Kathleen Marriage Park

A Neighborhood Location

Nestled in the Creekside Estates area of Colorado Springs, Kathleen Marriage Park is a cozy 3-acre retreat that might be small in size but offers plenty of charm. This little pocket of nature sits quietly along the edge of a subdivision, offering local residents a breath of fresh air without having to venture far from home.

There's something wonderfully intimate about this park's somewhat secluded setting, making it a favorite hangout spot for families living nearby. It's one of those places that feels like it belongs to the neighborhood - a shared backyard where kids can play and adults can unwind.

What You'll Find Here

Despite its compact footprint, this park contains a variety of spaces for both active play and quiet relaxation.

Kids will make a beeline for the playground area, which thoughtfully includes two separate play structures - one designed with the little ones in mind and another for the older adventure-seekers - plus swings for all ages. Got a child learning to ride a bike? The short sidewalk loop here is well-suited for wobbly first attempts without the stress of traffic.

A basketball court stands ready for impromptu games, while the park's natural slopes create an unexpected winter bonus: when snow blankets the ground, these hills transform into sledding runs (just watch out for that rocky gully at the bottom!).

When lunchtime rolls around, claim the covered pavilion with its picnic table, or opt for one of the two sun-soaked tables if the weather's behaving. Within the park, benches tucked under the shade of mature trees offer perfect spots to sit with a good book or simply watch the world go by.

Ways to Enjoy Your Visit

This little green space adapts to however you want to spend your time - whether that's working up a sweat on the basketball court, supervising playground adventures, or simply spreading out a blanket on the grass.

Dog parents, your four-legged friends are welcome here, but they'll need to stay leashed throughout your visit. During Colorado's warm summer months, you'll appreciate the mature trees that cast cooling shadows across much of the park.

Good to Know

The parking situation is minimal - just a small scenic overlook loop - which can get tight when everyone in the neighborhood has the same idea to visit. Also worth noting: there are no public restrooms here, so plan accordingly.

The park keeps regular city hours, opening daily at 5AM and closing at 10PM, giving you plenty of time to enjoy this little neighborhood retreat.
