Reviews of Oz Park (Park)

Peter Chavero

Very nice park. The parents can be nice depending. Timing is key if you dont want to go when the park is full. Usually early in the day before 230pm will be okay as it should be all little kids. At around 330 youll start getting more students from Lincoln Park High School. The weekends usually have some kids but not to many as long as you go before 4 30pm. Its a beautiful park with a big field.

Decent all wood park lots of shade average park Chicago doesnt have great parks when you compare them to other parks

Bill Griffin

Something for everyone. Little league and neighborhood bar baseball games, tennis, kid soccer practice, kiddy playground and meeting place for neighborhood dogs and their owners. Safe.

Robin Kelley

marula H

Playground is amazing

Adesoji Awoyemi

It's a nice park, my kids get to meet a whole lot of new friends. Will most definitely visit again!

Jason Scime

Nice big park lots of shaded areas, paths for walking and creapy looking sculptures of Wizard of Oz characters throughout the park. They are simi interactive if you scan a QR code with your phone.

Joshua Jeon

Great playground!

Matthew Ibalio

Nice play to walk the dogs or take your kids to hangout. There are several enclosed areas for various activities (i've seen picnics, tennis, softball, kiddie playground). It's in Lincoln Park so a relatively safe neighborhood, but sometimes you'll find people just wandering around late at night. It's near a lot of bars and restaurants, so places to eat after you're done enjoying the park. A lot of dogs hangout there as well.

Brian Kanner

Our family really enjoys this park and it's always on our must see list everytime we visit Chicago. It's not too fancy, but it is very enjoyable, not to loud during the afternoons and the parents/children we have come across have always been friendly.

Carly Forsthoefel

Courtney Prescott

Lots of open space and fresh air.

Christian J Brooks

Kids love the wooden play structures.

Great park!

Kimberli House

This is such a pretty little haven in the middle of a busy neighborhood. The Emerald Garden is a quiet place to enjoy yourself. (If you're one of the people who goes in there and smokes, you're going to hell. Die.) The Oz character statues are wonderful and, if you've got kids, they will love them. I also love them even though I'm not a child and not even that crazy about The Wizard of Oz.

Vineet Sandill

Great space.. Lots of it for all ages. Has an Excellent corner for kids of all ages which is well shaded with heavy canopy of trees.

Kelley Farrell

Oz Park is a lovely place in the city to take a minute out of my day. There's a good sized playground that's usually busy but not overly crowded, a garden area (no pets allowed in there), tennis courts, paved paths... I've even seen groups doing tai chi there! Also, if you're looking for a good place to socialize your dog, there are usually lots of friendly dog owners walking their pooches.

Eric Heidekrueger

Drive past the place all the time. Love the tin man

Phat Boii

I once round-house kicked a dog here

Chris Sierra

Great place to visit with family!

Tom Preuss

Great park with a lot of space. Surprisingly good, fee parking on Webster and Lincoln Ave. Sometimes gets busy, but most of the time plenty of room to chuck a frisbee around. If you're a pokemon go fan, this is a great spot to catch mons and there are often raids. Catch 'em all!

Dominic Peters

Best park in neighborhood! Open grassy area, wooden playground, basketball and tennis courts, baseball diamonds, track lots of options for all age groups. I wish they had bathrooms other than outhouses which are scary with toddlers.

Very nice, chill, clean, cute park. Parking is difficult in the day but later in the evening or early morning on weekdays it's much easier. Finding the different characters from the Wizard of Oz is really cute.

Cecilia S

It was a nice park, had the statue of the Wizard of Oz characters. Nice enclosed play area for kids, with seing, slides etc. Fence was about 3 ft tall

Andrew Clay

Lots of puppers. Would recommend

Pedro T.

Oz Park what can I say beautiful quiet and Serene but one thing I wish the place had is a pool or some type of Beach the big Park nice lot activities the water features will really bring out the park even more.

Claire Gray

This is a very nice park. Lots of room for activities.

Sriaravindan Sundararajan

A large area to play and relax

Austin L. Wright

This is a feature-packed little park for kids. The location is excellent for a weekend trip in from other parts of the city: a lot of food and drink options just up or down the block. Starbucks, Thai food, burger options, etc. The park had standard swings, as well as toddler swings (and a tire swing too!). A sprawling kids castle/climb element is the central piece of the park. Also right next to a beautiful public garden and baseball field. So why four stars instead of five? There’s always some graffiti in this park. We’ve had a purse stolen at this location. Some of the rocking features need to be replaced.

Helen Brent

Great park, had s hard time finding the Cowardly Lion though!

Vince Hamilton

I nice park with two baseball diamonds, lots of shade, and plenty of benches to rest on. Approximately on each corner there is a statue of a Wizard of Oz character.

John Bair

What a cool themed park. Enjoyed both days here immensely!

Larisa Kova

This park is stunning! I am a big fan of Wizard of Oz, and I must say the statues look amazing. I can relax here and read a book all day long.

Matt Renfree

Lovely neighborhood park. Well maintained facilities, well lit, and plenty of cool activities. The Playground was just updated, and is still one of the best on the north side. This small little park seems to have just the right amount of everything, and is obviously loved by locals.

Miriam Collins

Fun playground for little ones and older children. However, no public restrooms nearby.

Greg Snow-Wasserman

Free public tennis courts! Lots of cute dogs!

Best place for parks and families

David Porter

Great place for the kids. along with a basketball court, tennis courts, baseball field and a path that's great for a walk or running.

Kate Levinstein

Happened to stumble upon this park yesterday and loved it! It is a very well thought out park, from the 4 statues, meandering paths, Emerald City Gardens (my favorite part - so many types of flowers and plants!!), Dorothy’s playground, baseball field and basketball courts. It is a lovely place to spend some time if you’re in the area!

Erik Colon

This is one of our favorite parks to go to. We have a two year old who loves to swing and this park has at least six swings available for little kids. Even if you need to wait for a swing you rarely wait long. Probably three or four slides to choose from but careful metal slides can be a little fast. Park is a good mix of older equipment and newer equipment but everything is in great shape. Even on a sunny day the park remains fairly shaded which is a plus.

Fatima Mun

It's an awesome park with tons to do. The kids playground is great with many different types of activities for kids of many different age levels. The park has large grassy areas for all sorts of activities. In the summer (fall?) they sometimes play movies on a giant screen projector. There are also separate sections like a tennis court and a baseball field. Good location and accessible too.

Austin Mcnair

Great place to walk your dog! This fun park has beautiful sculptures of characters in the book. Great park surrounded by beautiful homes.

Gary

Very cool statues the whole family will love and nice park. Nice place to spend a day

lissa peterson

The kids from the school are rude and obnoxious but it's a nice park for kids. 6+

Pumpy the Horseman

biased since its a childhood favorite, but I have a lot of good memories here. Only complaint is some of the wood is falling apart. Not in critical places, just in the little roofs of the playground.

Dennis Woll

The children playground was great. Very big, lots of kids and parents were easily handled by this large play area Only negative was the high school was using the park to run laps in their physical education classes

scott crespy

Oz Park one of the great parks in the city of Chicago my daughter grew up in Oz Park but there's a little problem there it's not a dog park and that all dogs are friendly that are walking on leashes and when a dog runs up to a dog on the leash it could get aggressive either make it a dog park or don't make it a dog park somebody please police

321 and me

Super fun park. There's toys for the kids and a statue of the main Wizard of Oz characters. Also has plenty of shady areas for a hot Chicago day.
