Great practice field for soccer and also great basketball courts
I thought I had already reviewed this place. The fields themselves are nice, but the fact that there's only 1 porter potty, that's nuts. They pay enough in taxes over there, and the fields are massive that they should redo some stuff there. Parking isn't bad. Standard issued gravel lot.
Unlike the majority of West Windsor-Plainsboro parks, the Duck Pond Mill is strictly a sports facility park. There are baseball court, two basketball courts, tennis court, valleyball court, and mostly soccer fields with one single asphalted lane encircling those by their perimeter.
Yes, there are some picnic tables, two or three of them, but most importantly, there are no nature hikes, neither pleasant views. Playgrounds, swings, doggie parks, and sand pits are notably absent, too.
Yes, there are multiple parking areas (gravel), there is portable toilet (port-a-potty), but that's about it.
Also, the "Duck Pond" name is misleading. We have failed to find one, neither on the map nor in the real park. The only Google Maps picture showing a pond dates back to 3 years ago. Was it drained? Has it ever existed?
To make a long story short, unless your child participates in some group sports activities, there is absolutely nothing to do there for a nature-loving visitor.
The so-called Liquid Church, non-denominational, however, offering Bible studies (why not Torah, Veda, Quran, nor the Book of Mormons if it's "non-denominational"), with its neat spacious building is adjacent to the park.
We had kids soccer tournament at this park. It's an awesome park with a big field. Very well maintained!
It's a nice park to stop and rest. There is a short trail you can walk and a little pond. It's very quiet but when I came.
