I went there for a church picnic and in addition to a bunch of woods (and I think there are a few trails) we found a nice open field and reserved a pavilion where we had fun, played games, and ate food.

Very beautiful park, well maintained. We saw deer in the open field near our pavilion! Bathrooms are nearby wherever you happen to be. There are playgrounds and grills & lots of picnic tables to encourage family gatherings. Great location!

Beautiful park for the whole family! Mature wooded acreage to explore with a creek running through it. Many playgrounds and pavilions for gatherings. Lots of shade with some breezes to keep the bugs away. Large grassy areas big as a soccer field. Bathroom buildings and more. Check out this hidden gem!

We love Palmer Park! Close enough to our home to walk there and spend endless hours wandering the trails.The trails are clearly marked, depending on how much you want to walk / run. Always see a ton of wildlife - deer, birds, squirrels, chipmunks, ducks, etc. The park is super clean and well maintained. Just wish there were more trash receptacles.Looking forward to playing Kaufman course at Palmer Park soon.

This park is very beautiful & cool becoz of the very tall trees. As they sway from side to side the effect makes one to be at peace with nature! I enjoyed the Kenyan function & l made friends with some ladies from Kenya. I would love to visit it again.

Excellent park, two play grounds, hiking paths, bathrooms.Well maintained, clean, good neighborhood.

Review №24

Its very beautiful, lots of lovely wooded trails. You can really enjoy nature. However, the main restrooms are unavailable during the week for some bizarre funding reason. There tend to be a lot of mosquitoes and bugs so you need bug spray to hike the trails. The golf course is intertwined so you cant walk on the paved areas without golfers shouting at you to move. That was confusing.

Review №62

Very clean but dont like the new construction they have dont at the end of the drive. They took out the very enjoyable boardwalk they use to have and brought down the banks by the creek there. Now every time it rains it floods over so you cant even go near the trails at the end for a few days after it goes down. Very poor planning on the outcome of the construction that was done

Weve been going to Palmer Park with our family for over 20 years now. Personally, its my all-time favorite park.Weve had countless times where weve met family and friends and grilled and our young kids had such fun playing on the nearby playground equipment creating great memories.Im saddened that the nearby boardwalk was closed down and removed. I loved the opportunity to walk along the boardwalk enjoying the quietness and serenity of Buck Creek. My kids have had great times getting to go play in Buck Creek after grilling out trying to catch fish or crayfish. Theyve gone home many times soaking wet as I would allow them opportunities to play in the water on hot summer days when we werent prepared and it was on the fly. Discovered this past week the road is now blocked by bolders stopping vehicular traffic but you can still walk down to the creek.Theres a great trail system I especially enjoy walking thru tall pine trees and old forest growth. You can walk along the creek and even see a marker regarding an oxbow where part of the creek was cut off.Ive come to the park on my lunch hour many times just to get away from the office and enjoy the quiet peacefulness of the shade while sitting in my car reading.

The golf course and Palmer Park are connected and provide a great place for cross-country skiing activities. Many hours of enjoying the winter in Michigan is available here, if you like to classic cross-country ski.
