Love this park, I go to it almost every day listening to my music! Theres always so much life at this place, kids running around, people walking, animals grazing, it's awesome
Used the disc golf course for the first time, also my first time playing through woods like that. I loved it! The course is well kept, even off trail.. the few disc I had to look for was fairly easy to spot and get, assuming you watch the flight path and landing. Definitely one of the more fun courses I’ve been too. The playground areas I saw while playing was nice too. Will be back with the kids to play some of the more open field holes and at the park. Lots of trees to shady the park so it’s not blazing hot
Great park. Much improved since I was a kid. We did a picnic for all classes from Fairmont East.
Indian Riffle Park is one of Kettering's great parks. It is huge (@94.2 acres!) and has many amenities. The park has multiple baseball fields, basketball courts, a great disc golf course, a stocked fishing pond that you do not need a license to fish at, soccer and football fields, and several picnic shelters with grills, restrooms, and water fountains. It also has a large skateboard park within and a great big sledding hill. Indian Riffle Park also contains the Kettering Recreation Complex and the Rosewood Art Center. There seems to be something for everyone @ Indian Riffle.
My son played baseball at the well-groomed fields and afterwards we spent some time at the playground with some friends. The kids (and adults) both had a great time. I love the old Wizard of Oz-themed swing set. I hope someday it's fully restored and not dismantled when the park is eventually updated. There is plenty of parking in multiple parking lots. Kettering also uses this park as a place to distribute compost and mulch from their yard waste and leaf collection program for free to Kettering residents. What a treasure for the city of Kettering! While there, had a parent talk to me about How it is sometimes hard to use the picnic area sat most playgrounds due to her childrens’ multiple allergies. I added a picture of a sign from another park in a different state that would be a great addition for Kettering to add to all of their parks.
A lot of equipment! Some gets a little hot. Would be great if there was some equipment shaded. Shelters are good if you're packing a lunch and they provide shade. But the littles had to play on the equipment!
Monkeys in the park!
