 1 over for the 18 holes. I know there is a lot of room for improvement. I will definitely take my family to this park again!! My wife also wanted me to mention on this review that the bathrooms were nice and right next to the playground. My 6 year old didn't realize the bathrooms were so close and found a tree out in the distance. You'd think he was born in a barn or something....

It also has an indoor bathroom facility with concession stand along with a covered picnic area. Relative to the baseball fields, they are in excellent shape with a well maintained dirt infield and a nicely grassed outfield (no patchy rock filled outfield). Dugout areas have protective fencing with nice benches with separate spectator bleachers for each field. There are numerous adult and children leagues running throughout the spring, summer and fall at this park with sign up info posted near the fields. Similar situation with the single soccer field that also is in excellent shape with leagues running continuously through the warm months. The bathrooms and covered picnic areas are also exceptionally clean and very modern where the township has staff maintaining it on a daily basis. Overall a very nice park where i am very happy to see where some of my tax dollars have been well spent. Really a gem of a sports park that West Bloomfield should be quite proud of.

Maple Glen Park is a baseball centric park that is the home of the commerce Little league. The…read morecomplex is really a first rate baseball complex with a dozen fields with each field being fully fenced in, both team dugouts fenced in providing safety for the kids, nice manicured infield and grass outfield that is in good shape. The fields/complex are well managed and kept in excellent shape which is a far cry from the stone fields I played on when I was a a kid in Flint. Aside from the fields themselves, the Commerce Little league has been around for a long time where the quality of the play, coaches and instruction is superior to all the other leagues in the area as evidenced from all the state title teams that have come through this league. I have been a long time fan of this complex/league where my kids played and I coached here thirty years ago and now my grandkids are starting to play here. It really is kind of cool when you have an opportunity to be part of a complex/league that has become generational like this and gives me a great deal of satisfaction to see this continue with my sons/daughter-in-laws now taking their children to the games. If you are looking for a baseball league for your young kids and want to see them actually learn the sport from knowledgeable and caring coaches than you need look no further than this park/league. Five stars ++++

If I could rate these fields a zero, I would. Township charged our softball league an outrageous…read moreamount of money to play on mediocre fields at best. They charged no other leagues to play there but ours. We also had to pay a separate weekly fee to a useless landscaping company to drag the fields. they did not fulfill half of the duties that they promised. Players had to get to fields early just to get the field in shape, set the bases (that they were paid to do). Then the township notified us that they were upping our monthly "rental" of the fields by 50%. Thousands per month. USELESS people running this department period. I would advise any league from ever playing there.

Cute little park with some walking trails…read more This park isn't too far away from my family's house. We've visited this nature preserve a few times when dropping by to see the in-laws. It's not an overly impressive park, but it's clean, well-maintained, has nice walking/biking trails and updated playground/playscape equipment for the kids. It's a nice spot for taking a walk or riding bikes, especially in the fall when the leaves are changing color. It's super quiet and seems pretty safe. At least no one ever litters here!

Nice baseball centric park located in Springfield Township. At the heart of the complex are four…read morewell maintained ball diamonds. The outfield grass is thick and cut to proper length unlike the rock pit I played on when I was a kid growing up in Flint. Infield is nicely groomed and being well maintained where you can tell it is being dragged on a regular basis. The one negative though is that it appears to be a crushed stone field versus dirt. This is OK for the young kids but I can see it being a bit more problematic with older teens where hard hit line shots can leave you being a bit gun shy about bad bounces when it hits one of the small stones. A bit of personal preference here on my part where a well maintained dirt infield or a combination of groomed grass/dirt would definately be better. Last thing to note about the fields are that the player benches are located outside of the diamond behind the fence. The positive is the kids are protected by line drives but the negative is there is no separation between the players and their parents allowing them to co-mingle with the players which is a definite distraction during the game and a little bit of an annoyance to the coaches. Aside from the ball diamonds there would also appear to be a concession building with bathrooms which is a big positive. The concession building was not open during my grandsons game and not sure if this is normal or a result of the Covid virus safety pre-cautions. In any event definately better than many of the parks that are lacking this type of infra-structure. Overall a nice facility where it actually makes you feel good when you see some of the better things that our tax dollars are paying for relative to family/community activities. Facilities like this were not available where I grew up and I am very pleased as both a tax payer and long time Oakland county resident to see Oakland county incorporate this into their annual budgets. Nice job Oakland/Springfield!

Sometimes you just need a little sunshine and a good walk -- and Wisnor Stadium is one of my…read morefavorite spots to do exactly that. It's a quiet, no-fuss place where you can get in some laps and clear your head. The track is a standard 1/4 mile, so I aimed for 4 laps this time (for a full mile), but some fine rain cut me off at 3. Still worth it though -- the fresh air felt great, and there were just a few others walking, so it never felt crowded. There was a game going on during my visit, so the parking lot was fuller than normal, but the track itself was almost empty. We've been coming to Wisnor for years, and it's always well-kept -- grass cut, clean, and ready for whatever pace you're bringing that day. Highly recommend it if you're local and looking for a chill, open space to move your body.

We spend the better part of 3 hours here and the kids had a blast. The park does a great job instructing you and there is a wide range of courses from very high (and very challenging) to very easy and not so high up. This is a great place for adults to gang out with their kids of any age doing activities together. Wear sturdy shoes, I recommend having pants and even long sleeves, but the bugs were not bad at all. You must wear protective gloves (but they sell them there). We had a blast and would come back again with kids 9 to 16

A quintessential Michigan summer experience: the lawn at Pine Knob Music Theatre (fka DTE Energy…read moreMusic Theatre). I had the chance to experience it first hand this past week, and it was better than expected: 1) parking was free! we didn't pay for the premier/VIP lot though (it was already sold out by the time I tried to get it!) 2) concessions were priced as expected, BUT i was surprised by the variety AND the food options. Also on the lawn, like a baseball game, you have folks walking around selling water, lemonade, etc. 3) the overall vibe was great - people were having fun (maybe too much fun ahah). Didn't realize there was a tailgate culture since it was: *3:30pm Parking Opens *6pm Doors *7:30pm Music! The opener started on time and played about an hour and the main act started on time. They had speakers going out into the lawn so I could hear JUST fine. I found it helpful to have my earplugs still hit 95dbs. I think being inside the pavilion sounded way to reverb-y so I really enjoyed the lawn. 4) We rented chairs and found it worth it at $15 each (with $5 deposit returned to you). We left a little early before the last couple of songs so it was pretty easy getting out! All in all, a great experience!

Pine Knob is a classic concert venue that has made it through the test of time. Some things are the…read moresame as they were twenty years ago and some have been improved. 75 is a bear no matter what with year round construction. Give yourself time to get to the show early and you'll be just fine. Traffic control once you're off the highway and going in and out of the venue is very good these days. The parking lots are plentiful. The earlier you go, the better spot you get. It's all free except for VIP which I don't know why people pay that uncharge. Tailgating is alive and well here. Bring your gear and hang before the shows. The drink options inside are varied. You can find Michigan beers and local restaurants inside. The addition I'm most excited to try is the Fed (a local Clarkston restaurant that has built a satellite here). Like every live event, drinks are stupid expensive. Offset that slightly by bringing a 20 oz. sealed water bottle in with you. One per person. Chairs should be beach height only (no more than 12 inches off the ground). You can bring blankets as well or instead of for lawn seating. There are reserved/covered seats as well. Sound is great here. There are monitors in the lawn section so you can actually see something. Most concerts end by 11 due to the noise ordinance. No clear recycle bins until after you leave the show. Great for dropping cans off on your way in, but a complete miss on the way out when you have to throw plastic and metal in a garbage bin. Tip: go to the box office to save on the absurd ticket service fees. Check their hours before you go.
