I saw a cat under the wooden patio there. The bouncy mounds are fun to jump on and do parkour. The metal slide against the hill is shaded. The orange umbrellas have a cute aesthetic. There are shady areas and lots of Adirondack chairs spread throughout. The picnic tables are shaded. There's a little library nook. It was dog friendly. There's an adult workout equipment area. The bad: The sand area smelled of poop perhaps due to the cat. The water fountain down the mosaic water slide art piece didn't turn on. I had trouble finding parking so I got street parking two blocks away. The interesting:

There's also plenty of shade, lots of benches, and spots to sit. The only downside is that the bathrooms are usually closed, and the park itself is sometimes locked without any explanation. We went this Saturday with the kids and found it closed, with no sign saying why or when it would reopen. That was really disappointing.

It has a little kids playground and a bigger kids area. My toddler loved the metal tube slide. It doesn't create static and it's a really fun and unique way to slide down a hill! It reminds me of a factory conveyor belt. The playground feels modern. They also had bathrooms. They have park-style workout equipment for adults too. There's a splash pad area but I don't know when those operate. The bad: There's no designated parking lot. We parked on the street but it can be difficult to find parking because of all the apartment complex tenants.

It is almost exactly as I remember it, but with upgrades. There are more picnic areas now, the playground is up to date, most everything is maintained so clean! It was kinda cool guiding the kids to kite flying and watching them play games during the party. For a few moments there, I was back to my pre-teen self again. I was told they have festivals here once in a while, so I really should keep up with their scheduled events! I loved it then, I still love it now. Glad it's still around and still maintained so well.
