The park has a one-mike paved walking trail, pickle ball and tennis courts, a soccer field, pavillions and more. A nice patk in a quiet residential area of NKC.

2 great playgrounds - one more "old fashioned" like I grew up with (swings, slides, climbing equipment all separate) and one more modern all-in-one area. Our grandkids, ages 4, 8, and 13, had fun at both. I want to go back and use the fitness walk! Baseball, tennis, pickle ball, and picnic facilities are available. The restrooms were amazingly clean and NOT stinky!

My granddaughter had her graduation party there Sunday. It was beyond Fantastic!! The maintenance lady stopped by on her cart to check and see if we needed anything and one was always nearby, so our entire party felt very comfortable. It's an absolutely Beautiful park, very well maintained and user friendly for my 91 year old father who uses a walker to get around. Thank you for a lovely gathering and taking such pride in your park. I wish I could give you 10 stars. Absolutely fabulous!!

First ball field I've been to that has a solid black, low wall around the home plate area. Dugout to dugout.
Can't use my bag chair. Bleachers only.
But very nice field.

Two separate playgrounds a jogging/running trail a mile long. Public restrooms marked as gender neutral restrooms. Tennis court, and exercise equipment around the trail. Everyone you meet is so friendly. This community is lovely.

My wife walks this park every morning before work and it has become a crucial start to her day.
I was lucky enough to visit a couple weeks ago and I can see why this place is so special. It's clearly cared for by the city who use their budget to maintain and upkeep this beautiful place. While I only walked around the track, I could see there were plenty of things to do and space to do it in with friends and family.
Beautiful park!

Nice park with lots of different activity options like tennis courts and baseball fields. We enjoy the playground off Howell St. because it's one of the few parks I've found with 4 baby swings side-by-side so all the little ones can swing together on playdates. Also has a great walking trail that runs the perimeter of the park.

Very nice park clean of debris tennis 🎾 courts and pickle ball courts. Great walking trail and baseball and softball field close to the police department and monitored regularly. Safe place for kids to play

I love this park. Whether I'm with little ones or the teenagers. I like running the track at night. It's very well lit up and there's always people there. The track is a mile long which is perfect and also has workout stations. There are two playgrounds, baseball fields, tennis courts and handball. There are several picnic areas and convenient restrooms. There's always something going on there. They also have the Bird scooters now which I think are really cool. Definitely my favorite park to go to. I've been going to Macken Park since I was little girl. I'm glad my children have also been able to enjoy it.
