About Tibbetts Brook Park

Tibbetts Brook Park is one of the earliest parks the county built. Its aquatic complex includes a spray playground, in-pool basketball and volleyball, lap lanes, and a lazy river that gave the pool its nickname, The Brook. The Tudor-revival bathhouse and the two restored pavilions keep the park's vintage look. Visitors also find woodlands, lakes, playgrounds, a fitness area, pickleball courts, and a large lawn that hosts events. Westchester residency is required for many uses, and dogs must be leashed.
