Thomas Park

A Quiet Escape

Situated in the heart of Goodyear, Arizona, Thomas Park offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With 20 acres of green space to explore, this community favorite provides a great backdrop for both relaxation and recreation.

Well-maintained trails meander through the park's lush landscape, inviting you to take a leisurely stroll, get your daily jog in, or simply appreciate the natural beauty around you. If you're lucky (or perhaps unlucky, depending on your perspective), you might catch a glimpse of local wildlife - including the occasional coyote passing through.

Room to Play and Unwind

One of the best things about Thomas Park is how it accommodates so many different activities. The generous green spaces offer plenty of room to spread out a picnic blanket, toss a frisbee, or just lie back and watch the clouds drift by.

If you're looking to break a sweat or find a quiet spot to read a book, the park's thoughtful layout has you covered. The open areas are spacious enough for impromptu games or larger community gatherings without feeling crowded.

Something for Everyone

The family-friendly atmosphere makes Thomas Park a favorite local hangout. Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the basketball courts and soccer fields where you can join a pickup game or practice your skills. These amenities have made the park particularly popular with fitness buffs and local sports teams looking for a place to train.

It's worth noting that the property is actually owned by the school district and was originally meant to be a school site. While the grounds are generally well-maintained, reflecting the community's pride in their public spaces, the level of upkeep can vary year-round.

Good to Know

Getting to the park is easy thanks to the available parking lots, and there are several picnic areas where you can gather with friends and family. Just remember to plan ahead - there are no restroom facilities on site.

If you're bringing small children or pets, keep a watchful eye out. Wildlife sightings, particularly coyotes, have been reported in and around the park area, so it's always better to stay alert and aware of your surroundings.
