Woodside Urban Park

This is a great park for meeting friends and relaxing. On a nice day, the place is packed with skaters, readers, and just a diverse mix of people. Great place for kids to enjoy and make new friends.
With this being a 2 acre park, you can walk or jog a few laps for a peaceful exercise. Beware the piles of leftover dog do do or you’ll end up like Forrest Gump.
Overall a nice park, just a bit small and overcrowded at times.

Me and my sister (side note: we are both grown ass women with NO KiDS) had the time of our lives at this park. Our father taught us how to play tennis on this court when we were kids and also enjoy the playground when we were kids.
My sister and I decided to skip the gym and go outside for our work out. To my surprise the playground has been upgraded since 96′ lol. Believe me when I tell you that me and my sister needed a manual to workout, «play», on this equipment. The playground was geometrically engineered for society’s future geniuses. Me and my sister felt stupid trying to figure all of them out, but damnit we had one hellava time. We were laughing so hard and loud that the parents were laughing at us but the kids joined in to teach the old ladies how to play.
In the words of my parents «Stop watching TV and go outside and play!»

Great park for all ages. I thought it covered the classics (swings and slides), but also the modern/​urban climbing equipment quite widely and evenly. Plenty of swings. Options abound.

I love this 2 acre park. It’s a perfect meeting place for friends, and way more peaceful than Wheaton Regional Park.
Ebonne B.‘s review pretty much sums up all it has to offer. It’s easy to park on the street (Spring or First Ave). The Metro is less than ½ a mile away. When i taught at the language college nearby, many of the students would go here to relax. We had picnics here when the weather was nice.
I am not sure if it is dog friendly, but MCCPC plans to build a dog park in the park off Ellsworth in the near (hopefully) future.

This park is great and they just renovated it a few years ago, so now Montgomery County plans on demolishing it again and rebuilding it. The skate park was a great idea, almost. It was way too small. Police could swing by a bit more to remove the riff raff that hangs out by the basketball courts

On any given sunny day you’ll find the skatepark filled with all kinds of little skater peoples, old men trying to school the youngins out on the basketball court, tennis players, maybe a few free runners, perhaps 1 or 2 people on the handball court and of course plenty of children frolicking around the two playgrounds. There’s a long-​forgotten waterfountain that could be a nice little diversion from the busy Georgia Ave traffic if it were to one day be revived to its former glory. Well I assume it had some sort of former glory but now it’s just a bed of rocks.
This park has:
— A gabezo
— a skatepark
— a basketball court
— 2 tennis courts
— 2 playgrounds
— a handball court
— plenty of benches albeit, a few with some dents and with a little shake & rattle (but not that many)
No pullup bars or other public park fitness equipment though, but there’s plenty to make due with. Also, no bbq grills here, but I think one of the other nearby parks has one.
There’s usually plenty of street parking nearby but if not, try one of the neighborhood streets in the cute little Woodside neighborhood.

Good and cozy park with 2 playgrounds, also has a skate park. But need to clean up debris
