This is a beautiful park. Part of the milk creek metro parks. There are many trails and a shallow creek to follow. There is an indoor and a few outdoor pavilions you can rent. Also you can fish in the creek or play on the playground. They have basketball courts also and a lot of wildlife (geese and ducks)

This park made me so sad. Wed never been and it looked nice in reviews. When we got there, it looked lovely at first glance. Theres a cute bridge and a lovely looking creek. The playground is a bit old but it looks well maintained. There are restrooms, tennis courts, basketball courts and nature trails.So, why only 1 star? Well, they kind of need to rename it Sewer Creek Park. Its a crying shame for such a lovely spot to be so completely ruined by MASS amounts of sewer runoff and multiple sewer pipes cutting dramatically through the creek. It was so bad that the first thing I noticed were the large clumps of sewer scum bubbles that floated past as my kids played next to the creek. Some of them were 2 feet to 4 feet wide and at least a foot and a half tall. The water was so polluted that the smell was noticeable and no matter where I looked in the water, there were zero signs of life.We tried the nature trails but this was also depressing. When you walk towards them, you notice what looks like a waterfall but on closer inspection, its actually the creek just running over two high sewer pipes. Lovely. On the lower trail, what should be a nice walk past a pretty creek, just shows more sewer pipes jutting across the creek diagonally. The path is relatively thin in spots, with stone steps that are completely misplaced in a dangerous fashion, leading to a spot where the whole path has been wiped out by a small landslide. The only insects we saw were wasps which kept chasing my kids.IF the city could get the sewer pipes out and stop the others from dumping into the creek, it would be an amazing little park. Just beautiful. But until they do, I will never go there again. Just disgusting.

It was very nice except the lack of trash cans. That led to less responsible visitors leaving trash every where.

The park itself was beautiful, the trail along the river was gorgeous! It was also muddy and stinky in parts. If you are going to walk, where junky shoes. The playground was not big, but fun enough, and cared for.

I drive through Yellow Creek often on my way to and from work. This time of year it is well worth a stop to take a break from all that is hectic. I stand by the creek and take a breather. Its relaxing and beautiful there without many people. Great place to regroup.

Has a nice nature trail down by the river, but you need to wear tennis shoes for climbing rocks in some areas. The trail could use some attention for clearing fallen trees and definitely needs a trash can at the entrance to discourage people from leaving it on the trail.

I love this park its not a big part but it just brings back memories. I have gone here since I was a little girl. Its just a nice park. Swing sets for kids a little creek with a waterfall plenty of parking. Way back when there used to be a swimming pool and if you walk way back in the woods you can still see it where it used to be

Lovely park with shelter house, stream, bridge and hiking trails. We used the shelter for a group of 15 today. Nice rows of picnic tables with overhang that protects from sun and rain. We picnic with a group at least one per summer.
