Very nice park. Nicely shaded with several playgrounds and a paved trail. Theres picnic tables if you want to grab something curbside and sit outside to eat.

Review №2

Mixed feelings about no parking around the playground so be prepared to walk. Has a little bit for everyone. Would be wonderful to walk or run the path. Diverse is a good word for it.

Very nice. Lots of nice park benches, pavilions. On a weekday, not too many people, so walking the dogs wasnt any problem. We didnt have much activity to avoid. Very clean. I liked how many of the benches were under or near a tree. Gave me a place to sit while my dogs took a few breaks themselves.

Good place for my kids to get some exercise and burn some energy, there are a lot of trees so we try to stay in the shade. Sometimes it can be a Little crowded but not really to bad. The playgrounds are still not open but theres a lot of different directions to walk in and a few different turns of sidewalks you can Veer off to if One Direction looks too crowded

This park is good if you are out to get lots of exercise but all the play areas are spaced really far apart, definitely not for the light hearted or grandparents taking the babies to the play.

Great park! Lots of things to do, including basketball, volleyball and tennis. There is a playground and swing set for kids as well as extensive running trails for joggers. Park is always clean and is usually not too crowded. Definitely one of the better parks in the Knoxville area.

Great walking trails and serviceable tennis courts. The baseball fields have been severely neglected. If you play on them, be prepared for rocks and bad hops.

Review №31

A very well maintained park settled into a convenient and easily accessible location. Great for walks, play, sitting, strolling, and jogging. Kids will find the play areas exciting as much as the green grass invites tumbling. Shade trees abundant and sun shine available upon arrival God providing. Pick your spot youll be happy you stopped.

Review №32

This park has a lot to offer. A greenway runs through the park. Theres 2 play structures with one being designed for smaller children. Theres 2 pavilions for picnics and birthday parties. Tennis, basketball and pickleball courts are available. Theres a baseball diamond, too. Lots of green space which is perfect for Ultimate Frisbee or a soccer game. Clean restrooms located near the tennis courts.

This park is a good place to take a walk with kids or family. There are several open spaces, playground areas and plenty of seating areas off to the side of the main walking pathways. There are also a few locations set up to accommodate a picnic with outdoor grills and picnic tables.

I took my girls here for their first time playing here. My grandparents owned a home on Chesterfield Dr for 40 + years before moving to Farragut 7 or 8 years ago so West Hills is where I grew up. Countless memories, experiences, and lessons learned happened here and bringing my children here really brought everything full circle. The park has been well maintained and the equipment is safe and in good condition. The neighborhood is just as pleasant as I remember it to be and hopefully always will be. I look forward to bringing them back and who knows maybe our next home will be a West Hills home!

Its okay. The paved walking/ biking trail is nice. The volleyball area needs a new net is a little haggard. The kids play area is real basic its okay as long as there arent too many kids wanting to do the same thing.

Beautiful expansive park with wide paved sidewalk. Tennis courts, outdoor basketball court, playground. Lots of benches, shade trees, and covered pavilion. You will have to follow the paved walkway beyond the baseball field and tennis courts before finding play ground and basketball court. We parked in dirt lot across from school.

Review №64

This is by far the best city park I know. There are multiple locations for kids, groups and athletes. A river runs right through the middle and crosses the mile long walking path twice. It is a perfect getaway from the big city.There are two public tennis courts, ball fields, playscapes & parking lots. The YMCA is close, but very busy in the evening for after school events. You may not get a tennis or basketball court, but if theres an even number, start a round of doubles!

This park is very convenient to the mall area. I like to walk the paved trail twice to hit my daily 2 mile goal. There are 2 playground areas and a stand alone swing set. Playground for younger children needs to be replaced, though.

Review №85

Wonderful park for children and jogging track for adults. Just wish the bathrooms were down near the pavilions, its a very long walk up the hill to the restrooms with a child that has fallen and needs cleaned up or they have waited to long to tell you they have to use the restrooms. It is the only down side to this park.
