About this park
A small near-downtown neighborhood park with a flat lawn, a sand volleyball court, and a shaded glen of mature walnut trees on a sloped hillside. Dogs must stay leashed, but it's a useful quick stretch of green a few blocks from the Old West Side and walkable to Washtenaw Dairy.

Locals call out the walnut glen as the standout feature, with shaded benches that make it a regular afternoon stop. The hill doubles as the neighborhood sledding spot in winter, drawing a small but loyal crowd after a snowfall.

Before you go
Park along Edgewood Place to skip the steep climb up from Madison. There's no restroom on site, so plan accordingly.
