Woodglen Park
About Woodglen Park
Your Neighborhood Escape
Situated in Mesa, Arizona's Beverly Mesa neighborhood, Woodglen Park might be small in size, but it offers an excellent little retreat from the daily grind. This cozy public space offers locals a place to enjoy some fresh air without venturing far from home.
The heart of the park features an inviting grassy field - ideal for tossing a frisbee, having an impromptu picnic, or simply lounging with a good book. What really makes this place special is the generous canopy of trees that dot the landscape, providing much-needed shade during those scorching Arizona afternoons.
What You'll Find Here
Despite its compact footprint, Woodglen Park doesn't skimp on the essentials. The picnic area comes equipped with tables where you can gather with family or friends for a casual outdoor meal.
If you're in the mood for grilling, there are barbecue grills scattered across the grounds. Kids will gravitate toward the playground equipment, which is kept in good condition and offers enough variety to keep the little ones entertained while parents chat nearby.
One of the park's practical features is its non-reservable ramada, providing a shaded sanctuary when the sun is at its fiercest. Even the parking area benefits from the park's mature trees, so your car won't feel like an oven when it's time to head home.
A Green Oasis
Surrounded by lush greenery, Woodglen Park creates a peaceful bubble within its suburban setting. Its location on the edge of a sprawling residential area makes it an easy destination for nearby residents seeking a quick nature fix without a long drive.
The soft grass and abundant trees make this modest space pleasant for family outings. Dog owners particularly appreciate the shaded pathways during summer months - no more worried glances at your pup's paws when the sidewalks elsewhere are hot enough to fry an egg.
Good to Know
This park has been bringing neighbors together for decades, with parents now bringing their own children to the same playground they enjoyed as kids. While Woodglen offers plenty of charm, you should note that there are no public restrooms available, so plan accordingly before your visit.
