This is a great park for toddlers to n play. There is a small area for little guys and fun spinners for older kids. The ground is springy and reminds me of Summit Park.

Nice park. Numerous walking trails, grills, basketball court (1) and tons of benches! There’s also maybe 3 or 4 playgrounds. It’s pretty spread out. Got in a good couple miles walking around the pond. Also a cute free little library :)

A favorite for the kids (3 different playgrounds!) and for the adults with the great walking trails. There is always parking nearby, bathrooms, and shelters. The trails lead to a dog run and a catch and release pond. We like to look for turtles and the giant catfish in there!

Great place to bring the dog for a walk. The park has trails the wind through many different environments. Like fields, garden, woods and creek. The lake is really nice with catch and release features. The rest of the amenities included multiple play sets, basketball Etc. I plan to reserve the shelter for a family reunion

The Bark Park has been reestablished with a new fence but its still not open for use. When I called Symmes Township regarding the closure, they said that the Board of Health had still not allowed its use because of Covid-19. I called the Board of Health and was told that they ARE allowed to open it. I called Symmes Township a week ago to ask them to confirm my information from the Board of Health, and it is still closed. Pretty park, but still useless. It is also their habit to lock the park for 5 months during the winter. Nice when its open.

One of the best parks in Loveland area! You can spend time here just for a walk, or play with kids on great maintained playgrounds. It has absolutely stunning views on the trail, which is pretty big and can be great for the run. Also there is a dog park behind the Deer Ridge Shelter. And forgot to tell - the tiny waterfall is also on the trail. Just perfect!

We went for the touch a truck event. Its a really nice park with pavilion and a lot of picnic benches for families. Their playground was cool, its like an obstacle course for kids, bright colors very different. The whole event was really fun. Well def go again next year and will def come back to the park.

Nice, shaded, rustic dog park. When we went it was peak time at other dog parks, but this one was empty. I took off 2 stars due to the lack of water and restrooms near the park and the long walk from parking lot. If I wanted to take my dog on a walk I would have done that! I wanted my high energy dig to burn off some energy before we did some leash training.

Best park to hike with pets in Loveland. No bikes, huge dog run, elevation changes. Great year round. Best sledding hill in 10 mile radius.

One of the best playgrounds Ive been to in Cincinnati yet... The new kids area is turf and had some things that i dont see elsewhere (like a climbing wall, jumping poles), it had a zipline, a bathroom, a generous picnic area. Only point that isnt amazing is the shade - but thats the norm for this city!

Review №25

A great park with multiple shelters, a basketball court, newer playground with a zip line, bark park (look for the signs as it is not visible from the parking area), bird watching area and mixed surface trails. You can loop the trails with the Home of the Brave park across the street if you dont mind crossing the busy road.

Great location for a small company picnic. The covered area is large and will fit 50+ people. There is a large playground set right next to the shelter for all the kids to play and lots of green space to play corn hole or soccer.

The splash park was very cold, even on a hot day like today. Cool structures for the little ones. Not a bad place to take the kids for an hour.

The park has three playgrounds for the young ones to play on which is most important. They also have a full size basketball court that is almost always free. Their is a pretty nice dog park that you have to walk on the trail to get too. Also has a lot of shaded trails to walk on.

We went here to eat KFC we picked up, let the kids burn energy at the playground and ride bikes. However, the trail at the park was a walking trail not a bike trail. What we learned at the visit was that they had a dog park in the park. We enjoyed our visit, it had a nice playground for the kids and it wasnt overcrowded, on a mild day in March. It was our first visit and I would definitely recommend park.

This little township park gives the bigger county park system a run for its money. Duck lake, Dog park, sledding hill, walking creek, playground structure, tiny amphitheater, basketball court, baseball and soccer fields AND a bird blind. Whew! They packed a lot into this place.2018 Feb 21

Good place for large groups. New playground equipment on artificial turf was installed near the Leming Shelter, which has picnic tables that can accommodate about 150 people. Large 4-station grilling area onsite. There is a smaller shelter, restrooms, ballfields, and a walking trail through the woods. Home of the Brave Park is across the street with more ballfields, another playground, and a large splashpad.
