This large stream valley park offers many passive and active recreation opportunities. Natural features of interest include a large wooded tract composed mostly of mature oaks, several old  fields in various stages of succession, two water-filled mine holes, and extensive flood plain areas along the Jordan Creek. Jordan Creek and the mine holes are stocked for fishing. The park is excellent for bird watching and nature study. There is a picnic area along the Jordan Creek east of Mickley Road.

Active recreation facilities include: four tennis courts; baseball, softball and soccer fields, and a gamefield-jogging course. There is a community garden and a home compost demonstration plot at the sharp bend in Lehnert Road. The County Parks Department headquarters and maintenance facilities are located on Lehnert Road. More ballfields are added on the south side of Lehnert Road across from the County Parks Department headquarters.
