Really nice park in metro Detroit - there's something for everyone here. In the front, there's…read moreplenty of play structures/areas for kids of all ages. There's also a covered pavilion and lots of benches/picnic tables throughout. Dogs are allowed on leashes so you can include the whole family - even the fur baby. There is also a nice pond and water feature to walk around, and nature trails in the back. They have some fun lawn games to play near the pond too. One trail has a bridge that connects all the way to the green space on the other side of the Clinton River. My personal favorite is the pond with turtles that you can find lounging on logs on sunny days. There's even a kayak launch and other access points into the Clinton River. Tons of wildlife to view - we've seen plenty of deer, chipmunks, squirrels, turtles and cool birds. There is on-site paid parking (and free overflow across the street) but otherwise the park is free, which is really nice. I always see workers riding around in a golf cart emptying trash, making sure the park is clean. They even have bathrooms and a kona ice truck that I've seen on weekends. What more could you want?

I was there tonight - the place was overgrown with weeds, restrooms overflowing with trash, and no soap. Come on Rochester Hills, has your ego gotten to you?

This is a great place with lots of well built solid play structures and swings that will excite any child. The city of Brighton has done a really good job of building and maintaining this play park and the location being in the center of downtown is walking distance to all the wonderful business that this city has to offer. Nothing like taking the small ones out to play and burning some energy off before sitting down at one of Brightons nice restaurants for a bite to eat which is exactly what we do when we go here!

This review is specifically for the Dragon's Den playground and nearby bathroom facilities…read more Dragon's Den is one if the largest playground structures we've visited. My little one is 5 and it is rated for ages 5-12. This structure has several slides, swings, rock walls, monkey bars, and other "challenges". My son had a great time, but was definitely timid at times. This is a great structure for him to grow and learn. There is also a playground specifically for those in wheelchairs, etc. I love to see the inclusive design to allow all children to enjoy the playground. Nearby, is a pavilion with indoor bathroom facilities. They are very clean and well-kept.

The pavilion area is able to accommodate large groups. There are bathroom facilities on site versus Porter potties. I was very impressed by the maintenance and park amenities. I can't wait to be back with the family.

There are so many structures for kids of all ages! My only criticism is that it's not enclosed, although it looks like the dinosaur one under construction is completely enclosed. There's no shade in the play structures but honestly, they're so cool that a bunch of them have covered areas. There are some trees surrounding the play area so maybe bring a blanket to lounge on while your kids play.

The recent updates are very nice but it is an absolute and total failure on behalf of the City counsel to price any sand all entertainment out. I have yet to see a concert there since the updates, the weekly car show along with Sunday concerts were a long standing tradition and fantastic. It is a shame to see the park theater empty of any entertainment like it used to be. Make the price affordable or free to use, after all it is tax dollars that paid for it.

This…read morepond is one of the focal points for downtown and is adjacent to Main street and its restaurants and shops. Integral with this park you will find a very nice large children's play area with multiple wooden structures, Outdoor fire pit, Veterans memorial, and outdoor concert area. Overall it is a very nice and well thought park that really adds a lot to downtown Brighton and is a great example why this small city is so desirable and a destination spot for spending a day or nite downtown. One of my favorite things to do when visiting my son who lives downtown is to walk to Mill Pond with my grandkids, let them play at the park and end up eating lunch there and/or getting them ice cream. Makes for an excellent and memorable day!

Admission is free, and there are so many great learning materials for parents who love teaching their kids hands-on. We spent most of our time at the nature center, where the kids got to see a rabbit(you can pet it),turtles, birds, snakes, fish, rats, and more. They even have a bee hive on display, which was a huge hit. This place is ideal for kids! The staff is extremely friendly. They even allow you to touch some of the animals. There's so much to see and learn. After exploring the nature center, we headed to the playground, and they also have trails if you want to get some fresh air and walking in. My three kids had an amazing time, and we didn't have to spend a dime to make it happen. Highly recommend for families, schools, and homeschoolers alike!

There is a bathroom and few park benches. There is a very large open grass field that could probably used for various purposes.

It's worth checking out if you live close or happen to be in the area.
