It's usually pretty busy with other people walking the perimeter as well as over by the playground, pickleball courts and tennis courts and Rockwell brewery. They often host events on weekends and bike races etc. I love the convince of the park in the city. My dog also loves Francis park ! There are also racquetball and handball courts as well. A basketball court is next to some open fields and there is also a lovely pond you can walk around. They light up the big fir tree next to the pond at Christmas and in the summer there is art in the park! Overall, an awesome spot.

The few times I have needed to use bathrooms here, they have always been clean and easy to use. What I mean by that, they were not stinky and they don't have strange technology that you cannot figure out just to wash your hands. There is plenty of shade if that's what you desire, there are a few benches & tables outside of the busy area, there is food/snacks/drinks if that's what you are looking for also. Summer of 2025, every Thursday there is a market/vendor fair. They have been doing this the last 3 years that I have lived in the area, I hope to catch it soon this year. I have gone out of my way to spend time here, and I'm sure that will not end.

Small park to enjoy the little things…read more This park is extremely well maintained. The tennis and basketball courts look fresh and a new bed of wood chips were added to the children's playground. On the playground littles as young as 1 year old can enjoy a number of different kinds of equipment. They do have a baby and disability friendly swing available. However the entrance into the playground is NOT DISABILITY FRIENDLY. There is a short walking trail but beware of geese and their poo. I saw folks doing some leisurely fishing but not sure on those guidelines. The restrooms were interesting but I was surprised they were less maintained compared to the rest of the park. Dogs are welcome while on leash or on duty as service dogs.

Our dog loves this park! It's easy to walk to if you live in a nearby neighborhood, as it's located…read moreat a stoplight with a crosswalk. However, if you're driving, there is plenty of parking. They have a little pond that people can fish in, and there are lots of ducks swimming and walking around. They have a playground and a basketball court, which both seem well-kept. There's also a pavilion but I haven't used it so I'm not sure what amenities it has. There's a path around the pond, and while it's a very short loop, it's good for a slow, peaceful wander. There are benches around the path and next to the park under some trees. I'd recommend checking it out if you're looking for a small, chill, clean, quiet park.

They also have outdoor workout equipment for people to use as well (when there aren't kids trying to play on it). Leashed dogs are allowed as well. The only negative is that the bathrooms are not always open on the weekends.

The shelter provided the perfect space and we were able to move the food tables underneath with enough space for the guests to eat and play games. Queeny is her favorite park so being able to incorporate it into her shower made her so so happy! There's plenty of parking and such a lovely high view of the overall park for a great backdrop for pictures. The best way to get to this spot is through the entrance from Weidman. A lot of us guests got lost by the many entrances and had to circle around and were afraid we would be too late but it all worked out! Would be great to have some signage at other entrances to say where to go to get to certain parts of the park.

Best park in STL contender!…read more This park has it all! Spacious. Clean. Maintained. Beautiful. Accessible. The best add to this park is the Teddy and Friends accessibility friendly kid playground. The playground is vibrantly colored, soft padding for the grounds, accessible swings and other equipment. There are even musical elements of the space. Close by the park is their community center that has family friendly restrooms and diaper stations. Dogs are allowed in the park areas but not inside the center. The walking trails are very long so make sure you have enough time to explore. The trails are so wheelchair friendly but I recommend only skilled wheelchair users do the trails alone as there can be natural debris or elevation obstacles.
