This is a great place!, Centennial park is a public park that combines everything anyone would expect or want from a city maintaned space. The lake in the morning is stunning, glass water most days with the reflection of the surrounding commercial properties and apartments somehow adding to the quite picturesque scene cascading back an unexpected cityscape that mirrors commerce and activity as our city wakes up and comes to life. Life that is ever present in its natural state around one of my favorite places on the planet. A puppies paradise circles the main focal point of Centennial with plenty to sniff and greet along the well laid out and peaceful trail.
Weekends are even better! As little leaguers warm up in the crisp oxygenated air, the dugouts, infield, and green green gras of thier field of American dreams bustles with activity. Parents enjoying thier favorite athletes moment in the Colorado sun can relax and breath. Play Ball! PLAY BALL Boys and Girls, we're all lucky to have you helo us to live out our memories through you, as your younger siblings enjoy the slides and swings on the state of the art, safe, and visible playgrounds and wonder how long until they will be able to take the plate at this amazing little league venue, when they will hear the command "Batter-up" and experience the warm cheers in the morning gleam.
Bring your rod and real Dads... there are fish to catch here at Centennial and there bitting! Tell Grandparents to enjoy the moment too (and keep in mind the bathrooms are clean and easy to use). GOOD MORNING Centennial Park GOOD COLORADO MORNING -the Centennial state is lucky to enjoy your...

I i increased the rating because see the staff has put in more trash cans! I want to commend them, because I called them on an unrelated manner and they were so nice and responsive. It’s great to live in a city where the govt employees are willing to help!
So, the park. Itself is more of a three star (still) because I mean look at other parks...but this park is disadvantaged due to it’s location between a trash hauler, Santa Fe, Federal Blvd. and some rando haul place.
Original review
I or my dogs 🙄) am always finding old fishing line and food garbage packages close to shore- especially on the west side across from the apartments.
Of course, some irresponsible dog owners don't pick up their dog** either.
So, what could be a STELLAR community park is just so - so.
Nice that dogs can be off leash (seasonal check local rules) but honestly I partly blame the fact that trash cans are not common enough and the should put many down at...
Read moreThis is a great park during the day! Playground with great slides, a really cool x-large xylophone & more! + Bathrooms are right there for the kiddos (and they are clean!), along with a water fountain, covered picnic tables & bbq pit. Even more, it is a dog friendly park with specific off-leash times & fishing is allowed. There is a cute little side pond, that the bridge goes over, that has crawdads, turtles & little schools of fish. Also, an additional pond, off the beaten path, that has beavers, a lizard (musta been let go by someone as they r not native- I'm pretty sure), turtles & ???? Definitely beavers back there though. .- there are ducks & geese to feed of course, 2 baseball diamonds & basketball hoop, and at times, there are beautiful, picture perfect sky scenes (minus the power towers lol). The only bad thing is the people doing drugs across the street from the playground sometimes & the smell of trash at times. 🥴 But all in all, it's a really cool park with...
