Full disclosure- When I was 10, my dad was involved in rotary and helped get this park built. We (my siblings and I) helped build it as much as 10, 8 and 5 year olds could, so we have an attachment. That said, it remains an amazing little park!
It's located a little over a mile from Sarg Hubbard park and about half a mile from El Mirador (the closest restaurant). It's a delightful little walk along the greenway path! If you're a fan of flat, nicely paved ground, with plenty of foliage, a lovely river running past and the occasional deer, this walk is for you!
The park itself was donated entirely and constructed by volunteers about 25 years ago. It's got everything a kid could want - slides, bridges, stuff to climb on, high towers to look out, chains to balance on, swings, tires and small little labyrinths! You can run around or just climb all over! The place has one way in and one way out, which corrales everyone nicely.
The place has definitely been used over the past 2 decades, but has plenty of miles left. There's good spots for parents to sit and observe or plenty of room to actually run with the kids, wherever your fancy!
If you're looking for a good family outing spot, this one needs to be on your list! read more
