What a beautiful park! Lovely walking path, lots of grassy areas for yoga or tag, and a great playground. A beautiful and large fountain lends calming audio background, and well-maintained landscaping and sculpture make it so pretty!

First time there. Very nice park. Clean. Nice place to go for a walk. Only negative was the pond was completely covered with moss/algae?? Gross!

Great place for strolling or walking your dog. Lake covered in alge. Really awful.

The largest park in Edwardsville and relatively new. 42 acres of paved walking paths, pavilions, a couple of small ponds, a playground and a dog run. This park will really be something special in 20 something years when all of the trees start to mature. Plenty of space to do just about anything you could want to do in a public park!

My dog and I had fun walking the park. They had a bowl of water by the water faucet which was nice for her to get a drink.

I enjoy this park. Not too many people visit, and feels like you have the whole gorgeous park to yourself. Bring some fish/turtle food feed the fish and turtles in the pond.

Review №14

I loved the walking paths and we had a great time feeding the fish in the pond, but I was a little disappointed by the dog park because there wasnt a lot of grass. It was mostly dirt and sand. Their doggy waste stations were well stocked though, which is always good to see even though I bring my own bags!

This park is spotless and beautiful. Everyone was friendly and had pleasant conversations.I only wish everyone would keep their dogs on leashes. None of the dogs were mean or threatening but I do get a little anxious around dogs I dont know. The owners were very accommodating and calmly introduce d their dogs to me and allowed me to pet and play with them reducing my stress.I was very please with their response when I stated my uneasiness.

While they could use a bigger playground this place has a lot to offer.MemorialsBenchesWalking trailDog parkBasketball courtsVolleyball courtsLarge pond with fishCovered group areas with large BBQ grills (like you see at most parks)This is just one of many parks around the Edwardsville/Glen Carbon area, so stop by and enjoy. If only one negative, it can be out of the way for some since its somewhat out of the way.Thank you City of Edwardsville for this hidden retreat.

Great little park that is quiet, somewhat remote from the main part of town with a nice little dog park, a lake you can fish at, and very nice, clean pavilions. The restrooms are also well kept and clean. The police patrol the area so you can feel safe running and walking your dog. Great place to take the family and dominos delivers to the flag pole.

We visited the dog park here. The path to the park is well maintained and overall a beautiful place! Great areas for plenty of outdoor activities. The fence to the dog park needs repairs, looks like some digging happened in several areas. This dog park would be great for a small or a medium breed dog. It is too small for my husky.

Review №25

Beautiful little park to take the kiddo and dog. Clean and well taken care of. Big enough to where you can find your own little area to play fetch with the dog off the leash. Also have watering holes for your dog to drink some water. Please pick up after your pups

Review №27

The park is very nice. Kind of limited on parking. And the reason we went was for the dog park, it was much smaller than expected with most of it in pine trees that we had to duck under. Probably not going to return to it.

Beautiful, clean, and all around nice park for any activity. They have basketball courts, volleyball courts, a dog park, a playground, a lake, and nice great sidewalks wide enough to walk with more than one person next to you. Its on the edge of town, with trees everywhere. If youre looking to escape the city life of Edwardsville for a while, Joe Glik is great!

A pretty sweet park. Sand volleyball courts, dog park, childrens jungle gym, BBQ area and pavilion... 4 stars instead of 5 because the basketball hoops are all setup only for half court.

Nice dog park, shaded, the people were very nice. I live out of the area and it is a nice spot to stop and let my dog play. Doggie bags are available and there was a water hydrant to get water from.

Great park...but we were having a picnic and the guys with the lawn mowers showed up. The park was pretty virtually empty except where we were sitting in the Pavilion with the covers. We had two guys literally practically cut grass on top of us. Could have gone and cut grass anywhere else but had to be right where we were!! Very disappointing that these city workers didnt have common sense to cut Elsewhere for a little while while we were trying to eat our lunch. We actually felt that they deliberately did it because they had huge tractors and could have gone anywhere else to cut for a little while!! The park is huge so no excuse for that!

Good place to take dogs for a little free time. Sunday’s Les Mafia runs the dog park. Too many people letting their dogs cruise without a leash outside the gated park.
