It’s a well-kept place in my neighborhood. I often go there to enjoy some inner peace and general tranquility; for the most part, I enjoy watching my young one(s) playing and having fun throughout the visits. The water, the jet-skiing are a lot of fun also.

I really enjoy going here with my husband and 3 small children (3, 5, and 8) It’s great for many things. Seeing fish, turtles, snakes, frogs and ducks by the hatcheries. Children can fish there too! There is also a very nice and clean newer playground with a swing for special needs children along with regular size and baby sized. Plenty of seating and some tables/benches for picnics. It’s also very nice to see the River up close and walk along side it on the trail. Plenty of parking and the ice cream man is usually always there for those hot days. I would recommend to anyone.

We discovered this park in far NE Philly through a Love your Park Scavenger Hunt. It is worth the trip! Aside from stunning views of the Delaware River, there's a fish hatchery area that encourages novice fishermen to practice catch and release. The original historic hatchery building from 1914 is closed but still stands. The park is dog friendly, has a large, new playground, a boat launch and the biggest parking lot I've seen for a Philly park anywhere. We look forward to visiting again in the summer.

Came for the sunrise so I can't speak much about the park itself. Beautiful spot by the river to catch a sunrise though
