A nice little secret within the city limits. You get a nice open space, with lots of shade. Theres the historic lower falls and hiking trails. Late June through August the Rose Garden is on full bloom. Lots of parking available.
Beautiful place but some of the visitors are problem makers. This parks located very close to some drug houses so I recommend not using the bathrooms.
Great park. Amazing history. Not the best part of town.
Its beautiful and a great hike. Love it there
Its a beautiful park. A great place to relax, have a picnic with the family. Also has a beautiful playground.
Nice spot to go to clear my thoughts Good Peace of the Mind
Nice scenic view. Beautiful waterfall and small hiking trails. Good for short walks.
One of the overlooked parks in Rochester. Beautiful trails, great views, and the Rose Garden was in top shape this year.
Love it full of nature I walk my dogs there every day..
If was a nice family place to be and quiet. Should go there on a nice day.
Amazing! So close by me! I kinda go there every day. You should go there!
I love this park ...take the kidos there every week️
I have a friend who lies in that area its always beautiful around there at this time of the year.
A beautiful place to walk and be free right in the inner city
Best entertainment park...my family & kids always love this park to visit...
Weve been going there since the 1950s. We as always had a fantastic time. A pizza picnic then I sat with my daughter while my granddaughters and my great great niece and nephew played on the playground
It is very peaceful
Great Picnic area, it has table and grills
Amazing trails and a cave at the bottom, but beware of the algae
Great scenery for fall
I played at this park when I was a kid and to visit it some 40 years later and see all the changes was truly a pleasure.
Very good place to go for relaxation meditation. It has picnic tables if you want to bring a snack with you. The roses are pretty and the waterfall is very relaxing also.
My kids love walking on this bridge
Nice park
Clean and never busy plenty of space for frisbee etc
Beautiful. park. Flowers were past their peak. Winter there is good sledding.
One of the best parks in rochester
There are restrooms but they seem to never be open. There is also a strong urine smell by and around the restrooms. The park itself is nice. Theres a rose garden and a fountain.
Lately been seeing a lot of needles from drug users laying all around. My kids like to go for walks through the flower garden but lately its been a lot of homeless people sleeping in the bushes, on the benches and making it an cautious environment as well as going down the trail. Its a beautiful place to go and relax your mind and look at the beautiful flowers
Beautiful rose garden
There were used needles and needle caps on the playground. Most of the playground has been destroyed. It used to be such a nice park, (25 years ago when I was a kid), its hard to believe how bad it is now. We were there for about 5 minutes and obviously left. There was no way I was allowing my daughter to play there
Great time if youre in shape lol
They should take care of this place especially the view of the falls they should term the trees and make the place more comfortable it will be a very good place for visiting from many people..
Plenty of birds and ducks to bread and cracker feed.
Beautiful rose garden in the summer, fun sledding when theres snow
I personally enjoy All the Beauty this park has to offer.The fishing trail for Salmon,Trout and other fish is dwn the trail.I sit out here and write poetry and read novels.This place has a rose garden,gazebo and grills for a cookout,also a restroom building.There is a trail that leads to the st.paul zooif you want to walk it or bike it on the bike trails.Enjoy the wildlife around you and just be Happy/safe.
A park is for people, and this one was full of all-age groups enjoying the park in the early evening. Nicely maintained and welcoming.
Not a bad place at all..
It is a nice park with limited walking trails next to the Genesee River gorge. The Lower falls are amazing, but best viewed by walking into Driving Park bridge. Trails have historical markers allong it tell the history of the rivers development.
Great places to spend family time
So nice, even at midnight, will be my favorite place to relax
This park seemed a bit run down when I visited. Recommend going somewhere else to spend a nice summer day
Beautiful park
It was great..very kept up...great place to take your kids and have a picnic..family time..
Picnic and a walk across the river gorge!
Absolutely beautiful
Beautiful place to sit and think, or just take a nice walk.
Good fun but I still miss the old park!
Great place to clear your head
Always loved this park as a child very sad it isnt the wooden park i was so fond of. To bad they never rebuilt it . Wish they would.... but happy i can take my child to the same park i went to as a kid
Of course its not the same from what we grow up with but its still a good place to take the kids from time to time
Great small park to have fun with the kids. Nice playground as well.
Cool place to hike along side of the river in bright summer days, some areas have shade, views of the river, falls and over looks.
Great park for kids. Lots of play space and fun equipment.
With a little bit more improvement, it has potential to be a great park.
Nice place to explore. Lots of trails.
Not busy, very quoet and peaceful
One of my favorite little parks to explore.
This was a nicer site of Rochester, but unfortunately man kind tends to litter
Beautiful, ran the Rochester half marathon through the park
Beautiful place for lunch
Relax and unwind great place if you live in the city of Rochester
Love to eat by the pond an watch the geese and ducks swim and you have the park right on the other side for the kids
Its a great place to take a walk or bike ride along the river.
Love to walk the trails and listen to the falls so peaceful.. really!!
Its a nice little park. Kids can go and have some fun. It would be good for a gathering like birthday parties or cookout
I absolutely love this place. It meets a lot of needs for me... scenic... has water... beautiful place to take pics.. great place to walk for exercise... good meditation spot... historical... just a great location altogether. Been coming here for decades and continuing to find new discoveries and adventures!
Beautiful park with walking trail
Love coming here just to hang out and enjoy the scenery
I have always been in this park since I was a kid. One of my favorite parks in Rochester
My first time here and I loved the trails and scenery!
Beautiful scenery just love sitting in the family!
Just a beautiful spot in summer or fall
Nice park, but the bathrooms were locked
Nice small Park you can come
We cleaned the park up and it looks a lot nicer.
Beautiful. All in one park..in summer I walk the trails. Great local sledding spot in the winter.
Nothing like the old wooden park!!
Warmth,dry,&wet,sunnytoo atcharolotte brach.6-8_19
Calm and lovely park. Alot to see.
Home of the Rose And maintained by the City of Rochester there are many species to enjoy. A nice gazebo to sit in, and a trail taking you down into the Genesee River gorge. Not patrolled well, I have seen drug deals and sex in the parking lot. The gardens themselves need some major overhaul. Visit, but be vigilant.
Peaceful and relaxing
Koool place think about things
Maplewood Park is a very nice place to go to for a picnic
Too many people in the parking lot getting high
Love going here to relax.
Wish ppl. Would clean up after their Dogs!
Pretty fun park, but theres some workout equipment there that children definitely shouldnt be on unsupervised. Overall fine.
Beautiful roses!
