I love this park because of the beautiful scenery. I had my wedding at Anderson River Park because of its beauty. However, there are not so good people that go to this park so make sure you lock everything up and leave nothing of any value( coins, cash, jewlery, lottery tickets, etc) and that still may not protect you from these awful people. They broke out the back window of my car got into my trunk and stole my friends backpack,my purse that was hidden inside the spare tire compartment and various other things. I called the Anderson Police Department as soon as I saw what had happened but they were not interested in taking a report or anything, they didn't even come out to look at the damages. So, this was a very expensive lesson to be aware of bad people lurking around waiting to break into cars( there was nobody around when I parked my car) and always carry your purse or wallet with you when you leave your vehicle and assume you'll get no help from the police.

We were staying at Riverside Homestays and found this park with a free splash pad for the kids and great trails to walk our dog. It seems to be a great family friendly place with lots of shelters to have a party in.

Anderson is a small town with a population of about 11,000 people. The Anderson River Park is impressive. It is well maintained and has many amenities.

If you want a nice walk this is the place for you! Lots of nature and woodland animals to see as well.

My kids and I love this park. We usually go in by the soccer fields, and tennis courts. There's a playground for the little kids, a basketball court, baseball diamond, and lots of room to run through the grass. We tend to go there just after dinner, and it's almost abandoned. Always fun! We take our dogs (and clean up after them), to throw a frisbee. kick a ball, or just to have fun together.
