We had a memorial for my aunt Debbie here with all the family there. When my grandma was still alive we would have family picnics out there all the time. It was a peaceful place with good memories. We rented the gazebo on top of the hill.

This was a beautiful park with so much to do! Great for the whole family. Tons of open green space, attractive landscaping, neat playgrounds, mini golf, and even a large swimming pool with a water slide! They even have an indoor pavillion where you can order lunch from a cafeteria. All in all, it's a visit that is well worth the time for anyone.

The lifeguards at the pool this year are very young & immature. They're only there to get paid. When we were there it happened to rain & they waited an hour an a half to close 8 minutes before normal close time. The lifeguards ran around in the no running area pushing each other in the pool while we waited for them to reopen from the rain. The acted worse then the children they were blowing their whistles at & the manager let them get away with it all & stood there.The kids swimming got in trouble for the same things the lifeguards were doing & the lifeguards are suppose to be setting a good example for these kids but definitely weren't in anyway. Also got overcharged a hwfty penny for the Summer discount event they have going on after 5 & when I mentioned it they didn't even do anything to fix it. Won't be going back to this pool until they get adult lifeguards who value the lives of children not the amount of their paycheck.

Family memories every Christmas Eve at the skating rink. Love the decades of togetherness from swimming, water slide, paddle boots, putt putt and of course the playground. It is unfortunate the 3 meter diving board is gone as it truly was a "right of passage" as a child.

This was always a favorite of mine when I was in grade school. We would have our end of the year picnic at Wheeling Park and every time I visit as an adult, it brings back great memories. There are several areas for picnics and/or parties. There are also areas for kids to play (playgrounds). It has been a while since I was in the White Palace, but I used to love the arcade. I can t imagine it is still there.

Went to the pool, it was great.The slide is really fun, the pool is a nice size and it has diving boards. We also played mini golf it wasnt anything amazing but it is a fun mini golf course. There are also paddle boat rides at the little pond. The only problem I had with the park was the concession stand at the pool didnt have enough options for food. Other than that it was fun and would reccomend it.
