Great Park newer has a great play place for kids. It is next to the River fun for place to swim at and to to start tubing down the river. beautiful scenery, especially along the river. It is along the walking path of the river and you can walk too many other places nearby.
Nice clean Park. Well managed a nice play area for kids and to walk dogs.

The park area seems a little bit less kept up from our previous visit. My first trip into the restroom was disappointing as only one stall has a door now and it didn't have any toilet paper, thankfully the other stall had some. However, park staff showed up later, cleaned the restrooms and placed toilet paper.
For all of us, the highlight of the park is Ogden Creek. There are numerous places to play along the creek banks. On a hot day it's wonderful for kids to cool off and get much needed outdoor time. For this reason alone, we'll continue to bring young kids.
You have a bike/walking trail you can catch at this park that will take you along the...
