Deerwood Park is Evansdale's premier recreation area featuring a boat ramp on the Cedar River with a small paved parking lot (limited space for trailers).

The park offers extensive amenities including full-hookup camping, tent sites, disc golf, playgrounds, ball fields, and restrooms, plus direct access to the River Forest Road Levee Trail connecting to Cedar Valley Lakes and Nature Trails.

Note that the parking area has limited maneuvering space for large vehicles with trailers.
