Great park for a day of outdoor activities! The playground has plenty of fun equipment for kids to run around and get some energy out. The basketball courts always have some great games going on and theyre of fine quality. Plenty of baseball fields and even a short path to walk or run down. This place has been here forever and its just great!

Half of the time I come here this place is closed. They have very limited selection of snacks other than the fact that they have a lot of candy. The candy is overpriced of course. Three different flavors of ice cream, tons of soft drinks and only hotdogs and nachos and cheese are what is for food. That concession stand is located at the far end of the park next to the parking lot. If you are on the baseball fields it is a very long walk to get here. The bathrooms are also located in the same building and are extremely dirty. The floors are so dirty that I would not want to even step in there with my shoes on. There are no paper towels and the dryers do not work. The park itself is really good however. They have lots of tennis courts basketball courts and soccer fields.

Great park with lots to do. Id like it more if street parking around it were less restrictive; the park itself is so big it can be hard to get where youre going if youre not close to the lot.

This is a great park to go play basketball volleyball or soccer. There’s enough parking lot room for cars so there’s always a spot. The bathrooms are always clean. The volleyball court is sand and the net is always well maintained. This park is in a great location Downers Grove. For any sport this is a great park to go to.

They also have tennis courts, miniature golf, a walking path with workout stations, outdoor workout equipment, volleyball courts, and fields for a variety of team sports.

This is a great place to visit if you are looking to relax, play, or exercise. It has some nice walking paths as well as a robust set of basketball and volleyball courts and a soccer field. The playgrounds are big and there was a roving security guard when we visited keeping tabs on the place. We felt safe and were able to enjoy ourselves for several hours.

Loved McCollum park! Super fun and huge place!! Has a couple soccer fields and tennis courts and baseball field and basketball courts and playgrounds for kids! Was my first time there but was a really fun experience! It was big enough where everyone has their own space and you don’t feel crowded. We were actually able to do a bible study with some friends without being distracted and having people loud and around us. Really enjoyed my time there.Definitely a good place to go if you have a big group of people and need a lot of space.

This is a great park, with lots of different areas for various sports (soccer, baseball, basketball, beach volleyball). There are also two nice childrens playgrounds: one for younger kids and one for older kids. They are high quality and the kids enjoy them. There are lots of paths, with great trees and lots of grass around. There is also an outdoor gym which is pretty good. There is also a nearby mini golf, which is fun. There is usually enough parking since they have a few parking lots.

McCollum Park is a very well planned park. There are restrooms with running water and flush toilets in the center of the four ball fields. Strategically-placed tree offer shade on hot, sunny days and there is a drinking fountain located by the childrens Park play area. Exercise equipment is available as well as boxes available to play bean bag games! I was here for baseball game but I will return to use some of the other facilities!

The Jeffrey Michael Dehlin Memorial Foundation held our 1st annual 5K Run/1K Walk at McCollum Park on Sunday, October 6th. We had a wonderful experience with the Downers Grove Park District, the price was affordable, there is a large pavillion to work under for registration, running paths, and a lovely park. Because we held our event on a Sunday morning, the additional population was minimal, which kept the pathway clear. We will definitely use McCollum Park again!

Review №78

I cannot tell you how many hours Ive spent here first as a kid and then as a coach. If youre trying to play tennis here, it will be hard to find a court after 6PM in the summertime. But its a great community and people are very friendly so dont be afraid to ask for a court. Or to join/play doubles.
