Arthur J. Hendrickson Park

Beautiful, safe place to watch unbelievable sunsets... great, friendly people and relax any time of the day. Grab a cup of coffee and a piece of cake, fruit, or whatever you prefer and enjoy nature's most amazing views. Besides, walk around the lake, and that will complete your Physical and mental health treatment for the day.

MY family refers to this as Our Park. We walk here, play tennis here, bring our friends here to enjoy the pool in the summertime. The recreation center has many classes: art, exercise, game days, as well as providing bus service to retail as well as a monthly trip to Aquaduct Casino. Hendrickson Park is a beautiful place to go in any season.

This is indeed one of the best and well-kept parks in all of Long Island, possibly in all of New York! Lots of exercise stations and running trails for people to jog and work out daily, a playground for parents to take their families, and a wonderful pool that is open during the summer at its entrance! There are also places to play basketball and tennis as well as a senior center for local residents! Lots of ducks gather here too around the beautiful pond (which seems almost more like a small lake), and lots of cozy places to enjoy the sun outside with friends and family, as well as to have picnics or simply lay back and read a book! Usually very safe, convenient and open to all people! And only a few min away from the nearby restaurants such as the cheap Chinese buffet and the stores!

This park is simply beautiful with trees 🌳 and a gorgeous lake. There is a trail where you can walk, jogg, run or ride your bike. I noticed a beautiful thing. I saw an elderly lady with her walking stick on the trail enjoying the fresh air. There lots of benches so u can sit down at any time and relax enjoying the spectacular view of the lake. There are security patrolling the area so its pretty safe. Great area for peace of mind. The park is very active meaning people are getting their exercise in.

Very peaceful park. Beautiful pond. Excellent for walking and/or riding a bike. There are lanes for each. No loud music. No marijuana smoke... Great place to relax. Love this park.
