Yanticaw Park

Beautiful, peaceful and quiet. This park is wheelchair accessible. Pet friendly. Portable toilets on site. I highly recommend this park! This location has a soccer field as well as a baseball field. Walking path is clean!

Yanticaw Park is the largest and by far, the most athletically inclined of what I like to refer as the "String of Six Parks" in Nutley (north to south: Kingsland, Memorial 3, 2, and 1, Yanticaw, and Booth). Clocking in at just under 30 acres, and bordered by Chestnut Street on the north, Centre Street on the south, and Passaic Avenue on the east, its' keynote features are a huge basketball court and two ballfields. There also are amply shaded walking paths and numerous benches for relaxing upon. The Cocchiola Playground is on the south (Centre Street) side of the park.

It's a lovely park for sure. However, one must still be mindful of the environment. Most of the time, it's clean and very well kept. But in recent visits, I've found it to often have broken glass and other hazardous items in the direct area where children are. Be sure to always keep an eye on your little ones and for the ones who can understand. Be sure to explain what things to be mindful of. Overall, it's one of our favorite parks. I'm the area. The cushioned ground area is a huge perk.

Awesome big playground that my 3 year old absolutely loved. Though he definitely is a bit of a dare devil there is a nice area for younger kids as well. All fenced in so don't have to worry and we'll maintained with public restrooms. Parking isn't the best and so we had to find parking on centre street near Nutley diner. The parking lot next to it is private and will get your car towed so be careful.

An extensive park with walk and cycling trails. Play section for children, courts for different games. The trees gives it the serenity we all deserve from time to time. Of course there seats well spaces out that social distance is maintained.
I enjoyed my time there and would like people to try this park.
