It has a beautiful park. A nice place to bring either your family or just yourself. Nice park for the kids and swings by the water to enjoy the view.

It was peaceful to swing near the water. Be careful of goose poop in the grass though.

Great playground and shelter with bathrooms (in summer). Good winter sledding. This is a ravine park and so its sheltered from winter winds and summer sun. Its a good place to run the kiddies before bedtime.

A great place to visit had a nice picnic there but dont walk up the road that leads into the neighborhood from the park because it is a private road in private property but not labeled.

Very nice park in a beautiful neighborhood. I went on a Thursday afternoon, and took a nice walk along the Fox River. Park has a nice playground for kids and lots of mature trees. Paved trail is great for biking. Interesting upscale homes nearby make for a nice walk.

It was very relaxing. Sat on the swing with my friend & enjoyed my day with him.

Its a nice place you can go to and enjoy a good amount of different activities. For instance there I a wooded trail you can walk on, a river to fish from or bring your boat and take a calming stroll down the river. There is a play ground and a pavilion, enough space to run around and play a few different games.

Its been my thinking spot for over 20 years. One side is near the river with mature trees a load of wildlife and the other side Is a stunning walk threw the reven.

Great quiet out-of-the-way place to do some of your favorite recreational drugs. Okay so Im just kidding - dont do drugs! Theres no high like the Most High and Jesus has a better more Wholesome Way for you.

Its a cute park down by the river, but secluded. It wouldnt be place I would let my kids go alone due to the water across the street from the park and the woods in back of the park. Its very shady so it can get a little buggy. The play equipment is pretty nice and the bathrooms are clean. Had a picnic there a couple of times, and there were lots of bees, but that can be a common occurrence when picnicking just about anywhere.

I watched a guy fall into the water... He tried to get close to the water by the ramp, and its slippery due to having a slight pond scum surface over the concrete, and he slipped and fell right down into the water. His girlfriend was in shock and looked more embarrassed than him. Due to this event I am ranking this park 5 Stars if on my next visit someone does not fall in the water I will reassess my review of this park.

This is a quaint little park, it does not have the best jungle jims or the newest equipment, but it is clean and well maintained park. Peabody has quite a bit of open area where you could throw a Frisbee or football, but they also have a bit of equipment to play on also. All in all its a 4 star park. Fun for the whole family.

It was beautifulI got a little frightened when a unsavory looking man appeared to started following me and my dog. My dog kept whining and turning around to look at him. When I went toward the apartments he seemed to have turned away.

Very nice park for the younger kids our 4 yr old had a great time. Bathrooms were extremely clean. Would give 5 stars but would like to have a bit more guarding by the river.

This is one of my favorite places to walk or bike to during the Summer. There is a large playground, a basketball court, sheltered area for events and activities, and its next to the Fox River, so its great place to fish as well. I love sitting next to the river and relax, watching ducks and geese and once in a while watch eagles fly around.

Very sad to hear that the trail by Peabody Park going to the cemetary is now closed. I grew up walking this trail ever so often and was pretty upset to find it closed and under surveillance.

Peabody has green space, a play area, access to the Fox River, and plenty of picnic options. I often see people fishing, sitting together, reading, or walking near the river.

I like fishing here when I dont want to travel far. The only thing I really dont like is all the poo from the geese in the summertime.
