With several entry points including one right behind the Varley Art Gallery, this pond is located just off of the Main Street making it a great way to end or start your visit at Main Street Unionville. I highly recommend the Toogood Pond Trail during any time of the year! Dont miss it if you are in the area.

So many wonderful features here: -free parking in two lots (that would NEVER happen in Vancouver) -a walk around the pond involves a flat trail, one foot bridge, and one stretch of boardwalk through a marshy patch -you never know what wild birds you might see and/or hear here (we saw a heron in the pond, and I heard the call of loons! For real!) -there is a lovely canopy of trees over the walking trail (which was very welcome, on the hot day I visited), and plenty of benches to relax along the way -there are areas of grassy meadow lands on small hills in areas by the walking trail, perfect for a picnic or throwing a frisbee on a nice day -my Toronto friend says sometimes she's seen people fishing in the pond! What a great, little oasis right in the city!

So many joyful memories as a child and glad I'm able to also create new memories with my family here. It's a park so don't expect it to be clean but it's atleast cleaner than most parks I have seen.

Ah yes. This place…read more To the north, you have three soccer fields, two tennis courts, a playground, a running track, a gazebo, and a water park. The water park is really lackluster, no one uses it. The gazebo is regularly occupied in the morning by Asian grannies doing tai chi. A sight to behold. The south has a baseball field, a larger playground, a skatepark, a basketball court, two more tennis courts, and another soccer field. This half is often bustling with activity, especially in the summer. The place looks right proper and is well-maintained by the staff. The pond is a nice touch that is surrounded by the verdant fields. If you haven't come to this place for a little walk, give it a try. Just look out for the geese.

Some sand pits and decent size playground structure with a few slides, a see saw, and swing set. There are some benches under a semi covered roof.

There is a very small beach - Sunset Beach where you can launch your watercraft. Don't advise swimming in the lake - probably high bacterial counts. There's a nice trail and boardwalk close to the beach and some picnic areas a bit higher up along with a splash pad. Plenty of parking - free if Richmond Hill resident with pass. Others have to pay. Gets very busy on Summer weekends.

It doesn't have a lot of parking spaces and if you arrive early, you will be lucky to find an empty spot. Even then, you have to pay at least an hour parking fee to park there; which I believe maybe 1/2 hour would be enough for a small park. There is a paved walkway along the waterfront and you can enjoy the nice scenery during your walks. You also can use the designated area to load your canoe, or you can go to the canoe club and rent one. The washrooms are now closed due to COVID-19 pandemic.

Instead there is a small slide for toddler use in the corner. For a large space, could feature a few more additions. A few swings and hammocks but has a really neat splash pad my kids enjoyed! Nice that they include an open air roof top (for parents I'm assuming to sit and watch the kids in the splashed as they could play there for hours). Basketball court and soccer field nearby. Parking was a breeze.

It seems to a pretty new park as many of the trees are still pretty young. Visually, I really appreciate the design, but on a practical level, the park is very exposed. It would be great if they added more shade elements and/or covered seating. I think as the park ages and the surrounding tree grow, this park will only get better.

I grew up visiting the park pretty often (attending summer camps and some of the classes offer…read morethroughout the year). I was always able to take public transit there or get my parents to drive me. It's a large park to have a stroll, picnic or to play in the playground. It was a lot of fun being there. I would be surprised and forget how big it was just cause I didn't always have the opportunity to explore the park. Also, I remember a time where people were able to fly kites till it was banned. I don't know if they still do fireworks. For a time, the park would arrange fireworks on Canada Day and a lot of people would attend. During events like this, people would park at the Alton Towers plaza, walked or transit there because parking was limited. Local high school students would do their volunteer hours at the community center on the park. I think they need to apply online through the main city website (if memory serves me correctly).

There are playgrounds, water park and grass area. We could complete a survey, then have some activities pass. It was valid until next year. The water park was so much fun for kids in summer.

As to why it is called "Red Park", the only thing I can think of is that they hold the annual Strawberry Festival there, during the Canada Day long weekend. I was at that festival in 2022. The neighbouring streets were closed each time I've been there, but I've only been there twice, so don't take my work for it. There is no free WiFi. It is not wheelchair accessible. There are no washrooms. There is free neighbourhood street parking and a free parking lot nearby. Review 2023-201

It would be nice for an afternoon of quiet board game time outdoors.
