This is a small greenbelt park of about five acres, dominated by a pond. Swimming isn't allowed, but there is nothing to indicate that fishing is unwelcome. There are ducks here, and they're smart enough to shy away from people, so give them some space. There is some shade, not difficult to seek out, and a concrete walking/jogging path circles the pond, with a loop off to the southwest for those who'd like to put in a few more steps. Amenities include a drinking fountain, picnic tables, benches, and a very unique Little Free Library that was designed around a discarded Mustang bumper. As the park was designed for relaxation, the most excitement one can have is on a two person swing. The picnic tables and benches make it a nice place for those who work nearby to come to take a break or even have lunch.
Coordinates are taken from the Little Free Library at the north end of the park. There are a few places to park there, and while there is a larger lot at the east end of the park, please be certain to respect any signs with restrictions.
