We love this park. Its always clean, the equipment is well maintained, and its designed to be all inclusive so my child can meet and play with kids of all ages and abilities. There are plenty of benches and picnic tables, really nice shaded areas at different times of day, and the Greenway Trail runs along it so theres a place to ride bikes or walk. We always choose this park first, but its very popular so we try to come at odd times so its less crowded.

Great place to pull over and take a walk, hike, let the pets and children play. Some parts of the asphalt trail were flooded out but easy enough to walk around them. Plenty of wildlife since this is a wetlands preserve. Nice size playground and also dirt trails to hike.

Great disc golf course. Nice bike trail and starting point for hooking to other Franklin trails. Ridiculous that beautiful trees were cut around pond. Why?

Beautiful park on the outskirts of Franklin. Walking trail is perfect for children, dogs, ..anyone! Play area looks great for children too. Not sure how far the trail went but would like to check it out the next time Im in Franklin! Wish Columbus had something this nice.

The new addition includes great new ways for our children to expand their motor skills. There are so many new, and creative parts to the playground that i wish we could have had as kids. I granted four stars, because the back playground, down the trail seems to get flooded alot. It also has degraded, and doesnt seem as interesting as the new part up front.A side note for us adults:There is a new work out section for us active adults. Complete with easy instructions on how to use the equipment.

I loved how they have renewed Blue Heron Park. The new play ground is great for children. My children have a blast there. It is easy to see from U.S. 31 and the walking trails are excellent. There is even a small outdoor workout area next to former park that still stands for children to enjoy next to the basketball court.

Great little park. Kids love it for the equipment and the trails. Great for kids with disabilities as well.Only “issue” would be no shade, but it’s a park so some do and some don’t.Great little park. Bring bikes, scooters or blades for the long trails!

Great Park. Includes long and wide paved Trail, Frisbee golf gourse, several picnic tables and a great playground for kids. The playground has swings several different kinds of slides, noisemakers, and all sorts of newfangled stuff. Most of its plastic so no hot metal to burn skin. And the playground surface is padded.

Great play ground for the kids. I have twin boys who are 11 months old and they loved the double baby swing! There was plenty of equipment for my two year old to run and play on, he loved the slide. We only walked to next playground down the trail, but look forward to going back and exploring more.

If you are an outdoorsy person & like to ride bicycles w/ little car traffic, this is the place to go. The park is nicely kept and the nature trails (3.7 miles one way) leads into a Cemetery that allows bicycles to traverse up & down the cemetery grid roads; excellent way to exercise via bike without worrying about busy car traffic interfering with your cardio workout...you peddle at your leisure!

Went for the trail. Pretty nice with a canopy made of overgrowth. The trail could use better signage. Part of it goes around a cemetery.

This park is one of the better parks in frankland especially for kids nice playground equipment and walking trail. It also has a frisbee golf course on it but I dont think thats much of a thing anymore. I dont know I might be wrong but never seen anyone playing that when Im there.

Perfect location for any family activities. A couple of playgrounds and shelters with a nice walking path. On top of a disc golf course And nice access to the creek for fishing!

This is a fantastic park for a small town. It is a very long park, and includes many features. It doubles as a childrens playground, and a Nature preserve. They have captured both ideas quite well. The park also features a terrific 18 hole Disc Golf course, that has many nice holes to offer all skill levels, and play is free. This park has a walking/jogging path that covers most of the park, and is adequate to tire even the most experienced runners with its length. Bicycling, rollerblading, etc. Is also welcome. There are multiple wooded areas, multiple ponds, which includes one in the rear Nature Preserve area. There is a workout station in the rear for business and organizations. The park does have a bathroom available as well. The only negative I can think of is the lack of parking I think. But I believe I would be willing to walk very far to have usage of this excellent public park

Love the new park....but I will not take my nephews or nieces here for the playground has absolutely no shade what so ever so the metal gets super hot and so does the rubber turf that the kids play on and it just radiates heat.....love the playground idea but you guys should have thought of shade as well
