Great playground set. Blacktop, Gravel, grass and dirt trails with pretty amazing views of the river and new calisthenics bars. Great wet park for kids. There is ever a small fishing pond. In love this park. Well maintained.

Such a fun park! Lots to do here. Splash pad for the kids (cost a couple extra bucks), walking/biking trails, great picnic and swingset areas with pavilions for shelter. I find something new every time! Definitely a fan of the Hamilton Co. Parks (buy a season pass for parking and enjoy them all!)

We visited for a Cincinnati Pops concert. The policing really made traffic flow well when we arrived and when we left. There were a variety of food trucks, (2) beer stands, and port-a-potties conveniently located. Fantastic time and atmosphere.

A wonderful part of the Hamilton Co. Park system. They have a nature center that offers programs for all ages, the water park seems pretty popular w the kids as well as the playground. There are miles of trails for folks to walk, the park is very friendly to dogs and their families too. There is also a frisbee golf course. There are several reservable shelters. There's a catch and release pond. The Rangers are friendly and helpful. You can forget ur in the city by coming out to sit or walk. You can also access Steamboat Springs park from the far end drive leading down to old US 52. The Vineyard Golf Course is just up the road on Nordyke. As well as the Cherry Grove Shopping area, w quick access to 275.

My rating is more for the water park, which is really a splash ground not sure the need for life guards but that is probably the reason it is an additional cost for kids over 2. Unfortunately didn't get to experience much else in the park or perhaps the rating will change.

Great place to take the kids, have large parties, or just to enjoy the scenery. The splash pad is great. You can easily spend a few hours here. Its partially enclosed which is great for small kids! Great place for summer fun!

A great place to walk, take your dogs, playground and water park for kids, and has a nice small nature center. The shelters are a bit further down their main road from the playground and water park but isn't too bad of a walk if you have a family get together or party at a shelter. One hiking trail has an exercise path with exercise suggestions, and the path by the playground has a nice view of the river.

Had a joint picnic with another church. We were at the Elderberry Shelter. This picnic area has a large covered seating area. It is also next to 2 sand volleyball ball courts. There are public restrooms close by (they were actually clean and not foul smelling!). There is an outdoor playground close by as well. There is a small pond as well which people were actually fishing out of. This pond would be something to be aware of if you had small children. There were also trees in our area that provided good shad on a hot and humid day. Very relaxing.

Took my daughter to the water park. Very cheap and fun for the kids. There's no pool, just sprinklers and a slide. Concession food is a little pricey, but you can pack a lunch and take a cooler in too. Plenty of tables in and out of the sun.

Too muddy. Lots of construction. $5 to get in one time for Hamilton County residents. $8 for non-resident for one time entrance. Playground equipment for Grandson was nice except long slide with Windows. Slide becomes too hot.
