Love this park. There are several little sections with different set ups/equipment to play on. There are spots/equipment specifically for the smaller kids/toddlers as well. Plenty of swings and also handicap friendly ones. A couple of courts for basketball and even a pickleball court as well. They hold many events throughout the year here and during Christmas time will not only have hundreds of lights, but they also have train rides and hot chocolate on the weekends. We live on Hilton so we can literally see the park from our porch, so naturally we take our kids often and even when the bigger ones are in school we take our youngest on walks in her stroller often. Great little park for Families and anyone who likes to get out of the house. :)

Dissapointing park. Don't get me wrong there are tons of playgrounds and lots of nature which is lovely, but the entire thing just isn't made for people to actually use. There are no dogs allowed anywhere in the park, even on leash. There are no bikes allowed in the park either, even on the wide paved path. There is only one walking path in the entire park. They managed to build a massive road right through the middle with hundreds of parking spots but obviously ran out of money before they built the paths, making for a miserable walking experience. They need to close off the through road connection in the middle so vehicles don't use it as a cut through, there are so many cars in this place it just ruins the nature.

Central Park is fantastic if you want to go for a walk or play basketball. The playground equipment is in great condition and the park is always clean! Trash receptacles and restrooms are available. This place really comes to life in the Winter though! We go go to the "Winter Wonderland" display every year! THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of Christmas lights on Three dozen or more Displays fill the entire park with shimmering light and Christmas Cheer! It's worth the drive to Ashland JUST to see this display!

Really like all the renovations they have been making here at the park lately, modernizing the playgrounds, adding the swings by the pond, and fixing up the sports areas for kids. I was also married at the gazebo by the pond in October 2022, reserving the spot was very easy and the area was nice for our wedding day. We have also reserved the hut for 2 family memorials we had, also was easy to reserve this spot and thankfully turned out to be beautiful days when we used it.

This park is huge. It has a public restroom and is handicap accessible. Plenty of parking spots. Great for picnics... Bring extra for all the squirrels and the coi fish. It is very well shaded and has several benches for resting. Great place for walking or jogging. In the winter it is beautiful they decorate it for Christmas. Great place to go and relaxx and let the kids have fun.
