Langan Park (Municipal Park), is a 720-acre park in Mobile, Alabama, where Springhill Ave. ends and…read moreZeigler Blvd. Begins. The park offers numerous recreational activities, such as disc golf, playgrounds, picnic areas, and walking trails. It encompasses the Mobile Museum of Art, Mobile Botanical Gardens, and Playhouse in the Park. In addition, the park features tennis courts (the Mobile Tennis Center), and athletic fields for baseball and softball. Langan Park is also a popular spot for outdoor concerts and family outings. Many of the trees are labeled by genus and species. Plus, there is a large body of water that harbors the natural habitat for many birds, insects and other aquatic life. The 2.5 mile diameter sidewalk in the park is perfect for walking or running; though, It is not good for rollerskating in-line skating or skateboarding. Mostly because the mandatory crevices in the sidewalk are too wide (in some places) for the small wheels to navigate them safely. Seemingly, The maintenance crew does not keep the sidewalk very clear from debris. This could seriously injure a skateboarder or roller skater. It (a nasty fall from debris on the sidewalk) has happened to me twice already in the last six months. Minus 1 star for maintenance. Otherwise I completely enjoy walking in the park

This park has a lot. Always clean, litter free, pet friendly, great for kids, families, couples, etc. Tons of wildlife: ducks, geese, fish, turtles, rabbits, squirrels, an occasional alligator sighting in the lake areas (warm weather usually). Every time I come here, I always find something cool or new that keeps me coming back. Safe, there is a police station and military reserve located in the park near the museum. Directly across Ziegler Blvd from Mobile Japanese Gardens.

We saw a bull shark, three dolphins, and an alligator sunning himself by the waters edge a little further away. The pelicans seem kind of aggressive, so just be careful. Huge fish everywhere in the water! Nice areas to BBQ and picnic, but I saw no grills, so you will have to bring your own. The restrooms are closed, but there are two port-a-potties in an enclosure in the middle of the marina parking area.

Lavretta Park is more of a neighborhood park than a destination park. They have a nice play area…read moreand a decent walking path. I enjoyed my time at this park and it was a nice place to wind down after a long work day. I am sure that the neighborhood residents enjoy this park and many great memories will be forged here. We as a part of a community need parks. A place where we can gather together in rest and recreation. A place we can get together and just forget the stress of the world's grind.

The only thing this park has are walking trails and a single shaded pavilion, no lights, electrical access, tables. Park is ran by Chickasaw Housing Authority, park is surrounded by brick apartment homes with limited decorating or personality. Permit parking only. I saw a lot of wildlife like owls, squirrels, and birds. This is one of the most oppressive and depressing parks I have visited in Mobile County. My suggestion is to bypass this park, visit other nearby parks instead. Saraland is nearby and has many nice parks. I hope that something is done to improve this park, it's just sad because I like Chickasaw. It is a nice, clean, quiet area. I just do not like this park at all.
