This was my first time visiting here and I will for sure be back! This playground is MASSIVE, even though for me it seemed packed for a playground there's much room there was no problems. There are different playgrounds for kids of different ages which is awesome. There are restrooms right there next to the 2 playgrounds. There are shaded sitting areas as well as multiple shelter table areas that you could picnic at or just hide from the sun. Though they are not currently turned on during our visit there is small area with water mist toys for the summer time. My daughter's favorite part were the multiple zip lines and a good amount of swings she never had to wait. It definitely seems to me to be a great place to look for birthday parties. My only downside is the water fountain is in direct sunlight and is scalding hot. I highly recommend bringing your own drinks.

Very nice park. Geared towards kids as there are several play sets there and other things to do. I'm surprised to see 2 types of zip line type rides. The splash pad appears to be 3 spray rings. If there were ground sprays, they were not working when I was there. All in all a nice place for kids.

Nice playgrounds, clean, working restrooms. Places to sit in the shade for adults. 2 issues: the 2 slides with rock wall in the middle; no easy access for parents to get to bottom and it runs into the parking area. Unsafe from security point. With child trafficking, kidnapping so prevalent I'm shocked this design idea was approved. The kids slide down to bottom where someone could easily snatch them and drive directly out. Either fence it in or install steps on either side of slides...both. if you have different ages children and one wants to play on the little playground and the other on the big kid playground, it's impossible to watch both at once.

Very nice park that has been around for quite a while. The playground has been heavily renovated and is very nice for family events or outings. The disc golf course and baseball fields are well kept. Any time I can find on the weekends, I definitely try to come play this course. It will challenge you with all the trees in the fairway.

Such a cool park/playground/spray pad/ball park. There's something for everyone. Lots of climbing apparatus. Bathrooms are decent and open until 8pm or dusk when the park closes. Really reat facility all around.
