Reviews of Tecumseh Park (Tourist Attraction)

Josh Robinson

Many good memories of Tecumseh Park. Lots of history here and lots of new events happen here as there is a band shell and big food centered events often happen here in the summer. It's a good place to relax and have the kids play on the equipment there. Not bad for a stroll in the afternoon.

Darryl Leach

Used to be better with the pond and gardens but this way they can sell more tickets to rib fest and the concerts. The playground and hill for tobogganing are a favourite of my kids and it is a nice place for fireworks on Canada day.

James Sparks

Great centralized park for events in Chatham. Parking can be a bit of a challenge during an event. The nearby mall offers a lot of parking opportunities, but involves a small walk.

Scott St.Amand

In the park for RetroFest every year. Always a great experience.

Jim MacQueen

Great location for Ribfest. More permanent seating, like park benches, would be nice!

Fallan Vanderlinden

Still miss the water fountain but retro fest was a blast for the kids and adults alike

Julie A Smith

I went to see the Christmas light display at the Armory. It was amazing!

Ashley W.

Located in a quiet area by the armories. A great piece of history to be told about this park. Play areas for children and a variety of spots to choose from for picnics with the family.

Sky Fall

IT was a park

Keith H

Boring but it was empty and very quiet and allowed me and my dog to go for a nice walk.

Randy Rieger

A very nice park for such a small city. Much historic significance as well. Great for our towns festivals.

Andrew Tompsett

This is a nice park with wide open areas. At the heart of the park is a bandshell.

Tina Vince

Mike Goetheyn

Great place for kids

Yodaman Solo

There isn’t much to speak of regarding Chatham Ontario especially the downtown King Street area but there are a few bright spots. The Tecumseh Park is a nice little oasis. I grew up in the 70’s in Chatham and I was there often as a child. Lots of good memories there. ????☺️

Is a shame the fountain was taken out years ago, it's basically just open grass area with a few monuments. Half covered in shade but also a large area where the sun hits

Always lovely

Bernadette Renaud

Fun to be at when they have things going on. Very clean and respectful.

Boring waste of time. There's nothing there anymore and anything that is left there isn't taken care of. the only bonus is that when I go there there's never anybody else so I can let my dog run around

Cortney Chretien (Yeba Jr.)

Fun place to play pokemon go with the girls

Matthew Tengelits

Madison Wood

Great public events usually going on here in the warmer weather days... But for the most part very nice and HISTORIC park... (1000 yr old tree) im pretty sure its 1000 yrs old...

Dave Warren

Love it going for walks

iNoLifeOk

Wow trees its nothing anymore

Greg Simpson

I’m biased because I live so close, but I love this park. Lots going on, well maintained, and lots of people use it.

Roberta Richie

I miss the fountain and the rocks and the scenery now it just looks like a empty space

Debbe Behnke

Grew up near Tecumseh park. Could be so much more

gameing budds

Tecumseh park use to be so beautiful with a pond and alot of nature scenery but they have sadly taken it out years ago. It's now a huge field with a playground, stage, bathrooms & some sort of land ball. They have most there events here, although most the events arent too exciting. I feel the best thing about this is the fact theres plenty of pokemon go spots and a few gyms around to spin & do raids in.

Ryan MacLeod

Same ole same ole

Amy Dahms

Very clean and lots of space for kids to play. Small playground

Rob Lowrie

It's just a park

Kiana Kostis

It is a good sized park to walk around in. Sadie enjoys visiting it from time to time especially when the off-leash park is closed.

John Northey

Nice park with a playground and lots of open space. Baby and regular swings which is nice.

teha brown

Nice park, not much there though. It's definitely quiet and near the water but only time it's really fun when there are events going on up there. Good place to walk around, and maybe relax.

This park used to be ok. Then it was slowly neutered by the city. You can go here if you want to sit in a sad empty husk of chatham

A great spot for festivals or a nice stroll.

Located in the heart of Chatham this large park is something Chathamites can be proud of with its rich history and simple but beautiful landscape. It has plenty to offer and is enjoyed daily by Chathams occupants as well as its visitors. Personally I love this park and have always appreciated the very peaceful feeling I experience with every visit. ♡

Kim Hoffman

Played a game of Lawn Bowling and heard some great music from the Chatham Concert Band

cathy zink

City made the biggest mistake getting rid of the flower gardens in the fountains that was the only good thing left about that part horrible called at a city park disgrace to Tecumseh

Calvin Dekoter

Nice park for Canada day, not enough food trucks though

Awesome Tattoo

They're going to start a concert tonight but before that they had to get rid of all the homeless people that are sleeping on the stage. They just went back to the places they have on the river. They're dirty, hungry, poor with mental handicaps mostly and pretty soon they will be freezing.

Carlos Tiscareno

That was dirty, no bathroom around.

hunter kobus

Decent Ribfest. Bloomin Onions were awful. Nobody in line yet very undercooked.

Danielle Robinson

Great park

Pear Bryant

Memorial to war veterans.

Richard Viknanek

Great large area to play listen to bands and lots of mature trees

Richard Heaton

There for Retro Fest, park full of events and merchandise.

Deb Warnock

I was so disappointed with this park. It needs alot of maintenance done . Steps down to the river are all broken. Dangerous. Hardly any trees. Hardly any flowers. Definately not beautiful to look at anymore. I can remember when the pond was there and beautiful flowers. I brought a friend there from out of town. I was embarrassed. Chatham needs to smarten up and take care of their park.

Janet Aspler

Historic Site Great Battle of 1812

Gina Paradis

Lovely park with lots of open areas as well as large shade trees.

Should have kept the fountain and the little park on the bottom of the hill, it just don't look like the park when I was a kid ????

Twenty_Two

Very dirty park

Jakob Durocher

It's a park.

nothing open, but a nice walk with no bugs. Mcgregor creek needs a clean up by the harbourmaster. Full of garbage and tree logs and branches.

Richard quick

Very very small park

Bill M

You have me mistaken with someone else I haven't been to the park in years

Paul Hoekstra

Relaxation

Brian Putnam

Tree lighting and Christmas market in the armourie

X Harwood

Nice open space

Jer Thomas

The ducks were hanging out doing duck stuff, very peaceful to watch. Would totally recommend.

Kelly Martin

Went to Art in the Park there today and it was great! So many talented vendors and it was super well organized. I walked away with almost all of my Christmas shopping done. Yes it's early but I get them when I have the money and why not support local artists trying to get by? Seems perfect to me plus the stuff is cool! Kinda want to keep it all for me :p I won't though... Cuz as cute as my new baby slippers are.... They won't fit me, but my nephew will love them! Thanks!!

Cj Fedora

Spent some time in Chatham and visited a few of the outdoor parks. Decent parks but really NO WASHROOMS available or if there was a washroom it was locked. This was midday not late at night. Will avoid the city next time I go through!! ????
