Love this park! Great for dropping the boat off for the day or simply having a picnic with the family and having a day of fishing. Great playground for the kids to play on with basketball courts

Great place to relax after work, lots of birds. Be careful if you go fishing and have an open bucket of live bait. The birds there know how to open the lids to 5gal buckets and will rob you of your 12” mullet!
