Curtis Park
18 Fairway DrA fun place for a break from busy travel days. Get some fresh air and take a stroll!
This is a favorite “secret” park tucked in a little oasis behind some apartments buildings!! drive past the housing and cross the shallow river, and park near the play ground... then walk passed the playground and passed the swings down the stairs and you will come to the little river bank where you can wade in the water, stack some rocks, or walk completely around the park in the river run.
