This is our local park! Its very cute and a nice little walk around. Its very simple but lots of green and a fun little playground that my daughter loves.
Honestly, this is a pretty chill park to go hang out in. most of the negative reviews seem to be pertaining to the playground area, but I dont play on playgrounds and I dont have kids so I couldnt possibly care less about that. The trails up behind the playground area are a great place to just go and eat some grapes or stare at the mountains as the sun sets, hence the appropriate name for this park.
This was my childhood park in the early 90s. Unfortunately, it happens to be the location why it falls victim to the vandalism. As a kid, the older kids and teens have always bullied me out of the park and made their presence known on the playground so I could rarely go on it. So basically I could only ride bikes on the path or wade in the stream.The kids and teens there were rarely ever nice, just bullies and gangs. They always tagged the playground and apparently this nonsense still goes on. Looks like this area will just never change. Even into young adulthood I felt like I could never go there alone because when I would the groups would just stare me down and I always felt threatened. I give the 5 stars for my memories of the fallen tree limb and creek and forest hideouts but I never truly felt safe there alone
I went to spend time with My son Ryker Colt!!! MOMMA LOVES YOU SO MUCH!!!
Great place just wish I could get up to watch the bike jumps cant get there in my little wheel chair
A weird little hidden gem in West Lakehood. Plenty of nature and variety, for a small park: some hills and winding trails, a river (saw muskrats), pavilion, big old growth trees, nice playground (kinda beat up and old, but good enough).
I usually enjoy my walks with my dog there; its quiet, a lot of trees,walkways are broad and well maintained. Keep in mind there are no bathrooms, but there are shelters, picnic tables and play ground.
Perfect for RC of all kinds
I love this park and I’ve grown up in this area and this park has always been a go to for me. Lately there has been coyote spottings. I tonight had to rescue my cat from 3 red foxes. I’ve even noticed them out in daytime more often.
Really cute little park away from busyness
Great little park
This is a great park to just hang out, or walk around the trail system. I spent a few hours here reading in the shade, then took a little walk around the area. The people I encountered were very friendly. Pets are allowed, but should be leashed, even though some people decided that rule was for other people, not for them. Also, if you decide to bring your pet, PLEASE bring along a few doggy bags for picking up after them. This is a beautiful place, and it needs to remain that way, and not covered in animal waste. A similar park near my home recently said no more animals, due to people not picking up after their pets, and not having them on a leash. I now have to drive quite a way to take our dog out for a walk in the park. PLEASE DONT LET THIS HAPPEN TO THIS PARK!
This park is close to our home so we like to walk here and play. The park keeps getting ruined and my sons cant play on all the equipment because its broken. There are holes in the slides and graffiti with curse words all over the place. I like having a park by our home that I can walk to and my kids can play at but I really dislike how little maintenance this park has had in the past year and how much damage is done to the park by (probably) teens and others.If the city of Lakewood can fix this park up and maybe maintain it in the future I would like this place a lot more.
A great local park. While theres not a ton of playground equipment, theres a large pavilion and plenty of space to run around. Theres also a good loop of flat concrete sidewalk, perfect for roller skating or riding bikes. Theres plenty of space for picnics underneath the trees next to the creek. Its the perfect park for smaller kids, though bigger kids can have fun here as well. ;)
Ive lived close to this park for the last 9 years and made some amazing memories here I love this park
The park of dreams, Its almost surreal how perfect it is
I love anytime I can get out doors and into nature. This place was beautiful and not too busy either.
Had the loveliest sunset seating anywhere to be found
Great little park with a full playground and a large pavilion with tables. Its always clean, no litter, etc. It is right across the creek from the paved trail that seems to be very popular to people walking on lunch breaks, walking dogs, skateboarding and riding bikes. Its a gorgeous space and represents our beautiful state well!
It is a place where you can be alone or with a group. You can play baseball, football, or even soccer. Most people walk there dogs in the park and always there are kids always running around and having fun.
Love this park. We have been taking our two dogs for a walk there for a year and a half now because we live nearby. It has a nice stream running through it. The grass is maintained and green. The trees are big and beautiful. The people are friendly. They have a little playground for the kids at the center of it. Watch for Coyotes in the summertime if you go in the evenings.
Beaitiful! I wish people pick up after their dogs...lots of doggie stuff!
Always my favorite place to go too. I never wanted to change.
One of the good places for walk in Lakewood! I like this place!
Nice quiet park with lots of nature to enjoy and open space. Close enough to the city yet distant enough to have that nature feeling you only get in or close to the mountains.
Pretty and out of the way. Clean
What a great little find-beautiful walking path and playground for kids.
Nice park for kids, play basketball, ride bicycle, walk. I come ride my bicycle often here.
Used to ride BMX here on the no longer dirt jump built by us locals. Miss em, or it would have 5 stars
Beautiful, clean park with space for dogs and people both to play.The only negative thing I saw was the lack of facilities. No restroom or water.
This is a pretty park. Sometimes people smoke pot on the playground later in the evening which sucks, but if you take your kids during the day you wont run into it. The walking path and River are pretty and nice for walking the dog, or going for a run.
Awesome park with alot of area to hang out
Great park but the stream is pretty stinky
Safe, beautifully kept park with a stream and bridges.
Excellent park for kids and plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities. Commons area is close to playground and is clean. Great place to take pictures of the sunset . Construction has completely ruined the stream/creek that runs through the park. Trash has built up expodentally at the east bridge.
Nice, quiet, relaxing place. Listen to the water flow, or play with the kids. Would have hot 5 stars if it had been bigger.
Great place for late night public sex
Chill spot my dog loves it
Small park good for a short walk.
This park is very brave and stunning
Cute little park with a nice sidewalk, childrens play area and gazebo to sit under, as well as decent view considering the urban location.... also the name is accurate, great view for the sunset also.
A lot of space for really anything you want to do! Its got a good look though the zig zag is kind of annoying! Great place to hangout though!
The park is ight but the bike track needs alot of maintenance
Good place to chill.
We went here because the reviews were pretty good. What a mistake! The trails were pretty but the park was a nightmare- holes in the rubber, slides smelled like urine. Not a good place for children.
Enjoy while u can before they build houses over it
I FELL FROM THE TOP OF THE PLAYGROUND SET IM VERY HAPPY AND THANKFUL FOR THE CUSHIONED RUBBER MAT FLOOR ON THE GROUND DEFINITELY HELPED MY FSLL FROM BEING AS SERIOUS AS IT COULD HAVE BEEN
I love this park. Its got a nice feel. The sidewalk is pretty messed up but has a nice overlook. Really like to watch sunsets at sunset Park lol. Just wish they would stop cutting down all the trees. Those trees were there a lot longer than anyone else, one had to be at least 60-80 years old that they cut down for no apparent reason. And there is so much trash in and around the creek its sad.
I enjoy this park. Little parking, but varies in terrain. They removed the big swing on the south west end though. That was the best part!
Lots of trash around playground. Slides have burn holes through them.
Its a nice little park without bathrooms. Your kid might have to go and thats the end of it. Make sure your kids go potty first or you fir that matter.
Nice relaxin spot
Pretty much grew up here. Bunch of memories here.
We took family pics here and they had a lovely tree that had grown sideways that we sat on.
B E A U T I F U L every time.
There is a walking trail and a dirt track for bicycles.
Mosey people
This is a fun little park more or less connected by bike path.
Great open space with plenty of stuff for the kids to play on
Great little park form the kids to run aroubd and let out some energy.
Nice clean park
Wonderful park. Sometimes theres homeless people camping here :(
Very beautiful park
Nice little park to relax and enjoy the day at
Its alright-ish. Stinks like pot in the afternoon from high school aged kids smoking up on the play ground equipment, and there are homeless people camped along the creek to the West, and all over the old BMX jumps to the East.
Great place to bring my daughter on a sunny day for a picnic
Nice little neighborhood park clean and spacious.
This is a great parks kids to play
Nice to walk in
Homeless campers moving back in
