Also, it's very open and I can see all parts of the park so even thought it's not fenced, it just feels safe. The kids love that part of it is a tree that you climb inside. Bathrooms are close so great for potty training toddlers who have to go RIGHT NOW. There are 4 picnic tables in the pavilion, 2 drinking fountains and some sunshades with benches. We had our kids' birthday party there and it went extremely well. Super affordable to rent! The only downside is one parking lot is a flat trek to the playground but a longer one and the other parking lot is fairly close but you have to walk down a big hill and so then also back up. So anyone who is more limited with ambulation or someone who fatigues very quickly may not find this playground particularly accessible. Otherwise it is a super fun and simple playground!

We were the only ones on the playground the entire time-about an hour. Meanwhile we were able to meet a bunch of nice dogs going on long walks. Oak Tree Park pavilion is available to rent through the Brentwood Park system. It's pretty cheap ($60 for non-residents, $40 for residents). There are four picnic benches under the shelter, where the bathrooms are also located.

They had slides, swings, all your typical playground equipment, and it looks like they have a splash pad for warmer weather.

The thing I love the the splash pads they have, they weren't on while I was there but I look forward to warmer days to enjoy those. They also have a basketball court and a nice walking path to enjoy. My only reason why I didn't give this park 5 stars was because the bathrooms and water fountains were closed. I understand that a lot of parks have schedules for when they turn on water at parks but it is something on nice days that would be Convenient to be able to use a bathroom and not end my park visit early. Definitely will be returning to this park and kind of wished I lived in this neighborhood so I could walk there!

That photo opportunity is South of Forest Park & 64/40 on Oakland Ave just East of Tamm Ave) AstroTurf type surface on a shock absorbing padding covers the playground, but not the "Secret Garden" or ramps. There is a toddler area, area for "big kids" & a "secret garden" though some bushes. While overall well designed... I do not like the many entry/exits & blind spots. The best area to keep track of the big kids maybe on the top of the ramp outside the wall. With mix toddler & "big kid"... follow UnCool Dave rules & tell the "big kids" they must stay on or over the AstroTurf area.

The shade is minimal so the kids do work up some heat - beware there is no water fountain so come prepared or go in to the visitor center, they have a small cafe where you can buy refreshments. There was parking right out front of the visitor center and the park was not not crowded on a Sunday afternoon. My kids still vote Shaw Park as their most favorite place to play.
