I'm not sure I actually made it all the way in to MLK Park before I had to head back, but the ride was excellent. I am SO impressed and thankful for those whose wonderful visions of what the park systems connecting with each other would be like. And a big booyah to ALL whose contributions made the difference to an incredible dream. Sorry, I did not mean to get verklempt (SP?) People, if you've not taken advantage of our parks system, y'all are just missing out big time. Give it a try solo with friends, family, whatever. I see speedy bikes, three wheelers , tandems, four wheelers, inline skating, skaters, skateboarders, runners, joggers, walkers (ummm...the good kind). Sweet. The paths are clearly marked and the directions clear. It's just lovely this time of year, in spite of skimpy foliage. The quiet is enchanting.
Playground
At each individually connected park, restrooms are available. There are several picnic areas in each park and many have diamonds for sports.
Dog-friendliness
Several pick up pooches potty stations are located strategically and it's great when used properly to clean up after their four-legged family members. There are always many doggies out walking their humans and most of them have fine manners.
Picnic area
The picnic tables are nice and some are even in the shade.

Me and my family usually come to this park late at night and just hang out/ play around on the playground area. However, we came across an “issue” today. At about 1:05 am, a police officer (I’m assuming just patrolling the area to make sure nothing bad is going on) pulls up and tells us that we have to leave the park because it is “closed”. Not only does the park online say 24 hours, but there is no posted hours anywhere in the park saying when it “closes”. I will still be calling the city to clarify whether there actually is or isn’t hours of operation. If there is, I’ll try to suggest that hours be posted somewhere in the park and be updated online. If not, we will continue to use the park because it is a nice park to take the family, but I will require an actual explanation from any officer who tries to kick us out in the future.

At Martin Luther coon Park they have a lot of the stuff that of the other profile they have a river the old are Greek or something they also have a YMCA have a baseball field basketball field football field all kinds of fun trails to go back in the woods you have a great time whole family happy birthday parties have a good time at General at Martin Luther coon Park Martin Luther King Park not a bad place that might be a lot of coons there but still not a bad word there's some decent comes out there you just gotta know where to look real talk

*SPLASH PAD REVIEW looks nice, but is rarely open. Me and kids were excited for the splash pad to open this summer. When it did the whole community was there having a bast, kids come with their toys and lunch to cool off during the 100°+ days. But for some reason it's been closed more days than it's been opened. We come to this park almost every day and noticed it'll be working for a couple days then closed for like a week. Idk why, other splash pads in town don't have that issue...

With gentrification, the city has finally begun to pay attention to our beloved MLK park!! It's really beautiful out here since they cleared out the overgrown trees and brush. They added a small splash pad that could use a lot more than water shooting up... Old Pearsall Road has an amazing space. We'll like a few things like that added over here. The updated pavilions make it great for family fun days or places to take a break after riding the connecting trail ways.

Excellent experience after the Covid19 experience. I was glad to see San Antonio back on top with the most supporters of the Martin Luther King Jr March in the Nation over 400,000 strong and God Bless this City. have a blessed and beautiful day and stay safe %
Playground
Excellent for kid's
Restrooms
Very clean and plenty portable
Dog-friendliness
They had a dog friendly area
Picnic area
Pinic area clean as usual

This place is so spread out, so green, so foresty, so muddy. Well it's muddy because I gone to the park after weeks of rain. Still good though, it's so spacious and smells wonderful like I'm at the monte. Good place to run around, bring pets, picnic, lay down, bike, play. It has it all. Also for y'all who live picking up pecans, this is the place for you pecan lovers.

My husband and I visited the park today for our great granddaughter's B-day party. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the park. It has plenty of trash receptacles. The easiesness of finding one's way and availability of parking spaces in the park makes it effortless to travel around. There are plenty of pavilions available.

Martin Luther king park is a grand park for family gatherings I live right around that park bot lot of people think it's bad side of town but that not that park has Changed a lot there Runners that Jagge thur there they Ride there Bikes thru so I Recommend people that park is for the families and kids.

I just started coming to this place and I will say it is waaayyy bigger then I thought my dog Bash loves going on walks her I luv to grab my hammock and read my books very peaceful here I also seen people have birthday parties yasss I luv it it even has a splash pad for the kiddos it's a must go

Loved the park but the city needs to do something about the fungicide taking over the trees ...save the trees, Hercules Hercules
Playground
They have several. Basketball courts.
Dog-friendliness
Your dog would love it.
Picnic area
Plenty of picnic areas

Had a fun and exciting bike ride. It has several picnic areas. It is good place specially when lot of people use the park at the same time. Just wish it is longer or interconnected with Salado Creek Greenway which is very close to it. They just didn't connect it for some reason.

They added a new splash pad and 2 large restrooms and really convenient places... Also for any Pokemon go players there is at least one new gym and two new pokestops... Just be wary of the Park police there because even if you're not doing anything they have questions for you

Large park with many amenities. You can take the kids or dogs for a fun day at the park. There's a splash pad, playground, grills, trails, and lovely large shade trees with Spanish moss growing on them. Spend your hot summer days here with friends and family

Shade to escape the heat, water fountains, lots of free parking easy access to the bike trail. Always empty on week days. Picnic tables and grills are everywhere. Three pavilions to reserve for the party. An under utilized jewel on the east side.

I'm giving 5 stars, but honestly I would like to see more covered picnic tables with grills. The park is large, with lots of recreation facilities and right in the middle of the Salado Creek Greenway trail. It is well maintained.

I don’t often sit at this park I just use it as a shortcut to get to the other side of the area, it’s a direct drive without the stop lights and traffic. It’s not hard on the eyes, it could use some TLC, other than that it’s ok.

Beautiful outdoor natural area. Lots of paved trails for waking/biking. Currently some new construction under way. Play ground is gone but newer and better may be under way with new construction. Can't wait to see what's coming!

Nice park there working on the park is some parts but the park is looking really good had lunch over there subway on the pizza table not too many sugar ants but there was a couple because of the pecan trees

Place is awesome but could use a little bit of updating or just fixing up a bit. But it's a nice park overall. Lots of different things to do and close to a lot of other interesting things SA has to offer.

I love this park iv been coming here every since I was a little girl its peaceful relaxing family fun place to bring your children I especially like upgrades they've done to this park in The Last 5 Years

Been coming here since I was a kid loved it then and still love it now great for family and also for dates with your significant other... Go check it out for yourself you won't be disappointed …

My son and daughter in law had their birthday shower here on Saturday. The location was perfect, clean & accommodating. The price was also good. Will return in the future for events.

Love it here as it is a big park, you can barbeque, play basketball, a playground for the kiddos and much much outdoor space if you want to play football or soccer with the kiddos.

Great trailway entry point! Long paved path and it's covered nicely with just enough greenery to stay cool but not have you bugging out! Great for bikes, scooters or skates.

It's the middle of a 13 mile trail. I'd run from this park to either the golf course or Comanche park. Very heavily padded witg trees some little creeks not too clean tho.

Took my son out so he could play @ the playground. Not sure if they had a bigger play area but the one in the back is small. Cool park for the entire family to come too.

They left ot so beautiful. We should takencare of it and keep it that way.. great pavillions for parties. The water area for the kids. It's all fun for the families

The sculpture at the entrance of the park is absolutely beautiful and very creative. The view directly from the front allow s one to see a face within the artwork.

Very nice park, pavilion was spacious and nice with bathrooms nearby and very cool splash pad for the kids. I will probably be coming back during the summer.

Clean trail head, accessible to the SA trails for walking, running or cycling. Restrooms available at the trail head and it is wheelchair accessible as well.

We need to visit more and more of community need to visit before they take a good thing away. They have fixed it up. And thats beautiful! …

Great bike and walking path. The added areas and Public Restrooms has transformed the park into a great place. We have chosen to excercise here daily

It was once a beautiful park. There doing a lot of work on it now so it's noisy and looks messy, but im sure it will be beautiful again someday.

This is a beautiful park. Lots of mature trees and green areas, it is a great place to go for a run, walk, bike or spend the day roller skating.

This has always been a beautiful park. It used to get used a lot more 20 - 30 years ago. The updates are great and they make the park feel safer

Very nice walking trail, most of it shaded, the park also offers a splash pad for the kids along with a children's playground equipment.

Plenty of room for children to run around and play. Picnic tables and BBQ pits. Lot of shade trees and beautiful new bridge to fish.

Amazing park two play parks plus basketball they are making a splash pad place and bathrooms amazing place to play Pokemon too

nice amenities like tables, BBQ pits, playgrounds & indoor bathrooms. nice bridge connecting to the salado creek greenway!

Nicely kept park! Rangers are patrolling. Quiet, clean, and spacious
Dog-friendliness
Great place to walk your dog!

We had such a great time with the splash pad and getting lost on the triail and going thru the woods a little was awesome.

Surrounding this ICONIC March is all San Antonio needed. Its the largest march in the Nation & this is where its centered.

Very nice to take the family had lots of fun even though parts of the park were under construction still a great place.

What a wonderful historical place to have photos taken. Thank you for keeping it so beautiful despite the heat …

Its very shady lots of trees ..a really large beautiful park great for walks, hikes, jogs and family fun in the sun.

There making many changes to this park. They even did a splash pad for kids. One of my to gos spot for Pokémon Go!

Nice park , it has a creek that runs through it . Bike/ Walking trails, and several picnic areas with BBQ grills .

It's very clean! I love the nature trails they are all maintained well. It was overall a great experience. …

A man had a dream a dream and now my daughter gets to play t ball in a park dedicated to him. Thank you Mr. King.

Beautiful, large trees! Took my first Yoga class there today and it was absolutely a beautiful place to relax.

Looks nice and peaceful, didn't spend much time there as I was working but its an area I would like to revisit

Beautiful park! Pavilions look good as new and there is a lot of room to play! Looking forward to returning.

We went Sunday morning and had an Easter egg hunt with our kids. Wasnt so busy while everyone was at church.

If you happen to climb on the Pavillion roof you can find lost sports equipment and free traffic cones...

Very nice park, play ground, wooded area, big fields(some open some with spaced trees), basket ball court

New to the area and I’ve never seen a park like this dynamic in Minnesota! Every city should have one!

I appreciate the fact that they keep the park well maintained and cleaned up the trash along the river

The city needs to clean the the creeks in the park and the trails The Creeks there is a lot of trash

The views are great.. playing fields available.. good for bikes and walks . nice place to visit

Nice park.still doing a bit of construction but it's come along way from what it used to be..

This park has come a long ways from back in the day. The area is so nice and well maintained.

Beautiful park very wooded and shadded. Dispersed picnic tables with their own parking space.

One of the most under rated spot's of the East side.... It's so peaceful.... Give 2 a go ASAP

Omg love the trail, we walked over miles and the scenery is awesome, the trail seems so safe

This is such a nice hidden gem. We were here for a football game. Nice field and facilities.

Its great for a BBQ but not to much to entertain the kids but a slide and a couple of swings

It was enjoyable. Busses were clean and readily available. Not enough bathrooms available.

Never new this park existed thought it was just a YMCA really clean and lots of activities

Beautiful , well maintained MLK Academy next door along with a youth group organization.

Renovated park looks great and has a lot of new equipment. Great running & biking paths.

I love the way they cleaned up the place it's been a long time but it's looking great

Enjoy going to this park! We go weekly! Can't wait to see the updates when completed.

Great place to have an event or exercise in general. It was clean and safe and modern

Nice and peaceful area love the track and the love that they have more then one court

Grandson had practice out here very nice but didn't see any restrooms near by …

Its getting better. Can't wait tell it done it needed the clean up as in rebuilding.

Nice park! New water feature came on while we were there. Need to go more often .

Nice quiet park. Cycling trail connects it to Koa camp ground and Pletz park.

Good football field but needs better player facilities, like locker rooms.

Nice trail along Salado Creek. Will be better when construction is done.

Nice trails good location. Mix of athletic fields and gathering places.

It had a lot of good art and space to walk and chill around …

The ONLY thing this park is missing is a pond but very beautiful park

Beautiful park and splash pad. Definitely will continue to come here.

Beautiful little park. Wish I lived closer so I could enjoy it often.

The park was clean and the pavement was smooth for roller skating!

We had our family reunion at Park 2 and found it very enjoyable!

Very nice comfortable cozy place. Enjoyed Mothers day BBQ there.

A beautiful moment to celebrate MLK day! Also touch my heart ❤️

It's always so peaceful here. I can and do walk for hours …
