There's a lot of areas for imaginative play - little forts, climbing wall, train etc. plenty of shade and picnic tables too. There's no bathroom but there is a port a potty if you're desperate. The only downside is there's no parking lot so you have to park in a side street and walk across a busy street to get there. Would still recommend!

Between appointments, I noticed the sky shifting colors and knew exactly where I needed to be. The public parking here is a game-changer--conveniently nestled between the beach and the shops, something you don't see much of in the surrounding cities. What I love most is the balance--there's so much to do within a block, yet the park still attracts plenty of people, like me, who just want a quiet moment to reflect. Ten minutes wasn't nearly enough to take it all in--the view, the ducks, the energy. Next time, I'm staying longer. And yes, I'll be back with some bread... because I'm that guy.

I found Totem Lake Park, and it was such a beautiful surprise. The park has an amazing playground, plenty of benches and grassy areas to sit and bask in the sun, and lovely walkways surrounded by trees, plants, and birds. It felt like a little sanctuary tucked away in the city -- calm, refreshing, and full of life. After lunch, I took a stroll through the paths and soaked in the sunshine. It was crisp but bright, the perfect fall day. Everything was clean and well-maintained, including the restrooms. There's also easy street parking and wonderful views of the lake. Such a peaceful spot -- I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

There are no official children's play area, though there are some natural stones for climbing in a separated area (see photo).
