This park was very peaceful. Lots of space to spread out. My kids(5,4,2) loved all the equipment(it was clean and not run down)and were confident enough to climb and play independently. Great walking trails and no sketchy business happening around the kids. Everyone we encountered was very nice.
Great place to go walking. No problems at this park. It safe.
The park is a nice size and there are lots of trees around. Its in a very quiet neighborhood which is nice because so many parks in Arlington seem to be located next to busy roads and all you here is the noise of traffic. The parking situation is a little odd. There is a parking lot, but its not close to the playground. Normally I dont mind walking, but if Im having to haul an exhausted toddler back to the car, it helps to be parked close by.The playground is nice and there are even a couple of outdoor exercise stations. No bathrooms or gazebos that I could see. Its always nice to have a bathroom at parks even if they cost some money to build and maintain. I personally think its better than having little kids wet their pants or pee on bushes because theres no other option.
Great park. Clean, plenty of visibility around you, and tied into the nearby linear park. Also fun to ride my bike with my kids.
This is a large, beautiful park with a lot of exercise equipment and a running/walking path. There are two playgrounds -- one geared for older kids, and one for younger -- and some swings. There is lots of open grass to play sports, and there are some areas of the park that work for skateboarding. Unfortunately there are no restroom facilities; many people seemed to leave sooner than they wanted to because of this.
Very nice park. The kids love to go play at the school and its very nice environment
Calm peaceful place,really amazing for jogging I love there
Nice neighborhood park. Playground accommodates preschoolers as well as elementary school children. Even has an area for us old folks to work out. Nice area to walk. One concern ... people with big dogs who let them off leash. No problem so far; just need to be aware.
Awesome park. Great play area with equipment for younger and older kiddos - short of having an overly excited or aggressive dog run at cyclers, walkers and kids on the playground. Huge green space with room for all types of family fun and fitness endeavors.Would be better if pet owners observed AND obeyed posting to have pets on leash. Arlington has a dog park, this is not it.3 year review update - still same.
Nice place to walk your dog or hang out with family. Clean area and well defined paths. Also have workout spots placed around the area with stationary set ups.
Wonderful park with great walking trails. The kids play equipment is nicely laid out and fun for all ages (adults included).
Awesome park in a good community. The only downside is a dog park near by. Dog owners te d to think this park is also a dog park because they dont have leashes or clean up after the dog.
Really beautiful. Some awesome old oak trees that are well-cared for. Lots of open green space if you want to play football or ultimate frisbee. Good exercise stations on jog/walk trail. Cool path for skateboarding. But...no bathrooms and no discreet trees or shrubbery to water. A port-a-potty could help.
Pretty awesome park, great for walking and running. Not exactly big enough for biking though. Also, there are no hiking trails. However; Rush Creek goes through the park and there are many areas where you can fish. I am not a child; however, I am pretty sure your children will enjoy the playground equipment.
This park/playground is just great. Their walking trail takes you down a cool wooden bridge and wildflower area which makes you feel like you are out in the wilderness for a minute. In the fall, my kids get a kick out of collecting pecans. They have some pretty cool exercise stations throughout the walking trail and their playground equipment is decent. I just wish they’d have some basketball hoops.
Playground is fun for all ages but parking access is the busy street and even walking to it is strangely out of the way with the sidewalk. Most people walk through the grass. Large tree limbs have fallen. The sidewalk trails dont always meet together either.
We love this park, plenty of space to run & play, the playground is really good, and there is plenty of sidewalk to ride bikes/scooters, skate, or tun/walk.
Great neighborhood park, with a lot things to do. There are play areas for toddlers and older kids both. They also converted the water drainage into skate paths with banked sides. The walking/jogging paths also have exercise stations, and there is a structure aimed at helping elderly people stay active.The only real drawback is the paths arent really sufficient for cycling. They arent very long and can be clogged with pedestrians.
Nice wide fields, good playground area.Cracked slide (as of late Oct 2018) needs to be replaced.Parking is along street, so be aware of cars if you have little children. No handicap parking or playground access or even sidewalk access from the street parking.
Lovely park and adjacent greenbelt along Rush Creek. It would be better if there were bathrooms (there arent) or they maintained the playground better. The ruts beneath the swings are so low and dug in, they are hard for me to get on the swings, and Im 54.
A beautiful linear park. Lots of birds , butterflies, different trees, shrubs, wild flowers. Benches sprinkled throughout if you just want to sit and enjoy the scenery. Theres a duck pond and playground for kidd. A great family park.
Great little park, playground I took my 1 1/2 year old nephew to play at. The walking trails are nice. Not too crowded, not a ton of parking.
Great park! They have a play area for big and little kids, lots of extra things to play on and coverage from the sun. Nice place to take a walk as well. I live about 10 minutes away but its well worth the drive.
We love this park!
Small clean park. Great for families. They have a small preschool place ground as well as a larger one for older children. Very well taken care of grounds. Contains pet bags for pet waste. No restrooms.
Nice park with covered playground, bike trail/ walking path around the park. Not much else to enjoy, just a few barbeque pits around the park, not much other than that. its nice clean and quiet in a nice neighborhood.
My son really enjoys this park. Plenty of slides and stuff to climb on. Its also in a very nice neighborhood.
Nice expansive park which is good for jogging and walking dogs. Huge space which is looped by the trail which is good for letting dogs run around and explore. One loop around the trail is 0.55 miles.
Its fun and has a field and people there are nice beside the kids I learned that where they like to bully they do it to younger kids It didnt happen to me but it did to my Younger siblings.
Very nice park but if youre hispanic and dont live in the neighborhood, be ready to feel plenty uncomfortable from the people that live nearby. My daughter and I left after 20 minutes. How sad that discrimination of this form still exists today. Wont be going back. Veterans park nearby is much nicer and friendlier!
Nice big grassy area with lots of trees and a covered playground for the kids. Workout or strength training equipment for the adults. I did not see a public restroom nearby.
Great park for dogs. Kids area. Over all a great park.
Excellent park! Theres plenty of open green space for picnics or football. There is a running path and a place for the kids to roller skate or skateboard.
Was a fitness park. The fitness equipment needs some looking after.
Very nice well equipped park. My kids love to go play here. There is a nice bike or walking trail and exercise stations around the trail.
Its a great little park for the kids to ride bikes or play on the playground. There lots of walking paths and benches but no bathrooms.
Great park for kids and animals. They have a play ground for small kids, an area for skating, a jogging path, and a work out area. Its great for the whole family.
Love this park! Theres always nice people and always something to do for the whole family
This park is amazing. They have a nice walking path with strength training equipment built in along the walkway. Very nice, new playground.
Perfect walking park. Shaded areas, nice area.
A very nice clean park for dog walking and a playground for the kids. Please keep your dogs on the leash and pick up after them.
Park has many downed limbs and small trees. Needs clean up from the storm last night. Park itself is well maintained and beautiful.
Very nice neighborhood park. Clean and very well maintained. Good trails, workout station, and a nice playground for the kids
This is a beautiful park. One of my favorite parks in Arlington although they could use installing a public bathroom.
Clean, family friendly neighborhood park. The only reason I gave four stars instead of five is because there is no public restroom.
Its a nice park. Wish the workout stuff was grouped together but they have it taped up right now anyway due to the virus.
So glad to find this park! It’s nice and clean and covered, with a cool skate spot. Good for all ages!
Great place with a great park with all kinds of running equipment great for jogging and if you enjoy fishing take a lighter weight poll and fish the creek that runs from that bridge loads of crappie and sun perch worms work the best.
Nice park. Great playgrounds, walking trails, and skate area.
Great open area where I can see all my kids. I love all the trees. The play areas are wonderful.

2021-12-14Such a nice playground and park. It feels like you are outside a big city, a suburb somewhere northeast this time of year.The playground is awesome! My kids love exploring new parks and my eldest daughter kept telling me how this one was the best park weve visited. We loved taking a walk around and picking nuts.The park also has a workout area!Definitely we will be back!

2022-05-04This is one of the most beautiful parks in Texas the only issue that I see is it is more of a residential Park and there are no public restrooms. But other than that it is a fantastic place to bring your family for lots of outdoor quality time fun.

2020-08-20Beautiful park, clean, paved trails, exercise equipment and Senior mobility exercise area, playground, many people walking, dog-friendly. All dogs but one were on a leash. Frequent sightings of dog poop on the paved trail even though there are figure poop bags available was the only negative. Great park!

2021-09-19Very clean park. Has a nice area for individuals to skate board. There is a nice walking trail that is very level that goes completely around the park. State of the art/modern playground. Well kept. Animals on leashes allowed. Right next to Veterans park. Street parking.
