Mary Henley also has a playground, lunch canopies, and a cooling station with water activities for visitors. I visited tonight for a Movie Under the Stars event hosted by the City of Hemet and it was amazing! My family and I enjoyed Moana 2 as we relaxed in the cool air and freshly trimmed grass. Mary Henley has a nice view of the San Jacinto mountains and has plenty of shade. I love the trees surrounding the park! My only complaint would be the nasty bathrooms. There's a button for flushing but it didn't work! Also, bring bug spray, there's quite a few June bugs flying around!

The playground is a huge win for kids; it has a zipline, several slides, and fun climbing structures that keep them entertained for a long time. We've also been here during softball/baseball games, and it's such a fun, festive environment with families cheering and enjoying the evening. One thing I will mention is that the park could definitely use more lighting at night when games aren't happening, especially during the parts of the year when the sun sets earlier. It can get a little too dark too fast. Overall, though, it's a great park for all ages and one of our favorite local spots!

There's a huge grassy space for soccer and baseball, and a hill if you have kids that enjoy rolling down them. They also have a large gazebo with limited table-benches. Great for hosting an outdoor party and dog-friendly too (they have trash for disposing doggy poop). Perfect for picnics if you bring your own EZ-Up or outdoor chairs. Note: it gets busy when there's a game here. They have some parking spaces within the park. And more along the neighborhood streets.
