The park is fabulous on a hot day. The swimming pool looks clear and wonderful. Plenty of areas along the water to sit and have a picnic. Fun areas for the kids. Beautiful trees and views of the water.

It's so beautiful! We have dogs, and they love the trail, and the walk by the river. The trees, grass, are maintained so nicely. It's truly a sweet sight! ❤️❤️

Great place to practice your disc golf form. Grass is cut short and the pecan trees make long tunnels with plenty of lines and elevation changes. Would make a great disc golf course it has the same bones as Starke park in Seguin. Wind from the south perpendicular to the lines in the trees makes practicing left and right winds easily with back and forth throws.
