Hillcrest Park

Large, beautiful park with areas for many different activities. There are both wooded areas (with some small trails) and open areas that would be great for a picnic. They have buildings for rent, with the lodge being the largest and most attractive. It's basically a large log cabin with an attached garden-esque area.

This park has been cleaned up a lot compared to how it’s been in the past. There are newer courts now, and a couple different playgrounds to choose from. It’s a great place to bring kids to play or to take dogs on a walk. The only reason I knocked a star off is because it’s not too uncommon to have sketchy people or teenagers being obnoxious hanging out in the parking lot because the park is pretty shielded by trees. I don’t necessarily feel unsafe there at all, but I’d prefer it if my toddler didn’t have to play ten feet away from some teenager’s cigarette smoke.

One of the best public parks in the area... if it only had a water feature. Also the drinking fountains don't work.

I've played here since a child. The woods do tend to house the homeless population but ive never had a bad experience. Always clean and my nephew and niece love it as much as i did.
