Yeah, gorgeous park! As you’ll find in some of the reviews there definitely is a homeless population here but I’ve NEVER had an issue with any of them. Nothing to be afraid of, it’s not a reason to not come to this park. Awesome big trees and grass.
Beautiful new park. Great spot if you have a bunch of kids to keep track of all can be in eye contact at once
Love feeding the critters and walking laps around the Library, The trees are awesome too! Very peaceful
Love having a playground right next to the library. New play structure is awesome
Lots of memories here, because I used to bring my kids here when they were small. We lived 1 block away. I still spend time at this library. Ive done so since it opened. Wonderful place.
Very nice area of town! Beautiful trees!
The staff at the library are absolutely wonderful. Even being out of state they were able to answer all of my questions, get me a card and make sure I was good to go. The seclusion rooms are great to use and everyone there are friendly. The squirrels are also absolutely wonderful and so friendly. One of the better experiences, even coming from Wisconsin.
Very nice park the Wi-Fi works well.
Cute park with updated playground and lots of grassy areas. Good shade in the playground area.
Relaxing people are phenomenal and you can do what you need to if you need quite or hang and talk with friends and its still a relaxing safe feeling place
No problem parking and few people in the library.
This is one of the nicest parks in Ft. Collins. Its spacious and tree filled and there is a nice playground for the kiddies. Benches, picnic tables, and lots of shade make it a great place for an al fresco lunch. Yes, there is an increased homeless presence at Library Park, but theyre just people. Theres no need to be afraid of them. Theyre not going to harm you. Just enjoy the park.
Good shade and very pleasant place to visit
Very nice real old cabins. Park was Real clean
Considering there is no other park in the area PERIOD and library security keeps a watchful eye on things its good. Especially if you keep in mind the surrounding homeless population its decent.
The childrens playground is wonderful .
Nice shade only bad thing is that theres no good parking for big vehicles they get too hours
Love going to the library here and taking walks around the park when its nice out. The city/staff take really good care of the area and are currently upgrading one of the playgrounds.
Love old town library very clean a little homeless but other then that very peaceful clean and friendly. Staff are very respectful and helpful.
I love that Fort Collins has dedicated an entire block to the serenity of reading, chess (at outside tables and on a large lawn set), a history museum, and, the arts which flourish in the original Carnegie Library from the late 1800s, via that buildings modern use as the Carnegie Community Creative Center; its the site of art exhibits, performances, many community events, and, it houses a community TV set-up in the basement level, where folks can learn many a video skill and produce video. And, theres the playground for kids to enjoy before and after they go to check out their books. Finally I appreciate the expansive green space, the Piano About Town (usually being played) near the entrance, many bike racks (usually at least half full), and large trees. Library Park is an Old Town gem!
I love this place. My son loves to play there, and my husband and I can relax and make friends in this beautiful place.
This is the location. For the Fort Collins Main Library. I dont live in Fort Collins anymore. But I loved the library.
I went to a small festival here. Its okay, as far as parks go. There are shade trees and there was a nice breeze when I was there. I dont remember much else, as I was focused on the booths and people of the event.
If you like history this is a good place to go. And of course the city library is here
Clean, easy to access by the public transportation. It is so close with the city library.
This is the perfect family oriented library! I have taking my employers autistic son there and always see parents with young children attending organized activities. The building and the park are aesthetic and the library is friendly, welcoming and well organized.
It is a really good library and the park is nice. I love walking around and working on Pokemon Go. Just dont go there before noon. Its a homeless hotel on the grass.
I love the events the library hosts here and theres lots of space to run around and play
This park is a full city block with library, museum, a few outdoor activities such as an outdoor giant chess board, and recently I saw those small scooters parked upfront you can borrow.
So historically attached to this community. Love this rustic style
Retired City Forester Tim gave us a wonderful tour of the Old Town Library park. He provided us with the unique history and identifying characteristics of the diversity of trees, including some which were memorial trees.
For once a city library where you arent smothered by homeless antics. Peaceful and quiet for all to enjoy!
Great life-sized chess board. Plenty of open well-manicured grass for picnics and play. Good swing set. A good swing set is always a must-have item at any decent park. 15 minutes on a good swing set is better than an hour in a therapists office any day of the week.
Its the best place in town
The library is really cute and has a huge selection. I did notice there is an insane amount of homeless people that sleep/crash in the park around the building. I always expect to be asked for money or cigarettes or something. Its nice that they have somewhere to rest but its also sometimes quite annoying and makes the area look a little grungy.
The playground itself is lame, but the park around the library is nice and fun and great for picnics before or after going to the library.
Nice park but its frequently full of homeless people. Wouldnt take your kids there.
Very nice library, only thing I do not like about this place is the constant traffic of homeless people and police having to deal with the homeless causing disruptions.
Great park to walk around. Always lots of squirrels for my dog to stare at. Also has a playground and giant chess in front of the library.
Pretty interesting place
Love going to this library. The squirrels are fearless but I guess I would be too if I was a squirrel with cajones like that.
There were two squirrels and they ate right out of my hands.
Library is a location where you can have freedom look what your needs are and have a great day its a nice location to think about life how you really want to live how to love others how to love others you need to love yourself but you can have that love or youll never be note but love is Im a beautiful person and I love myself like I love the world faith hope love
Dedicated staff with the people skills that understand the needs of their community.
Cozy af and also smoke free which is appreciated. Lovely set up and library. Landscaping was A+
This is a beautiful spot to just sit and enjoy the scenery and read or meditate or picnic with your friends and family
The place. Is. Quiet. And. Scerene.
Chill vibe.
This is a great place to go! The outdoor full size chess game is wonderful! The library is very nice too with a very nice and friendly staff to accommodate your every need! I only wish I had more time to visit the museum and the old structures that are part of our local history. Parking can be a challenge and for me who has an issue with walking any distances at times, makes enjoying everything the park has to offer a difficult proposition. So, enjoy everything they have to offer and for me I will definitely be back when I have the time to enjoy this wonderful park!
Some nice, well maintained open space around the library. Small but quaint.
Really incredible and a great source of joy! In good weather (almost every day here, lol) sit and listen to the birds!Play an outdoor HUGE game of chess, and have a good laugh!
I went for the New West Fest and it was fun. The crowd, the energy, the food, sounds, and smells all came together to exemplify Fort Collins.
Old Town library is great huge section for the kiddos and parents enjoy it to. I love the my 4 year old son acts when we are there.
Great central location. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful.
Nice place to hang out read a book or spend the afternoon on a sunny day great for the family or alone love to spend time here.
New West fest featuring POCO, good job tonight, missing all members who sang lead vocals.
Went here for Pagan Pride Fest 2019. Not too bad of a place.
Friendly employees and resources beyond the paper books on site. Give it a try
Nice play ground for kids plus the book, movies etc.
Fort Collins does a great job maintaining their parks. There are always fun things to do as well as beautiful landscaping.
The green infrastructure in this park related to storm water is very cool.
Great library and resources. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people struggling in our society that frequent the area.
Good for 1-12yo! Picnic tables, bike racks, benches, theres a giant chess game and a piano to play also...in front of the library!
Loved walking around this gorgeous lake.
It’s a nice park to walk, it has tables to play chess or checkers, plus old town library.
The Library Park is a great place to take a break in the shade, access the Old Town Library, a playground for the Children etc.
This town is nice almost no people on street, still I love it
Great place too read and research
Such a wonderful place to inquire information. Everyone was very helpful!! Would be going back for sure! ;)
Forth Collins is one of the best place for EVERYONE and EVERYTHING!
The management told me to leave for no reason but I still enjoyed the park. They have some old buildings and cool things to look at.
Nice little park that surrounds the library. Good playground and a few tables.
I love the Library I could stay there for hours. The park is nice for the little children.
Play ground, lots of grass, museum and awesome library
This is a beautiful place to do walking, hiking, fishing or any type of activity especially on a beautiful day like today
Love this library. Internet access. Printing. Music and audio books.
They have some neat historic buildings on site. Too many transients hang out near the east entrance smoking all the time tho. Other than that its a nice place.
Fort Collins gas a great library system!
Best mechanics in
Really nice place for a walk or just to hang out.
One of the best libraries Ive been to. Nestled in a beautiful park.
Very peaceful and Serene its just a lot of vagabonds
Its got lot of books and the museum is also there its got lotts of history great place to twke the kids for a local history lesson lt collins the officer. Ft collins was mamed after i love history
Stunning setting to grab a book, and lose yourself in its pages in a lovely area of town! I love the park, the historic buildings, and its location. The Old Town Library branch is in this fabulous park, directly across from Old Town Fort Collins
Very pretty little park near old town Fort Collins. Lots of seating, very clean.
Beautiful place to go and chill out
Great library. staff was helpful
Pretty cool I like it
It has a library, community center with art, and is used for weekend festivals. The playground is being refrained right now, but in 5 weeks it will be great.
Some kids at the playground playing was nice. But the people hanging around in the grass asking for money was not okay to me. Im there to have my kids get books and have fun with the library. Not being asked for things that we definitely do not have.
It is nice the cops dont harrass u
Pretty there, just a few homeless hanging out.
