Smith Ryerson Playfield

The basketball court gets a solid workout here — locals actually use it, which says something. Smith Ryerson Playfield is one of those no-frills spots in Muskegon that just works: big open grass field, room to spread out, and enough space for a proper family cookout or pickup game without feeling cramped. It’s kept up well, which isn’t something you can say about every park in the area. Good for all ages, and the kind of place that draws a crowd when the community has something going on.
