Spring and fall mornings (8-11 AM) offer the most comfortable temperatures and fewer crowds. Tuesday through Thursday evenings are great for working parents who want extended hours, while Saturday and Sunday mornings are perfect for family outings before the midday rush.

The park is free to visit with ample parking available. Picnic shelters may be reserved for events, but plenty of open picnic tables and green space are available on a first-come basis.
