This is a wonderfully multi-purpose park. It contains multiple sports facilities and relaxation opportunities - each with its own dedicated parking area.

I took my grandchildren here for the Easter egg hunt. This park is absolutely beautiful while being surrounded with nature. There are roadways and pathways to bike or skate on, tennis courts, playgrounds for different ages, outhouses, drinking fountains, picnic areas and much more. The atmosphere was very fun for the kids but yet relaxing for the adults. I definitely want to go back here.

A beautiful small town park, with an excellent walking path, many sports amenities, some small woodlands, a couple ponds, and plenty of green grassy space.

This park is great! Though, it would be nice if Woodstock would build a skate park there to give kids some more things to do outside. (a disc golf course would be nice too while Im dreaming)

There was a parade thru the park for the clients that are part of Pioneer Center . Woodstock police and fire departments were part of the Summer parade. The clients had such a good time watching the parade and all the friendly faces in the parade.

Love this park. My husband plays baseball here on Sundays. Great ballpark field and lots of space for spectators to watch the game. Big trees that offer shade and it looks down to the field. Has a pool (never been) and a lot of other amenities for families.

Nice large park with 3 (maybe 4) different play areas with playground equipment. Partially wooded for shade in the summertime. Walking trails. They even have complimentart doggie doo doo bags along the trails, and one of the drinking fountains has a spout near the ground to provide water to mans best friend.

Park is great for just about any outside activity! Its in a safe community. Great for nice long walks, jogging, bike riding, kids playground, and just about anything else! I love coming here to see the fireworks on July 4th! This park is great! Check it out

I like Emericson Park. When you first enter, theres a pond on the left, sometimes with ducks or geese swimming in it. It has a challenging walking path, but one can end at just about anywhere along it and return to ones auto without too much trouble. There are sports fields for soccer and baseball; one can stop and watch. Lots of shade in the summer and, of course, a nice water park! I always see lots of folks picnicking here, obviously they like it as well!

Fun and exciting. This is a great place to go and be in the beautiful nature that Woodstock has to offer. The walking and running paths are beautiful as well as the two ponds that they have period every time I have visited there all of the people in this town have always been very cordial when passing on a walk. I highly recommend bike riding walking running hiking. Just a great place to get away! Not to mention the pool, a great addition to all of the fun things that Woodstock has to offer.

My brothers celebration of life was here. The park is huge! There was a wedding at the other pavilion, and nothing we did, or they did impeded on each others space in a public park. That is how big this place is. The grounds were well kept, and there was easy access to everything the park had to offer.

Was here for our family reunion. There was more park than family that showed up, unfortunately. Didnt appreciate the 2-2.5 hour drive (each way) either to get here when historically the location was much, much closer.Anywho, there was lots of parking of course because again, not much family came. Couldnt really navigate in the park due to lack of signage which made it hard to find our shelter (that didnt have a visible sign on it). The shelter we were in, was close to a playlot and a basketball court that the kids loved. There were plenty of tables for us to use and even working lights and electrical outlets which were accessible.The port-o-potties really blew my mind too, as I was expecting to see the type of restrooms that are usually found in park districts of this magnitude, e.g., in a small building with private stalls and sinks with hand dryers. And, we had to go back to the parking lot to use them!Overall, Emrickson Park is great for the locals and for events of our type.

Fun place to hang out with the family. Basketball courts, tennis courts, baseball diamonds, soccer fields, football field, multiple playgrounds for the kids, and 2 ponds for fishing. There are a few pavilions with picnic tables and walking trails throughout the park. The Northeast side of the park has a public swimming pool with slides and diving boards.
