Creston Park
Shaded neighborhood off-leash field tucked behind Powell
About this park
A hilly Southeast neighborhood park with a designated off-leash area on the open field next to the playground. Shade trees, paved paths, a community pool, and regular neighborhood events give the grounds a busy, family-friendly feel alongside the dog crowd.
Amenities
Creston Park reviews
What visitors consistently sayReviewers praise the amount of tree cover, the picnic tables, and the roster of friendly dogs that show up on sunny afternoons. The park is often full of families barbecuing and kids on the new play structure.
Warm-weather weekends draw picnics, music, and a steady stream of dog walkers. Very much a neighborhood hub rather than a destination park.
Best for
Before you go
Ignore the Powell Boulevard address. GPS will send you to a blocked frontage. Use the parking lot off the neighborhood on the west side, or street-park south of the playground.
