Just checked out the new skate park with my 13 year old son. Great place! I will say if your child is a little younger, you may want to stay with them or talk to them about older kids being there. They werent disrespectful at all, but their skill level can be quite higher and that was a little difficult for my amateur son to maneuver around. But all skills levels were present and working very well together. Highly recommend!

This is a great park! Wonderful splash pad for families in the summer. Covered pavilions for gatherings and cookouts. Beautiful playground for children. An awesome skate park area for skate boards, bikes, skates, roller blades, and scooters. Close to beautiful, downtown Norman.

Wonderful place to walk and hang out. Several pokemon stops and gyms for the people interested in that. Covered shelters for parties, cook-outs, etc and a big, wide open field for soccer, football and more. Theres also a basketball course. There is a police station right across the street and pet-friendly stations setup for those who have pets. There is also a new public library very near.

Fun place to take my toddler. 2 playgrounds-one for the smaller kids and another one for the bigger kids or little ones that are transitioning. Huge park to walk around in. Lots of grass to play and run around in. Concrete to ride bikes or scooters or draw with chalk, etc. Police station right next to it so I feel safe. Also lots of picnic tables and seating. Water park for the summer too.

Great, large enough to walk around or bike through and get a workout in. Water park for little ones. Skate park going up. Largest glass walled library next door Ive ever seen next door; rivals the downtown library and is lit up on fire at night.

We love this park and the whole family is excited for the new skate park that is being built! It’s suppose to be the biggest in Oklahoma. So awesome. The splash pad is always clean and inviting as well as the other playgrounds. Great place to go for the day in Norman. Close to main and lots of places to eat

Wish they had more trees out by the parking lot so you could set up under a shade tree on the parking lot that would be nice but other than that it is a nice park

Very nice city park with plenty to do several children playgrounds, great walking trail, amphitheater, and even a splash pad. They also have a skatepark and basketball courts. Plenty of open area for other activities as well.

Andrews Park has 2 play areas. 1 is for smaller children, and is completely fenced in. Both play areas have updated jungle gyms with multiple slides and tunnels. Many updated benches have been placed all over the park. There are a couple of new picnic tables inside the toddler play area. They have planted new trees around them that will be really nice shade once they grow. There is also a very nice splash pad for kids, but it is currently closed due to Covid19. Norman Parks & Rec. Are reporting that it will remain closed for the remainder of 2020. There are a few pavilions for parties with bbq grills. There is also an indoor Pavillion that has electrical hookups and folding chairs available. There is a large outdoor amphitheater at Andrews that is used for local music events. Eventually, the seating will be covered. There is also a skate park on the far Northeast side of the property that will also be going under renovation in the future. Andrews Park is a fun place to go with family, and is situated very near the police dept. So it feels very safe.

Andrews Park is a great place to bring kids of all ages. It has a fenced in smaller playground area for your smaller children and a larger playground for those who need less supervision. Also has plenty of walking, biking, or skating paths through the park. It also has a splash pad and an amphitheatre and plenty of places to sit down and enjoy a picnic. Only downside is there are usually a handful of homeless people sleeping throughout the park.

Dirty pavilion. Homeless used as bathroom. Spending so much money on North side parks where high dollar homes are while this park smells like a toilet.

Review №32

The area itself is gorgeous, right across from the new library that was built in Norman. The bathrooms are disgusting, so if you have young kids, its inconvenient having to go to the library just for a bathroom break.

Andrews Park has been a staple for myself, my son, my dog for many many years. It is well kept. The amphitheater is a great venue for small concerts as well as social Gatherings and political event.

Nice place to take a break, let the kids roam around, good visibility (for safety), close to the new library. I suggest one hour in the library, then an hour in the park. Have fun!

Fantastic park across the street from the Norman Public Library. Andrews has been around for years and hosts many festivals and events throughout the year. There is an amphitheater, playground, picnic and party shelters, a jogging course, basketball court and decent parking for a park of this size. The splash pad is very popular and fun for kids. There are restrooms on premises, but I am pretty sure they are only open in the warmer months.

Review №43

The overall park is great. With an amphitheater, splash pad, and multiple playgrounds theres fun to be had. Reason for the poor reading is a huge design flaw in the fenced off playground. Word to the wise, if you have been playing at the splash pad dont go into the gated playground barefoot. The artificial turf gets extremely hot in the sun. Hot enough to blister your feet.

This is a great park with two playgrounds, a splash pad and a nice walking path. One of the playgrounds is geared toward toddlers and has a fence. There is also a very nice amphitheater where there is sometimes live music and events. The splash pad is big and my 6 year old loves it.

This is a great park. We come here from time to time. It has a water feature area for kids and families to play. It has two play areas and one of them is fenced for smaller children. It has several pavilions for family get togethers or birthday parties. It has a pretty good sized amphitheater for out door events. It is located directly behind the police department so its always being watched. The only downside to the park is that its used by the homeless and transits as a place to stay. I would have given it a smaller rating but due to the consistent police presence and keeping the park safe is why I gave it a full 5 stars. I never once felt unsafe there. All in all a really great park.

I like to walk my dog at Andrews. As there are not many if any people there during early mornings and I live close. The grounds are kept nice and in the summer there is a water park. Its nice to be able to get cooled off in the fountains.@;)

I really really enjoy this park. They have the splash pad which I absolutely LOVED as a child. They also have 2 different play areas, one for younger kids, and another for the older kids which is very nice. The library is just right across the street, within walking distance. Theres also a paved path that goes all the way around the area which is good for a nice walk or a bike ride. Very good area in Norman all around. A shame they took out the skate park thou.

We love St. Andrews, the pier provides great fishing and is spacious, the jetties have great snorkeling opportunities and help create the kiddie pool which is my favorite part of the park! Calm, clear water tucked behind the jetties, the water stays nice and shallow allowing everyone, even the younger kids, the chance to enjoy the Gulf. We also enjoy standing on the alligator lake watching the gators drift through their swamp.

Review №70

Small splash park.. which is fenced in. I think that would be very convenient so the kiddos dont run off. There are also 2 other regular park areas within the park. Also a huge outdoor theater like area which Im sure holds shows throughout the summer. Very nice and quiet place for a family night out. 3 stars because the parks themselves both water and regular are basic.

Nice place to eat with the family and room for the kids to play on the playground, splash pad, skate park or run out in the open. Right across from the railroad tracks so the kids love seeing the trains come by and as well next to the Norman police department so your kiddos are as safe as anywhere else in town. Pack a lunch, or grab some fast food, eat it there and run it off.
