We recently spent an evening at Oak Ridge Park, and it was exactly what we needed. We packed some…read morefood, brought our chairs, and enjoyed live music while watching the sun begin to set. Sometimes the best date nights don't require anything fancy, just good company, fresh air, and a chance to slow down. The park is beautiful, clean, and incredibly well maintained. There are plenty of paved walking trails, wide open green spaces, and lots of room to relax, whether you're taking a stroll, having a picnic, or just enjoying the scenery. It's easy to see why so many people come here to walk, bike, run, and spend time with family and friends.

You can hardly find this park if you are driving in oak tree road ! They have multiple entry points…read more.. the back entry near Popeyes is really bad . Smells weed when you walk through that path . Good for dog walk through that path . There is also a main entrance on the other side . Parking isn't too bad . Not too big but fits most of the people visiting this ground . We actually liked the main side of the park . Nice play area .. I liked the pickle ball courts . Nicely maintained . We also saw that most of the courts were available . There are also place to camp and sit / eat with friends . Basket ball court was also well maintained ! Liked it overall except the walkway on the backside ! 4 stars !

After months of renovation, Putnam Park is finally the modern recreational space that South…read morePlainfield deserves. In addition to the repaved parking lot which was full of potholes before, there are ~4 new curbside spaces outside of the entrance. Both the entrance and exit have been designated as one-way streets in order to better facilitate vehicular traffic. Putnam now has new fitness stations on the walking path and a brand new playground set built on rubber turf. The covered pavilion which used to be on the northern side of the park has now been demolished and rebuilt closer to the middle of the park with ~6 picnic tables and ceiling fans to keep insects away and people cool. The tennis and basketball courts remain intact as they were before. The fields that were disturbed or displaced due to construction are currently being reseeded with new grass. I am overall very excited about this update and hope that other locals will appreciate it as much as I do.

Love my local park, I am hesitant to write a review because it is not crowded and a pretty well…read morekept secret ha. It is near a highway so maybe that is why people avoid it, but they have tennis, basket ball and roller rink courts. There is a nice grove of trees and a nice gazebo and fountain too. I use the tennis courts almost every weekend and they are hardly used and in decent shape. Only complaint is it could use a broom to clean leaves to be left there. There are also lights on the court at night for free and ample parking and clean bathroom facilities. Once you are done with a game you can head to wawa across the street!

Beautiful park by the water, very green and well kept. Lots of parking. Went for a nice 2 mile walkread more

This is a great park for walking or even resting on the grass with a blanket. There are gazebos and…read morebenches along the walk path and near the playground. The path isn't the best for skating, but I have used it many times paying attention to any breaks or rocks along the path. The park faces the Arthur Kill tidal straight which is a calm channel of water and makes for a decent view while visiting the park. The land is always clean, but I would avoid visiting right after a rain pour since the park sits on a wetland. Driving here for the first time can be tricky since it is tucked away a bit. To get there, it looks like you are trespassing on to the property of PSEG (but you're not), passing open gates. Instead of driving straight towards the PSEG facility, you will make a right into the park where you see the sign for Alvin P. Williams Memorial Park. Enjoy!

A free admission park for the quality of the water park from American Dream mall (smaller in size…read morethough). This is a fantastic kids place right in the heart of Edison and situated inside the ever-happening Papaianni Park. They are only open for the summer time as rightly so between Memorial Day and Labor Day and has good quality working water pipes and well maintained floor that don't reek of moss for the constant watering. The entire place is well maintained including the toilets. Every kid that was here felt belonged and whoever conceptualized and created this deserves a hike. The parking is huge and will never run out of space.

Such a great park. You have a huge open space for kids to…read morerun around and play... on this particular day, a lot of kids were out playing soccer.. Nice size playground with swings and such.. Decent amount of benches and there is a nice table under a gazebo type situation.. perfect for enjoying a lunch in the park. The best part are the trees!! I had no idea that there were many different trees planted in the park--with the added value of being able to read what kind of tree you were lucky enough to come across. I find that so dope and a great unexpected lesson in science for my LO. She found it quite interesting. And the best kept secret.. there is a butterfly park in the back of the park with seems to be a cool trail.. I was just too chicken to go since it was about dusk and no one else accompanied us. Just another reason to come back really soon!

This park is a great, safe place for families to take their kids in the surrounding neighborhood…read more Alongside the main playground area, there are water fountains, a gazebo, and seating areas below the great oak tree. There is also a cute butterfly garden adorned with colorful stones, benches, and paintings. Not much has changed since I came here as a little kid- there are still long walkways in which kids can learn how to ride their bikes, big trees to charade around, and park benches to rest on. Would highly recommend for any family or person looking for a nice place to walk and play.

Happy hump day Adventurers!!! I've been coming to this area to park and read books under the trees…read morefor years! It's right near the Dunkin so you can just grab a cup and sit at the picnic table or gazebo. Over the summer I had left a bunch of books in the awnings of it. Thought it would be like a makeshift little library, but they spruced up the park in late summer and got rid of them. Guess that was frowned upon :( I'll try again but I highly recommend leaving books in these types of spaces. It has a nice little walking path that has various bench along it. This time of year is a really great way to see the leaves changing without having to go far. There are garbages signs please throw out what you have, I see sprinklings if trash on the path. The large boulder from what I know was dug up from Green Street when they were doing the sewerlines I think. I read that is was supposedly from the Paleozoic Era. Fun fact: this is one of the top PokemonGo hotspot. When it was super popular you saw so many people just standing around and meeting up. Now not so much but it's still pretty cool.
