I should explain myself as to why I am the Duke of this park and check in here on a regular basis…read more It is because I work right next door and I am a smoker so I sneak over to the park because our facility is smoke free. They do a pretty good job of maintaining this park and it is always clean. That's an important factor in a good park. There isn't much traffic there so it is very private and relaxing. If you ever needed a place for a little family get together, it would be a great location.

This park has two amazing things that you rarely see in any public park…read more (1) They have a free, public archery range. This is a surprisingly well maintained range as well and is almost always open. I was actually taught how to shoot an arrow here, and it made my life in high school gym must less miserable. You can make reservations to insure that the place will be free, but I have never seen it any other way. Just to be safe, call or stop by the ranger station. (2) They have a HUGE remote control air field. I know this sounds incredibly dorky, but I think it's awesome that the St. Louis County Parks System has created a park for people that build remote control airplanes and who want to fly them. My grandpa was a huge fan of remote control airplanes and he spent many many years flying the planes he built at this field. I went with him many times and it was always a blast. It's also a great place to just watch the old men and young kids fly their remote control planes...no seriously, it's entertaining. Just a forewarning: they often have a ton of loose golf balls on the field from people practicing their drives in the open space. Don't fall on any of them...I've actually seen this happen. It's a nice park to have a picnic, fly a kite, or just hang out. There's not a lot of action going on, but sometimes open space is nice. I have a soft spot for this park and always will.

I actually came here to hike for the first time last week. Was very satisfied, and it was well…read moreworth the drive from Illinois to come here. So why am I docking it a star? Before coming here I did research on what are the recommended trails to hike, and what is popular with most people. The Lone Wolf and the River Scene trails were the top two, I found out. So they were at the top of my priority list. When I got to the park, I stopped in the Visitors Center (or park office?) to get a map. I did the Lone Wolf trail first, since it was the longest and supposedly the most grueling of the two. It was cool with all the lookout views and some of the decaying structures (there's a story that goes with that). But the part that annoyed me was how the trails were poorly marked. The River Scene Trail was red and the Lone Wolf trail was yellow. I knew they closed off a section of the River Scene trail due to erosion. But the map I saw online (at the park's website) and the map the park ranger gave me had two differently marked routes, which sparked a lot of confusion in me. I don't know why I got my feathers ruffled on that, but yeah. I hope they fix that section soon, or by next year. But I'll still return to check out some of the other trails!

There were lots of Canadian geese that didn't want to be approached with their babies.

The shelter provided the perfect space and we were able to move the food tables underneath with enough space for the guests to eat and play games. Queeny is her favorite park so being able to incorporate it into her shower made her so so happy! There's plenty of parking and such a lovely high view of the overall park for a great backdrop for pictures. The best way to get to this spot is through the entrance from Weidman. A lot of us guests got lost by the many entrances and had to circle around and were afraid we would be too late but it all worked out! Would be great to have some signage at other entrances to say where to go to get to certain parts of the park.

If you live near Sunset Hills, I recommend this park.
