Camperdown Elm

This is an amazing park. My favorite in Brooklyn. It's great for locals or tourists looking for a rest. It's what my tax dollars pay for and I big reason I live in the neighborhood. - Lauren Dellaquila

Great outdoor concert venue for Summer nights. - Marie La Rue

Good open space with good views - Laurence Ridgwell

views are obscured by trees in the warmer months but once the trees are bare you can see to coney island - Nate Folkert

Bit of a hidden gem. Small but clean, quiet, and comfortable. Good respite from nearby loud and hectic Greenpoint. - Hotin Tong

Clear view to the statue of liberty. Awesome information on battle of Brooklyn. Worth a trip. - James C

Vanderbilt playground has a fabulous enclosed area for toddlers with a climbing structure and water feature in the summer. Excellent big spider web for older kids and decent shade. - Sandra Fransen

Every corner of Prospect Park is worth exploring, but the part closest to Windsor Terrace includes the peaceful man-made lake. Benches and small wooden gazebos dot the waterfront. - Fodor's Travel
