Hidden in an east side subdivision, Case Natural Resource Park ("Case Park" for short) is a gem because it is well-cared-for and blissfully quiet.
The 53-acre park features a children's butterfly sanctuary, a walking path, and a playground.
Case Natural Resource Park can be found at 9851 E Kenyon Terrace Dr in East Tucson near 22nd St & Houghton.
