About Sunbow Park

Recreation Spots

Tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood, this cozy 3.7-acre green space offers a surprising variety of activities for both locals and visitors passing through.

Sports lovers will appreciate the three tennis courts with their own private entries and lights that stay on until 10PM. Just keep in mind there are time limits when others are waiting - 45 minutes for singles and 60 minutes for doubles. Feel like something different? The park also includes a soccer field and a track for when you need to get those steps in or burn off some energy.

Paths and Open Areas

If you're looking to stretch your legs, you'll discover some nicely maintained walking and hiking trails with clearly marked paths. Many regulars enjoy doing laps around the park for their daily exercise. There's also a generous grassy area that's excellent for spreading out a picnic blanket, tossing a frisbee, or just lounging with a good book.

The open design of the park makes it easy to soak in the natural surroundings. One thing to note - shade is pretty limited here, so don't forget your hat and sunscreen if you're planning to hang around for a while.

Family-Friendly Elements

Got kids? The park has a playground with slides and play equipment that, while not massive, is cute and provides plenty of fun for little ones needing to burn off some energy.

Dog parents will be happy to know the park is dog-friendly, making it a nice spot to bring your four-legged friend along for some outdoor time.

The Setting

One of the nicest things about Sunbow Park is its location right where the neighborhood meets the woods, giving you that refreshing nature connection without having to venture far from civilization. It's become a favorite spot for peaceful solo outings and community get-togethers alike.

The park consistently earns points for being clean and well-maintained, with a chill vibe that's ideal for recreation or just unwinding. You can bring alcohol (no permit needed), however kegs and glass containers aren't allowed.

Amenities

You'll come across picnic tables and benches scattered throughout for resting or enjoying a meal. One important thing to know - despite what some listings might say, there are no public restrooms available in the park. It's definitely something to plan around before your visit.
