Part of the Cameron Park, this place is awesome. You got a covered area that can be rented and it comes with public restrooms. Several play things will keep the kids entertained and the trail heads just behind it will keep all busy. Lovely place, clean and beautiful.

Clean restroom facility and cute playground!! Water fountain currently doesn't work well enough to drink from. A lot of tables and potential "stage" areas. We are planning on having a concert there and I wish the tables weren't bolted down, that way we could just set up chairs. I understand why they are bolted down though. Nothing nice "sticks" around/: I for real thought the mist station was a "splash pad" when I first saw it. Hikers and cyclists benefit from the mist to cool down. The electrical outlets are in the columns; playground side.

The views over the river were nice. There is a playground in the park just a short walk from the view. There were a couple places to picnic around the river. There were quite a few hiking trails around that one could go explore. Not much elevation gain around for a hike that is too hard through.
