Amazing park! It has lots of space, it’s quiet, multiple sections, kid friendly, family friendly, and overall has a quiet serenity about it. Such a great place to spend time with the kids!

Great playground, new, well equipped with new slides and swings and climbers and music and color tools, there’s bathrooms and multiple sets of playgrounds for different ages. Soft foam flooring just missing the water sprinklers and water drinking fountains

Great playground. The zip line is a little difficult and you need to have a designated adult or teen to help little ones 5-9 year olds) to get on and off. The bathrooms are portapotties. Ugh.
