A great park for everyone! Brought my 3 and 5 year old here, and they loved it. Short hiking trails perfect for the young ones as they dont last long usually.The trail besides the basketball court brings you uphill to the tennis courts. Going further up you will see the reservoir. A very manageable walk even for young children.There were 4 tennis courts. A mobile bathroom right there was convenient.The basketball court has the ground repainted recently. There are 4 full courts.The kids playground was on the small side, but right to it was a young challenge area with quite a few things to play with.In the same area was a fitness place, good for workouts without having to pay membership elsewhere.We were very happy with the park and would certainly come back. There were picnic tables by the water, great for a casual outing surrounded by relaxing views. Highly recommend!

The lodge was rented for my nieces graduation party/prom. It was as immaculate as a public place could be. Great space, lots of outlets, adequate restrooms, functioning kitchen. Could have used a better oven/stove. Also would have been nice had we been informed there was a freezer available.Security was tight; he meet us at 9pm, did a walk-through with us and locked up behind us.

Great place to walk, run, play tennis or what ever you like to do for exercise or perhaps a drive around the reservoir to relax your mind, breathe in the fresh air and practice social distancing. Beautiful views of the city and surrounding suburban areas.

This is a pretty cool park I haven’t been here in quite a while I see they’ve added a lot of exercise equipment and a playground for the kids definitely recommend this park to come out with the family and enjoy the nice day out.

Cobbs Hill is beautiful and diverse! The view from the top is stunning! It overlooks Rochester. Photo opt for sure! There are many different areas to enjoy. Tons of trails throughout. There is a reservoir! Washington Grove is one of my favorite places to go, you can park right on the side of the little street. It starts you on an incline. I love the water towers and the graffiti art! If you dont know how to get to them, just ask someone you see there, they will usually know and direct you that way! The fall foliage is amazing! Lots of ups and downs. Definitely a dog spot too!

Love this city park. Its right in the middle of everything yet if you get down into the trails it feels isolated. You have to check out the constantly updated graffiti

Convenient and easily accessible. Decent parking and lots of space for walking, picnics, or sitting and relaxing. The views are nice and the walking path around the reservoir is a nice place to get some exercise. The only downfall is theres no shade for the walking path

Cobbs Hill has one of the most beautiful views in Rochester. Its most definitely worth the time to visit. Walking around the reservoir is also enjoyable. If you come in the morning its not too crowded. A great place to go before work.

Went there for a softball tournament. The lights for the field didnt work. We had to end the game early due to darkness. The portable bathrooms were absolutely disgusting. They were full and no toilet paper was in them. Poor planning for have things working and clean.

Great park for pokemon go players, or runners looking for a huge hill to climb. Theres playgrounds, and a work out station on the lower half of the park.

Wish there were more places to sit down and rest, especially in forest, under trees, pines. When its hot and peaceful, its good to be in shade. Good luck with questioning and addressing those in charge.

Best, and most easily accessible, view of Rochester. Take a walk around the reservoir and get a panaromic view of the whole area. Hiking in the woods behind the park - highlight is water towers with the coolest graffiti Ive seen in the city. Love this park.

Cobbs Hill Park is one of my favorite places to go in the summer and fall months. During the summer there are plenty of places to walk or bike, and in the fall, it can be a nice break on a sunny day to set up a blanket and look at the hills of leaves as they change colors for the season.If you have time, dont forget to check out the reservoir. It is a great place to exercise with the flat track around the entire perimeter. If youd like more incline practice, is caution, but feel free to run along the roadsides as they incline and decline around the perimeter. Also, one of the best views of the Rochester Skyline can be seen from atop Cobbs Hill.

Excellent place to go for a relaxing walk or see a beautiful view of downtown or distant Finger Lakes hills. This place is a gem that Rochester is lucky to have!

Has one of the best views in Rochester (at the look out up alongside the reservoir). The reservoir is also one of my favorite places to run. there is a path all around it (I believe it is .71 miles a lap). There are also a good amount of running/walking paths through the woods in the park. I would also recommend the hot dog cart that is in the lower park most weekdays. i think MVP just added outdoor exercise equipment in the same part of the park as well.

I visited in the spring which is unbelievably beautiful here. You have panoramic views of the entire surrounding area, including the city.Theres a nice walking path around the reservoir and many other paths, plus large grassy areas. Lots of people were walking, running, sitting enjoying the views, walking dogs, and biking.A friend and I brought food and sat in the shade to eat, enjoying the warm sunny weather while looking out on the trees and hills. There were also many families with young children playing outside or walking the paths.

I grew up going to Cobbs. Its come a long way. Great trails to walk, an amazing view of downtown from the reservoir, and now fitness classes you can participate in for free. So much more to mention, but I urge people to experience it firsthand.

Such a great old park. Has features that seem like things that would be super expensive to replicate. Very cool up near the reservoir: some great trees and great views. Awesome playground, basketball courts, and tennis courts.

Re
Review №92

Lovely views and great walking or bike riding area. senic and well maintained public space free to go and to enjoy. definitely a wonderful Rochester Landmark. I love going up to the water reservoir for walks or to jog. The view of Rochester is beautiful up there. The only negative is that there are no bathrooms up there. They do have a water fountain. They do have bathrooms on the other side of the park near the pond. We also love going up there to see fireworks on holidays since you can see both, the city’s and Brighton’s.
