More Leisure in the Park

Freestone Park is the perfect place for a family picnic or outing. It has innumerable meticulously maintained picnic ramadas, which are available for rental for large gatherings.

Two man-made lakes are a park centerpiece, one of which features a lovely cascading waterfall. Many ducks and geese call these lakes home, and they will be more than happy to accept handouts from park visitors carrying bread or other goodies.

The Freestone Park Amphitheater is another wonderful venue, as music lovers will be able to attend concerts throughout the year, relaxing beneath the Arizona sunset while listening to fabulous tunes as the stars gradually fill the sky. One really unique feature in Freestone Park is the steep hills that are used for ice block sledding.

The Freestone Railroad


Freestone Park's centerpiece is its replica 1880s style mini-train, which stands ready from September through May to carry children and other young-at-heart railroad enthusiasts on a three-quarters of a mile ride that circles Freestone Park at a fun, leisurely pace. While the Freestone Railroad is enough in itself to bring people back to the park again and again, the great news for young fun lovers is that the mini-train is only one part of a bigger carnival-style entertainment complex.

This mini-amusement park can be rented in two-hour blocks for birthday celebrations or other parties Friday through Sunday, and birthday children will be able to ride the train as many times as they want for free. Parties can be arranged in a basic package, or in a more elaborate package that includes extra amenities like ice cream and balloons.
