There's also wide open fields that we chase each other at, kicking the soccer ball. When my hubs feels up to it he skateboards and also shoots some hoops while our son watches. This park was in the news a few months back for a shooting and it really hit hard because we could've been here that day and who knows what would've happened. The park is next to Green River and a residential apartment complex. I don't come here without my hubs which is a shame because it has all the makings of a really good neighborhood park but I dont feel safe without him.

Many types to choose from, though they're commonly used for "official" events and may be in use. There's a playground for the kiddos and a walking trail with easy access to Green River Trail.

First time here, and I know I'll be here many times over…read more There's nothing like being near the water. The view doesn't disappoint. Totally worth the payoff of hiking down (and back up). The trail (non-paved) to the beach is moderately steep. Loose gravel in some points so be careful. It's pretty narrow too. The paved walkway backup is also steep and will get the cardio going. Along the trail are many picnic tables to sit, eat a snack, take some pics, and catch your breath. Only downside is parking is limited. Go early if you can. Overall highly recommend.

Walked around a little bit, played at the playground and relaxed a bit. He seemed to like the park. Both instances were pretty calm and chill. There weren't too many cars parked at the parking lot nor were there a lot of people. So, it was actually enjoyable to take in the nature and simple views of the park. Walked to the Vietnam War Memorial as well. A decent park for a nice stroll and to visit.

So much to do and so much fun activities for the kids!!…read more They fixed the playground so there were additional games the kids can do. The best part is you can visit their website and you can check if the water is okay for the kids to play with . There's usually an update regarding if you can swim and such. The only thing I'm worried about is when there is no one there to facilitate the other kids swimming, because I noticed there were lots of kids who goes there without their parents or guardians. The cops do come around for their rounds sometimes, but not all the time . I always have my eyes on my kids because there were sooooooo many people and soo many kids during school break holidays and I can't even imagine summer break. If you want to entertain your kids for hours bring them here and just have a picnic and enjoy the sand with the kids. Don't forget the shovel and bucket though lol.

I went to Steel Lake Park for a Pokémon Go event and I really liked this park a lot! Steel Lake is…read morepretty but surrounded by housing so the feel of nature is lessened somewhat. Nice pier that goes over some of the lake to take in veiws and to fish. Nice swimming area and it was busy with kids occupying the area but I still felt it was too nippy outside to really enjoy the water. The Funland part is kind of an elaborate wood jungle gym which looks like a great place to let kids play in. Plenty of room in the park to spread out and and do picnics and just hang out. The weekend I went the park was popular with all of it's amenities including a snack vendor which was in the building where the restrooms were next to the lake. Parking isn't too bad but I was a little bit concerned if I was going to find a spot but there are two lots that you can use and the one towards the entrance to the park is bigger. Nice outing and glad I made it here as I had it on my list but I am glad I went when I did because in midsummer heat I am sure this park is super busy!
