Gardens Park — Attraction in Summerlin South

There's very long parking lots on either side of the park, a vast main space with grass and trees forming a ring around it, very spacious and pretty to run around in. You can definitely walk your dogs here, there's intermittent stops to throw trash and get bags to pick up after them. There's places with tables and shade and barbeque grills, and two playgrounds on one side of the park. The bathrooms are kept in good condition with soap and toilet paper always in stock. The park's community center there has very clean bathrooms too, and a nice lady that gives information about all the events and summer camps held at the park, speaking of which, there are TONS of fun events here! This has to be one of the best parks I've ever seen, and although it's not ridiculously big, it's by no means small either. Most importantly, there's an American Medical Response truck there all the time, which is something I don't usually...

There is a large playground for kids in excellent new condition . There are no super high drops, even on the older kids structure, which is a relief because smaller kids always go up on these things. The playground is far from the road so even though there’s no fence it feels pretty relaxed and in addition the road is quite .

There is also two tennis courts (which can be reserved in advance) , a basketball court and a rollerblading/roller...

I love this park. It's not quite the hidden gem anymore as it's busy a lot of the time now. However it's a very nice place for a walk and to get a little fresh air. The landscaping is very nice with thoughtful placement of the trees along the trail to give you nice shade patches. This is a great park for birdwatching as well. In the winter they decorate the park and have a big Christmas tree. The park is kept very clean which is greatly appreciated. I've been coming here for years and it's just a great little spot of green that feels like a little oasis in the city. For amenities there is a community center, lots of benches, BBQs, tennis courts, a skating/hockey area, volleyball, basketball courts. There's a decent sized kids play area as well. Plenty of parking but can get full at peak times like...
