Great park to bring the kids and dogs. Nice park with playground, dog play areas and walking path.

May 28, 2026 · Google ReviewThis pristine four-acre recreational space and educational historic site was dedicated in 1982 to honor the courage and resilience of Mother Mathilda Beasley to ensure her legacy as Georgia’s first Black Roman Catholic nun and a champion for the marginalized would never be forgotten. Mother Beasley's actual historic cottage (relocated from Price Street in 2014) is it's centerpiece, and the park grounds feature a large baseball/softball diamond with bleachers, an open multi-purpose athletic field for soccer or football, and a multi-purpose paved walking track that outlines the perimeter, two distinct children's playground areas equipped with modern play structures built over soft, bouncy safety turf. There is a decked pavilion overlooking the playground and ball field, uniquely designed to reflect the aesthetic of Savannah's former passenger railroad stations. The Dog Park, opened in 2008, is a popular, fully fenced-in off-leash dog exercise area. It features water access, a shelter with picnic tables, and separate spaces for large and small dogs.
