Vantastic family friendly regional park with all the bells and whistles. Clean, well maintained and very large. Featuring ball fields, batting cages, amusement park, ponds, walking and biking paths and more. Parking is plentiful and large enough for any size rig or RV. I had full bars of Verizon 4G LTE Roaming.

Freestone District Park is definitely a nice visit for everyone and anyone who wants a nice quiet stroll around the lake, to practicing at the batting cages. There truly is so much to do here! They have jungle gyms/playgrounds for the kiddos, baseball fields, sand volleyball, a skatepark, basketball courts and even a cute little amusement area. I am truly quite impressed with how well they have maintained and kept the park clean after so many years of visiting it. I would highly recommend spending your day here and even bringing the pup!

Had a great time at Freestone District Park. Plenty of opportunities to walk and see some wonderful nature. Activities abound for children, including several play areas and a lovely train ride and carousel. Also, there is a skatepark, batting cages, and tennis and basketball courts. Gilbert is a wonderful place, in general, and it is obvious that the town takes its residents and visitors seriously by providing an ample supply of things to do. Visit and enjoy often.

I’ve been coming here for 13 years now (photo from 9/11/2016), and I must admit it’s one of the nicest parks in the East Valley aside from Riverview park. This park is HUGE, it includes several playgrounds, a small reasonably priced amusement park with concession and a train ride, batting cages, a small lake with ducks and a man made waterfall, baseball field and basketball ball courts. There is plenty of seating around the park areas, a lot of parking, and the people in the area are super friendly.
