Please don't litter! This place is awesome! There's like 9 parks in 1. you can take your family dogs on a hike. The park created a pathway with concrete. This makes it nice for people to bring strollers, bikess, scooters , etc. Next to the pathway, there's a small creek to educate Littles about conserving our bodies of water. If you get hot. Cool off with a snow cone from the food truck! Parking can be a little chaotic. There's definitely packing in the back of the park.

This park is absolutely incredible. We were visiting the area and googled park and we were so impressed! There truley is so much to do for every age, size, and capability. They have so many areas we didn't even visit them all. I was very impressed with the race track as well as the store fronts. My girl was way too occupied, running around on the train and the other play structures to even notice them! I really loved the woodsey area dedicated to monkeying around as well as the music station. I wish there were more parks like this! However, for how large this park is, the parking is limited. I was actually really surprised how small the lot was and had to drive around for a while before a spot opened up. Many other cars were parked illegally along red lines. That being said, for how many people there were, none of the areas felt overcrowded, and we didn't have to wait to use any equipment.

This place is heaven for kids. All sorts of various activities. A bike area setup like a little town with reproductions of local stores, shops, facilities, with fake roads, functioning crosswalks, and more. All the buildings have educational content inside and out. Very cool. Play areas range from standard playground equipment, to more natural logs and rocks. Everything is also setup fairly safely, with specialty equipment for those who have accessibility concerns. There are fully functioning, independent, and genderless restrooms. It was incredibly busy today, but it never felt crowded. They had Kona icee trucks parked outside today, too! No concessions or vending machines - bring your own water and snacks. It's free to get in!

I got to take the kiddos to this fun park and they loved it. Despite it being in the height of summer, there were plenty of shade structures placed up over the majority of the attractions. Speaking of attractions, this place has it all..from play sets for various age groups to musical instruments to be played to a full small scale town with local shops and businesses represented there. There is also a dedicated veloway race track where kids can ride their bikes with no obstructions. Great park!
