The swing set area even has a couple larger chair-style swings for kids that may need a more structured chair for various reasons. There is a paved path winding through the park (perhaps 1/4 of a mile) along with a small pond and a little bridge. There are plenty of trees for shade, a few picnic tables and good amount of grassy open space for playing frisbee, tag, etc. The parking lot is paved with special drainage pavers to prevent/reduce flooding as well so the parking lot has stayed pretty nice without water damage.

It was a pretty hot day, but one of the nicest things is that the park is primarily in the shade. There are two main playgrounds right next to each other. There is also a baseball field, soccer field, dog park, picnic table/pavilion area, and more! The entire park is really quite large. We were just at the two parks which were perfect for the kids (ages 1.5 and 4).

Some big trees to provide shade if preferred and restroom facility there as well. This park is actually part of a large complex with a variety of options/facilities: - 3 playgrounds (one is a "musical" playground) - 6 baseball/softball fields - basketball court - skate park - concession stand (I'm not sure on their hours, though) - Turtle Splash Water Park - Wiggly Field & SouthPaw Dog Parks - 25-acre Dyer Nature Sanctuary and trail -outdoor performance venue/bandshell -3 pavilions/shelters available for rental May - September

As a mom of little ones there is always the quest to find a great park to appease all parties…read more Winding Creek Park is one of the best out there for young, really young and some middle aged parents. ;) For the wee ones the park boasts two baby swings, a smaller playset that crawlers can navigate with help, a calm sounding babbling creek, lots of clean, fluffy grass to spread a blanket on and gaze at the clouds and a path that is stroller friendly. For the elementary set there is a bigger play area with lots of spinning things(you literally, sit, stand or hang off these contraptions and spin at high speed. $50 you will take turns with your kid!), swings, a super tall slide and lots of things to climb, swing, jump, hang, slide on. The park has two baseball diamonds and the creek is pretty enough to peak creative play and maybe get a little muddy. For the adults there are plenty of benches, a picnic table under shelter, a private parking lot, no sand AND a potty! A Port-o-potty of course but in a pinch it works. One worthy note is that WCP is on the Park Districts short list of parks to rent. They put quite a chunk of change into it with the added bike path, brick paved parking lot and covered picnic area. That fact alone makes it one of the area's best parks! WCP was renovated with the new playsets a few years back and has quickly become a favorite meeting spot for playgroups from the area and from other suburbs(mom's network at play for that). So pack a picnic, bring some balls and enjoy one of the best parks out there!

For a variety of things to do, I highly recommend Mount Saint Mary Park.

Of course things have changed A LOT in the last few decades and what stands there now is a fun, clean, and accommodating playground that's enjoyed by those in the neighborhood. The park area is nestled in between like three different subdivisions, but we're lucky that the entrance pathway is accessible from our side of the neighborhood. Otherwise, you can enter through the field on the opposing side, but for those with a stroller in tow that's not entirely ideal. Aside from the playground, the park has a batting cage which is used for plenty baseball games and of course a very large grassy field. Perfect for letting the little ones run around and burn some energy! I've seen folks bring soccer balls, frisbees, and kites here as well. The playground has two seperate areas... one geared towards little ones and one side for older kids. My boys are 4 and 2 and can honestly safely enjoy the entire playground though which is nice (no scary rock walls or super high up slides they need to steer clear of). There are plenty of things to climb on, 4 different slides, swings, monkey bars, and a fun spinning cage things my boys love. I really enjoy that the park has a couple picnic tables under a pavillion. Super comfortable if you're watching the kids or if everyone's enjoying a snack. There are a handful of mature trees as well, so bringing a blanket for a picnic is always a fun options for the kiddos too!

There's something for everyone: trails, basketball and volleyball courts, a large covered picnic area, other picnic tables under the trees, and of course the building with information about the park's history (hand-crank the machine then press a button to hear a local, including long-time Naperville Mayor George Pradel, talk about their memories of the park) & the types of wildlife that can be found here (I saw a red-bellied woodpecker!) Definitely a place to check out on a nice day in Naperville!
