This is a quiet park is located in a small public area at the top of the hill. There is a swing here - but when I visited the seat on the swing was missing. There is limited off street parking. Several benches here for people to sit on. There are also several trees that create some shade - the shading though is better before 3pm. There are no restrooms here.

Fan-bloody-tastic! Hill is a bit steep though if you can't get a park down the bottom.
