Jacobson Park

I came here this afternoon looking for a new park to explore with my dog. Upon arrival, I could tell that this park was huge! There are plenty of green spaces and empty fields to play frisbee, flag football, or volleyball. I drove to the dog park area since the park is strict on having the dogs on leash at all times, so I went there. The dog parks for both small and large dogs are enormous! I have never seen that size of a dog park since I was in Colorado--and that state is known for being pet friendly, so their parks and restaurants are 90% pet-friendly. I took my dog to the small dog park as he is small. It was still 4 P.m. and too hot for my dog. There are not a lot of shades in the small dog area compared to the large dog area. I did not stay that long as my dog did not like being grilled under the sun. I checked out the rest of the park by driving around and noticed a vast playground, a marina (although the water has receded), empty fields, a picnic area, and even a camping area! If I had come later in the day when it was not too hot for my dog, I would have enjoyed my stay here. I have seen plenty of residents around here with their kids, birthday party groups, and groups playing frisbee. I can tell that it is a great park to visit. Cool spot ~

Stopped by because I hoped to see birds. A bird watching Facebook site had awesome pictures so gave it a try. It was totally wrong time of day and too hot but worth a try. First time here. Really neat park. Rilling hills..forest. dog park. Play ground equipment. Picnic tables and shelters. Lake for fishing and kayaking.. paddle boats. Saw ducks and geese but not what I sought after. But it was wrong time and super hot.

This is a really fun park Jacobson Park that we took our daughters to while we were in the area visiting. And we're big fan of going to different playgrounds and parks and seeing the sights and let the kids be kids and play on the playground. And they had a great area for kids to slide and swings and they have a beautiful walking trails and everything is a great part for sure for the area give a try

This is my son's favorite park. The playground area is huge with different areas for all ages. It's fun to see the kids play as parents relax by the water and look on. The lake offers paddle boards and paddle boats. There is also a splash park (closed this summer) near the playground. And there is so much land to play on- soccer, etc.

Love coming here! I love coming here and being able to grill out and enjoy the nice weather in the spring/summer. Also really enjoy bringing my dogs here for the dog park although it does get pretty crowded during peak times. It is a beautiful well kept park in Lexington.

This park is one of my favorite parks in Lexington. It's open from dusk till dawn I believe. The sign says park closes at dark. And there is a park ranger that goes around announcing when the park closes so you will be aware. This is a really clean park and has a lot of amenities. From the dog park to the kids area to a small fishing pond. I let my dog swim freely in that pond whenever it's warm out. It's pretty clean and decent to kayak within in. I love everything about this park and would highly recommend anyone to come check it out that hasn't been.

This is a very nice park with a lot of open areas to just hang out in and do your thing. You can run, walk, fish, bike, fly kites, play frisbee golf, photograph the wildlife, play volleyball, cook out, fly your drone, play soccer, kayak, sail boat, , paddle boat, feed the ducks or fish, relax, get some sun, or play in the playground. Just do it before dark as the park closes every night at sundown. The park has many different species of birds including a family of bald eagles. Some are here to stay and some are just passing through. You can see some of the locals out and about hoping to catch the perfect photograph of the day or a lifetime. I've seen some pretty spectacular pics from this location. Come check it out and please take out what you bring in or deposit any trash in the many trash cans provided. Have fun and enjoys this great location!

My absolute favorite park in Lexington. My pup and I frequent the dog park seeing as it is HUGE and there are almost always a multitude of other dogs there to play! There are shelter houses available for parties or cookouts, and the lake is just beautiful.

Was literally soooo fun me and my kids had a great time would recommend for big families there is a water park so I recommend you bring a towel and a bathing suit also I recommend you bring a lot of bread for all the duckies they were so cute and a little mean I don't recommend you hand feed them

Love bringing the grandkids and doing the paddle boats or them playing on the playground. Lexington staple, I am glad they rebuilt the playground.
