Three playgrounds, ponds full of ducks and geese, wide flat walkways that take strollers easily, shade, benches and barbecue grills. Reviewers call the restrooms clean. Two catches: the entrance is awkward to find from the main road, and there is one lot that reviewers say is undersized.
Three little lakes named for the Apollo 11 astronauts, with playgrounds and shaded picnic spots — a genuine green oasis and reliable family fishing outing.

Pros: Peaceful, beautiful park. Lots of wide walkways with plenty of room for assistive devices (wheelchairs, walkers, etc.) and bicycles. A huge variety of waterfowl to view up close. Be sure to not feed them bread, though. Try chopped lettuce, oats, peas, corn, and birdseed. Multiple playgrounds, bathrooms, picnic areas, seating, shaded areas, and tons of grass. Dog-friendly for leashed dogs. Cons: Very inaccessible park entrance from the main streets, causing great difficulty if you're unfamiliar with the area. For such an expansive park the parking lot isn't large enough, especially spaces for disabled parking. And, there's only 1 lot. Docks are fenced off due to ice, but the temps at this time of year range from 70s to 90s in the day, and 50s to 60s at night. Not enough to freeze, so I'm not sure how long the dock closure will last or how long it's been closed. The Apollo capsule is no longer there.
