They now have signs up that says pets cannot be on fields which is a shame as it’s fun to allow your dog to run off leash and catch the ball. Complaints came from the baseball teams that play. Definitely will be making a complaint about this as they should accommodate everyone and build a dog park. Us dog owners have dogs versus playing on a useless baseball team that becomes annoying at night from hearing all the yelling!

Went to vote today. Line moved at a good steady pace. The ppl were very helpful and right there if you needed anything. The instructions were simple and easy to follow. As a disabled person everyone there made it easy for me to navigate to and in the voting booth and with submitting my ballot. Lots of smiles and pleasant, polite poll workers!

Great park! Has a skate park, playground, public pool, tennis court, horseshoe pits, and lots of grassy fields. Clean and easy to get to.

This is a beautiful park! Large trail for walking, jogging and riding bikes. Pool and many places to throw the football or play soccer. Great for the whole family!!!

The best park for work out areas and walking. Activities, volleyball, basketball, tennis and lots of area for kites, kickball, soccer and of course, a play ground. Not to mention, areas for bbq. My favorite park!

Its a very nice park . I would go when and this pandemic is over. But the thing I dont understand Everybody I saw out there they had no mask on people are really not taking this covid 19 serious. After skating, playing tennis everybody breathing on each other. . I wonder how many more new cases Arlington will have? I sat in the car with the windows up..

Lots of room for my puppies to run around

Great space but there is just about no lighting on the trails and I can only go later in the day so I deal with that quiet a bit

An amazing place for the community to get together for outdoor activities such as cycling, tennis, skating, swimming and much more.

I took my 10 year old son here for the first time tonight. We wont be going back. The park itself is nice. Lots of great ramps, transitions, and mix of ramp/bowl vs street. The problem was with the skaters. There was trash everywhere. The trashcan itself was broken. The kids there, a couple in their early 20s, some teenagers, and one kid who was probably 10-11, were incredibly vulgar. The youngest kid had such a foul mouth he cussed nearly every other word (being cool, I imagine). The other kids werent quite as bad, but were roughly the same. Especially with the music they were playing. My son was disgusted by then and wanted to leave. I completely agreed. It was unfortunate that such a great park was ruined this way. Trust me, I was one of those kids once myself. I had zero regard for others, respect for property, or other worthy character attributes. I knew it wouldnt help say anything so the only option is to avoid the park altogether. Total bummer.

Kid love it plus it open after dark so it cool out

Kids love this place. Plenty of obstacles to master at the skatepark and can make new friends every time we go.

Very nice park with ball fields, large green spaces, playgrounds, bathrooms, and a skate park.

Nice full-size skate park... Smooth and good for any wheels.

Me and my husband went to vote on yesterday. Everyone was very nice and helpful.

Very clean and lots of lights ..feels safer than ever...

Nice park. Lack of shade kinda makes the park a lot less tolerable. On top that, it was a little messy. Its a good park nonetheless.

This place rules... great park for beginners or pros...

Took my baby met my sister here..first time beautiful park relaxed and enjoyed family time...lots of good people will be back

Wide Open space. Tennis courts, skate board park and children playground. Plenty of parking, big restroom alot picnic tables...i go there to jog and run...

Best skatepark in arlington

Had a great time with family. Needs cleaned up where disrespectful folks have trashed the place. Lovely trails, including historical sites listed along the trail.

Large park area, tennis courts,skatepark, many larg trees creating a good shaded areas for a nice picnic time, clean, restroom.many park areas.We had agood afternoon.

Hell I miss this park. Best place to be when outdoors with kids, and awsome people to converse with.

Pool, skateboard, playground and so much more. Open from 5:00 am to midnight

Great park with an open grassy area.

Lively place

Safe Family fun friendly community vibe.

New and upcoming skate professional Alex M. Gives skate park two thumbs up while getting his groove on.

Good park, would be nice if the other visitors were better about picking up their trash

Love this park. From the tennus court to skate jump atea to the walking trails

It was a nice day to relax and enjoy the park.

Beautiful atmosphere with lively people. Great for a nice little stroll or a run.

It was neat and clean, had covered play areas, and sidewalks for walking and running.

My kidoes had a blast

Perfect to pass the day.

Went to vote. No line! Woohoo!!

Very clean and kids friendly park with a variety of activities for all ages. The new playground area is so much fun for my kids.

Wonderfully relaxing!

New expanded park and an awesome skate park. Plenty of room for a soccer, football, or baseball game on the diamonds, play tennis on the courts, flying kites, playing frisby, or use the walking path. Great for the whole family.

Very good place to relax and have a quiet time especially in the evening.

Awesome place to take a family for an relax walk outing in a big city.

I enjoy taking my kids is clean and friendly environment

Nice sidewalks and very clean.

Cool park for walks, tennis, skateboard, baseball, soccer, and picnics

Large spacious park with various amenities. skateboard and bike friendly. I would mention rollerblading but Im the only person in the state with a pair. cool foliage and interesting variety of birds for those who like the feathery friends. the creek is bordered by beautiful flowering plants and there are several scenic spots to stop for a picnic. they even have horseshoe pits set up at the north end....although I think that is technically another park on paper even though I dont see a line anywhere.

Not to much to see just a big field

Very long walking path good for long walks

Ive not been to Vandergriff Park in over Twenty Years. Im so amazed how its changed and all it has to offer now! This hopefully will help in more people getting out, and being more active....

If youre looking for a skate park, a playground, or sports fields, this is a great place for those things. There are even a couple of covered pavilions for events. But if you want a nice, natural shaded place to walk around and enjoy nature, this is not that kind of park. It is predominantly wide open grassy fields. The pavilions are strategically located to give you shade while you supervise your kids on the playground or at the skate park, but dont come in expecting to find a nice bench under a tree somewhere where you can meditate in nature.

Very nice park. We will be back.

Perfect weather with a nice cool breeze. Very clean park and very friendly people

My dog loved it!

Nice park. Pretty steady flow of people. Great calestinics park ... Not the park for you if you want to find somewhere secluded .

A lot of grass, no dinosaurs or dragons

Honestly LOVED the skatepark

Best skatepark in DFW on Crip

Nice place to go and chill out.

Nice park, love the walking trail

Went to a town hall meeting there, the employees were very helpful directing me where to go. Arlington Parks and Recreation is an Amazing asset to The Dream City.

Well kept, nice place to hang out for lunch. There is a pavilion that you can sit in to get out of the sun during lunch. Other times it may be reserved for an event.It also has a skate park that looks like fun. Rails, concrete features, half pipe, etc.

Went to Texas Severe Storms Association meeting. Looks like a nice park. Was at Bob Duncan C.onvention Center.

Beautiful and safe place to walk, jog, and other sports.

Full size bowl, fun snake run and little things in between to link lines

This park is named after the Vandergriff Family. Although not a founding family, they helped shape modern-day Arlington into what it is today.Vandergriff Park is a sprawling site. The site includes Vandergriff Park, the Bob Duncan Center (for events), and Marrow Bone Spring Park. Inside the area are baseball / softball fields, tennis courts, a swimming pool, a skatepark, walking / biking trails, a pavilion, picnic areas, large fields for enjoyment, public art, and local history. It’s a diverse area.While in the park, look for the Vandergriff “V” -- it’s blue and 30 feet tall, so it shouldnt be hard to miss. (It’s between the skatepark and swimming pool if you need a hint.) The giant V used to be at the Vandergriff Chevy Dealership, formerly located at the corner of Collins and Division Streets in present-day downtown. There’s an informative sign near the foot of the V telling a little about the Vandergriffs, but the sign itself could use a facelift.If you’re into local history, take the short walk to Marrow Bone Spring Park. It’s north of the tennis courts and skatepark, past the bordering residential street of Timberview Lane. There’s a Texas Historical Marker there at Johnson Creek.While not one of my favorite parks, it’s a nice place and offers a little something for everyone.

Great place to vote

Easy place to vote

Need more lights for kids to play in the fields.

Good park but a lot of people

We love this place

Some of my greatest moments has been here. This park change my life.

Beautiful and silent I love the place

Near our house and now it has a great walking trail. It only took 40 years. I do wish humans would be better caretakers

The skatepark is amazing.

Nice quiet park

Very nice and clean family park, tennis courts, huge outdoor pool and cardio trail. Needs more trees for those hot sunny days. Its a nice park though.

Man this is a awesome park. We were there for a softball tournament and there was everything that you cod need for your other siblings to so

Was peaceful and clean.

I love going to and taking my kid to this skatepark. The people are generally real friendly and chill while the skatepark itself is pretty awesome as far as ramps, hills, dips and all that, good stuff. Its our favorite skatepark to go to for the people and the fun

This park is amazing to run or walk

Very nice area and park!

Place to get fresh air.

Voted at the Bob Duncan Center was a good experience.

Im a skater and I really love it here

A lot of area to exercise and for the kids to play

Enjoyed a beautiful 50th birthday in the banquet hall. Excellent service, space and clean up. The building is surrounded by beautiful grassy grounds for picnics and relaxation.

What is there not to love about this park?! It is so huge and has so much grass area, you can do everything from birthday parties to football games with the family! We go because of the skatepark, my daughter is a huge skater! Also, they have a huge public swimming pool off to one side of the park that is only $3.50 a person! Thats one of the lowest prices in town with one of the cleanest and nicest pools around! Also, the bonus is the track that goes all around the park for runners and joggers and walkers!

I dont know anything about this park or neighborhood, but I love the message of this monument.

I love this park! They have playgrounds, bike trails, places to play soccer, the science center. Anything you need. Plus they have restrooms and porta pottys.

Real nice park close by to SHHS (2mi)! The walking loops are wide, the grass is trimmed. I think there’s an old cross country course in it, so the grass area and walkways are perfect for running. The walkway itself is not shaded, but there’s trees you could set up picnics under. Skate park, baseball fields, and tennis courts open to public as far as I know. Bone Marrow trail branches off to the right of the park—it’s a small section but there’s plenty of shade there.

Dislike since they removed all playground equipment the original. Used to go here thousands of times back in the 80s & 90s

Its so nice except the far that there can be some shady people here every now and then. And make sure to never come at night because it can get real dark because there is no lights.

All skill levels welcome

Nice walking trail 1.1 miles

Good park for the surrounding community. Tennis courts in good shape and not crowded most of the time. Nice walking/jogging path with benches and shade. 1 lap is right at a mile distance and terrain changes presents two different courses depending on which direction you follow the loop. Havent used pool or rec center but those are there as well. Some grass areas can be a little uneven so you have to watch your ankles. Havent used playground or skate park but they appear to be nice as well.

Sat in my car and watched the sun go down. It was nice out today. A little chilly.

Easy access, open space. Long walking route. Better if they add some free hand exercise tools.

Good

Rented the Bob Duncan Center for an event and it was fantastic. Mr Abbott stayed in contact and made sure the day was perfect

Lawns are well kept. Looked beautiful on a misty fall morning.
