Mineral Springs Park

Awesome park with beautiful water feature and sidewalk to walk around the man made lake. Lots of seating and swings. Some bird poop along the walkway but not a hindrance and only in a certain section. Beautiful gardens and nice memorial to Senator Dirksen in the outskirts. Beautiful night with gorgeous sunset!

Amazing place to be able to take your kids or a daily walk. There are several things to do at this park. You can watch a baseball game. You can rent a paddle boat which looks like a dragon. There is a playground area that is just for the younger kids. There is a very large walking path that you can walk around the pond.

I love the pond, the people, the views, and the SWINGS. This is my favorite park in the area because I can sit on a swing, read a book, enjoy the breeze, have conversations with friendly people, and enjoy the water all in one trip. It just brightens my day to see people fishing also.

Great space for dog walking. Some things to engage sense of smell. It was very quiet and peaceful early in the morning. There is also a nice size dog park if u want to go off leash. Restrooms are closed in fall and winter.

Overall s really great scenic park. There's something for everyone there. You can jog or leisurely walk the lagoon, fish, take your kids to the playground, have a picnic, or hold an event in the building there. I often take family photos and portraits there and just love it.
