Really cool to bring my daughter! She loves looking up at the planes amazed! Really cool to bring some takeout and watch planes with the family, sort of like a picnic. Unsure about if dogs are allowed (so I bring mine anyways and havent been asked to leave yet).

A quiet, peaceful place to watch the planes land and take off if you need some space to work out some thoughts. Also seems to be a nice area to have lunch and chill with your kids. I love coming here

Nice place is you like planes and the noise of planes perk up the adrenalines. Only if one worked in aviation could understand. My husband proposed to me at this location

The park is nice with a beautiful view of the airplane landing strip, I just wish there were more activities for the kids.

Overall experience was good. We were able to relax and get away from the sun for a while under shade. However, the park was further away from the airplanes/runway than I would have liked. The minimal plane activity made the trip a little boring, as I would have liked to watch more planes fly by.

So close to the runway. Great for people who want to simply planewatch. If youre a photographer, it will become Frontlit. Obviously the sun will be in different places in different seasons and months. If the runway becomes too poorly lit, Id recommend the parking garage.

Review №15

Had a great time making memories with our 4 small children, but a bathroom is very much needed! Even one close by would be better than nothing.

Though the tower does sway a little, the view is worth the climb to the top.

Great, nice little park. Would be a perfect spot for the city to put a drinking fountain and a porta potty. The general area is filled with walkers, runners and bikers, that would appreciate such amenities.

We enjoyed this park. Great place to let kids see airplanes take off and land. Lots of benches to sit on and a tower to walk up to view the runway better.

Review №21

I love this park. It is a great place to go and relax. Dogs should not be allowed in this park; the park has a large sand area. I would have given it five stars but there was a dog running around, not on a leash, the last time I went

Good for plane-watching, especially if you have older kids who are interested in that. Not great for very young kids as its geared more towards sitting and watching.
