The Comanche municipal park is located south of Willow Avenue, between Highway 81, and Old Highway 81. This is a long, narrow grass area primarily serving as a picnic and playground area.

The coordinates above are located at an original WPA-constructed rock sign near the north of the park on Old Highway 81. This is a native sandstone pillar with heavy wood posts to the side which once held a sign.

There are quite a few picnic table which have brick support posts and concrete table tops and benches. Some are in poor condition, and some others have had their concrete tops replaced. There is a pole pavilion with a metal siding roof.

The colorful playground has swings, slides and climbing equipment. The park appears to be used frequently by local citizens.
