James S. • September 6, 2014Porky the Litter Eater is a highlight (and hungry, hungry, hungry). Beautiful park with tons of trees and shade, lots of room and variety for kids, a train, and dog park.

Greg O. • January 17, 2013For a park in downtown Bethesda, it's very dirty. My dog is constantly finding trash, old food, cellophane wrappers, lollipop sticks, & other junk to try to eat. No one uses poop bags either. Gross.
