Just a fantastic, peaceful gathering space and I'm so glad the city had the foresight to build this park and not just add more rows of houses. I have many fond memories of moseying down here with my daughter when she was a baby through about age 4 -- perfect playground for that age. Also my buddy Scout, my dog of nine years and I have been here with wind chills of -20, and on summer days in the 100's. There are so many friendly people and we sort of band together with our pups on the coldest days. We found community here with an organic, casual dog meet up group.. I still miss it, my new neighborhood doesn't have the same energy. You'll find it packed on snow days with sledders dominating the perfect sledding hill. Those first real warm spring days give way to people playing baseball, throwing frisbees and cooking out. My only knocks are that there needs to be better crosswalks around here. Cars really fly through this area, unfortunately, and the city could take some better precautions. Additionally there's no bathroom. Funny how when I lived a five minute walk from here I didn't mind, but now when we visit and there's nowhere to go, it's definitely more noticeable. Anywho, it's a true gem for this dense neighborhood.

There was also a nice, well-maintained, play area with swings, two park benches, a picnic table, a loving memorial to Austin Riggs Fugate (1991-1995), and a few, small, open, grassy areas. I liked the tall, wooded canopies, and the many bird songs. There was only the distant sound of street traffic in a few areas, with no dedicated parking. Overall, very nice!

A 66 acre park, everything you can imagine is here. Many different trails, LOTS of open fields, 2 or 3 different play grounds for kids, a water park area with pools and slides, soccer fields and many soccer goals, 2 basketball courts, pickleball, tennis, you name it they probably have it. Extremely well taken care of and felt very safe walking around at dusk even on the trails with just my dog. The dog parks were HUGE, and everything was very clean and NEW. Just a beautiful area we were happy to have stumbled upon by accident. Great if you're roadtripping and need to get some exercise or wear out your kids and dog!

I rode my bike out here on one of the warmest days of the spring and it's always a nice destination. There are tons of trails connecting through it that are best suited for walkers/joggers. Cyclists can ride on them, but they're twisty and full of people, so I'd recommend sticking to the roads more than these on the bike. There are soccer fields, a dog park (with it's own Yelp page), a pool, and it's right in the middle of Leawood and easily accessible off 435. Really glad the city had the foresight to design such a big amenity for Johnson County. If you're a dog owner, there are portions where you can get down to the creek if your doggo needs a quick swim. Granted there are leash laws, but if you have a dog that you can recall well, I say go for it. It's really a nice park overall and perfect for those needing a dosage of sunshine and nature right now.

At 304 acres, Kessler Park is a the prominent park in the historic Northeast area of Kansas City…read more The park was opened in 1895 and has several key attractions that date back to the beginning of the KC's world class parks and boulevards system. The architect of that renown "City Beautiful" movement was none other than George Kessler, although the park was named for him many years after opening. The top attraction is Cliff Drive, although it is no longer accessible by vehicle. Due to trash dumping and late night crime, the beautiful drive with cliffs, waterfalls and lush greenery can only be accessed by foot or bike. The frisbee golf course looked pretty neglected on my drive thru also. The key components that are very well maintained is The Concourse; a subset park located in Kessler. The Colonnade is a century old stone pavilion and outlook with ornate and classic design features; an iconic KC landmark. Across the street is a large majestic fountain that allows fun and frolic for children and a large well maintained playground with large hillside slides. A park that all metro residents owe it to themselves to visit, although it has seen better days.
