During the float season the park features a rental concession, shuttle service, air compressor stations, and a snack shack. The park also features the Barber Park Education and Event Center, the Boise River Greenbelt pathway and a variety of other trails, wildlife habitat areas, a huge black cottonwood forest, a playground area, picnic shelter and tables, BBQ grills, a basketball court and a fishing pier.

Amazing location for an all staff event! Would be great for a wedding reception. Only complaint, they have no serving equipment to use so bring your own (or maybe if you pay for, you'll get it).

Beautiful park and the value is in the event center. Ran by the city, the Barber Park event center is the best value event space in the Treasure Valley. Complete with quality audio/visual tech, this event center is ready for any event. After checking pricing, you’ll end up saving at least 25% on venue costs compared to budget venues, +50% savings compared to others with as beautiful setting as this. Sure, there are some stipulations in using this event space, but every venue has that. As for the park, gorgeous. Wildlife everywhere, it’s the spot to start floating the river and a great day-use Park.

Loose dogs. Rude dog owners don't control dogs. Too bad, because it's a beautiful park.

Barber park is a good clean but busy area where you launch boats to float the Boise River
