John Muir Park

Play & Recreation

Tucked away in Green Bay, this charming, wooded retreat offers a natural escape from the everyday hustle. The recently renovated play structure has become a hit with the younger crowd, and it's easy to see why. Most of the playground sits under a canopy of trees, keeping kids cool while they explore the new equipment.

If you're more into sports, you'll appreciate the well-maintained tennis courts where you can work on your serve. The two softball diamonds are particular standouts here - they're meticulously kept and host plenty of competitive games throughout the season.

Comfort & Convenience

The park offers a reservable pavilion with clean restrooms - always a plus when spending the day outdoors. Picnic tables are scattered across the grounds, well-suited for an impromptu lunch or a planned outdoor meal.

What makes this park unique are the artistic wood carvings that add character to the natural setting. For those looking for a bit more adventure, try your hand at the wildlife scavenger hunt or geocaching - both are great ways to explore the park's hidden corners.

Seasonal Fun

When winter blankets Green Bay, John Muir Park doesn't hibernate. The ice skating facilities open up, with snow-covered trees providing a scenic backdrop. The park also becomes a focal point for holiday gatherings and seasonal events that bring the community together.

The Overall Experience

Bring your four-legged friends along - the park welcomes dogs, making it a favorite among pet owners. As evening approaches, you'll appreciate the well-lit surrounding streets that create a sense of security throughout your visit.

Beyond the main attractions, the surrounding area offers some nice spots for casual hiking and exploration. Situated in a peaceful neighborhood, you can find plenty of parking and a quiet atmosphere.
