BARFIELD CRESCENT PARK REVIEWS

Great park and playground. Always clean. We enjoy walking the trail to the river, bring the dogs with us sometimes. The front parking lot is a nice space to go to watch things in the sky bc of the open area. We watched the eclipse there. We have rented pavilions here and have had good experiences. The wilderness station is amazing. Fantastic employees here, very kind and good with kids and animals.

So this was an unexpectedly amazing place! I've only been a few times, but it's a great place for little adventures and as a photographer, there's always something awesome captured while exploring. Just try not to fall into an unexcapable pit.

I ran the Marshall Knob Trail. I guess more walked, jogged, ran. Great trail. A lot of rocks in the beginning of you start to the left. Once you're past the big rocks, you can run.

MCKNIGHT PARK REVIEWS

I like taking my grandkids to this park, when they come and visit. And I like the fact that the ground is padded, so they can't hurt themselves. The park has a fake dog sitting on the bench, the little one was afraid at first, but he built up his courage.

I can't believe this is a public park. We are retired California transplants to be close to the grandbabies and this park is amazing. It is so well laid out and endless stimulating play areas. From slides to musical instruments and kid sized ziplines. Things that spin and tons of things to climb. What a treasure and its FREE.

This playarea is pretty spacious and relatively new one. The slides are pretty interesting for kids of all ages. The number of slides are also more. The area has at least 10 benches for accompanying parents to rest and keep a watch out for their kids.

CASON TRAILHEAD REVIEWS

Love walking here with my family. Quiet and peaceful. Listening to the sounds of Stones River as we walk the trail or sit and relax. Kids love spending time at the play area, and we frequent the dog park to get our pooches some social time. Always clean and well maintained. Definitely, recommend a stop by to experience it.

A very peaceful place to go for a walk! Only thing I'd change maybe add a few swings other than that it was a great little park.
