Doodle takeover ;)

A perfect little park adjacent to Aksarben shopping center's booming presence of gym, movie theatre, bars, restaurants, bakeries, and professional businesses. It gives the already growing neighborhood a green oasis for dogs, recreational sports, local events (farmers market and concerts) and just plain relaxing. I have seen the park put to good use often, and I am glad there is a green patch in the middle of a busy city atmosphere.

Here for Beer fest!! We seen approximately 80 tents with samples!! Every tent had spokespeople who knew exactly what they were serving!! Very professional & yet relaxing! The Live band Outlaws was playing! Always good times with music drinks & sunshine! Lots of friendly people. Seen new & old friends! This is the place to be!

Since this is just about the park it would be about 4.5 stars as a venue. Many things happen here and not one of them has been bad. From Beer Fests and Farmer's Markets to craft cocktails and MAHA. This has been just right for me. The stage has a great reverb from the nearby AkSarBen Village and the size is right for about 1K people. I don't understand the phallic obelisk , but I never claimed to be a designer. All in all, it is a great park with wonderful events that bring residents closer and provides a safe area for entertainment. Plenty of options for food within walking distance and a bouncy safe play area for kids, too. I just wish the restrooms were not so far away. it feels like a long trek when you have poorly timed your needs

Stinson Park is a great spot to spread out and relax. There are plenty of benches to plop down on and soak in some sun. There's a large playground for the kiddos to enjoy. Plus an expansive green and bandshell used for countless events throughout the year. And that's just it. Stinson Park is at its best hosting thousands of people at or music festival or giant beer garden. This area (Aksarben Village) is ripe with development and fast becoming more dense and vibrant as the years progress. And Stinson will only become a more desirable place for festivals and large events in the future. I'm good with that! On another note, I wonder what's inside that giant obelisk.

Enjoying Lemon Fresh Day!

When I bought my house within a mile from here back in July 2011, I knew the area was growing and expanding but now I'm just pleased and amazed by how much it has. I love taking my dog to the park and walking around "the circle" when the weather is nice. They also provide quality poop bags for clean up. The area is always clean even after big events which they host a lot of these days. The free outdoor concerts are a great weekend option as is the Farmer's Market which I attend almost every week. The restaurants, shop and theater are an added bonus. I've heard people complain about the parking but I love the free parking garage and have never had trouble, even during Corporate Cup Run. Aksarben Village's tagline "where there is always something fun going on!" is spot on! So glad to live in this part of Omaha.

Lake Zorinsky in Omaha is such a great outdoor spot -- so clean and well-maintained, with plenty of…read morespace for biking, walking, and enjoying the lake views. One of the highlights is the new fully inclusive playground -- it's thoughtfully designed with ramps, wheelchair-accessible swings, and fun features for kids of all abilities, making it a great destination for families. Cyclists will appreciate the addition of air and tools for on-the-fly bike repairs, which makes stopping here even more convenient. I also love the recent trail improvements at 168th Street -- the updated sections make riding and walking around the park feel smoother and safer. Whether you're out for a spin, a stroll, or a family day, Lake Zorinsky is a must-visit outdoor escape in West Omaha!

We've been taking the boat on the lake for awhile now and I don't want to be the guy to complain…read morebut....... Well right when I get there there's cars parked all over in the Trailer parking area which makes it difficult to maneuver for us towing a long truck and boat. Then to lessen our experience even more we get to the dock to launch the boat and both of the docks are covered in dog poop. I never seen anything like that. If we're trying to follow the rules why are we walking through dog poop to visit the Lake. And lastly again not to try to upset anyone but why are people allowed to fish from the dock and slow and even hinder us boaters. It's just aggravating.

One of Omaha's signature parks. Nice playground for kids…read more Lots of picnic tables and grills. A pavilion. Quaint if slightly sketchy grotto. A baseball field. Lots of mature trees and a walking path. Even a pool and a golf course! This is a great space for public events, such as an Earth Day celebration I recently attended. It is by UNO campus and that can impact traffic and parking sometimes. Still, a really nice green space here in the city.

My review of the this park may be a little weird because I'm not reviewing it as a public park…read morereally, I'm reviewing it as a wedding venue. But also the beauty of the park itself will be discussed many times - don't worry. We wanted a short (but still beautiful) outdoor wedding in October, and realized that the City of Omaha actually rents out parks for events. And the gorgeous Elmwood Park Grotto was the first thing I thought of! Just a note, you can't reserve a park location more than a year out (so a year to the day out from our wedding date, we called and snapped it up). We reserved the grotto, and went to look at the space to be sure it could fit our large guest list. It was exactly the right size - we decided to rent some nice chairs to put in a little semicircle design in front of the fountain, and we had the wedding take place at the front of the semicircle at the center of the fountain. The fall foliage was in full bloom and made our special day so perfect. The gorgeous greenery of the park also made the most beautiful backdrop for our formal photos once the chairs had been cleared out! The only negative thing I would note if you decide to rent the grotto, is that they don't put up any signs or anything that it's closed/rented for a private event, so I would recommend doing that yourself and placing signs at each entrance. We almost had someone walk their dog through our wedding because we didn't do this. All in all, It was perfect for our needs. A gorgeous (and very affordable!) outdoor location with a fountain to wed in front of, some pretty steps so you can still "walk down the aisle" - and a huge space to fit our 100+ guests!
