The park is a 332-acre (1.34 km2) park that features play grounds, a Disc Golf course, softball fields, golf, tennis courts, basketball courts, volleyball space, horseshoe pits, amphitheater, lodge, shelter house, and three hiking trails immersed in a thick wooded scene.

The Steyns agreed to sell the tract to the town in 1972 provided the park was named in honor of their late father, and with the stipulation that Jim "Pop" Miller (who had tended the property for many years) be allowed to remain on the property in the capacity of caretaker for as long as he desired.

The sale was finalized, with the town securing 50% of the funds from the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation.

[2] The Knob and Valley Audubon Society (KAVAS) conducted a survey of birds in 1970 in which about 45 species were found to be inhabitants and visitors to the park including species of wood warbler, flycatchers, blue heron and woodpecker birds.
