Came here for the first time today. The playground is great! Has a Little Rock climbing thing, an actual playground with multiple slides and kinda like a treehouse. It was really cool! There’s a fun seesaw too and a work out playground to the side. And it’s all on mulch which is love! It smells so good and feels so natural! The hike was great too! Flat but they even have picnic setups inside the trail! I love it here! The restroom was good too but no hand soap. Not a deal treater bc I always have sanitizer on me but was ew. lol
Lovely park in Kings Point. The path is clear and spacious to walk through with lots of fallen trees, foliage, and wild animals that pass through. We are nature enthusiasts so it was nice to see the fallen trees cleared from the path and the life that grows from it. Picnic areas were also clean although it's only the very beginning of the warm season. I can imagine when it gets busy that parking can be tight but there a couple small lots. There were multiple bridges over creeks of which a couple seemed a bit old/unsteady although they held up. Very peaceful place - we will definitely be back.
Kings Point Park, located in Great Neck, NY, is a sprawling haven for outdoor enthusiasts. With over 175 acres, it features more than 5 miles of trails for hiking and cross-country skiing. The park is also equipped with 26 picnic areas, 4 softball diamonds, four Har-Tru tennis courts, two all-weather basketball courts, and a soccer field. In the winter, visitors can enjoy sledding down the park’s Sled Hill. It’s a place where families can gather to enjoy nature and sports alike, with convenient amenities like restrooms and designated areas for leashed dogs.
Nice playground with two levels. A little tricky trying to find. We initially went to the wrong entrance and had to drive almost two miles to get to the other side of the park. There are restrooms adjacent to the playground. Easy parking
No complaints except the wierd parking lot and little detours they put around the grounds. It's a beautiful place I've just barely started to uncover but it's truly a slice of heaven and the beach is a huge plus. Fishing and hiking are exceptional for beginners or experts.
This park is great for all sorts of activities. It’s good for a stroll, a jog, or perhaps a run. It’s also good for sports and games. Any sort of physical activity you’re interested in, you will be able to do at this park. It’s a massive park, with lots to do. I strongly suggest you come to this park more often.
Mainly forest with multiple well maintained trails. Wood chips provide a soft landing for sneakers when out for a run. It's tucked into an affluent area and has a small parking lot. Nothing real interesting to see, but an outstanding place for a peaceful run away from it all. Lots of shade and quiet.
Note: This park is for local community residents only.
Otherwise, this is a nice and clean park with a main trail around the lake and a few branches that go to the interior picnic grounds and ball fields.
The trails are fairly wide, about 5 feet across and mulched. A lot of shade. The trails run along a creek so there are a lot of flying insects and birds in the area.
This park is high up there in cleanliness. Most of the paths have wood chips nicely spread. They have paths for dog and for individuals who would like to avoid dogs. The outer path is a little over two miles.
Beautiful park with lovely wooded walking paths. Would give it five stars, but for the fact that the park is reserved strictly for Kings point residents. Don't expect any hospitality from this highly wealthy (but stingy) municipality.
Beautiful park in the warmer months! The trails are very scenic and fairly well maintained with woodchips. There are softball fields, baseball field, soccer field, and creeks running through. Perfect place for a run or walk
This is low key the best park in great Neck with the trails,
Softball fields, and tennis courts
Basically two parks combined steamboat side “Kings Point Park” and “redbrook Park” on the Redbrook side.
Trails are about 2 miles long depending on what path you take
Perfect for a stroll
They do have a dog leash walk on the trails as well.
Enjoy
Nothing special to see here. Typical untidy NY park, supposedly for residents only but nobody checks. Small parking lot for trail area. Most spots have no cel signal. Plenty of signs that says "no dogs allowed beyond this point". Soft but muddy trail.
I've reviewed this before... Officially, you need to be a resident here, but no one is checking, except for tennis. Wooded brookside walking or cross country ski paths. Ball fields. Picnic areas. Tennis courts. Except for the fact that there is only one bathroom and two parking/ access areas, this place is invaluable.
Tons of acres in this beautiful Kings point park. With a lot to see and do. They have a great playground for kids and many picnic tables for breakfast and lunches. Love going here with my friends in the summer and soaking in the sun. It's so big I'm sure you'll find your own spot be comfortable. Give it a try. A must go if in the area they have tennis courts for members and many open trails for visitors. Please take advantage of this beautiful public park you won't regret giving it a visit
It's "my" park, so be courteous; Keep your dog on a leash, don't litter, and "muzzle" your ex in-law ( it's a joke) if you are walking the trails. They have tennis, ball fields and bathrooms at only one of the two main entrances. Enjoy, and learn how to jog faster if you have to go pee after consuming a gallon of Gatorade playing soccer! You are supposed to be a resident of GN to use the facilities, otherwise be my guest.
This park has good walking and jogging trails. All the terrain is flat, no elevation changes. The trails are well maintained. It can be walked in regular sneakers.
There are multiple points to barbecue and one playground at the Steamboat Road entrance. Two parking lots (Redbook and steamboat). There are also a few fields that are decently maintained.
Overall a nice park for a long stroll.
The park has baseball fields on the North and South Entrances. It also has numerous trails that run throughout the Forest. Wonderful place to go all four seasons.
