Hunter Park
About Hunter Park
Cool Shade Under Old Trees
Set in Nampa, Idaho, Hunter Park is a cozy 1-acre neighborhood spot that feels like a secret hideaway. What really makes this place special? Those magnificent mature trees creating pools of shade - fantastic for when Idaho's sun decides to show off on summer days.
Tucked away behind the Romanian church and a bit hidden from the main road, this little sanctuary tends to stay peaceful and uncrowded. It's one of those places where you can actually hear yourself think - a rare find these days.
Fun for the Kids
The modern playground (updated in 2018) is a hit with the little ones. With slides for the thrill-seekers, climbing structures for the adventurous types, swings for the dreamers, and a merry-go-round for, well, everyone - there's enough here to keep kiddos entertained while you catch your breath on a nearby bench.
Got some energy to burn? The park's basketball court welcomes casual players of all skill levels. And if organized sports aren't your thing, the open play area makes a fantastic spot for impromptu picnics or just letting the kids run wild for a while.
The Practical Stuff
Scattered around the park, you can find several picnic tables waiting under the shade - ideal for lunch breaks or afternoon snacks. Need to stay hydrated? The park has drinking fountains to save you from having to lug around extra water bottles.
A couple things to note: there aren't any public restrooms here, so plan accordingly. There's also no designated parking area, however street parking is usually available nearby. The park borders a canal, which adds to its secluded charm while giving it a distinct character. Though Hunter Park may be small, its thoughtful layout makes the most of every square foot, creating a genuine neighborhood favorite.
