My girls had a blast here. The splash pad facility is so impressive. There are two huge play areas…read morewith tons of sprinklers, buckets and water tables. One area is a little bit better for smaller kids so it's nice that they have two different options. The best part about the splash pad is the reservation system. You must make a reservation online, and you have a 1.5 hour time slot. Splash pads can get packed on a hot day, so this was a great way to control the crowd. Once your time is up there's an enormous playground right next door. There is so much to see and do that you could easily spend hours here without getting bored. Overall this is a fantastic township recreation area. It's clean and well-maintained, and there are endless play options for kids.

This is one of the cleanest parks I have walked through in Monmouth County. There are trash bins…read moreeverywhere and 2.3 miles of paved trails for you and your family to enjoy. The trails are perfect for walking your furry dogs, in-line skating, cycling, easy walking and pushing strollers. There is also a repair station with a tire pump and tools found near the basketball courts. The Challenger Place has finally finished and is a designed playground for kids who are blind or visually impaired. Their sport courts include tennis and basketball courts, as well as an in-line skating rink. The athletic field is available for rental and may be used for baseball games but not for practices. I have heard they have swimming pools but I personally did not see it. Instead, I saw a spray ground (water-enhanced playground) which was to open in mid-May but given our current situation with the COVID-19 outbreak, this is doubtful for mid-May 2020 due to the pandemic restrictions. Normally, it would open mid-May through early September. I would imagine the busiest time to be there with kids is during the height of summer because summer camps are held there by the Monmouth County Park System and Challenged Youth Sports from Middletown.

I don't think very many people outside of Milltown even know this park exists…read more Located near the juncture of Milltown Road and Route 1 North, it is on a path lightly traveled except by Milltowners and those who believe Milltown Road is a shortcut to New Brunswick. It's a fairly large park when you take into consideration the soccer and baseball fields. Boasting two jungle gyms, one for littler kids, and one for bigger kids, as well as a giant rockwall-like structure designed for climbing, there's a lot to do here. There are also about 8 swings; 4 for babies and toddlers, and 4 for everyone else. Because of its location, the park gets a nice breeze, though I imagine you could really bake out here in the summer since there's very little shade to be found. Still, a nice break from all the usual spots around town.

Really nice park. Huge!!…read more I made the mistake of walking here from my house (40 minute walk one way) and by the time I made it, I was exhausted. I know, totally out of shape. My dog loved it though. Kind of close to a major highway, so it's a bit noisy. I wouldn't come here for a nice, relaxing time. It offers baseball and soccer fields, playground equipment and a rock climbing wall!! Totally wanted to try that out, but my legs were like J-E-L-L-O.

Such a great park. You have a huge open space for kids to…read morerun around and play... on this particular day, a lot of kids were out playing soccer.. Nice size playground with swings and such.. Decent amount of benches and there is a nice table under a gazebo type situation.. perfect for enjoying a lunch in the park. The best part are the trees!! I had no idea that there were many different trees planted in the park--with the added value of being able to read what kind of tree you were lucky enough to come across. I find that so dope and a great unexpected lesson in science for my LO. She found it quite interesting. And the best kept secret.. there is a butterfly park in the back of the park with seems to be a cool trail.. I was just too chicken to go since it was about dusk and no one else accompanied us. Just another reason to come back really soon!

This park is a great, safe place for families to take their kids in the surrounding neighborhood…read more Alongside the main playground area, there are water fountains, a gazebo, and seating areas below the great oak tree. There is also a cute butterfly garden adorned with colorful stones, benches, and paintings. Not much has changed since I came here as a little kid- there are still long walkways in which kids can learn how to ride their bikes, big trees to charade around, and park benches to rest on. Would highly recommend for any family or person looking for a nice place to walk and play.

The park is the best place to get your miles! That's because the park is a little more than a mile…read morewith just one walk around.

It's on the corner of two residential streets that do not get much traffic.The entire area is fenced in, and the neighborhood is safe and peaceful. The paved parking lot fits about 20 cars. The park is basically a big flat lawn with well maintained green grass, and a border of trees. You might see some deer, a rabbit, or some Canada Geese. There's also swings, slides, a baseball field, a basketball court, some picnic tables, and a pavilion. This park sometimes has a port-a-potty but sometimes does not. There is no permanent restroom facility here. I live nearby this park, and in the two decades I've been here, I have rarely seen more than 25 people in the park at once. I have only heard good things about this park from the people I know in the neighborhood who bring the kids here, and who play basketball here. The park is named to honor Patrolman Dunham and Patrolman Lebed, who were killed on duty together in 1960. Two public roads in town, Lebed Drive and Dunham Street, are also named after them.

The playground area is big, with a brand artificial turf ground and is very toddler friendly. I really do love the many options for playtime at this set up, however, the slides closets to the parking lot are a big high in height. There is a baseball/softball field and a large walking and running trial that many people come to use.
