Arrive early on weekends
Recreational sports tournaments crowd the park on Saturdays and Sundays, blocking trails and taking up space.
Bring bug spray in warm months
No-see-um gnats cause intense biting, especially in grass areas, forcing families to leave early.
Go early morning for shade
The playground floor becomes very hot despite shading, so morning visits are cooler and more comfortable.
