Is a very nice park with the shelter if it rains. A friend of mine and I have breakfast once a week usually at the North end of the park. We pick up our breakfast at McDonalds and sit on one of the benches at the North end of the park. The walk around the park Ive been told is about 3/4 of a mile. So occasionally I will walk around the park.

Dog park is clean and not very busy. Was refreshing to see a park worker cleaning up the entrance when we arrived. That said, I wish the park wasnt located immediately off such a busy road (Harlem). Would have 5 stars otherwise.

This park is quiet and in a nice area. Theres something for the entire family. Running room for toddlers, big green fields for football, soccer, tag, dogs, or even a picnic. My nephews love it!

Well-maintained park. Nice place to walk. Street parking is available on the east side of the park. The only negative is the location as Harlem Avenue is on the west side of the park where traffic is always very heavy during the day. The dog park is interesting to observe when it is populated with many dog owners and their dogs.

This is a really nice park. Wish they would add an acoustic barrier on the west side because of the traffic noise on Harlem

Beautiful playground with inclusive amenities. Be mindful that done events will reserve the picnic area or baseball fields. High schoolers try to be cool and rebellious once nightfall his but just remember that the park DOES close at sunset. Expect smokers and bums taking advantage of the public park bench so any dogs, infants, children, or elders with asthma to avoid being exposed to dangerous secondhand smoking.

Have a picnic, meditate under a tree, walk your pet, go for a jog around the park, play checkers on the built in tables and benches nearby the cushioned-floor kids play area, bring your own equipment and play a game or two of volleyball, soccer or pretty much any sport with a ball, have a seat on one of several benches spread throughout the park for a moment of reflection, read that one last chapter in that book youve been meaning to finish or write in your journal while enjoying the outdoor breeze. All of this and so much more can be enjoyed here. A park Ill visit again & again to rest my mind and enjoy the day.

The playground at Maple Park has been completely remodeled since last year and is now without all of the messy sand of the sandbox. The equipment is new and theres an area for smaller children as well as big ones. My nephews love this park. Theres easily accessible bathroom facilities, no vagrancy and tons of room to run and play.

Review №64

This park in particular, is run by people from another suburb. Makes it intimidating to enjoy parks that we pay extra exorbitant TAXES for, and to top it off to feel threatened. Why is this? Barry Park is the same way!

Review №85

Recent (2016) renovations made what Im sure will be great improvements to the fields, paths and sightlines. The playground was moved south, and closer to the restrooms is a plus. Other positives include the spongy rubber surface and covered area north of the playground. However, a major fail is in safety for little ones--fencing is too short and inadequate to keep little runners inside the playground while a minder has eyes on another child. Another major mistake was moving the playground into the sun--shaded playground space was already at a premium in OP, and the old Maple Park was great for that. These things could have been easily fixed during planning with community input. Also, PDOP replaced some unique and very interesting playground equipment at Maple with stuff thats much more ho-hum. An opportunity to improve the Maple playground experience was clearly lost here.
