Location was centrally located. Parking was easy to find. The park was clean. The Rose Garden was beautiful. I really enjoyed looking at all the different colors of roses. A must see!
Nice large park. Only issue is the amount of geese poop. It’s insane. Completely covers massive areas. More frequent cleaning of a small street cleaner would be nice.
I used to go to this park 40+years ago as a child to swim and play at the park. Such an awesome trip down memory lane. The pool was amazing and it had a fun vibe and atmosphere. The playground has a different set up, geared more towards safety which is nice. The pond and surrounding area has nice places to sit and relax watch the geese in the sun and out the sun. Nice bathrooms as well.
I absolutely love McKinley park! It's a huge park full of different areas for anyone! The park includes a tennis court, covered benches/tables, uncovered benches/tables, lots of grass area, a soccer area (no nets), giant pond home to the ducks and geese, big beautiful trees, a public pool, playground, and the library. The park has a trail around the perimeter for jogging, walking, or running, there's parking all around the park as well. The park is so beautiful as is and when the rose garden is in bloom it is incredible. The roses are so gorgeous and people always come to take grad photos, prom photos, quinceañera photos etc.. This park is perfect for spending time reading in the shade, gathering with friends, letting your kids run around or whatever! My friends and I love gathering here for picnics and book club and we always are able to find a spot in the grass under the big trees.Definitely check this park out!
