Enjoyed a great Sunday in the park, and we spent almost 3 hours on the free adventure program. (Need to be there before 1pm to register for this Sunday program). There are plenty of BBQ, picnic areas, and places for kids to run around.

Walking around the lake is another activity that we look forward to. The pathway is well-maintained and offers great views of the water, and it's just the right distance for a family outing.

My kids particularly enjoy the creek area. It's a safe and engaging space for them to explore and get a little wet, under supervision of course. They love skipping stones, and just enjoying the simple pleasures that a creek can offer to young adventurers.

during the fall season. The foliage surrounding the lake transforms into an explosion of color, making it the perfect backdrop for some stunning photos and peaceful walks. It's such a serene environment to reconnect with nature.

Took a walk there on a Sunday morning. Park is relatively clean. The way to hiking is not that hard to walk. The playground is spacious. Restrooms are ok. The park is dog friendly. The place is also great for family picnic.

Great park with lots of BBQ areas for
You to bring your own bbq equipment. I recommend this park. However, I love lakes so Oakland lake is nice too

We had our High school AJ Day there and the park was clean and we had a blast.

What an amazing place to go for a walk. If you walk through the woods, you would hear sounds of birds chirping. Absolutely amazing in the summer and fall. Summer is full of green trees and in the fall, fall foliage is really amazing as well. Highly recommended 10/10

My daughter gives this place a 10/10. We went for a school trip and I had low expectations. It was a rainy morning but their center is indoors where they have animals for the kids to see and touch. They give great information about animals and their environment. The staff were very nice to the children and answered all questions these kids threw their way. They were patient and kind.

They take you on a short walk where you mostly see squirrels and birds. I like how our guide Erica lifted up a log to show the kids mushrooms and insects that lived underneath.

It was a cool experience .

Best park in Queens. Has everything from tennis courts to bike trails and even an adventure course. Nice BBQ area by Springfield Blvd. The paths here are scenic and they connect to Cunningham park as well. Personally like the Douglaston side of the park better but the whole area is great for getting fresh air and taking in nature
