It's a nice park to take an afternoon still or chill at one of the many picnic spots

Great local park with a skateboard ramp, basketball court, baseball field and a lot of open spaces. There are even trails to hike in the woods. Highly recommended.

I only live five minutes away, which is good because my two-year-old son demands to come here every day. It has three different play areas, along with two rows of swings. He always finds something to play with when we are here. Everyone we've run into is friendly, and the park seems safe and well-maintained. There are one or two homeless people who may sleep at the bus station, but they are no bother. Plenty of fat squirrels live here, too. It is a fairly quiet park, and there is a lot of space to play. Very cool!

I really like to visit this place with my family during the weekend. The children can find fun places to play hide and seek and run around and it just looks beautiful. Really enjoy taking long walks in this park. Occasionally I come here with my husband to use the tennis courts, although I have to say sometimes you have to wait for a free one.

One of the biggest parks around, it serves a huge portion of the Norfolk community. Pros: nicely equipped with playgrounds, basketball courts and tennis courts. There is a nice skate park too. It's has a lot of shade which makes it very nice in the summer. Cons: Because the park serves a big part of the middle-lowet class community it could use extra free perks for those who can't afford much. It would be very welcome if a splash pad was installed for the summer days and the BMX tracks could be restored to get something more for the teens.
