What parents say
"Beautiful large park, good for long walks, you can see peacocks and ducks walking around, very green, there are also lakes and you can do fishing. The entry is 6$ per car, but they need to take care of the bathrooms and provide an access to the areas inside (the houses are locked, you can only look from the mirror). It says closes at 5pm, we arrived at 4:30pm and were worried to be the last ones to leave. However, it was very crowded and nobody seemed to be rushing to leave, so we left around 5:20pm and cars were still entering."

"Hidden gem of north Las Vegas. Perfect spot when you want to escape in nature. It's a quiet, beautiful place with lakes and lots of trees. Great location for photography, I've had a couple shoots there. There's peacocks and other wildlife. I learned it actually used to be some sort of divorcee retreat back in the day..you can read about the history outside some of the buildings. There's a charge to get in $6. You can use card."

"Excellent park! Lots of pathways, tons of water spots for the wildlife, tons of geeze and ducks. There are lots of places to sit, to eat, and to gather. The buildings are historical, which is so awesome. The park closes really early, 5pm, so go early or in the middle of the day. You can fish there also, 3 fish limit. The geese were not the kind that chase people or attack them, they seemed really unbothered by our presence. Would love to go back, there is also a bike path."
