I have driven or walked past this park many times and never really stopped to look at it. It is beautiful! There are several unique sculptures along the walkways, beds of carefully planted shrubs and flowers, soft grass, and beautiful shade trees dotted throughout the park. We stopped for a while to enjoy the scenery. We watched a man fly fishing in the river...and listened to the water pass over rocks. It really was peaceful. Take some time to walk along the river during the day and check out Bicentennial Park if you haven't already.

The large hanging flower pots look gorgeous, and there is plenty of great shade to enjoy a picnic lunch. ​Unfortunately, I had to take off two stars for the restrooms, which were in terrible condition. There was no soap, and the door was broken, resulting in my 10-year-old daughter getting stuck inside! Clean, functioning restrooms are a basic essential, especially for families and travelers. I'd gladly pay a small fee to enter if it meant the facilities were properly maintained and safe. ​Beautiful park for a picnic and cooling off, but the city really needs to clean up and repair the restrooms.

It's disappointing considering the park should be able to be enjoyed by families. There is a basketball court which was in good condition. There are bathrooms at this park, however, they were locked when I was there. There are two sets of tennis courts. One is in pretty bad condition, while one is in good condition. There are a few picnic tables at the park. None of them have a gazebo to block the sun. There isn't a large grassy area to play sports on. The playground is fun and unique. The playground equipment is in good condition. There is soft padding underneath the playground. There are no swings at this park. There is a parking area to park in. Outside of the homeless people there is one other safety concern. There is a road which leads to the south end of the playground. I could easily see a car driving too fast on this road and ending up driving into the playground. I wouldn't recommend bringing your children to this park until the city kicks the homeless people out of it. Be safe out there. -Dadzone

They just don't want people driving through the subdivision to get here. So if we want to drive, it's out to the main road and three left turns. Stands to reason we always walk.

We were thinking in terms of a smaller house....until we toured RED. Our daughter and son-in-law live at Emory, and we had our sights on Emory, but Atwood (the newest and largest development at RED) was about to open around the time that we were going to be back in Reno. I met with Jenn, who became our Leasing Agent, to tour Emory and Atwood. Both are absolutely amazing and I had a difficult time deciding. I have to say that Jenn spent a lot of time with me, asking the right questions to really understand what we were looking for so that she could get us towards our perfect home. Jenn shared with me the pros and cons of all of the units we toured, taking into consideration our lifestyle and of course, our mini doxie, Poppy! I must have changed my mind 2 or 3 times on which floorplan I wanted (because they are all amazing), and Jenn was absolutely supportive throughout because she sincerely wanted us to be happy with our decision. Jenn made the process so easy because she is extremely knowledgeable about the all of the floorplans, the amentities, and the overall vibe. The application and lease signing was all done through their portal. I feel like Jenn was just as excited for us and our move-in as we were and she checks in to make sure everything is great even after move-in!! I am blown away by the AMAZING experience we've had in finding our home at RED - Atwood. The amenities are first class, and no different than any 5 star resort. We highly recommend RED, whether Basecamp, Emory, or Atwood, and we cannot thank Jenn enough for helping us find our new home!
