This is my favorite Park here in Tucson, love that you can walk dogs, go for a bike ride, take a walk, do yoga and most importantly the memories I have with my grandchildren running and laughing.

This is and always has been a great park. Its primarily a dog park with three seperate dog runs if you will. However it also has a water park for young children during the summer. Well maintained and cared for. Also has basketball vourts, and soccer fields.

The park is awesome and so is the staff. They are friendly and always helpful. My favorite is Rueben, he’s a great guy who really cares about the park, it’s patrons, and especially the dogs too. I hope this guy gets a raise!I highly recommend this park! It’s a great place. Great atmosphere.-“Hubert”

Wonderful and clean place. A perfect spot for people all ages. The park is large with grass fields, basketball courts, playgrounds and a dog park. I love how beautiful they keep the grass all year long! You also have immediate access to the Loop. I definitely recommend visiting!

A destination spot to visit if one is doing any biking or walking along the river path. Hosting a water park, dog park, basketball courts, a large playground, chess tables and well maintained vegetation and grass. Shout out to the awesome groundskeepers who keep it looking beautiful and clean.

Beautiful location, well kept playing fields, nice kids playground, plenty of lighted parking. Dog park areas are small, could use some trees for shade and some more obstacles for dogs to play on.

This park is HUGE! 3 separate areas. 2 for big dogs one for small. This park is great! The only flaw is people who bring kids to a dog park. There is a park for kids right by it as part of the park. Hence 5 stars. This is the place to go! (Friday mornings there is a rehab group so don’t be scared)

Careful, the dog park fence in-between the 2 dog parks opens up because of poor maintenance.

Such a cute park. Its usually very busy primarily in the mid afternoon to early evening. The splash pad is a very cute addition and great for kids ages 3-12 although you may need to accompany your kid if there younger the splash pad is free of charge and usually it open during summer time

Big sprawling area with basketball, soccer fields, dog parks, and riverwalk access. The riverwalk access along this stretch is tight, so be aware of bikes and others getting on and off the path.

Brandi Fenton Memorial Park is a multi-use facility with soccer fields, basketball courts, dog park, water park, picnic tables, equestrian arena and a special memorial area dedicated to children. The memorial area is planted to attract butterflies. It;s accessible from the Rillito River linear park path. Just a terrific place for our community.

Nice park. Came primarily for the splash pad. Ground stayed cool and my daughter was able to play barefoot. LOTS of water here! Dumping buckets, ground sprinklers, sunflower showers etc, parents should bring clothes to get wet in! Not too busy during the weekdays. Shaded area and benches surrounding the place. You can bring a blanket or lawn chair and camp out under this huge shaded area. Also nice that the playground next to it is shaded.

Nice, well maintained park, adjacent to the to desert trail bike loop. Three off leash dog parks for different sized dogs; but the fences are are only about 5 feet tall, and their are many distracting ground squirrels right outside the fence. Ball fields, basketball courts, trails and open green space.

Brandi Fenton Memorial Park is a very nice public park. There are several picnic shelters, dog parks, covered basketball courts, childrens play areas, and an area where kids can cool off from the hot Arizona sun in a water park. The area is well maintained. We had a great time there with our friends.

An outstanding family park on the Rillito River. Great training arena and large arena for equestrian of all types. Arenas are open to the public. This is an outstanding venue for all your planned outdoor fiestas/partys and whatevers. Just left a wonderful LiverLife Walk sponsored by The American Liver Foundation and hosted by the ALF Desert Southwest Div... Wonderful function on a beautiful Southern Arizona fall day. Blue skys w a few light puffy clouds and temps in the low 80s. Couldnt ask for a better day.

Review №45

I absolutely loved this park. The splash pad is free and kids can have so much fun getting wet. We bought a pizza down the street and had a picnic right after, then the kids had so much fun in the playground area. There are also soccer fields and very fun for a family outing.

This was the first time I visited this park. I went there for a charity walk. The park is very large and includes soccer fields, a small and large dog park and more that I didnt see. The function I attended was dog friendly with water bowls set out and there were concrete benches around the area where I was. There was a wall decorated with beautiful, colorful, 3 dimensional tiles; I think they were from people who donated to the park. I really like the park and will return as often as possible.

First time here. I was pleasantly surprised. The water park was on steriods. The playgrounds, one for younger kids and older were new and fun. Most the area has cover and grass with picnic tables. Can be a little tough for toddlers but mine managed.

One of the best recreation spots in Tucson. The splash pad part of the park is amazing, there should be more of these!Lots of open green grass to play, on or just enjoy laying in the sun. Playground equipment is nice and well maintained. This is a place for kids! You will feel like one when you are there.

Everyone in Tucson is familiar with Reid Park and it can be very crowded as a result. Brandi Fenton is a lovely alternative with many of the same amenities, but less of a crowd. Brandi Fenton includes a dog park, a series of COVERED BASKETBALL COURTS!!!, 3 soccer full sized soccer fields, a butterfly garden, a decent sized SPLASH PARK, and an equestrian park. It is located right up against the Rillito River and the Loop bicycle trail. In addition, the park includes a number of historic buildings and is listed as an historic site.

Review №73

Fantastic splash pad. Perfect place to take your little one to cool off. Its out of the city, so you dont run into some of the park weirdos you see on the city. Clean and well kept. When the kids dont want water anymore, there are two playsets and plenty of open space to run. Shed areas and tables for the adults whod rather hold down the fort. Absolute summer staple.

The splash pad is really fun and fenced/gated. There is nice green space that is shaded for sitting on a towel or blanket and having a snack with friends. Playground is big and has wood chips on the ground. Easy on/off access to the bike trail. Bathrooms were smelly and no soap but otherwise fine for a park bathroom.

I love this park. We came here during the rain, and watched the river flowing. We walked the bike path next to the river, and meandered through the park. Nice place to play Pokemon Go.
