I just wish they had more trash cans or dog stations on the trail. But besides that a very well taken care of and large.

The park is nice and clean. There is a swimming pool area that is closed now due to the coronavirus, tennis area, volleyball area, pond with ducks and turtles and a walking trailer thats about 3/4 miles. Plenty of parking and you can also get your swing on, whether its golf or baseball.

Need some work done on basketball court. The goals and playing surface need help. Might want to think about putting some type of cover over playing surface too.

What i feel like a park is adding a skatepark cause there like 46 or more minutes and a large skatpark for skateboarders and a diffrent one for scooter and bikes yeah theres a huge space you can use in the ben gill park please it will mean a lot to me please

Needs to be updated with some TLC, but otherwise nice place to go for a walk with your dog and let the kids run around the pond and playground. Also has a nice covered picnic area and bathrooms.

Nice, paved path for walking around the pond. Plenty of picnic tables for lunch. Horrible public restrooms and poor playground. Not our first choice for a park to enjoy.

Beautiful park needs improvements on playground. The playground is all busted not safe for children and outdated and small. Not a good playground for kids but the pond with turtles and ducks was nice. The basketball area need improvement also. It is sad to have a nice beautiful park with run down equipment. Needs a splash pad and large updated play area with more picnic area. Like almost every other city park.

Lots of shade from the trees, some bleachers to sit down on if you need, a restroom. There was a game going on when we went to the park so we could hear the the announcers over the stadium speakers. There was a small basketball court where 2 people were playing basketball, but other than that we had the area to ourselves. We brought our cats for a walk.

My family & I enjoy jogging the trail, its also great that they added more sand and nets at the volleyball courts! Its great during the day, now only if they had night lights like the basketball & tennis courts it would be perfect!

Ive been visiting Ben Gill Park since I was a child, and over the years its gotten better. Its pretty, clean, has a great picnicking area, large playground, even a small pond where you can feed the ducks. Highly recommended.

Review №65

Its got a nice pond with a waterfall and ducks. It has a huge pavalawn with clean restrooms. it has s good size walking or jogging trail.it has a wooden bridge with a small stream running under it. It has basketball goals tennis courts and a soccer field.one of the bad things is you have to be out of the park by midnight or you get a ticket.it is patrolled. Oh, please watch out for snakes in the summer.they usually are located by the Rocky areas of the pond.

Nice park but the playground needs work. The location near the pond wasnt the safest idea and the mulch around the equipment was gone making the equipment too high up for kids.
