Great chill relaxing spot. Kind of bigger than it looks. Lots of benches to watch the water. Beach area, but no swimming signs. Playground, picnic tables, and a pavilion. Easy parking at the entrance.

We visited Rocky River Park🌳🌿🏞 in summer 🌞for a picnic. We were a big group so booked a particular area for whole day for a picnic🧺🥪🌿👒. The Park has a play area which includes slides 🛝, swings etc. The play area is good👌 for toddlers👶 and elementary kids🧒👧 age group. For older kids there is a open green💚 grass space where they can play some group games like baseball ⚾️, soccer ⚽️, cricket 🏏etc. although there are no 🥅. The view is good 👌 from atop as shown in pics. But for view you need to climb stairs 🪜.

I love this park; it's beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful! 🤍
