Man, this place could use a good algae rinse. The moat-like water feature at this place smells rather nasty if the temps tick above 80\u00ba. Luckily, the rest of the park is rather nice and sprawling. There's usually a great place to have a picnic or throw around a frisbee.\n\nUnfortunately, the ball courts on the south side of the park are a disappointment. It's hard in Central Phoenix to find nice basketball courts. At least there's several courts, but you have to buy a membership ($10) to use them. Perhaps that's why they're usually empty. The adjacent raquetball courts look like something out of the 'Saw' series.
