This is a true DIY treasure. Gave it a four star because the flat is a bit rough with long fissures (mostly patched but imperfect) The roughness gives it some character as well and it’s not too too rough to make it truly slow. The most significant aspect of this park after it being 100% DIY is the amount of shade. Skateparks are notoriously absent of any relief from the summer sun. This park has trees all around it blocking out afternoon summer sun almost completely. Pictures included:: There’s a nicely sized small 1/4 with a little extension on one side, a wide bank to ledge,, a low rail, a low flat three sided pad, an A frame, a bump to plywood wall and a soon to be completed banked corner. The people vibe is very chill with teens and college age kids. A note for parents, being a DIY theres No water fountain or bathroom in the area.

Visited this park with a friend and I was so impressed with the transitions and coping. This park is clearly a labor of love and it’s awesome to see the city working with and supporting local skaters. Keep it up guys this place is a gem.

Awesome park with great skaters. Has some well made quarter pipes, a round rail, a box, some banks and other unique obstacles.
