Recommend visiting on a hot summer day. The trails are shady and lead you through vine-covered forest areas.You have to cross several water crossings over slippery wet rocks to complete some of the trails. Two of the trail map highlights, Indian Rock and one of the quarries are covered in graffiti. We entered at the Royal Gardens entrance (see red barn photo). There is some street parking, but it is a carry in/out park with no restrooms. The park is dog-friendly only if your dog likes water crossings--ours balked after 1. Views of the Indian Creek from the trail are woth the trip.

It could use some TLC for upkeep but its small and intimate park that gets the job done for childs. Its has 2 sets of swings and sliding boards to tire any kid out.

This park has plenty of swings, slides, things to climb and even a cute splash-ground area. This park would actually get 5 stars if it were a little cleaner. There are so many broken tree ranches all over. A little more maintenance would go a long way.

City Ave end of the park has wooded walking trails along Indian Creek. Mostly too rugged for bicycles.

This place have a lot of trees and a large field. They also have sprinklers for water play. It has a side for climbing(toddler) and a side for older children. Lots of nature. Park also offer swings for children about (4-5 for larger children and 2-3 for younger children. This park also have benches. Im not sure if the eating area was for just the camp but there was an eating area. As well as a restroom. I took my class most child cares and camps come during the hours of 11:00-1:00pm

This is a small, but very beautiful park with some hidden gems. Its a nice place to go for a relaxing afternoon in nature. Some of the trails are overgrown to the point of being nearly impassable, so be sure to wear long pants, a hoodie, and some good shoes.

Morris Park is where I go to calm my nerves by East Branch Indian Creek. It resolves me from anger and stress. And it is very beautiful to see the deer but is scary when the dogs are out there.

A hidden gem. Ive been driving past this forested park for many years and finally took the time to stop in.Primary trails are well defined and trail intersections marker with directional signs and small maps. Many minor trails were overgrown, passible in some areas.Poison ivy was evident along the sides of many trails and overgrowing on minor ones, stopping me from going down some.Indian Creek is the backbone of the park. Beautiful, with many large rocks and pools. I spied small fish and a large water snake.Trails on the east side (closer to 66th St.) Seemed better maintained, likely through local efforts.Very nice park
