Nice toddler and children park, it's well kept, trash cans, picnic tables, boat launch , lots of swings, lots of grass area for children to run. Porta potty on site. Ample parking . I have been here several times and it's never crowded, usually only on or two other families. We really like this park! Just wish there was an actual bathroom . Update: park is open. Park was empty besides park workers taking their lunch break in the parking lot. No children at the playground. Park is still well kept. Park is not covered so depending on time of day, the sun beats down intensely. Picnic tables are accessible, drinking fountain is also available as well as a spot to refill your water bottle. They have a small area to exercise on the metal bars provided. Two porta potties on site. The side trail is somewhat overgrown now covering some of the path, luckily there are plenty of branches that can be used as a walking stick to move the overgrown shrubs out of the way.

I love it here!I haven't visited this park in years. And I must say, when I visited last I do not remember it looking as it did when I visited about a month ago.I toured the park on an early evening during the week. I am looking to host an event here soon and figured I'd check it out first before reserving. One must contact Parks & Rec to reserve the shelters located here. There is a huge shelter towards the back of the park that looks to be perfect for a party size of 100 or less.The park is beautiful.There is a body of water in which one can sit or stand and enjoy the views.Super quiet and I love it.There is also an area in which one can exercise by following the posted exercises in a sand pit. I love this feature!There is a playground for the younger and older children. Swings are even featured here! I love the swings :)This park isn't super huge but I think it's a great size and you are lucky if you are the only one renting a shelter... it's small enough to feature an intimate setting... like a private party but you only rented one shelter. Parking seems decent. I think 20 cars can fit into the parking lot without worry but if more start to show up, this could be a problem. I am not sure if overflow parking is nearby.There is a narrow street leading to the park so one may be able to park on one side of the street... if not...not sure what the back up plan is.I'd say there are plenty of trees at this park so shaded areas are definitely present.At least one grill is located near each of the three shelters.I'd recommend you visit this hidden jewel in Chesapeake.I'm looking forward to returning soon.Have fun and enjoy life :)
