I go nearly every day to the park to let my dog get some exercise. She loves to chase the squirrels and just run amok for the fun of it. It's a great little park located in a nice neighborhood and close to Canoas Elementary School. Great for kids to run and play and for adults to walk, play tennis or barbecue. The park has lots of picnic tables and barbecue pits and little kids playgrounds.

Attached to a school, has a pathway through several streets. Popular for walkers. There is a large field behind the elementary school, it is not fenced off, do not use the field during school hours. There is a sand-based playground, and a separate grass area on the opposite side of the school field, separated by the sidewalk that cuts through the middle of the park. There are picking tables alongside the walkway as well. There is a sign prohibiting dogs off leash, but the pathway is a popular place to walk dogs, and after school hours, the park is a community gathering area that locals bring their dogs to run off leash. There is a separate playground on the far side of the school field, it can be used after school hours by the community.

Very spacious, quite park. Never crowded which is why we love it. Very nice quiet neighborhood. Just sad about the graffiti sometimes.

Nice, pretty secluded park. Generally well maintained, plenty of parking. Drinking fountains but no restrooms.

It is okay , it unofficialy became a dog park , everytime we go , dogs are unleashed which is not legal and makes me uncomfortable to have unleashed dogs around me.
