This is one of my favorite parks in South Denver. It's a good-sized, flatgrounds park (you can see straight across) with plush grass, ample parking (small parking lot and plenty of free, street parking), and a walking path that goes around the entire park with some path splits along the way.

Park benches and places to rest are spread out through the park so picnicking is easy. All around great park for family fun with a playground to involve the...
Read moreGreat local park with lots of grass. Can be busy on weekends and during lacrosse season. All plastic playground with a basketball court.
