Walk through her with my dog multiple times per week. It is clean and kept up nicely and the Mills Mansion is beautiful. This is a perk for walking and sitting on a bench and relaxing not a "park" for kids to play at.

Both the park and mansion are a delight to experience, and the docent-led mansion tour is fascinating.

The last place we visited before driving to the airport was this Park. It is a small park with a beautiful building, Pleasant Home. We didn't visit this building but walked around the park and enjoyed the playing squirrels. They were busy hiding the food for the upcoming winter. Some of them were coming very close asking for food.

Roughly a block near business district of Oak Park. Excellent for walking and relaxing. Park contains Pleasant- Home, historically and architecturally significant structure.

The park has installed new sculpture throughout the park this summer, 2016. My wife and I went to see it, and were impressed with the variety of sculpture displayed. I felt it was worth the time to go see them.

We enjoyed a quiet stroll through this park and walked the labyrinth for relaxation. Others enjoying the park were families and dog walkers. The Pleasant Home is also a sight to see.

Very pretty large park in Oak Park. Home to Pleasant Home, which is a fancy old home that has many venues during the year. Mills Park is a great dog park, but also has lots of trees, squirrels. Bounded by a pretty cast iron fence so it's safe. We live half a block from here. Surrounded by houses and an old people's apartment block.

Compact, pleasant area for a stroll and great squirrel watching! Oak Park is great for walking but we were happy to rest our feet on a bench for awhile.
