Report: This is a nice park. I've been going to this park for over 20 years. It's not that big and it's away from the city, so that's a plus! Nice view of the Hudson River on the mountain. Pool is very chilly, but refreshing. Has a nice kiddy pool. Overall, a nice place to bring the family and friends!
