Even though it is a small park, it is still a lovely place in which to walk. There are places to sit and it is an ideal place to read a book. There is a nice pond where one can see lots of ducks and geese.

A beautiful little country park. Lots of microhabitats for wildlife. Incredibly friendly ducks and rocks for the children to climb. It's small but it's very pleasant. Lots of hidden trails to play in

Neat little park in the midst of a fairly busy neighbourhood. Almost like a green oasis. Pleasant place to relax. No entry fee. Parking available close by. Nice visit.
