We especially had fun making music but I can see how that might get loud and a little more difficult if the park is crowded. We were fortunate enough to have the playground to ourselves but my sense is that is not usually the case. The park also has a nice pavilion with picnic tables, athletic fields, basketball courts and bathrooms.

Roosevelt Park is a quite nice park tucked away in a residential section of Glenview. Its best…read morefeature for us, currently anyway, is it has a big open and well manicured field that can accommodate 4 full youth softball fields. The park is surrounded by residential streets and except for a small parking lot near the swimming pool, it's all otherwise street parking for visitors, so it can get crowded if you're not a slight bit early for an event. They do also have a swimming pool as mentioned, 3 tennis courts, and a field house. Great asset for Glenview families and activities!

Pretty decent neighborhood park not too far off of Willow Road. Emphasis on "neighborhood" park as…read morethere is no designated parking lot for this park; you'll have to hop on a residential side street and park your car there, and walk across the street. Greenview Park has a small little playground, swings, a few outdoor exercise equipment, like a rower and leg press. There's also a half-court basketball court, a small little field, and a small walking trail. Not too bad, if you're in the area and looking for a secluded park to hangout with the family and enjoy the fresh air.

They actually have 2 pickle courts and 1 tennis court that's capable of playing pickle with the pickle ball lines in them. There's also available basketball court and some benches for picknickers. Most people (I say most) have been respectful of the court availability and are courteous to each other. We probably ran into only 1 Karen and let's hope that was a rarity around here.

I liked that they had a section that was more toddler-focused, which is great for my kiddo so she doesn't get too ambitious for her age right now. It's right next door to Franklin Elementary, so there's another playground that might be accessible if you come here as well. What might make this park better in my estimation is if the playground were fenced in. It's can be easy for a little kid to take off like a shot! For that reason, it's not my top park in the area, but I'd return to it if our friends wanted to visit. But there's lots of street parking.

There are multiple walking trails that are perfect for getting some exercise or just enjoying a relaxing walk, and it's conveniently located near plenty of stores if you need to grab something before or after your visit. The park has something for everyone, including baseball fields, basketball courts, volleyball courts, soccer fields, and two playgrounds for kids. There's also a nice pavilion with restrooms, making it a great place for family gatherings, picnics, or spending the afternoon outside. Everything was clean and well maintained, and there was plenty of space to spread out without feeling crowded. Whether you're looking to play sports, go for a walk, or simply enjoy a nice park, Deerpath Park is a fantastic place to visit. I'll definitely be coming back.

A somewhat-hidden gem of a park, Keller Park is tucked away behind several homes on Pine St., and…read moreoffers several nice amenities. McLean Rohn Playground is on the south end of the park, near the Laurel Ave. entrance. It features a nice assortment of playground equipment for kids of all ages, and plenty of places to sit and supervise. There is plenty of open grounds to play upon, and all of the grass is well maintained. Along much of the length is a small disc golf course, which parallels the paved path, and continues over the river into Shepard Park. The small steel bridge that connects the two parks, over the river, has some nice views of the wildflowers and plants on the bank of the river. On a nice still day, the lull of the babbling water is very soothing. Because it's so close to several schools and day care centers, there are often lots of kids playing there during the daytime; if you plan of a round of disc golf, avoid times when the schools are getting out in the afternoon. Parking is limited at the various entrances, but you can park at Shepard Park, and cross the bridge over. The bathrooms are also at Shepherd park.

There are entrances in each of these neighborhoods, though the best would be in the Briarwood Vista neighborhood along Greenbriar Drive, east of Eastwood Drive. If it's not busy, I've been able to park in the Moriah Congregation lot, which butts up with the lined outdoor tennis courts and full size basketball court. I can't tell if the lot is park district, or Moriah, but I've never seen any parking restriction signs. Paths wind around and through the park, connecting the various amenities. Additional features include playgrounds, soccer fields, picnic areas, a baseball / softball diamond, biking / riding paths, and several nature areas. The entire park drains well, as much of runs along and drains into the river branch. Only in driving rain have I seen water pooling in the field, or off the trails. The trails all manage to stay pretty dry, throughout the year. In the winter - weather permitting - the Deerfield Park District has set up a medium-sized ice skating rink over the soccer fields. All of the Shana Ellman playground equipment and Briarwood sports amenities were renovated between 2017 and 2019, so it's all in great condition. If you follow the paths to the north, and cross Carriage Way (Kings Cove / Carlisle neighborhood), it connects with the awesome playground and nature trails in the Trail Tree park. Most of the park is wooded, and relatively serene despite being in between three relatively big residential subdivisions of Highland Park and Deerfield. It's big enough that you can find some privacy, and get far enough from the occasional droning of landscaping in the spring and summer time. In the winter, I mostly ever see folks snowshoeing or skiing through the trails, and the occasional groups of kids playing the southern fields. While it keeps fairly dry, and I think the park district occasionally sprays the area, I recommend bringing mosquito repellent through most of the warmer months. They're just about the only thing I'm not fond of in Briarwood Park.
