McKey Park

About McKey Park

McKey Park is in the middle of Valdosta on Patterson Street and is home to the hugely popular Harry B. Anderson Tennis Center. The tennis center features 18 tennis courts that are used for lessons, clinics, and general tennis recreation. It also has a tennis shelter, bleachers, bathrooms and water fountains as well as a pro shop which houses the tennis pro's office. In addition to tennis, McKey Park features a sand volleyball court and two large playgrounds. A creek runs between the playground areas, with the two sides connected by a wooden bridge. Children of all ages will enjoy the park and playgrounds, which feature structures for older kids and swings for both toddlers and school-age children. The playgrounds are shaded by a canopy of oaks and have a dedicated restroom. McKey Park also features two large picnic pavilions that can each accommodate 60 people. Both pavilions hold picnic tables and grills. The benefits of this park continue with green space: a grassy field is available to accommodate youth sports practices. Plus, the park is adjacent to a lit, paved walking track. The volleyball court and picnic pavilions are all available for rent through our main office.
