What visitors say
★★★★★“This spot works well for roller skating warm ups, trying out new tricks, practicing stops, and banking. Maybe it’s not ideal for skateboarding but works perfectly for quad skates. It’s hidden and not busy so just right if you want the park all to yourself.”
★★★★★“It would be better to call this a skate spot. It's not big enough to call it a skate park. Pictures below show the entire "park." It's super small. Decent if you wanna skate a box or a super small mini ramp.”
★★★★★“This is a skate park for ants. The rest of the park is great, but you’re better off bringing your Tech Decks to get any decent skating done. Has a nice little ledge to grind on though, and the bowl isn’t too bad. The surround areas also have some cool ledges and benches.”
★★★★★“Great warm up spot before taking the session elsewhere. This spot would be good for beginners, young kids or a nice spot to learn some new tricks before taking them somewhere bigger. Not the biggest/baddest skatepark but I’ll a skate park over no skate park so I’m grateful for…”
