Very nice park. Something for everyone in the family. Pavilion, play ground area and equipment, fenced skate board area, many paved trails, building, handicap accessibility parking and activities. Multiple pokey stops and gyms though out the park. Clean quite, family oriented. Very enjoyable!
Its so beautiful there! What a difference from the mess it used to be! Skateboard part is my favorite of course. Makes it worth the long haul to get there! The whole park is always well maintained and when kids go fishing, theyre almost guaranteed to catch several! Its great!

2022-05-01Lovely park with playgrounds, a small pond for fishing, a larger number of horseshoe pits. The park also had a great rail trail that starts in it and goes on for two or three miles, and it is a spur off of the Finger Lakes Trail. If youre looking to do a section of the trail in Hornell but dont want to be walking in from down by the Walmart this is a great choice to connect you up to the FLT.

2021-05-31Nice little park, tucked back behind businesses. There are no ball fields but there is plenty of other options like play ground, skateboard park, deck that over looks the pond and a walking trail around the pond and parallel to the train tracks. Three are also picnic tables and grills at the few pavilions at the park.. Never crowded and even when there are a lot of people its still quite easy to have your own space.

2022-01-01A beautiful half-mile paved walking trail loops around a natural pond. Four party pavilions w/ charcoal grills (reserve in advance). Great fishing on the dock or shoreside. Fenced toddler play area, playground area, and connected skate park keep kids of all ages entertained. Large greenspace for kites or soccer games. Basic soft/baseball diamond (grass) with new dugouts. Championship Horseshoe pits.Known for a steady breeze, makes it great on those hot summer days. For better or worse, the geese love it too, making for interesting encounters around dusk as they waddle around the path. A gem orphaned at the end of extended Thacher Street -- worth the extra mile!! 🌳🍁🐸🎣🚴🚶🥳🧲

2022-03-15Lots of people come to this park. Whether with their kids, dogs, or just for a walk. Be mindful of the geese. They tend to hiss and bite
