Always beautiful and well-maintained, even during a whole pandemic. Plenty of space for people to keep their distance and still be outdoors, and lots of playground options for the kiddos.Four stars because there are limited accessible paths. Your choices are either the sidewalk on the outside of the park, the sidewalk next to a small part of the parking lot, or straight to and from the playground.

The park was freshly mowed, no trash, not crowded and plenty of parking throughout the park.

Outstanding park. The walking path is great for exercising, the equipment in the park is on point while being able to play softball or baseball easily or join a team is a great advantage.

Held a service project here for Veterans and truly enjoyed the space. The staff was very kind to me and allowed me to use an office to nurse for privacy. This truly a great family park with services for veterans and the broader community.

Nice grass and atmosphere. This is a great place to walk/jog/run. They also have a small workout area (not exactly Golds Gym, but you can get a decent workout). The playground is also great. Theres also a shallow indoor pool. If youre a family with little ones and on a budget, you can spend a day swimming and then picnicking in the park, while you stay in shape.

Nice quiet park. Great to bring out the family, especially a family with young kids. Will be a good place to venture to as soon as this Shelter at Home thing is over.

A big, clean, grassy park with tons of activities to do within the park itself. It has a track running around the entire area of the park, a pagoda/Gazebo thats huge for people to have parties and be shaded at the same time! There is 2 baseball fields side by side, a small skate area for skateboarding, rollerblading, and bmxing. There is an indoor rec area with free wifi inside, bathrooms, water fountains to drink, there is a pool that is for anyone to use but there is a fee I believe. also there is jungle gym areas for kids to play on, and benches and tables to sit on and watch the kids play! Very nice park for everyone to do stuff at!

I wish the skatepark had more. it has 3 ramps and 2 rails with a large crack in the middle. It makes you ollie over it or youd fall. I wish they had more teens there to skate with.

Beautiful park, great for families. You can have a picnic, go jogging, walking or walk the dogs for a little exercise. Please clean up after them, they provide bags for pick up. They have a swimming pool and activities scheduled now and then. Theres also a daycare. Its a very nice park.

One of the better parks in northeast El Paso. It has a track where you can jog or walk your pet. It has a small skateboard park, a swimming pool, and baseball fields. Also has a playground.

Excellent, fun, and beautiful park; great for a fun family day. Excellent choice of park equipment for the kids. My children love the climbing obstacles at this park. There are large fields with a track to occupy the time of anyone eager to exercise. Theres an indoor pool located at the heart of this park that will quell the summer heat.

I went to the indoor pool. It was great, has showers with curtains, and separate from the toilets. Prices were, I cant remember correctly, but the prices were $3 per person. But I thought it was worth it. Lifeguards were on duty at the time. 3 to be exact.

The park stays mostly clean, El Paso does try.Exercise equipment is an awesome addition.

The best part about this park aside from it spacious scenic atmosphere and awesome statue is that its close by and everyone is friendly enough. The most important thing for a park to have is friendly neighbors and free from loose dogs. The recreation center draws attention from local neighborhood kids and feels safe and the people who work there are very laid back. I consider this park an extension of my home and good for the soul. Being here is always inviting and so are you.

Cute and expansive park. Great walking to be had. The neighborhood will throw block parties on occasion. If you intend to walk your dog here, please keep him on a leash.

Review №54

I would give this park 5 stars, except for people who go to the park & 1) have their dogs off-leash, & 2) let their off-leash dogs run in the ball fields. The rules apply to them, too.Otherwise, the park has a great walking track. It goes around Veterans Park. 1 mile. Theres also a nice covered play area for little kids.

Very crowded and staff was not the friendliest. There was a class that showed up while we were swimming and we were kicked out of two lanes.Water was very cold for this time of year. We enjoy other indoor pools on base way better

This used to be my neighborhood park before the Northeast Regional Park was built. It obviously has been taken care of much better than a decade or more ago. It is awesome that a Rec Center, Swimming Pool and even a Daycare is on premises! The only thing that is bad is the neighborhood riff-raff tend to mess up a really nice park. What I dont understand is why they vandalize things at this beautiful park and cry when they cannot make use of it due to the fact that it broken.

The grass is really nice and green. There is a covered playground which is always nice! The playground has nice climbing structures, spinning features and a jungle gym. There is a workout station located right next to the playground which makes it easier for mommy and daddy to get a little workout in while the kids play. There is a recreation center and an indoor public pool located here as well. Overall, its a really nice park!

This park is very clean. There is a great path that runs the whole way around the outside and is lined with trash cans and dog poop bags.There is also a indoor pool, baseball fields and very clean kids play areas. I didnt see broken equipment and everything seemed very new. I would walk a dog here, play with the kids or meet a group for an outdoor event.

For having so many casual visitors it is pretty well maintained. Doggy bag distributors are always stocked, and trash bags are always tied up well in the trashes so trash doesnt fly around. Has a gazebo, skate park, rec center, swimming center, soccer field, two baseball fields, outdoor gym, and playground.
