Need to update playground equipment for kids and the basketball goals. They have put in more road ways that took away from the park. When I was little that was the it park but now hardly anyone goes out there. I used to love the hiking trail on school Field Trips. That was one of the main attractions.

Its a very good quite place to go & chill! There bathroom facilities are closed a lot & you would think they would never close except at night! They have a few pieces of playground equipment for the kids! It really would be a great place for kids if the city would spend some money on playground equipment! Many more families would come there if someone would spend a little money on the grounds!

We used the archery range which had been reconfigured since we were there a couple of years ago. It has the basics; measured distance targets, bow rack, and a table.I wish there was a better setup to keep from losing arrows/bolts in the grass when you miss the target.

Really nice park. It is a little far from the rest of Owensboro, so it feels secluded and quiet. The playground is awesome, but may be too big and advanced for smaller kids. There is plenty of space to run and play.

My foursome really enjoyed this course. It was a beautiful fall day and the course was in very good shape. The greens were impressive with lots of character. Beer was available at a good price ($10 for 6). We will go again.
