I love that this park hast 3 different play areas, each with its own unique set up. It has a trail for a short walk that leads to a small creek my kids like to cool their feet off with. The dog park is adorable with 3 large partially shady areas, small dog, large dog, and a mixed area. The only reason this doesnt have 5 stars is because I feel it needs more of a toddler and/or special needs activity areas.
Our son playing flag football League there, its a big beautiful park, very kids friendly.
The dog park is really nice. They have separate areas for different sized dogs and each area is large. Plenty of room for multiple pups to run and play. I also liked that the water fountains for the dogs was actually working. Several other dog parks weve been to, they havent worked, so that was nice.
Great trails to get out and walk. Dog park has separate small and large dog parks.
I loved the swings and I loved the fact that everyone was outside playing baseball, catching a frisbee, and just plainly having fun
Dont know much about the rest of the park but great dog park. Multiple sections.
Handicap access and equipment, jungle gyms for smaller and older children and many fields for sports. Great park, well kept!
There are 3 main play areas available to choose from that are each age appropriate. Tons of grassy fields and goal posts available if you want to play soccer, several baseball diamonds and they even have a dog park. The only thing I wish was a little nicer are their restrooms, but I still gave 5 stars considering there are many parks & playgrounds that dont keep the restrooms unlocked unless a pavilion is reserved!
Great place to talk a walk along the creek
Its a nice park for soccer. The turf fields are in great shape
Pretty sweet place. Expansive dog parks. Nice walking path. Good open space and parking spot for venturing further out.
My phone died so I couldnt take any pictures we had a birthday celebration there and it was great
My dogs LOVE this park. So much running space and my dogs wear themselves out (total bonus for me lol). I live in the Leesburg VA area and I make special trips to this park just because we love it so much!
Nice big park on the edge of Fredrick.
Tons of room for dogs to play. Not a lot of chairs for us tired dog
Great place to reach your Fitbit steps. There is a dog park, play area for kids, baseball and soccer fields.
Open and spacious park complete with three different playground areas, multiple baseball diamonds, 4 dog parks, pavilions that can be reserved for outdoor events, and best of all, a mile long partially paved trail that runs along Ballenger Creek. On a hot summer day take the time to go over the small bridge and walk along side the creek. Enjoy the bubbling brooks or venture right into the clear, cold water of the creek! Fun for the whole family.
Grandkids love it!
Alot of open space and the park is well maintained. Plenty of things to do.
Solid park. Childrens playgrounds, ball sports fields, picnic shelters, community garden, and dog park.
Nice park clean and well maintained. Several ball fields and play areas. There is a fenced dog area that is very popular as well as 60 community garden plots that are fenced in with water and free compost for $67/season for a 15x15 plot. The plots seem to vary from 12-15 feet and a rough tilled before the start of the season(Mar 15-october)
The best park ever
One of many nice features is a beautiful wooded path along the creek and up over the hill. Perfect for walking or mountain bike. It loops around in a number of different ways.
Keller Williams Realty Centre hosted a great appreciation BBQ for Their agents and family. The facilities and playgrounds are well maintained. The ball diamond next to the pavilion looked ready for a professional team. A jewel in Frederick’s crown.
I was truly surprised I had never been here before. We had our FAME annual picnic here. What a well kept beautiful area. It was perfect.
Love taking the Boys here, one of their favorite places. Would love to see astro turf in the fields or something to combat how muddy it gets in the large Dog sections.
Four big separate dog parks is amazing - two for small and medium sized dogs and two for all sizes. When we were there, almost everyone congregated in the same park with about 20+ dogs.
I think it is great that Frederick County provides this area. We have moved from MD but were visiting. Murphy even saw an old friend. I see the enlarged the country are. Wished I had this here.
Great athletic fields, our daughter plays here every saturday with her field hockey team. Our church actually rents out space here once a year for a fellowship barbeque as well. The dog park is also very nice from what i hear
Great park and awesome dog park. Worth the drive
Ziva loves it here
Great park with multiple fields for baseball, soccer or lacrosse. A fenced field for leagues. A large dog park and community garden. A path that circles next to the creek. It would be great if basketball courts were included.
Ive grown up with this park and it has come a long way, from adding a dog park and a community garden, to additional soft ball fields, a turf stadium and more playgrounds. Plenty of space for picnics and a lovely trail in the back.
My grandson really enjoys this park. They have smaller play equipment for younger children. Weve also also found that the other park goers were friendly and well behaved.
Lots of places to play. Great park.
The best park in Frederick. In my opinion.
Great park for picknicks ( you can reserve shelter and even drink alcohol with a permit) lots of playgrounds, fields for different sports. dog park.
Beautiful park
Great park. Has nice walking paths that are lit at night. Free on street parking and only a few blocks away from the main streets.
Very nice park, has lots of baseball fields, a few soccer fields, a running trail towards the back that goes through a lovely patch of woods, and a dog park. Its a very well maintained park, with clean areas and lots of parking. Friendly people here and lots of activities going on with local groups as well. There are several shelters that can be reserved as well as several play grounds for children. A beautiful park right off Ballenger. I recommend a visit or a walk around the trail for sure. 5 stars and two thumbs up.
Great large dog park and walking trails. Plenty of playground equipment and parking. AND if your into it plenty of pokestops.
Beautiful park. Impressive astroturf field!
Does anyone know why the hiking trail is closed for maintenance? 19 Feb 20
Lots of parking; nice pavilions, sports fields.
Very clean, plenty trash cans, family-friendly environment, nice hiking areas in the woods, a dog Park, and electricity 4 sound system. We really like it.
Nice park, great place to bring your dog. Large or small. There are two dog park areas, both very large, one for small dogs one for large. Only negative is that the dog areas can beck be flooded.
Pavilion was nice. There was a great play area for the children.
Short, but very nice walking trail, about a mile long. Very nice dog area with 4 different pens to accommodate various size dogs.
It has a nice little dog park in the back here. Several playgrounds all geared for the 7 and under crowd in my opinion. I didnt notice any handicapped swings but I also wasnt looming specifically. Park itself is well maintained and clean. The artificial soccer field is A+ condition and really cool when our team played on it. Not sure of the availability though. There is also a baseball diamond.
Great dog park...wide open spaces...areas for big medium and small dogs. Very clean
Great place for a picnic or group outdoor get together. Great for taking kids to play.
Clean, nice doggy fountains. Great ammount of shade!
Very nice facility, clean and organized. The grounds are well kept.
We had a lacrosse game there. The grounds are nice. There is ample parking. There are bathroom facilities.
They have a number of good jungle gyms, nice paths, fields and a dog park. Good for all ages.
Awesome park, great facilities. Very well kept.
Excellent park. Love going there to play with my kids, explore all its places, or just enjoy some quiet.
Love taking my kids & wife Herr
Clean Green spacious and large fields to use imagination to construct big field games
Park is starting a new season, lots of fun people gather around, specially Dog park! Fun times, trail is lots of fun!!
So much space and nicely kept up!
Every Fredericktonian has, at one time or another, enjoyed the lush greenery and well-kept fields of the towns best place for sports, family gatherings, or just a memorable day in the park.
Great dog park! Always nice people & pooches there.
Park is great, plenty to do. But as an adult softball player in the league, the fields are not in great shape and batters boxes are borderline dangerous
Nice county park with several areas for recreational sports. A few playground areas and a dog park.
Its de beeeeest. I love it.
Nice place
Summer time is good for walk
Was on a Hunt with other Ham Operators, very nice park with Trails following Ballenger Creek!
The park is spacious and has enough room for many family activities. I really enjoy coming here for a walk
A gr8 place 2 have a bible study while melon plays
Probably the best dog park in Maryland. Four separate running areas and an adjacent trail.
Nice big park! Lots of play equipment for kids!
Always clean and nice playgrounds
Its a nice open area and the crowd seems pretty attentive to their dogs! I havent had any real issues with misbehaving animals.
Nice place to enjoy with the family.
Attended to rec building for a baby shower. Nice clean facility with a kitchen. Tons of great outdoor spaces for kids and parking.
Dog park!
Busy on weekends
Very peaceful, very large park right outside Frederick. Great for picnics and there are multiple play areas for kids of all ages.
Very nice and clean great size doggie park!
Never have taken my dog to a dog park until I found this place! 4 arenas available. 2 of them are used for smaller dogs while the other two very large. Clean and people are very good about picking up after their dogs. The park has fountains for your dog to drink from as well.
The softball fields need to be better maintained.
This is one of my happy, relaxation places.
Awesome a great time, here, whether walking the trail, playing with dogs, watching soccer/football games, or just taking in some nature and taking photos.
The dog parks are wonderful. A little muddy but Princess and I had a blast! She ran so much and so fast! Well be back again very soon!
Super nice. Went to watch a flag football game on the weekend. The facility is beautiful and the fields are turf.
Wonderful clean, open park with multiple playgrounds and places to run and play.
Love this park!!! They have like 10 fields or more to reserve for any event. Nice big safe up dated play grounds. 2 separated and fenced in dog fields to run. A paved path to the natural woods path threw the woods with stopping points with interesting facts about the park. A beautiful creek runs along side the path and has a beautiful spot to stop and hang out and take in the creek on the big embankment. Lovely park! Also has a terf stadium available for reserve with a deposit. Good for soccer lacrosse and football.
