Description

Located West of I-270 Off Marshall Road

Greentree Park is situated along the Meramec River off of Marshall Road. The park features a picnic shelter, radio controlled car track, boat ramp, and lighted soccer and football fields. The location along the Meramec River offers recreational opportunities unavailable in other parks. However, due to its close proximity to the river, the park is subject to seasonal flooding. The radio controlled car track is currently operated by the Dirt Burners radio Controlled car club.  The park also features a mile long stretch of the Meramec River Greenway Trail, and connects to additional trails in neighboring Simpson Park, operated by St. Louis County Parks and Recreation.
