Great park to go on walks alone, or with a friend! Love the pond-- glittery at times, and on other days quite calm. It feels very safe here, as well. Open sight lines, clean, and I always see someone maintaining the area. Restroom areas are decent, but I don't know if that will hold true during the hotter months...
There are exercise stations all over, but many of them need updates (cracked mats, and just basically run down). I hope pet owners are smart enough to keep their pets away from these areas. Who wants to do squats, lunges, push-ups, and other maneuvers, and/or lay their hands on equipment dogs have urinated on??
Watch out for runners and bicyclists. It's nice that most of them call out from behind you to tell them where they plan on passing you-- there have been a few who did not. Also, be aware that you might encounter a coyote here. My friend and I were approached by one two weeks ago. My friend was very disturbed and tried her best to scare it away, but it just kept on coming closer. I told her we should just continue walking and it will eventually leave us-- she thought perhaps it had been fed by others before. Here's a big tip, everyone--DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS! Especially those that are known to be predatory...
If you aren't a runner, biker, or walker, don't fear, because there is a basketball court, a volleyball court, and even soccer and baseball fields! I can't wait to see how this park beautifies when spring comes around. It's already so beautiful and tranquil in the fall and winter! Oh, and don't forget to check out the Xeriscape garden at the dog play pens' end of the park-- there are many trees (some quite wide and tall), gorgeous bushes, and lovely water fountains and bird baths.
