Thornton Murphy Park - Park in Spokane - 3105 E 27th Ave, USA

I have a garden there and the park is always teaming with people. Mostly kids n they always seem to have fun there. Seems fairly safe as there always parents around. The water feature is very cool. Basket ball courts being used a lot. Could use some water for the trees and grass in a few areas where the people are instead of inside the fence where the water tanks are n nobody can go.

Great park for families and kids, certainly DOGS.... Nice picnicking spots here as well..... LOTS of big trees for shade. BBQ pits, playground, basketball courts and softball fields are available and plenty of parking in the lot and along the street. Nice park. Great place and well kept for the city parks.

Great little park to watch the grandkids play in the evening. Plenty of shade, splash pad, basketball courts, swings and playgrounds

This park has decent playground equipment, lots of grass to run and play games, and good shade. The bathrooms are closed due to vandalism, which limits our time to explore with a toddler. Decent neighborhood park, go potty before you go!

Nice park, pretty clean and well maintained. I cleaned the garbage off the playground the other day. Splash pad, swings, picnic tables, bathroom, ball field. Some homeless hang out there.

Nice, shady playground. Great little splash pad. Smaller Picnic Pavillion. Big softball field. It's a nice park. It even has a big blue swing for the disabled or big kids who need extra support.

The rating is not for the park itself but the joke of a "reservation" system in place by Spokane Parks and Rec for events. My four year old's birthday party was almost ruined due to the small gazebo being taken up by another family (not their fault) because they came there early. We paid $50 for four hour slot but didn't get the gazebo as reserved. We were told over the phone that there would be signs set up but apparently that's not a thing If clearly there's a reservation system in place and you're charging us for it, there should be signs, something to suggest that this little area is reserved and separately paid for, on the day of by the park authorities. If not, just stick to the normal expectations of city residents ie. first come first. The park itself is great, with splash pads, swings, basketball court nearby. Again, the two star rating is to draw attention to the callousness of the Parks and Rec, not the park itself

Recently took my grandchildren there- as a birthday party was in full swing. Kids trying to block the drain on the splash pad, parents not watching their kids. It was chaos, we had to leave.
