As always Governors Park is a delight. Beautiful landscape quaint restaurants and shops. The free range individuals are even a welcome fact of life.v
This park reflects everything of Denver the good & the bad. From happy pups to homeless people right next door to the most powerful person in CO right next door. Park is always filled with homeless people and they trash the place in the mornings. Pretty sad that its right next to the governors mansion.
Its a nice enough park, fairly tiny, but it merges into the grounds of the Boettcher Mansion. The park is on a significant slope and its lower reaches, covered in concrete, are frequented by Denvers many homeless people; the clueless City cant come up with anywhere better for them to be.
Small quiet park. There is parking if you visit.
We came here to hang out untill our appointment....so were here now
A microcosm of Denver. One Friday morning we witnessed a handful of dogs on the run, a few kids in the playground, several homeless camps, a few joggers, a couple groups of construction workers on a lunch break and a wedding at the very top. Definitely an interesting and lively place.
Besides the homeless lunatics walking around its beautiful
Great hill for sprints
Lots of my fellow homeless throughout the day and night. Dont sleep here after curfew. PD makes regular rounds through the park on foot. I unfortunately was that overnighter back in September 2019!!
Great small park right by the Governors Mansion, good place for walking dogs, fun mix of people passing through, and great spot for seeing weddings at Grant-Humphreys Mansion.
Its a beautiful park Great place to go to people watch. Has a playground but wouldnt take my kids there...unless I wanted to show them why they should never try methamphetamines. I give it a 5 out of 5
Dont go here. It is unfortunately very overrun with homeless groups. Shopping carts. Tarps. Garbage. Shirtless smoking men. Not a great place for kids despite the playset in the middle.
Nice place to take a dog. There will likely be other friendly dogs too meet. And friendly people, too.
A very nice park, however every time I am there the homeless presence is strong and almost always someone is cussing and knocking over trash cans. I always end up leaving pretty quickly.. its too bad because it is a lovely place
Nice quiet little park.
Was just passing by. Picked up a friend at near by apartment. Charlie Browns is a cool place for food & drinks nearby.
Great Place to Protest
This could easily be a 5 star park, but unfortunately there is always an abundance of homeless people here. Youre bound to hear profanities or see violence. My best advice is to go when there is snow on the ground.
Nice place to walk ur dog but at times there are too many dogs. But over all it was a nice place.
A very admirable and lovely park, but I have to hurry and leave pretty quickly because I feel not safe with the behavior of many homeless people in the area...
Love the place
I love how clean this place is. The staff is also really friendly
Its small, but there is a play area and a hill. The landscaping is really well-kept. There is a nice path that goes through. Its in between the governors mansion and Humphreys mansion. Sometimes people let their dogs off-leash and it can be a little over-whelming if you have a small dog.
Its ok. Kinda dirty.
Bennys Restaurant always excellent. & LA Contes ask 4 Sam.
A little park in Capitol Hill, nice place to grab a smoke.
Small city park, nice and open feeling.
Back in the day, G park was THE place to eat n meet! Still is!
Nice place except for all the homeless that get rowdy at times
Beautiful, quiet, clean, lovely park.
Great park asides from the large number of homeless/transients.
It is a disgusting place was nothing but junkies, syringes, and The Losers of life
Great fun park.
Description should say, Cozy park for homeless and mental ill, established to compensation for lack of city and state resources allocated for the needy and helpless.
Too smelly and a very huge amount of homeless people that hang out at govoners park begging for money and food
Is very beautiful (and free). One historic place you must see.
Very clean, quiet and a nice place to relax with your babies or fur babies
Usually overrun with homeless people and have found abandoned lingerie and crack pipes on several occasions. Such a shame because the playground is actually quite nice.
Park is good for walking
Great place if you exercise yourself, your pooch, or your kid. Not much else.
The sea of sleeping bums make this park oddly comforting.
Great little park in cap hill. Always friendly people and dogs running around.
Its such a beautiful park . a great place to be alone. Or take the kids....
Potentially cool.
Great park in town, some sketchy people hang out near the play ground though.
Gorgeous park. Great for families and sunny days!
Porta potty little on the ruff side
Lovely venue. A step back in time.
Always filled with homeless. Wouldnt take your kids there. Cheeseman park is 5 blocks north
Governors Park is a small bit of greenery adjacent to the Governors mansion located between 7th and 8th avenues bounded roughly by Logan and Pennsylvania. There is a small playground with swings and a slide. A lot of dog walkers. Of concern is a growing contingent of mendicants and palliards many under the influence of meth.
Good spot for relaxing outside if you live in the area
So clean and a good family place to hang out
Its a good place to meet
Cause capital hill area sucks
I came in tonight with my friend who practically lives at this cess hole. I was not impressed. Some nasty blonde girl walked the bar like her you know what didnt stink (geez could you at least look like Taylor Swift if you are going to cop an attitude????), and finally got us some beers. While she walked in front of us for the umpteenth time working diligently to serve shots to the folks more in desperately need of attention than us, I had the audacity to ask if I could order a chicken sandwich and she looked at me in disgust, and said, Im busy!!! Places like this that put a girl like that in charge of serving clients like me (I am a CU Boulder graduate, I have a condo uptown and a house up north) make me want to f-ing puke!!! This place caters to frat wannabes and the service just plain sucks. If you were actually hot I may have wanted to endure your bad attitude for up to a minute. Service sucks...this is a great place to forget about being worthy of decent treatment.
Very crowded on game days but good service
Its a tiny thing but nice to relax for a bit but also there are homeless people that camp here sometimes.
Nice pocket park. Not for Frisbee.
Lots of homeless trying to bum your life away... And no hanging hammocks here..
Great place to take your dog
The little hovel of bums need to be cleared by water cannon and riot police. After the stabbing last week, I think its fairly obvious its a safety issue.
Nice
BEWARE OF THE HOMELESS
Sorry to see its closing in November
Non-descript park in the heart of Capitol hill
We got kicked out of here by the cops
Little Oasis
Spot
Cool place
Just a park
The local crack heads who live in the corner of the park need to be removed.
Its an ok park.
At least people who cant tell the difference between the park and the bar get filtered out sometimes!
