Beautiful park, very picturesque surroundings. Plenty of interesting flora and fauna. Thank you Columbia Parks and Recreation! Well kept and clean, I will visit again. The disc golf course is challenging and fun, I and members of my family drove an hour and a half to play here. An oak tree similar to the angel oak on Johns Island in Charleston, the pond with the fountain and aquatic birds, herds of deer running across open fields lent themselves to a visit not soon forgotten. Kudos to all.

I love this park. Its clean, has trails and a lake with geese, turtles and fish. You can sit to relax or even bring your own food and eat there. Great park!!

For the part of town this is a great hidden gem. Great place for disc golf going on walks and finding some wildlife.

Was a nice park until they moved some of the disc golf nets to new locations. Ruined the spot under the big beautiful oak tree by placing one of the nets under the tree. Whoever thought it was a good idea to place disc golf nets on the main trails didnt think it through. And not to mention the rude disc golf players that you will sometimes come across that intentionally go out of their way to make walking the trails less than enjoyable.

Nice park for tennis and frisbee. Walking too. Not really any shelters but does have some picnic tables. And restrooms! They keep them clean.

Nice park! I thought it would be bigger, with more walking trails. Theres basically 1 loop around the pond. But probably 15-20 tennis courts!

Mostly for tennis and disc golf. Has a nice lake for some fishing, trails through the woods too.

We really enjoy going to this park. There are lots of things to see and do. You can walk, run and bike on the trails, watch wildlife around the water, play frisbee golf, take a hike, play tennis or any number of games in the wide open spaces near the entrance. There are bathrooms near the water/tennis courts. You can feed the ducks too- just make sure not to take bread. We take frozen small veggies to feed the turtle, fish and ducks. It’s also a great backdrop for family photos.

The best park in the immediate Columbia area, it is worth the drive to it from downtown. Great disc golf course, some beautiful oaks, and a nice place for a walk. It also has a ton of tennis courts, a kayak/canoe friendly pond, and some nice open fields (not completely flat).

Beautiful park with nice walking trails. Always feel safe and comfortable there. The pond loop is 1/2 mile and sometime disc golfers are on the trail but I’ve never had a problem. My go to park!

A somewhat hidden gem. Unless you live in the Lower Richland area, you may not have visited or even know about Southeast Park. Situated just off of 378/76, it feels like you are further out into nature than that. Well done walking trails and the best disc golf course in the area, its worth a visit.

Frisbee golf, tennis and walking trails. Dog friendly on leash. Just has not had much funding to keep it updated which is unfortunate as it fills a nice outdoor need for the community

Review №26

Nice tennis courts (hard courts and clay courts): parking is a bit far making a bit of a walk down a paved path to each court, but the courts are in good shape / new. There aren’t enough benches to sit between sets during a match though. Overall, the tennis facility here is very nice.

I would never go back there again when someone ask me about it I will tell them to find another park. I have never been treated so bad in a public place. I was almost attacked by a dog and was called names In my 72 years of life I have never been called. So you can have that park.

Nice and quiet place for a nice walk or just to chill out... Would be even better to have a playground for the kids to get enjoyment too... All got to enjoy the turtles and fish

Great park for dog walking on leash

Review №33

Great tennis courts -10 years ago. Deferred maintenance, threadbare blue top and missing between-court benches make SEP a worn-out memory of seasons past. Your balls and shoes will take a beating. A confident, large, and plentiful Canadian goose population pose an additional threat to your shoes. Watch your step as you disembark from the parking lot to the courts. Play ball!

I have been told to be cautious here but I have never ran into any problems here. There is always a ranger at the ranger station or walking around the park. There are multiple paths, disc golf, a huge field to have a party in or play sports, and picnic tables scattered throughout. There is also a small bridge where you can look over and see fish and turtles. They do allow you to fish here within regulations, and their are tennis courts on the grounds above the path. There is a restroom area, where you also fine bowls left out for your pups to drink from. At the ranger station you can often find tennis balls left there for use.I love taking my dogs here as well as my kids it is close by and good when you need to burn off some energy.

Located off Hazelwood rd in southeast Columbia. This is a great place to go with kids and pets. There are lots of walking trails, several tennis courts, outdoor meeting areas, and they have a frisbee golf course. We have often used the landscape areas for great family photos. There is a pond but no fishing. This park is under the care of city of Columbia parks and recreation.

Park is great and shaded. Very clean atmosphere and has a map to help you with disk golf course. Park has lots if cools things to do.

Review №63

This place is awesome! Clean bathrooms, thats not the best part but noteworthy for a park. The water was clean, except for the shopping cart but the fish seemed to like the reef affect. The ducks are friendly but dont feed them! The turtles, so many turtles, they will follow you (you walk, they swim) and I thought that was rather nifty; tracker turtles exist, the things you learn! So, go for a walk, a picnic, lunch, disc golf, shenanigans... The possibilities are many, taste the rainbow! Disclaimer: Skittles not included.
