The place looks well maintained, with benches & gazebo. No parking in the park but we found empty spots on the streets. Lots of what looks like locals are walking their dogs. They don't look friendly, maybe they could tell we are not from there. I assume they are more strict during the warmer months. So if you are not from westchester like us, i recommend visiting in the winter or maybe fall.

Tibbetts Brooks Park is a nice park in Yonkers that features a few streams, walking trails and a…read moregreat bathhouse; though, I did not swim on this occasion. My church held its annual family day cookout on a beautiful Saturday morning and afternoon. The park ingress and egress demand good bus drivers at a few tight corners within and just outside the park. Tibbetts has plenty of parking to accommodate a large number of visitors and the bathhouse is as much a draw as the rest of the park. The pool features a few sections with different tiers outside the pool for lounging and families gathering. It's not all concrete, rather many of the lounge areas are covered in AstroTurf, which makes for a more relaxed and comfortable surface upon which to lay towels and blankets. The restrooms are kept clean, but they have a rather heavy duty check-in for access to the bathhouse. They are controlled by park employees and park police. The pool access fee is $12pp for non-Yonkers residents, even if you think you have a different understanding for group access. Many of our church members were turned away, unless they paid the individual fee. The park employees regularly removed the trash in the vicinity of our family day outing and wherever other groups gathered. They are setup well to handle large groups at Tibbetts Brooks Park. 3.8 stars!

Playground Review Only- Tibbetts Brook Park has so much potential, but the playground is badly…read moreoutdated and in serious need of renovation. The equipment is visibly old and deteriorating, with features that are broken, missing, rusting, or simply being closed off instead of replaced. One of the most obvious examples is a missing slide. The slide has been completely removed, with the concrete footing where it once ended still visible on the ground, while the elevated entrance to the slide has simply been blocked with a small metal barrier. Other play components are worn, faded, and incomplete. The condition of the equipment also goes beyond simply looking old. There is significant visible deterioration on the elevated metal platforms, including peeling and worn protective coating and exposed, rusted metal. These are surfaces children regularly walk on, climb over, and touch. Combined with the missing slide, blocked-off play features, deteriorated equipment, and inadequate ground covering, the playground gives the appearance of being maintained through temporary fixes rather than properly rehabilitated. The playground surface is another concern. Much of the area is bare, compacted dirt with very little wood-chip coverage, including underneath and around elevated play equipment. A children's playground should have adequately maintained protective surfacing, especially in areas where children could fall. This is a major Westchester County park in Yonkers that is heavily used by families, and the playground should reflect that. Removing equipment as it fails, blocking openings, and leaving the remaining aging structure in place is not a long-term solution. At this point, this playground needs more than cosmetic maintenance. Westchester County should conduct a comprehensive safety inspection and replace or fully rehabilitate the aging playground equipment and safety surfacing. Families and children using Tibbetts Brook Park deserve a playground that is safe, complete, modern, and properly maintained.

It feels totally safe (during daylight), and looks like it's well utilized by its community. I don't live nearby, but would definitely go more often if I had easier access.

7th September 2026 Untermyer Gardens…read moreYonkers, NY Very Sunny 72°F Did you know that in 1913 Samuel Untermyer hired William Bosworth who was the same designer of Kykuit, the Rockefeller estate in Pocantico, to design the "finest garden in the world"? His vision was of a theatrical, magnificent landscape blending Indo-Persian, ancient Greek, Roman, and Italian Renaissance designs. When I was last here in 2013, the Untermyer gardens looked sadly desolate and neglected. Today, the gardens have been restored to their true remarkable glory thanks 100% to generous donations in the millions. We could not have chosen a more perfect day to visit the celebrated historical Untermyer Gardens overlooking the Hudson on this glorious Labor Day Monday. I took many photos which do not do justice to the gorgeous scope and details of the beautiful manicured 43 acres. ***Open 7AM to 7PM - seasonally.*** There's more information on their website and QR codes at the entrance with rules to respect the environment. Good job! **Get there early.** We went at 8:30AM. By the time we were leaving at 11AM the park was packed and parking impossible. Thank you so much for reading.

The grounds are…read morealways stunning, but they're especially spectacular in September when everything is in full bloom and the gardens are filled with vibrant colors. Admission is completely free, although donations are accepted to help preserve this incredible place--which is amazing considering how well maintained it is. It's the perfect destination to spend about two hours, whether you want to enjoy a peaceful stroll, take plenty of photos, or do a little of both. The breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Palisades make the visit even more memorable. There's also plenty of free parking, which makes getting there easy. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is that it can get fairly crowded on beautiful weekends, but it's absolutely worth visiting and returning to throughout the year.
