This is one of the nicest parks I've seen. Lots of levels. Built into the natural landscape. Different types of activities for different ages. Very comfortable for the parents and grandparents as well. Plenty of places to sit and enjoy nature in the sun or shade.

An insanely good place to take your kids and let them play. Beautiful layout, tons of space, great slides and things to climb on. A real gem of a place. Great for the parents too, everything there guaranteed to have a good time.

One of the best unique playgrounds. Kids had a great time and there was so much for them to do. Bathrooms available and they were very clean.

First time taking my daughter here, we were very pleased at the size of the playground, my daughter had fun for hours. There is a lot of things to climb on and several slides both small and large, I especially loved the pumpkin designs that we're places around the area. Even if you don't live near the pumpkin patch it is definitely worth the drive, your kids will love it!.

This is a great playground that’s shaded and lots fun for kids to run around. I brought my 11 month old and enjoyed playing in the dirt, rocks and swinging on the swings.
