Sertoma Park

I headed here hoping for a relaxing afternoon outside, but the experience was just okay. The park itself is decent, but some of the walking paths were in pretty rough shape and there was a decent amount of trash around the picnic areas, which made it feel a bit neglected. It has potential to be a really nice spot to hang out, but it definitely needs some better maintenance and cleaning up to make it more enjoyable.

Even though it was february, it happened to be in the 60s when we were here and had a blast at this park. It has three different playgrounds, and aquarium and butterfly area, and lots of places to run. Great area for kids!

Wonderful place to play and learn. It is only a stone throw from the butterfly house. The playground area is all newer. Set up by age so the littles are not trying to play with big kids around. It has a listening pipe. You can whisper into one end and someone on the other end can hear you. Then it has a planet size ratio with the sun. The wood chip pile was enjoyed by all ages. The area was clean and well kept. No broken equipment. Restroom and picnic are were clean. Fun for all.

This park has a ton of stuff to do, great shade, wonderful gathering area! I highly recommend Churches book this for live performances too.

Sertoma Park is a beautiful, well-maintained spot that’s perfect for families, walkers, and anyone looking for a peaceful escape in the city. The trails are easy to follow and connect nicely with other green spaces, making it great for biking or strolling. The Butterfly House & Aquarium next door is a wonderful bonus, and the playground area is clean and inviting for kids. Plenty of open space, shaded areas, and picnic spots make it ideal for a relaxing afternoon. On busy weekends, parking can be a bit tight, but the overall atmosphere more than makes up for it. A gem in Sioux Falls.
