county park

Local public grounds

A county park is a public recreational area maintained by a county government, typically offering green space, trails, picnic facilities, or playgrounds.

County parks fall between smaller city parks and larger state or national parks in scale and funding: The county park has a lake for fishing and swimming.

We reserved a pavilion at the county park for the reunion.
