Also has lots of grass and surrounding green area so it's nice to have a picnic.

We visited this park on a Friday, midday at the end of May. It was a rainy day, and we were looking…read morefor a place to eat a picnic lunch out of the rain. While the entire Cincinnati riverfront is gorgeous, we couldn't find a place that was covered where we could eat. As we were driving by we saw this park! Parking was $5 and the park was empty except for our party. The bridge provided covering from the rain and there were many picnic tables surrounding the park. The play structure is made out of trex building material and included LOTS of elements for our kids to play. Swing set, monkey bars, climbing rope, etc. the ground is squishy. There is a good amount of noise from the cars driving over the bridge overhead, but it was a sweet spot to eat lunch and let the kids work off some steam.

Such a fun surprise of a neighborhood park!…read more This park has a large three-section play set, a basketball court, sand volleyball court, and a full picnic area with seating and grills, so it's really easy to spend a long afternoon here. There's even a disc golf course and a cute bridge that makes it feel extra scenic. The paved trail is pretty hilly, which honestly made for a great workout walk, and it's also good for bikes if you don't mind a few climbs. The absolute highlight for me was the access to the beautiful creek running through the park. There are also nice little habitat areas that would be great for bird watching. Public bathrooms are available, though they weren't the cleanest when I visited. There was some trash around, but there are plenty of trash cans, so hopefully that improves with use. It's surrounded by townhouses but open to the public and feels welcoming. Overall a great local park for families, walks, casual sports, or just relaxing by the creek.

It's so awesome! The kids love it and even adults have fun!! I do have to say there isn't much for the real little kids. It's just got one little train with a small slide and for some reason my daughter just isn't into it. But by next spring she'll be big enough for some other things and she'll be more entertained. This place also has swings, trucks to dig in a sand pit and some big slides and things to climb.

This is a great park with lots of greenspace. There's a playground with swings, a shelter, some…read morepicnic tables, and a few baseball fields. On Sundays in the summer a musician plays the carillon bells in the tower for about an hour in the afternoon. Bring some blankets, lay in the sun, and watch the clouds while you listen to the carillon. Behind the playground is a ravine and a hiking trail. Take the stairs down to the old boat house. This seems to be a popular spot to take engagement pictures and senior pictures. From there follow the trail into the woods and along the creek. It's a great place to take your kids to learn about trees, bugs, and other outdoorsy things. The trail does not go very far before the creek makes a sharp left turn and it becomes difficult to go further. We wandered around for a while trying to find the continuation of the trail, but it seems that it ends at the bend in the creek. From there you backtrack to the park. This park is within walking distance of our house, so on our way home we pass through the Mariemont square and always get some ice cream from Graeters. A great way to end any afternoon. It can be hard to find this park, but Mariemont has put a sign pointing the way in the median on Wooster Pike.

This is a really nice park. It's right along the bike trail. This makes it convenient to get to…read more Downtown Loveland gets very congested. Quicker to get around on it on two wheels. A lot of cool restaurants and shops are here. Many cater to bicyclists. They offer discounts on food and stuff. It's the centerpiece of downtown Loveland. The bathrooms are pretty clean, and there's plenty of areas for pets. A lot of convenient things if you're on a bike. If you're in a car it's harder. There's parking lots but these get filled up especially on weekends.

I love this park!! Just wish it was closer to home. I enjoy running or biking from this location…read more There are restrooms and water fountains. Also, there's a place where you can add air to your bike tires if you need it. The parking is easy if you get there early. Go about 4 miles north, and there's another restroom with water fountains. The bike trail is well maintained, and returning to the park surrounded by coffee places, restaurants, and shops makes it even better!

Unless you are comimg for the basketball courts and football field keep driving back. There are places to park near the soccer fields, baseball fields, playground and near the lake. The lake is small, yet a nice touch. Made to look at, and fish from. It's too small for boating. There is a gazebo, benches and a porch swing to relax, and enjoy the view. A peninsula juts out with picnic tables and grills. It appears to be a popular place to fish from. Fishing here is catch and release only. Improvements are happening near the lake. The multi- use trail is level and wide. It connects all the areas of the park. Topography at the park makes for an interesting walk/ride. There is everything from sunny wide open sports fields, to areas that are more wooded. Particularly near the lake. Wild blackberries (I think,) were growing in numberous locations. Several picnic shelters and benches are available throughout the park. Some of these have grills. Signs posted that no demestic animals are allowed in the park. The park is very clean.

I took an almost one-year-old baby here today. It is only street parking, but there were plenty of spots. The park has many trees, so there were spots of shade for us to rest. Many kids were playing at the park! But we played in the sand and used one of the many baby swings! This park is so much fun for kids of all ages! I brought a baby that's walking with assistance, and she had a blast! Other kids seemed to love running around and then cooling off in the splash pad. Highly recommend going here with your kiddos to get out of the house!

There are also some awesome balance equipment to try! Something else to note: This park is not well shaded in the evenings. I brought a 3 year old to the park and while she had a lot of fun, it was quite challenging for her to climb on much of the equipment. There are also only two small slides which weren't easily accessible for her. They have a few toddler swings and a handicap accessible swing that she had fun trying!
