Marianne Williams Park

Marianne Williams Park is a 72-acre riverside park in East Boise's Barber Valley, donated to the City of Boise in 2005 by Larry Williams in honor of his wife, Marianne. Part of the city's "Ribbon of Jewels" park series, it sits along the Boise River Greenbelt and features two stocked ponds, wetland areas that support diverse wildlife, and paved walking paths with views of the Boise foothills. The park offers two reservable spaces for private events: a gazebo accommodating up to 25 guests and a covered shelter for up to 150 guests. Reservations are available April 15 through October 15 each year. Boise Parks and Recreation manages bookings and can be reached at (208) 608-7600 or by email for scheduling inquiries.
