Saturday, March 25th, 2023 late afternoon Cheesman Park Free street parking surrounding the entire park (read all signs/certain months/times of year may not permit parking)This park was on our list to experience during our week in Denver. We easily found free street parking, we enjoyed a nice park stroll in the cool weather, plenty of people around walking, jogging, conversing, playing with their dogs, singles, couples, families, duo and small groups of folks. We saw some roller skaters having the time of their lives and a whipcracker practicing their skill both intriguing to watch. Porta potty bathrooms but empty hand sanitizers. The entire park was perfection, beautiful, inviting, safe, relaxing, scenic views, very cool vibes that puts you in an instant good mood. Plenty of benches and space. We throughly enjoyed our time here and we'll be back when in Denver.

Once you are close look for street parking. There is no dedicated parking lot for this park.This is a popular spot to bring your dog. I saw other people running and going for walks. I did not see any other people with kids, but I'm sure in the summertime more families are here. I may just be one of the few crazy people who still always brings their kids outside in the wintertime. For those with kids there is a playground here. Also in one of the corners of the park there are tons of squirrels. They are quite friendly.There was construction going on on the fountains while I was there. It looked like they were replacing the stone blocks around the fountains.

This is my favorite park in Denver! It has so many trees to hammock in or hang out in the shade while also having a lot of open space with direct sunlight. The only thing I don't like is all of the no skateboarding signs they just put up around the monument. They look bad and who cares if people skate there?

Cheesman park is just across the street from my home. It's my favorite place to unwind for the day. Plenty of hammock spots and space to picnic. This open park is my favorite out of the entire city. Running paths included as well to get your run in! Also biking paths. Lots of fun activities throughout!

As spring is now here, going to parks in Denver is becoming a bigger part of ways to spend your time. Cheesman park is very walkable to those who live in Cap Hill. Parking can be a bit touch and go on very beautiful days. Street parking is the primary option around here. There's tons of open space to walk around or just sit in the park and relax. You'll often find a volleyball squad, dogs on a stroll, and more. There's not too much for permanent work equipment or a playground from what I've witnessed.It's a great open space with nice scenery and space to mingle.

This park is the perfect place to relax on the weekend. The park is 80 acres and includes trails -some shade- and a huge lawn that is perfect for picnics, games, or just laying down to soak up the sun (which you can tell is what I did from my picture!)On the weekends you'll find several wedding parties taking pictures (usually near the pavilion) but the park is so large that there's plenty of room for everyone! There are bathrooms. When they close seasonly, they do still have Porta pottys. This park is close to the zoo and the botanic gardens.

Not in the safest area for kids. Playground is off to the side near a neighborhood. Had some sketchy people walking around. Parking is also very difficult to find and cars were being broken into in broad daylight. Be careful if you bring your kids here.

I love how this is my neighborhood strolling spot. It is popular with sunbathers on the weekend no matter the temp. It is "vanilla" in visual interest. Large open field with a solitary pavillion and paths which run the perimeter ( a mile?). Mostly closed off to traffic.The botanic garden is adjacent, admission applies. When it starts blooming, maybe it will add a splash of color to the landscape.

I agree with Larissa (previous reviewer); this is a very crowded park with too many dogs off leash. We normally go to City Park (big, beautiful, lots of space) and walked the pups at City this morning but decided to try Cheesman in the afternoon - boy, was that a mistake! First thing, there was no street parking (this was on Sunday, they block off some of the streets around the park). We did the outer perimeter of the park to avoid all of the off leash dogs and also had to dodge cars during some sections because the sidewalks had not been cleared. Walking on the pretty broad street within the park, we also had to move aside for runners and bikers who seemed to think they had the right-of-way. It was not the peaceful, beautiful walk we had hoped for.If you live across the street, this is probably a convenient location - but for everyone else, go to City Park which has: ample parking, lots of paved paths (cleared of snow), you can walk for over an hour without repeating the path, big, beautiful trees and ponds, and lots and lots of space.
