Good walk lots of smells for her. We will come back. Plenty of parking. Good vibes, calm peaceful. Lots of people were out walking with their dogs, spouse and alone. It was a very good experience. I recommend this park. They also have a restaurant across the street for afterwards if interested. You can also see more of the water on the other side. I didn't go walking there, I drove over. Very beautiful. Sasha was not having that walk too close to the water lol.

Chambers Creek Regional Park is one of my favorite places throughout the year. They have a wide…read morerange of activities at this park, such as golfing, biking, skateboarding, walking, running, picnicking, kite flying, and beer festivals. There's a pretty lengthy trail close to the street that also leads to the Chambers Bay Grill. At the grill, they host special events, weddings, and personal celebrations. The Grill has an average set of drinks on tap and a pretty decent food menu as well as outdoor seating for those who want to continue to take in the breathtaking views around the park. Additionally, there are several strategically placed Scenic Overlook/viewpoint areas where you can sit, take in a magnificent view of the sound and landscape of the golf course. I usually come here at least 2-3 times a month to walk down the steep decline to the golf course area/trail over to a bridge that extends slightly into the sound. Here is my meditative space - somewhere I can go for some quiet reflection.

Thea's park is a great place to get some fresh air and enjoy what Washington has to offer! While…read morethe park itself is small you can continue to walk down the waterway and it ends up being quite a nice walk. The park itself is mostly a grass area with small beach access, a few tables, and beautiful views. Come during the right time and you can see all sorts of marine life. I see seals and/or sea lions almost every time I come this time of year, otters are fairly common, and when the salmon come through (August-ish) you can see them jump. This park is tucked away enough that it allows you to kind of forget you're in Tacoma while still being super close to finding a new restaurant to try.

This is a nice little park in the Proctor neighborhood. Small climbing structure with some swings,…read moreit's a good place to let the littles burn some energy. Lots of trees in the area so it's pretty easy to choose a time that'll keep you in the shade. Some green space, but it's pretty slanted so it's not good for any sort of sports. This is the place to park near if you want to go through the natural area. The trails in the natural area are very well maintained and pleasant to walk on. This area is apparently salmon bearing, but I'm really questioning how they get though as some of the areas I saw looked completely blocked with debris from a fishy standpoint. I suppose time will tell? If the salmon do come through this area, it's definitely a great place to get a close look! Trail had some muddy areas, but overall it wasn't too bad. Great area in a great neighborhood!

It's a fairly small park and there aren't a lot of park amenities but that's not really the purpose of having multiple offerings for activities. What this park is best for is to relax and take in the view. Here you can view Puget Sound and sit in a swinging chair and just absorb the scenery. To the south is the small ferry that will take you to Anderson Island and then more towards the north but not far north is McNeil Island and then further north is Chambers Bay. This is a well maintained park and so you can enjoy that as well but the main draw to this special little park is definitely the view.
