There are special activities for your children; solitude for you on the walking paths, or fun for you canine in the dog park area.
We recently moved from an area that doesn't have a dog park close by. We not only found this 10 out of 10 park but a 10 out of 10 private dog park.We are so relieved to find such a well maintained area for out four legged family member.Thank you for making our dog happy.Chuck and Lisa Miller
Willow Springs is a great place to have a picnic, take a walk, let the kids play and even the dogs.With a great view of Buffalo mountain, it's a wonderful place to throw a blanket down and have a picnic. There is a great play ground for the kids. And the walking trails are great.They also have a place for Fido to play too.
Average size playground that has 3 separate areas based on size/age of child. Basketball, volleyball, paved trail, nature trail, pond habitat, open field area.
We stopped going to Willow when their playground started looking ratty! We haven't been in a few months but last time we went their playground had been broken for over a year. They do have a wonderful walking trail.. basketball courts.. volleyball.. etc. It's a great place to spend a lazy Saturday!
I used to live within a mile of the park and spent a lot of time here running. My kids could play on the playground, throw frisbees, ride bikes or play soccer. There is a great dog park, too! Convenient location to town with incredible views of the mountain...very nice. There is a fee for dog park membership.
This park is nestled a the base of the mountains on the eastern edge of Johnson City Ten. They have a few playgrounds near the entrance of the park which were in good repair both times I visited in 7/2012 and 12/2013. The park has a small pond and tons of open grassy areas and paved trails with beautiful views of the mountain. The open areas are sweltering in the afternoon sun in the summer, including the playground but in the winter, it made for a perfect day in the sun. There are some wooded trails on the perimeter of the park as well. The park also boasts an enclosed dog park that was not fancy but the area seemed clean and well maintained. Only drawbacks would be not enough points of interests (playgrounds, fountains, fitness stops/equip, benches, statues, pavilions, etc) among the large expanse of the back of the park where all the paved trails wind through. I feel they could do something more with this open space (which could use some shadier areas too, but some planted trees still look young).
Playground for the kids. Dog park area. Paved walking/running paths. And a turtle pond. This park gets a lot of use when the weather is good!
Beautiful views, great walking trails, plenty of parking and wide open spaces! Also a playground for kids and a basketball court.
Awesome walking trails, perfect playground for kids. Not a ton of shade, but beautiful views and nice bathrooms.
