Based on visitor reports
Visit spring through early summer
The flower garden is a major draw when in bloom but looks sparse or drab during other seasons.
Young toddlers may struggle with playground
The play equipment is positioned quite high, making it challenging for very small children.
Bring your own restroom supplies
Porta-potties are sometimes absent or broken, and there are no permanent bathrooms on site.
Go for peaceful afternoons, not sports
The park is quiet and uncrowded, ideal for picnics and relaxation rather than team games or large gatherings.
Street parking only, arrive early
There is no dedicated lot and street parking fills up, especially on nice days.
