Juneteenth celebration. Good music and people.
Pretty park in a bit of a rough neighborhood, fine during the day, but avoid late at night.
Its exciting park for the residents of that area 😁
Was a great time at the park
The park itself is nice. theyre teyi g to make it mire family iriented but alot of tumes there are hoidlooms an drug dealers around. you just gotta watch ti.w if days
I have always liked Nimisilla park. I loved learning its history when I was younger ftom.my mom who remembers the zoo and other community activities that took place during the 1850s. It is fun to walk the circle, it is gorgeous in the winter and fall trees are awesome. It is my favorite place.
We had fun, but needs cleaned up some. Ppl make a mess here at times..
It was great to be able to celebrate our history in our city like everyone else. Food was great music was just right and everyone loved on one another
Beautiful! Calm! Quiet! 5 stars.
Super cute, enjoyed walking around.
The park was mostly clean but there was broken glass in the pavilion area. There was also a drug deal that happened right in front of us... not the most ideal place to take your children. If they would clean it up more and find a way to keep certain people out then it would be a perfect park.
Had a nice time. Was a beautiful day to visit. Well surely be back, as it was clean and well taken care of.
There were a lot of kids and parents having fun. Generally, Im apprehensive about going here because of its checkered past but the playground and surrounding area is clean and safe. There was no riff raff around.
I went with my two kids for 5 mins before leaving. There were men loitering and cars parked sideways in the parking spaces just idling. One car kept circling the park slowly and the guy inside was making all my “mom alarms” go off. I wouldn’t recommend anyone going alone and definitely not with small children.
I grew up going there and when there was a whole zoo also. Epic games of thirty-three, sign out and horse. Summer league and Juneteenth. Picnics and just hanging out. Great shading from the trees and overall a tranquil experience.
I love this park i grew up going to this park it hasnt changed it has so many memories
I know it gets a bad wrap bc of its Urban image but I personally have never had or seen an issue at this park. So I dont mind taking my kids there. And the ppl that gather reminds me of the Front Porch days. But could use a more creative kind of equipment for the kids seems a little boring. A Merry-go-round and a real Teeter totter would be a good start...
Playground is in good condition but the grounds are dirty with alot of trash on the ground. When we were there, there were many black men in the area-atleast 20-30 vehicles of just black men there to blast their rap music and deal drugs. Not recommended.
Great place for family get togethers lot of space
Nimisilla i grew up in this park the 5 stars are for my history there when u use to have to park outside of the park because it was to crowded to drive in. I lived around the corner from here maybe 2blocks.... The greatest times were here.
Nimisilla for all those dont know, is a time capsule. Its where local people come to reminisce, and expose their children to a time when life was simple, and carefree. I love this park...its part of my life story, and it will be so for my kids as well. If youre not from the area, you may be taken back a bit, but for those whom are familiar...all we remember are cookouts, basketball tournaments, family gatherings, finding new love, the old trees, playing in the big piles of leaves, festivals, cruising through in that favorite car...the list goes. This is one if the better parks in Canton. If youre afraid to stop and take it all in, then you might be missing something. Dont let fear control your behavior...
This is a good City Park to take your kids at its pretty well kept by the city and it gets them out of the house and get some to play my kids love it so please if you have kids and youre going to watch them and bring them to this park its pretty clean
Nice little park. The kids had a good time running around. It was very clean as well
Yes it is a park , but if you know this park, well then thats why you dont go to this park if your not from this area then do not go to this park.
Very Nice Staff And Nice Environment They Really Care For Your Pets
Clean park. Not a great area, would recommend a little bit longer of a drive to cantons other parks
This is my old hood park located off the O-Jays Blvd. Every hood n**ga from the ne b chilln out here, smoke, bottles, rolling thru in nice whips, my family lives here bbq everyday in the summer. I use to ball here on the courts one of the 1st places i played on a court as a kid
Its not handicap friendly. It would be nice to have easier access to the play area. Perhaps a couple of tables.
Great place for exercise or just to let kids run around and play
Great park, for family and friends should be renamed Chicos park. He goes down cooking and end up feeding the whole park he is a great guy and loves everyone
Nice park for family events and children but the city needs to invest in this park. 2 park benches not including which is under the pavillon really .
A safe get away and just chill while so Ill distancing and meeting new ppl there.
If you dont like getting stared at, If you do not like a lot of people, You do not like loud music, If you do not like the smell of smoke... Dont go to this Park! Lol
All I have to say about this park is dont go there lol 🤣😆👌🏼
Really nice park but I prefer to go when theres not a lot of people.
Great place for family/friends cookout baseball games etc. Plenty of shade.
Alot of people always here on the weekends. Not bad for real though
Beautiful park, needs a few shops and police presence to turn it into a nice place to go.
Be going since i was a kid.
Old park and needs improvement on the playground area and not safe at all but great for picnics and reunions..
Very nice nature style and multiple uses of parks and pavilions
Great place when its not raining. Went there for a community day event
It was awesome havent been there in years....GREAT time
Had a good time with family and friends.park was clean and peaceful
Considering where its at you wont find many other decent parks around there was a bunch of trash in the river and the park such as an old shopping cart excetera but you have to consider the area which is terrible
I just moved to the area and have 4 kids 9 and under. Just wondering if its family safe or not.
Relaxing atmosphere. Love the park.
Great clear place to go and relax.
Very good place for children to play 3
Nice place to sit in your car and watch the kids play 😉
Scary park. Just drive through here occasionally to play Pokemon Go but stay in my car.
Historic park with a few basketball courts and some playground equipment.
Clean and relaxing
Its the best place in the city when its 90 plus outside. Cause of the contense brezz. Love 😎😉
It was nice helping the community and cleaning up i sometimes go their to volenteer
Not the best place to bring your kids too many adults go to drink get high fight so cops circle the park often sometimes park there and wait for drama around 5
Born and raised. Fond memories, always tops in my book.
Every time I go to this park I have a wonderful time !!!😚
It was beautiful no arguments no fights no shooting it was really nice a lot of food old people dancing
Nice for the kids
Nice park away from crowds
Nice park for picnics and social gathering
They may have put in new equipment. But yet it only lasted a couple months and was ruined. It may have been repaired. But still destroyed non the less.
Clean and fun park
Its a nice facility, but . . . Definitely eerie
I was raised across the street,on Young Ave. Been visiting this park since before I could walk.
Great 3 day activities for Juneteeth celebration. Thanks
A park for kids to jave a blast clean and nice

2021-04-07I give a high rating to this place simply because of the incredible effort in cleaning it up. I was here 25 years ago and it has really changed. The new, and very bright street lights are incredible, and very much appreciated by local residents, Im sure.Good job guys!

2021-06-29On a hot day you want to go to a cool park. It has beautiful trees . Its location is in the city but when you enter this park you are transported a forest. A great place to take the children.
