Main St. while the newer 26 acre West park is entered from N. Broadway. My family reserved the shelter in the West park yesterday for a celebration and it served us well. The shelter is surrounded by a large modern playground with fitness equipment and a zipline. The large park also contains an 18 hole disc golf course, a 3/4 mile walking path encircling a large pond with marshes and a running stream. A great addition to the Northland Parks. Nice job Gladstone!

I was most recently here for the Parkville Microbrew Festival but I've been here numerous times. I…read moremost often come for the off leash dog park. They have it divided into small and large dog with lots of open space and even a water pump when the weather is warm. They always have plenty of parking and there's portable toilets throughout the park. I also enjoy the trail that runs along the river. It's paved, pretty flat, and maybe 3 ish miles so it's great for everyone. They have a few other trails that are less paved and go through more of the wooded area if you want a little more ruggedness. They also have playgrounds and shelters. Plus they do various festivals and activities throughout the year. Definitely stop by and bring a pup!

This is by far my favorite park i've ever been to. over the years, they have updated this park and…read moremade it more community friendly! If you go on a warm day, the park will be flooded with families, dogs, and members of the community. It is always a bright and fun place to be. They have a pickleball court, a huge playground, volleyball court, a long and short trail, water views, baseball area, open grass area, bathrooms, and lots of parking. what more could you ask for?? One of my favorite things to do at this park is sit under the trees with my boyfriend and have a picnic. This park offers many shaded areas as well. After being at the park, it is within walking distance of park university and many restaurants/coffee shops, and shopping areas. All around, it is worth a drive to visit!! This is a good solo park or family park,

A nice course tucked away behind the football field at Missouri Western State University. The front…read morenine are mostly short par threes, with plenty of trees to get in your way and a few fairways crisscrossing one another. So be patient if there are multiple groups out chucking some disc. However, the course really opens up on the back nine, located on the other side of the ravine. Not many technical shots are required on holes 10 through 18, as obstacles are few and far between. But you can really rip your drives and expect a longish upshot to the basket. Not a bad course at all, even though the holes get monotonous. Note that you'll get in between three and four miles of walking before you're done, which ain't a bad workout at all.

It used to be open for…read morescenic drives, but now it's blocked off to vehicles and has transformed into a stunning stretch for biking, jogging, running, or dog walking. If you know where to look, there are numerous off-road walking trails through the trees and brush. During the Christmas season, they reopen it for a drive-through Christmas lights exhibit. Personally, I find it nostalgic and beautiful, maybe even romantic, to walk through the fall or winter evening with a friend. It offers some of the most fantastic views in Kansas City. My favorite spot is to sneak to the top of the water fountain and light up a blunt!

This park is pretty nifty, and is larger than you would think! Sweet place to hang out with friends!read more
