An absolutely gorgeous gem of a park! Huge driveway that circles around the smallish lake...more of a larger pond. Swans, geese and ducks share the lake. You can feed the fowl breadcrumbs, but be aware they're pretty demanding on being completely fed til theyre full. Lots of parkways along the lake to park your car.

Speed bumps deter fast cars. Use caution whilst driving as you share the drive with joggers and mothers with children in strollers. You feel like you're under a green canopy in the Spring and Summer months. Fall is an explosion of orange, yellow and reds. Will add photos soon...I recently changed phones and all of my pics are on my old one. The gates are closed in the evening. Every Christmas they have lighted displays from local churches...

Parking is typically on gravel, and seems sometimes, just pulling off the side...
Read moreFor a town the size of Bolivar, it is an unbelievably wonderful park. I would say it's a much larger park, than I've seen in any other town that is comparable in size to Bolivar. It's almost like a shrunk down, miniature version, of Central Park. There is a very nice walking trail, a great many picnic areas, as well as 3 different shelter houses, one of which looks like a giant native stone gazebo, plenty of waterfowl, including ducks, geese, and several swans, peacocks that roam freely about the grounds, lots of trees, which leaves the area with a pseudo-rugged feel, and a...
