St. George City Park | Cottonwood Cove Park

Some Facts about the St. George City Park

The St. George City Park, which is the Cottonwood Cove Park, is a seven acre community park that is situated next to the Santa Clara River. The park was established and was dedicated during the summer of 2008, although planning for the park started around the mid 1990s.

This park is very close to the Las Palmas condos.  It’s located just at Canyon View Drive and Dixie Drive right before you drive up the steep hill to get to the Las Palmas condos.  This is a great convenient place to play volleyball, let the kids run around, and have a big family gathering.

A portion of the planned park project was the BLM property, wherein the city has collaborated with BLM in order to obtain such portion of the land. The Cottonwood Cove Park features plaques that depict the events that took place during the 2005 flood incident. Most of those home properties that were washed out due to the flood were situated right in front of the river that is from the park.
