Parking fills up quickly on Saturdays and Sundays, sometimes leaving only overflow lots available.

Disc golf, walking trails, dog parks, basketball courts, and picnic areas mean the whole family can spend hours here.
Check facilities before arriving
While generally clean, occasional trash and maintenance issues have been reported on tables and play equipment.
Go in early morning when hot
Summer visits are more comfortable before 11am, as the playground has limited shade despite many mature trees.
