Crushed stone trails provide access to the majority of the park. The large wetland south and east of the lake typically contains the most bird activity. There is a wooden boardwalk over part of the wetland that can be accessed from the trail at the east end of the lake. There is a smaller wetland north of the lake and east of the baseball field.

Named after Al Lease, who was actively involved in Kent Youth Baseball this thirty-one-acre park is located on the west side of Kent off Silver Meadow Boulevard.
Extensive landscaping gives this park a mature appearance. One of the most attractive passive recreation areas is a wooden walkway leading through a wetlands area to a large gazebo. Quiet observers can glimpse deer and pheasants that live in the area.
A four-acre lake has been stocked with shell cracker, large-mouth bass, and channel catfish. There are four picnic shelters in the park as well as a number of individual tables.
Al Lease Park has a regulation soccer field, baseball diamond with a grass infield, basketball court, volleyball court, and two playground areas.
The park has permanent restroom facilities, a one-mile looping Hike and Bike Trail, and a 20-car parking lot.
