A big park with lots of variety for plying. There is a sand pit, and a little kid playground as well. There was one shelter with picnic tables underneath it. I do wish they had more shade coverings for the play areas. Also, many of the individual play items were gated off. There was plenty of parking availability in their lot. We would return to play during cooler months.

Really nice and clean park. There's plenty of parkings. It is part of the rowlett community. It has restrooms and picnic area. It also have a walking trail. The park has lots of trees so it is shaded. There's chairs for parents to sit while watching the kids play. Definitely will come back.

This is one of my kids favorite parks. My kids favorite thing at a park is monkey bars, and this park has a really good, long monkey bar area. There are slides, separate area for smaller kids/toddlers, and a fun sand pit with a dinosaur and it's like you're digging for dinosaur bones. We make the drive from Mesquite bc we like it so much.

We met some people at a local park and was told to come here. So glad we did. My son loves this park. It's big, spacious and has a sand/digging spot for the kids. My son loves the zip line that they have. He always meets a new friend everytime we go to the park. They even have a space for the younger kid to play. The watermark next door looks like fun. Will be gong there next week.

The city of Rowlett needs to step up and maintain their park. The sand pit is a joke - there is literally more sand outside the pit than in it. No exaggeration. The dinosaur structure stands on a massive metal base that takes up the whole center of the pit. And because there’s hardly any sand in the pit, the hard metal base is exposed, which is a hazard to little kids. Speaking of hazards, let’s talk about the many rips, holes, and uneven spots in the rubber matting they use. Is there some reason you couldn’t stick with the wood chips?? You got rid of natural wood chips, and replaced it with a rubber mat, which looks seriously ghetto and trashy with as many holes and rips as it has. If you’re looking for a nice park for your child to play at, this place isn’t it.
