"Sugarland Memorial Park is a nice family gathering spot. It has table tennis for the adults. Bathrooms are not that clean, and the floor is wet. This can be improved."

"This place not only has walking trails and plenty of sidewalks, but the amount of MTB trails are crazy and that's what my wife, and I really like. We went yesterday and we're going back today It's worth the drive so if you want to use the park or just walk around or use the zip lines or ride them trails this park has it all This is definitely our new favorite park."
