Location: Central, In/Outdoor: Outdoor Activity level: Varies Features: Eilers Park is a small (8.96-acre) park that includes Deep Eddy Pool (reviewed separately). The actual area of the park that is located outside the pool grounds is tiny. It includes several picnic tables, a small playscape, and two swings. The park is also one of the beginning points for the Town Lake Hike and Bike Trail. Cost for a family of four: free Best for ages: all |  |
The Experience: There are very pretty stone steps leading down to the park, or you can take a long curving paved walkway down to the park. There is a view of Town Lake through the trees. It could be a nice place for a picnic before or after swimming in Deep Eddy Pool. However, most of the picnic tables are in full sun. It is a small park, so don't expect to experience hours of entertainment.
Before you go: Bring sunscreen, consider bringing a picnic. You may want to bring a camera to take a family picture on the pretty steps.
How to go cheaper: Not possible.
Birthday Parties: Do it yourself.
Accessibility: Coming soon.
