Visitors appreciate its peaceful atmosphere, often calling it a 'secret park,' making it a perfect, serene escape for families and individuals alike.
"A friendly small park in Osgood neighborhood. Playground for kids, prairie wildflowers such as woodland sunflowers, grasses and milkweed. But dodge the thistle and ragweed. One business expertly constructed a small prairie with a variety of grasses. Beautiful. Newly named Veterans Park this year."
Joseph Gerwood
"Small but mighty. It's a small park, but the best is it's not crawling with kids after school and it gives the little kids room to play, without having to compete. My husband and I call it secret park."

"Nice park"
