Beal Park — Attraction in Midland

We recently moved here and I would have never expected for this small Oasis to be so close to my neighborhood. There is fun for all ages. There is a playground, basketball courts, a skate park, a pond (with ducks), doggy park, hiking trails and a gazebo. We went on a Sunday evening and as expected it was busy but there was still plenty of parking and room to walk and play. It was a bit difficult to find bit there are several small streets leading up to it. I definitely recommend visiting especially if you have kids or doggies. It is a very pretty place.

The disc golf is very good. Parking is open and easy, the skate park is awesome. I dont skate anymore, but when I did my buddies and I traveled to try out many different parks. And beal is by far the best there is.

The 18 hole disc golf course is alot of fun. And debatable as to whether or not here, or Comanche trail in odessa is better. Just be careful on the first hole. I've lost 3 discs to the pond!

The fishing in that pond is good with worms... but the fish are small and not keepers. Maybe next year they will...
