We saw several deer and a fox on our last trip! Our favorite part has to be the small waterfall. We've camped here before as well, and we enjoyed our night. The bathrooms certainly aren't sparkling clean, but they are still cleaner than many I have been in at state parks! Our next goal is to spend a night in one of the cabins!

You can count on seeing very brave deer if you come at dusk. Our favorite part is the off-leash dog park. There is a TON of room for dogs to run and a variety of landscaping. It's a beautiful walk for people and pups!

Surprisingly it was somewhat busy with walkers and bikers and runners. The trail is beautiful and a mix of forest and lake as well as some surprisingly tough inclines! I noticed there were several different parking lots and at least one area to put boats in. There were plenty of restrooms along the trail which I thought was helpful too. The trails were clean as well besides a few spots of feces. My only complaint is the complete arrogance of a few cyclists, particularly of the older generation. They had zero regard for others and expected the pathway to be completely available for them despite being wide enough to accommodate opposite direction traffic.

One of the highlights is the new fully inclusive playground -- it's thoughtfully designed with ramps, wheelchair-accessible swings, and fun features for kids of all abilities, making it a great destination for families. Cyclists will appreciate the addition of air and tools for on-the-fly bike repairs, which makes stopping here even more convenient. I also love the recent trail improvements at 168th Street -- the updated sections make riding and walking around the park feel smoother and safer. Whether you're out for a spin, a stroll, or a family day, Lake Zorinsky is a must-visit outdoor escape in West Omaha!

We've been taking the boat on the lake for awhile now and I don't want to be the guy to complain…read morebut....... Well right when I get there there's cars parked all over in the Trailer parking area which makes it difficult to maneuver for us towing a long truck and boat. Then to lessen our experience even more we get to the dock to launch the boat and both of the docks are covered in dog poop. I never seen anything like that. If we're trying to follow the rules why are we walking through dog poop to visit the Lake. And lastly again not to try to upset anyone but why are people allowed to fish from the dock and slow and even hinder us boaters. It's just aggravating.

There's enough room to walk around the park for exercise, if people desire. There are benches and several trees. If your dog likes water, there is a gate to the lake next to the park which is fenced in with the fence running down to the lake. This allows your dog to go for a swim. It's a really nice park in the middle of Papillon. There is a small amount of parking (4-5 cars) and during my time there, 4 other dogs were in the park.

The best part is there's a large green space surrounding the park so if you're worried about the littles running, they have a long time before they get up the hill and to the streets.

There quite a bit of playground area with a few different pieces that keep the kids entertained for 1-1.5 hours. It does get busy so I suggest coming early. This is definitely a neighborhood mom's spot which can be fun for socializing, but not as much lately with Covid-19. They do not santize equipment so bring your redi-wipes if you do come. Love this park, and do recommend!

Plus multiple rock climbing walls, fresh food and snacks, drinks, an ice skating rink and more. It was my first time coming here and it did not disappoint. We love how cheap entry is and all the activities you can do. It's a great place to go to, especially during winter time. I'm looking forward to coming back here during spring and summer months when the water park is open. The pizza wasn't bad either! I'd totally order it again. No outside food or drinks are allowed here. There's plenty of parking outside.
