This is a very nice park. Big park with lots of open areas to have activities in. Two playground areas that I noticed. At least two restroom facilities. Several pavilions and several different parking areas around the park. I noticed that the grounds and restrooms were very clean when we were there. I would definitely recommend this park.

Nice park, great trails to walk in supposed to have a long cycle trail also

Beautiful park with something for everyone. Plenty of restrooms, amazing walking and mountain bike trail. You could easily spend an entire day here with the family.

This park is always nice. I usually try picking up trash just to help out but there was more than usual this time. What I picked up didnt seem to make much difference.

Great park to take the kids and play on the way grounds. Or you can go for a bike ride on the many bike trails. Or just go for a hike or a run. It is well maintained and the wild life is relaxing. Watch out for crazy squirrels charging your car head on.

The City of Waxahachie has really turned this park around. Wonderful place to do all sorts of things. Take the kids, go alone or take a huge group. Very impressed with the turnaround here.

Very clean, other guests very nice.In general a very safe place to visit.

Nice park. They have 3 pavilions, a couple of bathrooms, picnic tables, bbq grills, covered play areas and a walking trail .. the park is covered in huge beautiful shade trees.. the park has been there for many years..

Fairly nice and quiet park, bathrooms open year round which is a plus. Couple stragglers here and there though, might not be the safest too too late after sundown.

Ive always loved it, I grew up on ignurt hill and rode my bike there since I was about 9. Theres something special there. You can almost feel our ancestors presence here, kids running and playing all around. Im soon to be 49 and its still a magical place that takes me back to every crazy thing we did there and how special its always been. My grandma first took me there at a very early age. Thank you God and Grandma and Getzendaner park- Jody John Vance

Ive visited this park countless times over the past 20 years. The equipment has been upgraded and a couple new safety features added but honestly the trees are the main attraction. Giant old oaks shelter you from the sun making this a great place even during the summer months which can be unbearable in North Texas.

Great park with huge open space for the kids to run and play. Trails are cool and pretty non technical...kid friendly. Thanks to the volunteers that put in countless hours to maintain it. Kudos to them!

Very clean comfort rooms and nice place to bond with family

Beautiful, clean, and shaded park. Love the mature trees. Great trails for walking and riding bikes. Enjoyed the visit.

Beautiful Trail, Absolutely beautiful!Perfect for walking, running and biking

Beautiful and spacious. So many trees and shaded areas.

I didnt go to the park, only to a dr. nearby.

Lovely large park with lots of trees. Playground equipment, picnic tables, grills for your food, walking trail, restrooms.

Great little park with really fun walking, and bike trails

This park is #goals for every other park Beautiful, huge, well maintained, lots of play areas!

Nice area with plenty of shaded picnic areas. Hike and bike trails could use better trail markings.

I love this park its walking trail is great. The trail mostly shaded and the park is shaded.

Nature walk was awesome kids played and had a wonderful time

LOVE this park.3 different playgrounds. A cement walking path and a walking path in the woods. Lots of trees means lots of shade

Great family place. Paved walking trails and a mountain bike path.

Restroom pretty far but its an actual facility, three different playground sections with slides, swings, mazes, and a real tree to climb! One playground is shaded other two not. One playground is handicap accessible. Nice long walking/jogging trails available.

This park is so beautiful. I was visiting from San Antonio

Nice, big park with lots of beautiful trees, and 3 different playgrounds for your kids to choose from. It has a paved trail with fun workout stations you can stop at, or dirt paths, if you prefer a more rural walk. My kids love it here!

Awesome has good bike trails not hard some medium

Lovely, large, clean, lots of shade, picnic tables, walking trails, beautiful....Special needs play ground too. 3 playgrounds in total.

I’ve been going to this park since I was a kid. Always kept very clean and tons of different play options for the kids. Multiple gazebos for picnic / party space. They also have trails with mile markers and fitness challenges along the way. My kids love going into the bridge over the water, and exploring the woods.

This place gets more n more beautiful everytime I visit!

Used to be a wonderful beautiful place. The ground is falling out now near the creek. The sidewalk is caution taped off because the sidewalk caved in. A dead body was found a year ago out there. Person was jogging at dusk. Its believed they were murdered. But it was not solved. The mosquito problem has grown beyond reason. A bunch of church events are held out there, not that I have any problem with them. But they are very aggressive about it I was in the park with my child sister on a tuesday, we were in the park next to the park they were in and they had a megaphone screaming at us we needed to attend or wed go to hell. Went out there a week later on a weekend and there was another church even where they had loud speakers singing karaoke that could be heard from the other end of the park. We were quiet and didnt interfere but a church goer approached us and said theyd like if we could leave the wanted the park to themselves. Went about 4 months later (last weekend) and again church group was out there. This time there was no problems. They again had loud speakers and were blasting church songs. Very obnoxious. Still a beautiful place. Just dangerous, buggy, and full of loud people.

Plenty of shade, plenty of space and plenty of picnic tables. A little short on parking.

Its a very nice park!!!!

Getzendaner Park is lovely! I always enjoy coming to this park and letting the kiddos play. We like walking the trail there both paved and unpaved.

There is always a great amount of shade, to walk my dog.

This is a great park, the paved trail stretches for miles and has workout stations scattered along its length with instructions and some equipment. I didnt try any of the recommended exercises but liked this aspect of the park that I havent seen elsewhere. A couple of bridges led to some nature trails that were decent, and the park also has nature trails that are designated for bikes. I would consider returning here with someone else.

Its Great for a walk especially in the evening. Everyone on the trails are friendly and the park is never dirty.

Cool mountain bike trail.

We love the massive trees and pretty trails.

Nice pretty and clean. A lot for the kids to do.

Family had a great time

Fun place to go alone or with a group. Has a wonderful 7 mile concrete walking trail. Also has mountain bike trails.

Beautiful just beautiful.

Its a pretty old, well established and well maintained park. There are many setups with equipment for kids to play on and an entire setup for children in wheelchairs.There are trails through the woods surrounding the park and along the creek that is a prominent item.There is also a cement walking/bike trail that has simple exercise and balance equipment placed periodically along is 7.6 mile length.Ive seen concerts in the historic Chautauqua Auditorium that have become some of my favored memories.Mostly, I find myself in a shaded parking spot using part of my lunch reading on napping!

Great place for exercise and hang out with family n friends

I always seem to find and see something new! The bike trails on and off the main trails are great, and oh the trails off the main trails are a workout when you have your 2 yearold your toating in his carry-on compartment. The main trail is well marked and my legs got a great workout. There is a dog park also, there is a prk at both ends of the trails also! Love it! Love the landscape and the peace I seem to find when I ride.

Great park. Wonderful trails.

Great place for walks and the kids will enjoy the park

Clean, well kept and shaded, lots of different parks for a variety of ages. Also a fantastic place for pictures, with beautiful natural back drops, bridges, benches, and huge trees. Great for a family picnic or solitary stroll.

Nice stop at the end of the Western end of the Waxahachie Creek Hike & Bike Trail

One of the best places for a car show.

Thanks Waxahachie for supporting outdoor activities.

THE BEST park in South Dallas-Fort Worth. Three playgrounds, the walking trail head, the mountain bike trail runs parallel, lots of picnic tables and multiple playgrounds. Completely shaded with trees that are older than anyone is alive today. If youre worried about safety, Police do drive through on a regular basis.

My daughter loves to run around and play at Getzendaner. I grew up playing at this park and have tons of nostalgia bringing her here. It could use some more toddler friendly slides and play equipment along with some update water fountains or even a splash/mist pad. It does the job though if you just need to tire your tot out.

This historic park embodies beautiful trails, and picnic areas. Stay on the trail as you will run into wildlife (snakes).

My son loves coming here, he wears himself out and then hates to leave!

Awesome park. Tons of walking trails.

Is amazing and beautiful place

Great trail, plenty of shade trees

Very nice looked clean, walked the Mountain Bike trail and it looks really well maintained and good signage. Didnt take any pictures myself but my wife did. Only advice is look out for big foot in the woods.

Been coming to this Park since 1970. Love the creek and hiking trails. Not as many trees as use to be. Storms and old age took some of bigger pecan trees. Still a wonderful safe family park or taking a nap under one of trees and feeding squirrels

Awesome place for runners and there is a dirt trail option for people who bike too. I run at least twice a week here. Getzendaner Park and White Rock is where I usually run at

Hiking, biking and walking, great!

Nice Park very clean the trail is enjoying.

Lots of places to sit and seems cleaner than usual.

We had great time on this park I love those tall trees..

Love the tall trees!!

Wonderful park and they had a wonderful home town Christmas experience Saturday night it was simply beautiful and totally free. Kids and adults all had a wonderful time.

Old mature city park with great large shade trees. Well maintained, and connected to bike and hike trails. Centrally located in city close to shops and stores.

Best hometown walking paths in all of Ellis County bar none.

Nice. Clean n calm

Love how there is so much shade! Wish there was more water fountains/faucets for kids and animals to cool off at. But otherwise we love this park!

Always a fun place to visit, despite some issues with impatient drivers behind you while you try to park.

Beautiful park full of trees we enjoy coming here !

Serene and tranquil place to rest and relax. Fun place to people watch. Great riding & walking trail. Nice picnic areas to eat casual meals. Community entertainment venue.

Lovely place and lot of green

This is a very large and open park. The street circles around the park area with a walking path along the outside of the street circle. In the park, there are two large playgrounds with multiple sets of swings. There is also plenty of room to play catch, tag, or frisbee. There are picnic tables scattered throughout the park. One of the best things is this park is almost completely covered by a tree canopy. So, you are pretty much guaranteed to be out of the hot sun while you eat or play.

Great view, absolutely beautiful. Just need something for the more sportsy adult (basketball or tennis court, frisbee golf etc)

Such an amazing park. My dog loves chasing all the squirrels.

Great quiet place, better than some Dallas parks! Great place to get away from the big city!!

Was good as always. Even had a man talking about god and confessing how great life is

The trail is amazing, and it never gets old! My favorite forever and ever

Very nice and clean park.

Always Fun and Clean. Today was a Big Chevy Truck Event with over 1,000 Trucks --- Totally Awesome

Great place to bring your family and pets. Theres a walkable trail if youre just into the scenery or on a workout binge for the month! Multiple play areas for the kids. Love coming here to relax

Kids love it here. Can not wait to move to waxahachie so we can go more often.

Great place to walk lots of trails.

I love this park. Its so Beautiful!

Nice park great walking and playing

This is a perfect place to play football and hang out with friends

Great place to take family for a gathering. Also great for my morning run. The park is well kept and maintained.

Love this spot for the pokestops

This is my place to meet with the Lord... Its my little paradise... I have started running recently and each time I have been here its been everything I want and need to exercise and meditate... oh yeah my dogs love it too. :)

Great place to walk or play for all family members.

Great Trail for exercise taking walks running riding bikes, nature, Play Park for the kids.

Nice park for pictures. Appreciated that they have real bathrooms and not portapotties.

Nice park for activities

So...its a park....but it could be so much more...
