I enjoy visiting this park when Blue Springs hosts The Music in the Park Summer Concert Series. The concerts are very enjoyable and they are always scheduled on a Sunday. Other than that, this is a very relaxing park to visit.

Great park with things to do for all ages. There are two large playgrounds with play structures. A sand volleyball court, too. Two pavilions for family reunions, work parties, church groups, etc. A path goes all the way around the pond for a lunch or evening walk. Beware the goose poop, though! The park serves as an arboretum as many of the trees are labeled. Also, for the Pokemon Go gamers, there are several gyms, lots of pokestops, and tons of Pokemon to catch.

Absolutely amazing park..small but mighty green space in western blue springs I think..from the little creek ponds actually live fish and frogs etc floating living around and plenty of game birds thriving in this little town..parks clean and well maintained..tennis, baseball areas to blow off steam..nice benches to relax and feel nature also the arbor society has plaques with tree info about the breed how much $$ it saves by being planted there the size shape etc incredible knowledge..I dont live in Missouri I live in Cali we have excellent parks just like this one..ty to the city and the town for keeping this gem for us.

A beautiful little park with play areas for families, a walking path, gazebo, and volleyball court. The pond makes a beautiful background to a nice day of sitting in the shade, as long as you dont mind sharing space with the resident geese.

Plenty of park for everyone. I took a stroll with my 95yo mama and she didnt feel rushed or hurried. Watched some tennis before we left the area. A nice place to unwind!

Very cool park! Recently installed new playground. Theres also a cool pond with sculptures and fountains in it. Several covered shelters with picnic tables etc. Tennis courts and restrooms as well.

Nice park, way to many people walking while they text or playing Pokemon Go. Why go to this beautiful park if you are just going to leave your face in your phone. Restrooms and geese who dont know how to use them. Watch what your stepping in or SARS-CoV-19 will be the least of you problems. Jeff L-8 Google Guide.

First time here and was impressed. Easy to forget that youre in the middle of Blue Springs. The new play ground was amazing. Excited about doing some more exploring to check out the whole park. Sounds cheesy, but having places like this makes me proud to live in Blue Springs.

Great little park. A couple playground areas, one very recently renovated and very nice, the other on the older side but still fun for kids to play on. The little lake is nice for a walk. The tennis and basketball courts make it even nicer for people to come out and be active.

This place was pleasant. My wife and I took a stroll aroud the place and hung out for a bit. Seems like a fairly decent spot to kinda relax a bit and just enjoy being outside.

This little park is a lot of fun for my toddler. Theres a huge portion of playground specifically for small children. Geese everywhere. Its a nice place for a leisurely stroll. Clearly the park is kept up well; there were a group of strapping men doing some maintenance while we were there.

Its a small park, but the park is well maintained. Theres a small trail, two playgrounds, tennis courts and a picnic area. It also has a short walking trail. Its a small park, but had enough to do.

My wife, my son, I went to Rotary Park for Music in the park. We joined up with other family that went and had a great time. The big play area is great for my son. He lives climbing all over the jungle gym. The music was good too. The staff even planned to have an ice cream truck there while the event was going on. Yeah! I love ice cream. It was a great evening. I usually go here when there is some kind of event going on because I live closer to another park in blue springs, but this was a great outing.

I love to walk here year-round. I get irritated when they shut off the bathrooms too early. Fortunately its October, is 73°, and the bathrooms are open today. The park was super busy. The restrooms were cleaner than usual and everything else looked really nice and mowed and cleaned up. This is my favorite Park in Blue Springs. Ive lived here for 30 years.

The new addition to the park is really nice. It would be better if there was more shade in that area, but the new toys are pretty cool. No swings anywhere? Kinda odd, but still a nice park overall.

Pretty close between 4 and 3 stars. The park itself is pretty good, the trail is very rough and needs a resurfacing badly. The restroom facilities have a1/2 roof therefor if it rains everything is soaked.

This is a very nice park with a walking trail around the perimeter and a large lake with geese that waddle around the park honking at everyone. theres a shelter house and nice gazebo and several playgrounds. there are also a couple tenis courts and horseshoe pits. the park is conservation friendly having planted many trees throughout the park and labeled them with educational info about the type of tree it is. they have a program in the summer called music in the park and on Sunday evenings they have different live bands come play. *bonus* if youre a Pokemon go fan, the park trails are loaded with pokestops and gyms.!!

This place is beautiful and offers two different playgrounds depending on the level of interest of your child (the newer one is pretty tall and can be daunting to littles). Theres a walking trail around the little pond and plenty of places for a picnic. Theres a wooden bridge that would make for a pretty picture taking spot come spring.However, the trash buildup in the water runoff needs to be addressed and theres been a group of older children visiting every time weve been who have a very colorful vocabulary with no concern to conceal the language around smaller children at the park.

Review №62

Really cool little playground in the front, but the goose poo on every square inch of the park makes a stroll in the park turn into a nauseating walk on eggshells trying to avoid it on the sidewalks, even grass! Strange that you are required to pick up after your dog, yet goose poo the size of dog poo is literally everywhere! Who would even be able to tell if your dog pooed?! After moving to Missouri, I learned that geese are not an asset to a park! Also, no swings or built in seating in the gazebo. I would not recommend this park, unless going to the playground is your goal.

It is supposed to be a non smoking park yet there was a man sitting smoking a cigar right next to the kids play area. And then there was a man who kept walking standing just watching the kids play doing circles it was a very uneasy feeling.

Love the walking track, and it is a great place to play Pokemon if you are into that (multiple gyms and stops). There are two playgrounds, one that was recently updated. My 1.5 year has fun at both. I like the pond in the center and watching the ducks and geese.

Been to this little park many times over the years. It just keeps getting better. Upgrades to the play areas, well maintained grounds and paths, and a great place for tennis. Even a solo court you can practice alone.
