Open space for passing a ball all the while someone else plays soccer picnic tables parking right off the street which is nice considering. golf on the other side of the landmark building. That light tho

Great place for kids. Compact playground with lots of area to play and run. Spots to sit and rest or to eat in the shade.

This place really needs some employees.... My food was hot and good but it took them a while to place my order and the pass it to me. The lady that was working drive through also had to handle the front of the store so she was really busy!! She needs some help!!

I love to run in this park. It was so peaceful and quiet. Highly recommend running on the roads in this neighborhood. It is beautiful

Went with my son. He had a blast doing all types of thing from running on the open grass, tennis, soccer to sliding and climbing or going on a mysterious adventure through the wooded path. Had a great time and would go again.

A very good playground for children and large fields for frisbee or other field sports and a small creek for children to explore in as well as restrooms. Otherwise small parking lot and not many other amenities.

Forest hills park is H U G E ! Great place to have a picnic. You can bring family and friends for a mini gathering as well.

Lots of grass and trees. 2 thumbs up.

I always enjoy going to this park its quite clean I have breakfast in the park 5 out of 7 days a week I sit in my car and its nature me and breakfast especially its my coffee time it doesnt matter what the weather th her is

Nice big trees. We had a picnic. It was a beautiful day.

Plenty of open fields to play in. Several tennis courts with night lightening available.

Garbage everywhere, dirty inside out. Good potential to be nice but management is awful.

Great park that has a lot of good fields. Nice playground. Theres a big pavilion, too. A cool creek runs through the middle of the park.

This review is for the sprayground only. Its small and muddy everywhere especially in the grassy areas around the sprayground. Not a lot of space for many children. You can easily slam into another child. Not a lot of equipment for water play. The padding is not concrete and its uneven and someones child can trip and fall. Although my kids had fun I will not revisit.

Nice park I had a great time with my daughter and her classmates.

Very clean and large area for playing and running.

Nice park for children and adults

This park has a lot of open spaces so folks can distance and fellowship.

Its gotten a bit run down since Ive been there a few years ago. Added a new umbrella and older protected swing that was nice. Splash pad needs help on the ground cover. Its not on yet. With NC weather it should be sooner than Memorial day. Bathrooms are eehh...

Its a nice park with a large shelter, playground and small seasonal spray ground. The playground is good for 2-8 year olds. The public pool next to it is not great and usually to warm to be refreshing.

Good place for family time. It had shady areas, benches, tables, plenty of grass space,a big net, handicap swing, fun little park for kids and families. I enjoyed it.

Friendly environment, diverse group of people and clean site

This park is great during the hot summer days. They have water feature for kids to play in and cool off. Not a big water area but its still fun. The park itself is nice and has shaded seating areas along with lots of beautiful grass areas to run around and play with anything you bring. Lots of fun!!

Its a great park with a bunch of open grassy space. It is prone to flooding though.

Very well kept, kids had a great time and are wore out!

I love this park. I take my 5yr cuzzo here, she love the water pads and play ground

Its close to town & fine for a quick picnic. Its not a hiking kinda park.

Always a fun place to go. Used the building for the first time for a party. Staff was very helpful.

Nice tennis courts. Convenient parking.

First time here didnt know it had a splash pad, great but needs proper drainage

What a bust! The splash pad floor in in horrible condition. The tubes are rusted. There’s mud everywhere. Playground is old too. The pool is not open. From the 3 bathrooms we tried, only 1 was open and it was gross! For a family friendly city this place disappointed so much!

Large park in a central location of Durham, lacks amenities and distinguishing characteristics but is simple and enjoyable. Has a large shelter building with grills and dingy bathrooms, a couple different playground structures with swings and what appears to be a splash pad but I’ve never seen it used as such. Parking is fine and can easily get to it off of the American Tobacco trail.

Wonderful! Every year gets better since my childhood, my children, and now I take my grandchildren there for Halloween. Its the best Halloween experience in this town. I love it!!!

FANTASTIC PLACE FOR PARTIES AND BBQ VERY LARGE PLACE TO JUST ENJOY A DAY

Nice open play area for kids & a good size clubhouse for events !

What a great park in a beautiful corner of Durham. We went on a dry hot Saturday morning to enjoy the Sprayground and it was a perfect ten. My 3 year old daughter loved it. The only criticism is that the ground is made of rubber which is fine but it is black so in summer, it gets hot on bare feet. Bring water shoes!

Nice and shady park with a spray area to get wet. Bathrooms close by is a great perk!

My wife, my 5 year old daughter, and myself walked all the way across town to come swim at the park because it says on the website that the pool is open until 5. Its says nothing about being closed for the rest off the season. No good..... Not good service to the public. But other than that i love the park

Frequently there with my kiddos. Love the spray section in the summer. Wish they would redo and clean the large outdoor pavilion. Its a great feature but its very dirty and smells pretty bad. Lots of space and the kids dont get bored at this park. Everyone is very friendly and lots of diversity in terms of people who come here.vit is out go to park.

Spacious, open fields, restrooms, tennis, and play area with fun fountain for kids to splash around and keep cool.

We gave our family reunions at Forest Hill Park it turned out to be good everybody enjoyed they sells keep up the good work Forest Hill

Great family park with lots of trees and kid friendly activities

Nice park.Had the water park. Very clean

My grandsons had a wonderful time at Forest Hill Park.

Love the free concerts and is always a safe fun environment

Forest Hills is a great park. Lots of open space. The only problem is lots of mosquitoes! Other than that its awesome. Bring bug spray.

Old golf course turned into a great city park. Big open fields, beautiful forested riparian buffer around creek, playground structures, picnic pavilion, and more.

This park has shady bits, and during the summer, it also has a water feature. The bathrooms are open to the public, and the toilets are very loud when they flush.

Sprinklers were not turning on.. only reason I went there

I bring my grandchildren every summer

Fun park. Has a nice tennis court, pool, large playground set, and kids sprinkler area. It is also surrounded with large open fields and a walking trail. The field doesnt drain the best and can be muddy at times. Still, there is generally ample room for football, frisbee or just throwing a baseball.

Its a beautiful, expansive, natural park with many trees, a lot of green grass, and a small creek. There are no determined paths to follow. You often find soccer or frisbee football being played, some times in several areas. There is a small parking lot but lots of street parking along the side roads. It is sorely missing a fenced area to be used as a dog park. There are tennis courts, a playground, a public pool, and a spray center.

Like it but need why yall didnt open the pool

The park is nice, lots of shade. A cute mini splash area. The bathrooms however were really, really gross and the soap dispensers were empty.

We love the Sprayground. It is an excellent place to go for hot summer days. Theres also a swimming pool. The restrooms are in connection with a swimming pool. You can use them even if you are not swimming, but only during pool hours.

Came here for a school trip and found out later the tree me and my friends had climbed had been cut down but the lovely memory is enough for a 4 star rating. This place is calm and great for any outdoor activity.=)

We had so much fun!

Was there for a friends birthday. Very pleased with the set up.

All three sections of the park are wonderful to visit and walk through. Great small area for little children to play. Splash area.

ITS A GREAT PARK FOR FAMILY OUTINGS

Clean needs more seating

Our favorite park since we moved to Durham.

I love the setting and the pool and splash pad. But I hate that the library there is gone. It used to be wonderful to go there and select a book to just sit out there under a tree and read.

Nice park, cute walking trail, maybe more adult friendly play stuff could be added.

It was fun. I had a great time with the children. They didnt want to leave. Very nice park and spots for shade and pinics

The kids played at thr sprayground for hours. Appreciate the gazebo and big umbrella for shade. Live the play structure and swings, but they could use some shade in the summer, too.

Went for that splash pad and the kids loved it. Good and safe park.

Serene, nice trees & well maintained

Very nice space, children play together, great place to have parties or just let the kids run !

We loved going there

Great place for canoes, plus free camping for three days total.Check out webpage for free camping

Nice clean park. Has a play area, a shelter for parties, water sprinkler and an affordable public pool.

Great service

The spray ground is awesome. The mosquito spawning pool that forms after rain storms makes it interesting too.

Always a fun group of kids here. My sons really like it.

Huge oak trees, great for reading in the shade. Wide open spaces for frisbee, dogs, picnics. Its beautiful here!

Great place to enjoy with family and friends.

Fun splash pad, swings and playset. I personally love having a gazebo and benches close to the play area.

What is now the Forest Hills neighborhood was created out of the farmland along Third Fork Creek in the 1920s by businessman James O. Cob and Fuller Glass. Large park that includes facilities like Greenway/Trail Access, Grill area,Picnic Shelter,Picnic Tables, Playground (Ages 5-12),Recreation Center,Sprayground (Open for May-October),Swings - Standard,Swings - Toddler (Bucket Swing),Tennis Courts,Water Fountain etc

A good park with plenty of green space for the dogs and some nice tennis courts.

Very nice open space

I can only speak to the tennis courts, but theyre nice. One has a hitting wall and theyre lit for nighttime play

Could use a update on the exterior however it had a great sound system and space for a moderate crowd.

Great place for toddlers and small children to play, as well as open fields for soccer, frisbee or a sunset picnic or to walk your dog.

Teh splash area is a must-try.

Small spray section with loads of space to run and play. Very large covered pavilion and lots of benches. One of our go-to parks year round

Love to come here for what I need.

Great place to be so you can relax

Wonderful park has pool,sprinklers on playground,sandboxes,lots of open space for kids and pets,shelters

Lots of mud but really fun

Graceful park in the middle of the city.

Beautiful park

Beautiful park
