Visit on dry days
Heavy rain creates muddy low-lying areas and makes root-covered terrain difficult to navigate safely.
Go during daytime hours
The park becomes unsafe after dark with reports of car break-ins and sketchy activity.
Great for sports and active play
Well-maintained basketball courts, tennis courts, baseball fields, and open space make this ideal for athletic kids.
Supervise children closely
Homeless individuals frequent the park, and there have been reports of vehicle break-ins during sports activities.
Bring water and snacks
No food vendors or water fountains are available nearby, so plan to bring supplies.
