Nice and clean. Booked the outside pavilion for my childs birthday . Plenty of space to Park your car, sit and enough equipment to keep all ages entertained. Also has a walking trail and basketball court

We ate lunch in the park. Its nicely layed out so different functions (volleyball, tennis, picnic etc) were not all on top if each other. Nice walking trails too.

Best park in that part of Columbia. The tires are a big hit and a lot of fun with friends!

Nice trail around the edge of the park - one lap is just over half a mile. Tennis courts and basketball for the energetic and a well equipped kids playground.

The house was ok. The accessible bathroom was very tight with a manual chair. A power chair would never have made it. Parking was not the best.

Lot of opens fields to run and play. It has two tennis courts in good condition. A nice full court basketball court. There is also a baseball/kickball field. The gravel trail that goes around the park is great to run or walk on. Plus theres even a small pond to go fishing in if you like!

First time exploring this park, and was delighted at the discovery. Its quite expensive, reminds of Cosmo park back in the day. There are soccer goals set up, picnic tables, restrooms and drinking fountains. Theres about 3 acres of parking, so large gatherings wouldnt be an issue.

Lived across from it for years...Great park

A great place to gather with air conditioning, kitchen, refrigerator, plenty of space, clean. It was very loud in the space we had set up with tables. Difficult to have a conversation. We had about 25 people. Drapes or curtains or other sound absorbing devices would help, even if you have to bring them yourself.

I love getting worked out by the little one, they keep moving on the run. Then I get home a sleep like a baby. Thanks Jesus Christ for the babys help. I love the workout.

Nice park with a lake. Columbia does a wonderful job making sure green spaces are developed, and maintained, making Columbia very livable. The sales taxes you pay are well spent in this regard.

Love this place!! Weve had our family reunion and our Family Christmas here for a long time and hope to continue coming here for many more, even though we lost our glue Mary Ann Caldwell a year ago. She is truly missed by us all. R.I.P.

Review №33

Love this little park for gatherings; we’ve rented the house for several events and it has been perfect. The house was our headquarters, with a full kitchen, tables and chairs, and the park has a full playground, ball field and trail, among other things. The pavilion tends to be the spot for games or gift opening, giving us plenty of space for active kids.

Nice park, on the small side, terrible parking. Went for a party and there wasnt nearly enough parking for everyone. Very frustrating.

Nice little park to walk dogs

Rock Quarry Park has just a little of almost everything found at the much larger Cosmopolitan Park, but on the south side of Columbia. As a result, it can be a much better option for a quick trip to the park with kids.

Review №39

My kids call this the Tire Park. Playground is great for multiple ages. There is sand volley ball and a short limestone trail. The sand box varies on condition but my kids usually have fun playing here. It gets full sun and can be intense on windy days. Great place for large groups as the pavilion has a high capacity.

Nice place. Weve had our family reunion here several times. You can rent the house for a few hours if you like. Has playground for the kids or play a little baseball or volleyball if you like. As another person said, getting in/out can be hard sometimes. Grindstone Parkway is one of the major routes in Columbia.

Nice park but there was an abandoned mattress.

Review №45

Lovely little park on the south side of Columbia. Its a little tricky to get into of youre coming from the east in heavy traffic but its doable. They have everything a person of any age needs at a park. Very nice and large playground equipment area. There is an outdoor picnic shelter you are able to rent out for parties. In the back there is a large field with a trail around it which can obviously be used for anything and everything you can imagine. Also included there is a house, which in the past was able to be rented out and used for parties. In high school several friends rented the house for birthdays and graduation events and I believe that is still an option.

Its a pretty good playground to take the kids to but we did notice that after the rain, a huge mud pit formed in the middle. It would be nice to see some renovations done to eliminate this problem.
