Big, Beautiful Park!Kleiner Park certainly has something for everyone -- from Jogging/Walking Paths to Childrens Playgrounds to Disc Golf to Bocce Ball to Fishing to large Pavilions to open spaces and more! The location is great, right next to The Village at Meridian. I also like the slow-speed, one-way traffic route that circles through the park, thus allowing you to get close to your desired area without carrying all your stuff for a long distance. The small hills add a feeling of expansive space while the fountains in the ponds keep the water looking fresh. I rate this park as a local treasure.

A very nice park. It would be great if it had a few more tables around for picnicking. We were fortunate enough to get one soon after the one we parked near was taken before we even got out of the car. There a couple of nice covered spots with tables for groups that were in use as we drove by.

Great spacious park with lots of green grass and trees/cover for shade. The playground is huge and has a splash pad. Multiple clean bathrooms and a fun snack bar. Love this park and cant wait to come back!

This is a great big park with several areas for exercise, kids to play, quiet contemplation including some nice water features and artwork. There are many picnic tables, shelters, trees, and grassy areas. And there is a bandshell for performances.

Julius M. Kleiner Memorial Park is a 58 acre park adjacent to the Village at Meridian Mall and Meridian Community Garden.The park has an amphitheater, picnic shelters, picnic tables, clean restrooms, a playground, 2 ponds and a tree arboretum. There is a 1.25 times life size bronze statue of Julius M.

If you are in Meridian, you can visit the park and have picnic in weekends.

Short disc golf course. Very beginner friendly. 9 holes. Dirt tee pads. Mids and putters is more than enough.

This park is absolutely wonderful! It has a superb location right next to the Village in Meridian, the Boise Co-Op, and some eateries like Chick-Fil-A to grab some food either to or from.A great atmosphere and excellent place for everyone and their families. We saw and took pictures of many of the amenities but I dont believe that we got all of them in our visit at the time.

Fishing! Splash pad! Play Ground! Snack Shack! Places to explore! Disk Golf! Beautiful scenery! Fish and birds to look at! What more can Could you ask for in a park. ..... There is a lot of goose poop. And the geese will attack you if you get to close to their babies. But other than that if you respect the wildlife there should be no problem!

We held a baby shower on Saturday 06.27.20 in the early afternoon. We purchased a park permit for the A-1 covered area.Cost: We paid $80 for a 5 hour time slot, given the amenities so close to our area, I found this to be a good value.Amenities: We were next to the playground and splash pads. Garbage and recycling bins were located at every corner of the enclosure. Restrooms were feet away. Very convenient to a parking area so loading and unloading supplies was easy.Cleanliness:When we arrived the area was clean and in order. We were able to set up promptly and without problems. The restrooms were very clean.Before arriving we were concerned that a lot of people would be utilizing the area we had the permit for and we’d have to ask them to leave. However, this wasn’t an issue due to park staff posting a schedule of events.We gladly will be returning.

Perfect park. Splash area for the hot days, large playground with a play area for bigger kids, and a smaller one for the little ones. Lots of swings, including a special swing for a big and little kid to swing together. A concession stand with a variety of treats and salty snacks (and even sunscreen!) plus a little stage area that I assume they do live performances at (though none right now due to Covid concerns I assume). Lots of grass to run and play. Beautiful park!

They place was a good feel of going through the park even though it was raining something about this place felt like part of a noir story as I walked along the paths at night with the lights lit up. I am afraid that I dont have a picture to tell you what I mean. It was still a great place to go to.

In the summer we do workouts here with Fit4Mom. The park is always well maintained and looks so pretty. It is never too crowded which is nice and they put on a lot of events. Walking around even when we are not working out is so nice and relaxing. The park for the kids is nice and updated with lots for the kids to do and even though the splash pad is pretty simple it’s still fun. I like how it’s close to the village too so we can walk over and have coffee there if we wanted too.

JKM Memorial Park is a great place for families and kids. Plenty of space to spread out with covered eating areas and trees to offer some shade. Older kids and adults can frisbee golf while littler kids can play on the playground or in the water at the splash pad. Concessions are offered and are a great way to recharge and refresh if you forget to bring the snack bag or picnic basket. Fun for all!

Very beautiful park next to the Village Shopping Center. Many ponds people fish casually and ducks frequent. Nice large walking paths for dog walkers and joggers. Hills make the shelters feel more private for group gatherings. Play grounds are nice and well kept. Many areas to park and play. They have a frisbee game in the park as well.

All I can say is your kids will never have to be bored if your take them to Julius M. Kleiner Park. They can cool off playing in the water park, have a blast on the playground and all you have to do is bring a chair and a book, hours of relaxation. Bring a few bucks for a snow cone and your like the best parent.

Cute park that has a little of everything from basketball courts, to sand volleyball, to a splash pad, playground, amphitheater, and more. They even had a concession stand open this past weekend when my family was there. Also, there is a lovely pond stocked with wish and beautiful memorials to veterans. Great family oak next to the Village in Meridian.

Playground isnt that great. My kids got bored of it way fast. Splash wasnt working that day either. Combine this with no shade around the playground on a 100 + degree day. Disaster. Plus, it was incredibly packed. Id much prefer Settlers park.

Review №88

Park was great, but it was more fun to see people driving 40+ and revving their engines loud so that others can run out of the way. If you need an area to get the blood flowing faster, then this is one of them. And because I have never noticed any officials there, Im assuming that some have permissions to go higher than the signs states.Otherwise, its pretty decent

There arent any trip hazards for me here to walk and jog on the cement pathways so i love it for that due to MS issues. I can go early as first light. Its playground is closed for COVID19 but doesnt affect me getting some mileage there. In really thankful for this park and that i live nearby for easy use and dont have to worry about touching anything or anybody while im there, and if i needed a restroom i just go home!

Review №93

Very spacious and nature-filled. Great place to host/attend events. And even when there are events, theres still plenty of open park to explore on foot, with dogs, on a skateboard or rollerblades, with a fishing pole, etc. There are benches, grills, sand volleyball courts, restrooms, memorial-related things to see and read, and green grass everywhere. Not to mention some great hills for rolling down. Not that Ive done this myself... Not sure what more a park could have, honestly. The only complaint Ive heard is that its too far away from BSU, which frankly isnt all that great of a complaint.

This is a large, well-maintained park with lots to do for families. There are childrens playground areas and a lake in the middle of the park (too small for boating, and swimming isnt allowed). The park is quiet as it is bordered by homes, or a grassy hill separating it from busy streets. There are cement paths running throughout which are good for walking or kids on bikes and scooters. It gave our family a relaxed afternoon.

Very nice public park with lots of amenities. There are picnicking areas that different groups can use. These shelters can be a lot of fun. It was really great kid play areas that have rubberized and wood chip play surfaces and theyre very nicely. we had a company picnic there and everybody fit in fine. At the same time, at another shelter, is a cross the play area, someother business was having a picnic in area experience. They look like they were having a good time also.
