We had a great time visiting this park. It's broken down into 3 parts. A mellow area with various small ramps/obstacles, a main large bowl ranging from 4 to 10? Ft. Then a second traditional swimming pool bowl. We went on a Saturday morning and the staff and skaters were all very nice. I tried to take pictures that show the layout, it's a ton of fun here. Costs 5 (not bmx) or 7 (BMX) dollars. Waiver and helmet for under 18 required.

Rats in the vending machine. The downside to my experience was a couple of soda machines that do not work. You will lose your money on them and the office will not pay you back. It has probably been that way for a while because a RATS made the blue machine their home. We saw it make its way across a couple of unlabeled window selections. It wasn't a little thing either. It's body was 7 inches plus the tail. That is my only complaint about the park. They said they were going to put a warning label on the machines. but they never did in the two remaining hours we were there.. I'll post an image of the machines. If they haven't been changed, don't use them. If not for that I would have given this place five stars.

I would give 0 stars if I could. I got off late from work on Saturday night 2/23/25. I saw that this skate park was open until 11p.m and I wanted to decompress by practicing to skate......it was around 8 or 9 p.m when I arrived. There were about 7 people in the office. when I inquired about the skate park the attendant gave me a waiver form....the only thing I put on it was my name and phone number. the waiver was not filled out properly and no one cared. The attendant would not even look at my ID when I tried to hand it to them. That should have been my first noticable red flag. I brushed it off and sat down to lace up my skates. The music was at a reasonable volume and the atmosphere seemed nice. But everytime I looked up, every single person in that office was staring at me. I ignored it. I assumed it was because I was new to the park. I put some headphones on to watch some beginner videos before starting. Then they started to play screamo rock music. I didn't really think anything of it. But the people in the office would not stop glaring at me. I got my skates on and tried to warm up a little but I couldn't shake the uncomfortable feeling of them glaring at me. I gave them a thumbs up before rushing to get my skates off. The music kept getting louder and louder. I stood up and looked around and I was being watched from behind also by 2 guys from what i could see. Something in my gut told me to get the hell out of there. My gut was right. As soon as I opened the door to their office 6 of the people that were glaring at me literally RAN into the back room of the office leaving only one peerson up front. I didn't bother uttering a single word. I basically ran out of there with my sandals hanging off my feet. As I got closer to my car, I could hear them continuing to turn the screamo music up even louder. It was an aweful experience and a terrible feeling to have. Needless to say, they can keep that measly $5. It's sad that the reason I went there was to practice skating in a safe and well lit enviorment. While it was well lit, it was definitely NOT safe. Saturday night was my first and my last time stepping foot in there. Please Please Please stay safe.
