About the Location
What You'll Find Here
Positioned on 14 acres of green space, Stout Field Park is one of those quiet retreats where you can actually hear yourself think. The park blends natural beauty with family-friendly spots, offering shaded walking trails that wind through lush greenery. It's good for a casual afternoon stroll or letting your four-legged friend explore while getting some fresh air.
For the Kids
Little ones will make a beeline for the playground, complete with swings and climbing structures that'll keep them busy for hours. The playground includes an electronic game system with multiple play modes - bridging outdoor play with modern entertainment. There are different play zones for various ages, and kids particularly love the spinning equipment that'll have them giggling with dizziness.
When summer heats up, the splash pad becomes the place to be. This free water play area is helpful for parents looking to cool down energetic kiddos.
Getting Active
Ballers can shoot some hoops on the well-maintained basketball courts - spacious enough for a proper game or just practicing your jump shot.
If you're looking to squeeze in a workout, the park offers basic outdoor exercise equipment. Nothing fancy, but the elliptical machine and lat pull station get the job done when you're craving an outdoor sweat session.
Hanging Out
The covered picnic area with tables makes this park ideal for everything from birthday celebrations to casual weekend gatherings. That shelter provides some much-needed shade during Indiana's sweltering summer days.
Stout Field is rarely crowded. You won't have to deal with much noise - it's generally a peaceful spot for family time or quiet contemplation.
A Bit of Background
Dating back to the 1970s, this park has seen its fair share of upgrades through the decades. What once might have been basic green space has evolved into a thoughtfully designed community area.
Note that while there is a permanent restroom, it's occasionally closed for maintenance. During these times, a portable toilet is available - not glamorous, but it does the job when nature calls.
Finding Your Way
The park sits right next to an elementary school, creating an expansive recreational space that feels removed from the hustle of city life. Its somewhat tucked-away location contributes to that peaceful vibe that keeps locals coming back.
