What reviewers say elsewhere

  • “This was a beautiful park and the City of Bay City just allowed it to get run down. There are weeds in the garden benches are in bad shape and the play area for the kids needs replacing.”

    — Kelly Hawkins, June 30, 2026 · google

  • “The city has revamped Birney park over the years to make it look better. Just not the best area nor much to do.”

    — JUN3 BUGG, June 14, 2026 · google

  • “This park is ok. It would be a lot better if it was taken care of. It seems to be a hang out for homeless people who leave their junk all over.”
