Fine park with several different activity areas (tennis, baseball, fishing, walking and biking path). Only a short distance for the trails though so not a great spot for a long workout. The grassy areas can get pretty flooded. Lots of people here and many of them arent wearing masks.

I like it here. It has so many in-the-tuck spots and its really a nice place to get away without being too far from the city. Good for biking, running, strolling. Tennis court, baseball field, bathroom etc.

Great place to take your dog. Plenty of room to roam. Spots at benches do tend to get crowded with bbqs during nicer weather. Get there early. Skate park is dope, but not for beginners.

Great place to exercise. I like to get out early to start my day with a workout, and this place opens at 6.On the weekends there are street style vendors in the south side parking area selling satay, tom sum (papaya salad), and other Khmer style barbecue. I usually buy laab and homemade sausages and fresh squeezed sugar cane juice.

Like that have about 10-15 tennis courts..laid back. Allow people to bring their own grills. Nice place to hang out and get away from business of the city. Could use more play areas for little kids and updated play areas.

Good spot for Philadelphia. Trees, ponds and athletic courts including tennis courts. Main road and parking lots recently repaved after years and years which is awesome. Great, for walking, jogging, biking. Outer trail is about 1.75 miles around. Plus a large skate park under the highway including half pipe. Enjoy!

Would have 5 stars if people would wear their masks...

Some renovations could be made. Tennis courts, especially. The skate park is dilapidated and it needs to be fixed. Some lighting in any sports field should be done. Other than these things, the roads are great for biking, although the trails for off-road bikes tend to have people walking on them.

A little unkempt! It has a lot of potential.Other than that, had a lot of fun. There was an Asian market with Asian food veggies and items for sale. Then we ran into Taps in the park. This was very popular with many young families, dogs, food and beer. Social distancing, of course! Lots of fun!

Ive been coming here for over 15 years and have always enjoyed myself at this park. Very spacious, lots of places to walk and things to see - especially the skate park. I dont even skate but it is a Phila monument at this point. This is the quintessential Philadelphia park.

Excellent place. A nice green getaway at the South end of the city of Philadelphia. There are several lakes there that are connected underground to the Delaware River, so all kinds of fish occur in them, Ive even seen thread herring and even blue crabs come out of them- many miles from the ocean and even a nice distance from the Delaware. Theres also many kinds of plants and animals there, including deer. Picnic tables and a skateboard park too.

Came across a wedding party at the waterworks, a Cambodian street market further on. Great fishing holes, picnic parties, tennis courts, a car rally. Something for everyone

This is a nice park, most of the structures are run down, but its a great place for everything from crossfit to sharing a blunt with your friends

The course is closing at the end of October and frankly the maintenance has been set aside. So, if you are looking for an inexpensive round of golf and dont mind a rough course, then you should check it out. Greens fee is $17 for 18 holes, $25 with a cart. Be prepared to traverse a lot of holes, because there are many on the course.The photo shows what I referred to as the swamp buggy path. Have fun!

Great park but restrooms are always closed; the bike/jogging trail and the one way circular drive needs repaving(which is in progress) Great place for softball and soccer theyve have tennis courts and a skateboarding area. Dogs love it too!

Beautiful park!! I couldn’t believe how many families and friends were here having cook outs. It’s a great venue option if you’re trying to find a place to get together via outside event space. You can also fish here, play tennis, and so much more. And it’s a stone throw away from the city center!

A great park nestled in South Philly. Parking is always available, and offers a little bit for everyone. Its good for a bike, run, or walk around the park. Theres a skate park at the southern end with outstanding graffiti, and a beautiful pavilion to watch the pond and watch planes take off from the airport.

Beautiful lake for small fishing, it has lot of spot activity for all ages. Good for running fishing sport!

Busy, roads need work, needs better cleanup or a clean up day the family can participate in. Always large groups to interact with. Fields to play in. Great art at the skate park.

Been coming to this park for 40 plus years already it use to be nice and clean,grass and trees always trimmed,not anymore!Whats going on with the employees?no one is taking the x mile to keep up with the park

This park is a nice getaway, but there is a lot of litter and currently are a lot of unmasked people wandering around. I recommend going early, or on a week day, if you want to have some privacy and space. People will come into your space to fish if youre sitting along the water.

It’s a really nice park overall but there is no basketball court. Huge missed opportunity, just wish there was one hopefully something they can look at in the future.

Beautiful! Tons of different birds and critters if your an animal lover. Bring the kids, dog etc!As long as its not over crowded that is...

Coming here to play guitar was the best thing Ive done all quarantined.

Kind of a dump, unfortunately. It has potential though! The walking path is pretty poorly paved and there is quite a bit of trash around (but welcome to philly). Hoping they will fix it up soon!

Very nice tennis courts and there was even a beer garden this weekend. Lovely park.

Beautiful oasis that makes you feel like youre far from the city

Many Asians, Hispanic families and unique characters, and nice hassle free good times in a great outdoor environ. ENJOY!

Came for the Asian food market, you can find $1 beef satay (skewer), wings, sausages, they also have sugar cane drinks, fritters like banana, taro, sweet potatoes, egg rolls, crabstick rolls. They also sell salads. yummy and cheap. I dont know if they open during weekdays but weekends definitely open and parking is very easy. Expect heavy pedestrian traffic.

Beautiful clean surroundings and great open area for outdoor activities and picnic.

Parks clean, usually not too crowded, and quiet in most areas. In covid times, theres plenty of room to socially distance

Amazing park, beautiful atmosphere, great people (sk8ers) fun time and fun to be around the skaters. There is a lot to do here, on the other side of the park is a great Asian market where they have a lot of Asian food for sale. Thai, Laos, Cambodian and more. They have drinks and much more. There are plenty of ramps the kids can use as well as adults

Nice tennis courts. A little fast but one of the best places to play in the city

Nice place to go to just get outside. Went the other day to get out side and some sun. Threw the portable grill in the trunk and was able to find a great spot to just chill and grill. Also perfect place if you want to hang out with a friend or two and still maintain your social distance.

Great place to hang out on a beautiful day...Ive been doing so since I was a child

Very nice clean park. Beautiful place to take your family. Rite next to water for fishing. Pretty place to have picnic grill.

Newly paved road is awesome. Was there at dusk last night and all i cam say is bring the bug spray!! I was attacked my murder mosquitos in under 10 minutes!

Awesome and iconic skate park for advanced skaters only. They do have a side park with a limited amount of beginner ramps and grinds

Born n raised n s.philly love it..me n my son went for a walk..saw the phillies practicing n they thru my son the ball..GO PHILLIES

Great for walks and picnics and to chill out . They also have a beer garden open

It is so relaxing and you can walk on the trails with your animals and its beautiful

Its not far from the city. The park is very big. Its really nice

Nice place to chill with friends, parks are nice and so are the people. And i dont even skate but the skate park is a fun place to hang around at.

Such a beautiful place to skateboard and the people are diverse and friendly. A must go

Great park to get together with friends and family for socially distanced meet-ups.

Love this park. So much to see and so many places to relax. Very South Philly vibe, so expect interesting people and events!

I have been coming to this park since I was a child. It is a peaceful place where jogger go and people enjoy the view. It has picnic areas for families and a few baseball fields scattered throughout. It also has tennis courts and a childs play area. Many people bring their children to feed the various birds that congregate there. You can find ducks, geese, and swans to feed to name a few.There is also many beautiful flowers that grow throughout the park. Great for taking pictures.There is also the Swedish museum to visit if you like history. When I was a child it was abandoned, an empty shell of a building with 2 large canons on either side of it. Now it is repaired and open to the public.I dont give 5 stars because there is trash that is left behind from picnicers and it gets into the lake and other areas of the landscape that takes away from its beauty.

My first time there with a friend. The spot we picked had a great view of the water. We found a quaint place and had a great lunch.

Love walking down the lakes. Wish the City would clean it up though, and fix the walk pathways!

Born and raised in South Philly Nicest park to have ANY event

I didnt walk the park but the skate park is awesome. If I could skateboard I wouldve been in heaven.

Beautiful wooded running/biking path. A little narrow but scenery

Brings back memories of when I was younger nice landscape and buildings everyone practicing cov19 place to get out and enjoy

Absolutely Beautiful. So many hidden treasures. Great place to take photos and create great moments

Great place to buy chicken, pork and beef BBQ, ICE WATER, ICE SUGAR CANE Even groceries, fruits salad.

They re paved the street and its sooooo good now I love it!

Not too crowded big open park

We visited the Philly Food Truck Festival at the FDR Park, Besides for difficultly finding a parking spot we had a really nice time there.

Didnt actually walk around the park but skate park is awesome. If I could skateboard I would be in heaven.

Very nice park, the trailsare nice to walk .

Nice park. I preached my sermon here.

Great spot to kick back and relax. One of Phillys great parks.

Good park just peoples dont have accountability thats all,hard for Philly to have nice things.sad face

Awesome space for awesome things to happen.

Plenty of shady spots, suitable and set up to accommodate variety of activities. Relaxing. Pleasant atmosphere.

Its clean. Somewhere you can go to have a nice picnic or to clear your mind near the water

It has a nice layout. But, its a muddy disaster half the time, the roads are in serious disrepair, and it could use more litter clean up. I hope the money comes through to rehabilitate the park.

It was great gathered with friends until the mosquitoes on steroids came and bit me viciously and my my bite was the size of the circumference of a plastic red cup you play beer pong with tf I ended up in the hospital I probably have Lyme disease but its cool

Lots to do, from vast walking trails to a skate park. Excellent way to spend Memorial Day though far enough away from others.

I loved it. Always do

Food, events, rides. Who doesnt love fdr if youre a south Philadelphian. Come visit

Proper cleaning is required. People need to be more careful of protecting the environment.

Beautiful when maintenance properly but the people that go to this park often than not throw trash around and not properly dispose of it.

Been twice with the family for fishing days. Really enjoyed ourselves

I enjoy FDR Park. Its safe and a good place to walk my dog in the morning. It gets more crowded as the day goes on.

A bit of everything for everyone. Little playground. Baseball, soccer among other fields. I saw a skate park. People were fishing and taking awesome photographs. An excellent place for the whole family. Nothing fancy though. Bring a snack, and some hand sanitizer.

Dont have refrigerator & microway no breakfast and so many things more God bless America and deposit 300.00 by insurance.danm

Beautiful spot with plenty of parking, tennis court, and a lake

I love going there with my kids to feed the ducks, fish, take a walk, & watch the sunset and love photography. My kids love the playground there also.

Its nice that they finally repaved the road

We attended the Philly Food Truck Festival, the food was amazing (Lamb Cheesesteak!) The vibe was incredible, great weather, beautiful park scenery. I would highly recommend FDR Park for maybe taking a walk or a jog. There is also a playground.

Populated but Im place to ride a bike and walk the dog.

Beautiful....even better of they would fix the street. Oh and stock it with trout and Bass

Way too many youngsters in their hot rods causing trouble!

FDR Park is great for walking terrible for driving enormous potholes throughout the Lakes

Gorgeous! I bet even better in the spring time.

Nice place to explore nature in the city. Skatepark shows the talent an inovation of the skaters building techniques.loved it

Had a great time with my family and friends

There are many activities to do here, fishing, bbq, and tennis court. Just as long as you clean up after yourselves lol

Went to Food Truck Festival here. Beautiful!!! Lots to do here and its huge!!

City Life Philly outdoor services awesome setting !

This park has its sweet points. There is a little area near the water that people propose all the time. You can fish here and have family gathering and events. There are always cute little ducks and other critters there as well. Its huge so try not to get lost. Parking is a bit of a hassle sometimes. Especially when its busy.

Tailgate at FDR park for eagles games. A lot of space to have a good time even though there are a lot of people doing the same thing. Try to avoid the corner near the the softball field is tailgating as there is always some sort of flea market or festival going on. Nothing wrong with that but a flea market and Eagles tailgating don’t mix. FDR is always clean and there are plenty of portable restrooms around.

Absolutely love this park. So big and a great place to exercise, relax, play, and explore. So much to do and see

Great place to enjoy the lake view.

Really pleasant park right next to the center of the city

For all skate types. Definitely one for the books.

Beautiful park with some unique old buildings. Its a very large park, lots of dog-walkers, and it is very popular for skateboarding at the ramps on the south side of the park. Definitely worth checking out.

The food they were selling was very good and cheap
