Fairly new so the trees are still young and need time to mature. Easy parking, a beautiful trestle bridge overlooking the wetlands, lots of open fields for flying kites, and numerous paths for walking, biking, or rollerblading. The pavilion is for rent which can be annoying but it is far enough away to not interfere with any outdoor activities on the trails.TIP: Mid-June the wildflowers are in full bloom

Awesome trail for biking, jogging or simply strolling vast land of nature’s beauty just by the Grand Rapids, jewel in busy city best way to unwind and relax with so much to do like fishing, kayaking, there’s nearby beach area for family specially for kids. Good place for peace and quiet!

Easy walking on a mix of paved and developed trails. The paved trails were expanded as of October 2020. Check them out.

Beautiful walking trails and great pavilion.

Really cool to walk around here its where my sister got married

Excellent, clean, well maintained, inexpensive secure fee based splash pad and beach area. The white sandy beach is groomed every night. Large well featured, fenced in splash pad. Tons of parking. Tons of paths, trails outside of fenced entry fee based area.$4 adult$3 senior$2 child

I love this little area.. youll find me walking the trails all year round, and biking the summer months. No two days are the same.

Great for Weddings! My beat friends wedding was lovely

I love walking my dog here. Its clean and beautiful! Very peaceful and relaxing place to be.

Great paved multiuse trails only 15 min from downtown GR. 18 miles of trails in total and being the largest urban Park in West Michigan gives plenty of opportunities to explore.

Beautiful spot to walk and watch birds and wildlife without cars crossing trails (as they do on the rail trails). Great paved trails for biking and walking. Trails connect fromJohn Ball zoo area down to Johnson park. Nice picnic areas. A hidden gem!

Peaceful and very nice. Great work.

Spacious! Trails everywhere for biking, jogging, walking, and hiking

Wonderful place for nature lovers, great fishing, nice trails, friendly people. A great place to bring children and let them romp around until tired.

I did a thing here and it was fun and enjoyable.

Great place for a quick walk to spend time with friends and family.

Nice place to walk run and bike we walked six milesTrails are well marked.

Out of the Darkness walk by American Foundation for Suicide Prevention held at this location. Lovely surroundings !

I have met Mr.Secchia. Basically the wealthy people of Grand Rapids give back to the community substantially. This beautiful park Is appreciated by many people.

Wonderful bike and walking paths. Always enjoy my walk there with my Miniature Schnauzers

Great natural atmosphere to see live music. Lots of fun!

Beautiful and clean grounds. relatively inexpensive. The fabulous weather was a plus.

There is nothing but Meadows, big ponds that connect to the river, and of course a bridge. It is pure serenity my absolute go to place for some me time!

We attended the the now annual Kent Districf Lihrary festival with the featured event,being a pork rib grilling competition. There were live bands, games,prizes,local beer,wine and cider. The venue is first class for such an event.Reccommend this event for an entire family outing.

Great park

Not my first rodeo, just go

Beautiful, spacious park with lots to do.

Free Jazz Monday nights during the summer!

Probably the cleanest park in grand rapids!!

This is a beautiful park and Im envious being that Im from the east side of the state. As much as I am pure Michigan kinda guy it kills me to say that compared to a lot of other states it seems to me Michigan falls short of the care, maintenance and atmosphere you find elsewhere. Slowly Im starting to notice a change in all that with the new additions of parks or the renovations of existing parks with the west side of the state leading the way which I hate saying but its true. Awesome park and I hope the locals here appreciate and take care of this wonderful place.

This is a great place to take the kids during the summer. They have a splash pad and swimming area and the rates are very reasonable. You can also rent a canoe, kayak, standup paddleboard, rowboat, or paddle boat. There are also paved trails throughout the park which are great for walking and exploring nature.

Quiet place with great views

I think this is a good parking place for someone who is just looking to hit the trails. You can access the whole park and it seems less busy further away from the playgrounds and water access.

Beautiful. Great place for a walk.

I came here for a special event and was very impressed by the facility. Nice big covered pavilion, bathrooms, filtered water drinking fountain....great place to have a big event!

Nice walk for a nice cause!!

If your idea of a relaxing day at the park is running in terror from an army of filthy insane hobos then by all means get your freak on.
