Very populated paved trail. Well maintained but a lot of people from the surrounding apartment buildings. Nice to be outside but its not a place id say you can get away from people at.

My 101 year old mum enjoyed seeing the animals so much and the kids loved the soft play. It was amazing! Nice cafe too with healthy lunch options for the kids.

The beauty of this park is in how everyone come together to either walk around it, or run or any other activity as kids enjoy the playgrounds and other enjoy the exercise equipment and the cover picnic tables. But please do what is possible to leave the areas you enjoy better then you found them!

Its a very lovely public area. Perfect for walks and pictures. It really is a very picturesque area, especially for prom photos. Parking is available and restrooms are in the park. There are lots of animals in the area, but no feeding. There is also a docking area and a deck for fishing (only catch and release though). Plenty of space for picnics and barbeques. Oh, and a basketball court!

One of my favorite places to go for a walk. Fresh air, lakes, nice view. Everything gives you a positive feeling. Recently all bushes and dead trees have been cut off and it looks a little empty but I think theres a reason to do this and I hope well have more beautiful, lovely trees to come back.Thank you

Century Park is a very nice place to go to with your family and friends or just yourself, it has a place to go and be under a tree to sit down and eat. The park has a lots of parking places for anyone to use as some are even under trees and that is really good in the heat of summer months. Theres indoor bathrooms thats open to use when the park is open as its so nice to have indoor plumbing to use anytime of the year.

A lovely spacious park well maintained with benches to sit and relax as the lake and trees sway in the breeze. I go there to fish and enjoy the day.
