Great place for our family picnic, volleyball, basketball,swimming areas. Large open area around shelter for kids. Only problem is parking, only allow so many vehicles. Non-family park in area reducing parking for family. Pay parking is close.

It was a great gathering place for our group. Area was relatively clean. We tried to leave it in same or better condition than we found it.
