Stephen Decatur Park consists of approximately 21 acres and offers picnic and playground facilities and tennis and racquetball courts. A pavilion is available for rent for organized events. Stephen Decatur also has a nature pond and trail.

Stephen Decatur Park has long been a gathering place for many groups, families, and individuals, with certain groups returning on an annual basis. The Park has hosted the Berlin Fall Festival for over 30 years and, in the past decade, an African-American Heritage Festival has been held in Stephen Decatur Park several times.

The playground facilities include approximately a dozen pieces for use by the over 5 age group and a tot-lot for the 2-5 age group. Many of the playground pieces were replaced in 2005 through the Community Parks and Playground program.

Huge park with options for all! There’s a really nice fenced in area for littles (ages 3-5?) that gives you some peace of mind while your child plays on the equipment. There’s at least four other areas for older kids. Swings, slides, cars to ride in, and more! 10/10 would recommend and will be returning.

This is a great place to play tennis, disk golf, or just have a picnic. It's usually quiet and it's only a short 5 minute walk from downtown Berlin. You can get a workout and then get ice cream... or get ice cream and then go to the park. It's great!

Cute park with lots of playground equipment, tennis courts and an exercise path. Porta potty’s only but pretty clean park in general.
