Terrific place to walk and enjoy the San Marcos weather, the only complaint that needs to be addressed is how dirty and disgusting the walkway is underneath the E. Hopkins St. bridge. The bridge smells of disgusting black water, the lights don't work and the entire ceiling of the bridge is covered with mold and large amounts of spiderwebs riddled with dirt. I don't understand how this still hasn't been cleaned, its been like this for years and has not yet been fixed, makes me wonder where the money goes. The lights in the park have a 50/50 chance of working which shouldn't be the case.

Kids love this place. Though we all miss the old wooden playscape. This one does not feel like it has as much character. There are less trees for shade than there used to be. Also there used to be a nice shaded sitting area for the parent to chill while kids played but not there anymore. A few design choices I thing where nor considered.

Also while I am all for making it handicap accessible the fact that all up front parking is a bit ridiculous, when I have never seen more than 2 of the 6+ handicap spots in use.

Stopped by the river after a job fair for a picnic. It was peaceful and the water as clear as I remember it from my time at my Alma Mater. I'd recommend the San Marcos river for fun, relaxation, and even workouts.

Cute city park that backs up to some nice trails. We went to a doggie event there and there was plenty of room for lots of neat vendors and activities.
