It has nice bridges, slides and labyrinths for various ages. We liked the swings too. There's a dedicated 2-5 yrs play area. It's surrounded by fence for kids safety. CONS: The visual appeal is not well maintained. Paint is faded and chipping away. Many tiles cracked or missing. Sand boxes are nearly empty. Playground needs some face lift. Overall, my daughter enjoyed it

I brought my 2 year old and 4 year old. You'd still have to watch out for them but the older kids didn't seem to mind them. There are red picnic tables for snack time. Lastly, there is parking next to the park - I'm estimating the lot could hold about 20 cars. But if the lot is full, there's street parking too.

This park is fun to ride and has a fairly private feel, as it is away from busy streets and nestled under I-76 next to the Skuykill river.

They have a great field for baseball. Please note, Freehold Little League is held here so if there is a game, parking will be hard. They also have many playgrounds for kids. They seem to have themed playgrounds so that if you are meeting other parents, just say, "we'll convene at the blue or pirate ship playground" and everyone will find it. They have a fenced in skateboard ramps for tweens and up which I personally think is a fabulous idea. The ramps are spaced and curved only for skateboards. Longboards should definitely stay only on the paved paths where they belong. Speaking of trails, their trails are mixed between paved and dirt. You can safely go on a light walking trail here either solo or as you are walking your dogs. They also provide a few stations with plastic bags for the owners to clean up after their dogs. They also have basketball courts, dog runs, picnic areas, a spray ground on hot summer's days and my favorite, a sports field with obstacle courses. Perfect for the bigger kids with lots of energy and to build coordination. I went in March where things are just somewhat starting to bloom. I can only imagine the splendor in late June where everything will be fully bloomed and the grass will be lush. I look forward to revisiting this park, especially when it's Freehold Township Day where there will be plenty of fireworks, rides and the Vets car show!

This skatepark near the Art Museum was conceived in 2002, and brought to fruition in 2013. It was…read moremade from unutilized space, and is now accessible from another city project, the Schuylkill River Trail. I saw kids get on Regional Rail in the 'burbs, and be able to access this park via Schuylkill River Trail from 30th Street Station. It was great to see this so available to urban and suburban kids alike. I didn't see any posted rules, so I assume this was okay, but a group of kids on bikes were occupying one area, doing various tricks, while two other noticeable areas were available for skateboarders. It was very fun to watch everyone doing their stuff. There is graffiti all over the ramps and flat space. It is contained to the skatepark, so I'm guessing they gave a paint party to make it look authentic? Either that or our city graffiti artists are respectful of trail vs skatepark boundaries. My only complaint was it seemed overgrown. There are no grass patches growing through cracks in pavement or anything like that (I saw no cracks anyway), but the planting beds were straggly, and just really overcrowded with uncultivated sapling trees and weeds as big as bushes. If it were spring, allergies would be going haywire. All in all a great use of greenspace. It's just really in need of landscapers.

There is also private hitting, pitching and fielding lessons also. Great prices. We have been using that facility for over 2 years now and my son is also part of the owners 15 u JERSEY STATE BOMBERS TEAM. The owner of that travel club is more knowledgeable than 10 other guys you could think of combined. We did the research and he was a standout in high school and was more of a standout in college. He was drafted to an MLB TEAM and can bring your son to the next level as he did mine. I would HIGHLY recommend this place and joining this TRAVEL baseball team. This is your final stop to being a better ball player than what you are now. Call ASAP and get your sons involved now. He has younger teams also. Girls softball training as well. Call or get over there !!!!!!! You won't be disappointed. Frank in Marlton New Jersey
