Cascade Park is an Orem neighborhood park behind Cascade Elementary School with a tennis court, a basketball court, a soccer field, a sand volleyball area, two pavilions, mature shade trees, a large grassy hill for picture-taking or winter sledding, and a unique playground that includes a zipline. Pickleball use here is unofficial: reviewers note pickleball players have been using the tennis courts despite signs stating the courts are for tennis only. Plan to share or wait if you bring a portable net.
Park hours are 8 AM to 9 PM daily. The tennis courts have signs designating them for tennis only, but pickleball players have been using them anyway; expect potential conflict with tennis players. Two pavilions are reservable, with the smaller one available alongside the larger one. Bathrooms exist but reviewers report inconsistent cleanliness. The zipline play feature is a unique attraction worth noting. Parking can be tight during family events. For confirmed dedicated pickleball, head to Sharon Park, Hillcrest Park, or Bonneville Park nearby.
What locals say
“Lately the tennis courts have been overrun with pickleball players despite signs stating the tennis courts are for tennis only but this is not a reason to fault the park.”
“Just discovered this great gem of a park - the zipline is definitely a winning piece of playground equipment.”
“Great park, lots of space, cool new toys, and it seems to have it all: basketball, tennis, volleyball, soccer, hill to roll down, shade trees, and two pavilions.”
