Very cool playground for the kids. Lots of different areas to play and nice that it’s walled off with only one entry and exit. Absolutely would recommend to anyone with kids in the area. More seating would be great! But pack some chairs and your set.

We love this park so much! We've been coming for about 10 years so before they did the remodel. The remodel is awesome so much fun for the kids to have and we love that there's a trail that goes to the skatepark from the playground my boys ride there bikes or skateboards there. Sometimes we take Little Caesars pizza and eat it at one of the tables there I love that it's dog friendly as well.

The park is really nice. There is a paved walkway around the playground. There is also a forest nature walk that is not paved. My 4 year old loved it but it definitely would be interesting for babies up until the age of 12ish for playground. The only negative is that the bathrooms are absolutely disgusting.
