I had saved this park to a collection for parks that I want to take my grandkids to, based on the…read morecover photo for Yelp. I thought it looked like a nice playground. My husband and I brought our six-year-old granddaughter and two year-old grandson to play. I did not see a newer place set based on the address we went to. It was an older ship designed playset. A small playset and it was quite busy so it was crowded. The place that is for age 2 to 5. The nice thing about it is that it was completely shaded, so that was a positive. But the place that itself was older and dirty and needed to be cleaned or repainted. There was a walking park around the playset, but I never saw a newer playset like pictured in the main photo for the park. There is also a small softball field and some covered picnic tables.

Great spot in NKC for a walk, some play time for the littles, or just enjoy touching grass…read more NKC has plenty of 'hidden' gems and Macken Park is one of them. With plenty of acreage at the northeast corner of Howell & Clark Ferguson, this is a safe and serviced greenspace just waiting to be explored. The 'soft' track encircles the park if you want to get some steps, and there are great ball fields just waiting for spring to come so they can be used frequently. Tennis courts are at the east end and the restroom facilities are found on both sides of the park. Enjoy NKC's public spaces! If Macken isn't your thing, then Dagg Park is just a block or two south and has more equipment tailored to littles. Different strokes for different audiences!

Macken Park has nice trails, playgrounds, facilities, and convenient parking. Enjoy a number of…read moreFridays in the Park.

The city just updated Brookridge Park and I'm so happy to say that it underwent a big improvement…read more The new park is bigger and has great areas for both little and big kids, which is great. Now my 17 month old can go up on her own and down a little kid slide, when in the past the other playground wasn't as safe for her. It also boasts some swings a big kid slide and more. What makes this place even better is that it also has restrooms. I think they are still renovating those, but they will presumably be open soon. In addition there is a tennis court, covered picnic area, and large grassy field that would be great for playing ball. All in all this a really good park for being on the smaller side and nestled into a neighborhood setting.

This peaceful park has some nice features including a reservable picnic shelter, clean restrooms,…read moretwo tennis courts, a drinking fountain, a play area with swing sets, and an open grassy area. There isn't a dedicated parking area, but parking along 101st St provides good access. Very nice!

I enjoyed that the playground areas were on turf so the kids could go back and forth from the playground to the splash pad. There are covered shelters and seated benches. Would recommend bringing a chair or blanket just in case they are full. We were there right as it opened, so no issues. Another feature we liked is that the park is fenced in. Also, nice bathrooms!

I've only lived in Raytown for about a year, and since it's started to get warmer, I've been wanting to get out and check out the city more. Being a 'burbs kind of girl, I love parks. This particular park I thought was great! Lee Kenagy park features a large pond that is stocked and you can fish in it, as well as a walking trail that I think is about a half-mile long. It has shelters, restrooms, playgrounds, and even a small "skate park" for boarders and bladers. it's got some pretty decent ramps on it I thought, although I'm definitely not an expert on the subject. There are 4 tennis courts, and a softball area as well. As the weather warms even more, you will definitely see a lot of kids up here playing and skating!

The wide expanse of green or Fall foliage makes for some pretty shots and no one would ever know you were in a neighborhood park.

There's no dedicated parking lot, but plenty of street parking. They have swings (2 baby ones, 2 normal ones, and two round tire type swings).

They also have a little creek and walking paths behind the park!
