There were also a couple of summer camp groups.

One of the best parks/playgrounds we have been to in Seattle! It truly has everything and space for…read moreeveryone! A huge field upon which you can play soccer/futbol, throw a frisbee, practice your t-ball skills and simply run around! A playground with expansive play structure (in wood and plastic) for older and/or more adventurous kiddos, as well as a smaller one for the smaller ones in your party. The park also offers a small sandpit under the cover of a shelter. All of this AND a wading pool (open Sunday's and Monday's from noon until 7:00 thought the summer 2019)! It's truly a little known gem of a park and one we will be sure to return to!

Our daughter is two now and she LOVES this place. Huge slides, lots of things to climb, good neighborhood, wide open grass space.

The large sandbox is full of toys, trucks, cars, etc. that kids are welcome to use during their visit to the park. Plastic slides and more are available in the field that makes up the park. It's often crowded, as a small park can be, and very few if any are masked (even at the height of the pandemic). But it's a sweet spot for a quick break as you wander the neighborhood.

Pros: - Great views of Mount Rainer (on clear days)…read more- Kids will love the playground in the lower park - Pickleball and basketball courts (limited) Cons: - No shade trees for hot days (in upper park) - Not enough picnic tables - Dogs are supposed to be leashed, but locals (and non locals) let their pets roam freely in a corner of the upper park. It's inconvenient if you want to set up volleyball nets or play frisbee. :-(

There is a huge loop for joggers and strollers and inside the loop is a huge grassy area for picnics and folks with dogs. The two parts of the park are separated by a set of stairs. Near the public restrooms near the playground is Noah's Butterfly Garden which is a cute little section. I've always driven by this park but have never visited until now, and I might have to continue coming back because it's very nice.

It is some steps aways for the parking lot and playground but not that far. Part of it is under a tree, giving it perfect shade on those hot days. I think there are only 2 benches side by side, but you can always sit down on a concrete part near the pool. In fact, it was the perfect spot when the ice cream truck came on the street behind it and played it's song. We ran towards it. It was the perfect treat for the summer...and by the pool! Great for kids. They even get card now a days :D Very friendly families so kids can play with each other and share toys :)

My grandparents bought land in this area (Wedgwood) in the 1940s and built their own house. The…read moreland and house is still owned by family and the Dahl Playfield is a nearby field of choice when going for a walk from the house. When my mom was growing up this was a playfield she visited. In my lifetime, the Dahl Playfield has been a place I have visited for sports and as a place to go and meander and/or play with my family. The playfield is much greener than it used to be, the wading pool has remained the same. The skate park is a relatively new addition. It is not a park where I have felt unsafe in my visits. In my experience the fields, trails, wading pool, and playground have all been well maintained. There is a parking lot where you can park your vehicle if driving to the park on the 25th Avenue NE side of the park. My mom and my most recent visit to the playfield on 23 June 2020 after visiting the Wedgwood house we walked through the park and reminisced about how it has changed over the years. Lots of kiddos when we visited, tis the summer season though.

I competed and practiced at Twin Ponds Park when I was growing up for soccer, back when the soccer…read morefield was made of dirt. The dirt field was fun as it allowed us to adapt our soccer skills to different natural conditions (standing water on a dirt field, inches thick mud, loose dirt, and dirt hard as pavement because it froze in 20 degree Fahrenheit weather after a rain). The times the dirt froze helped up become more conscientious runners on the field, especially in regards to how we would run so our feet would not catch on the frozen dirt. Aside from the soccer field, there is grass area to warm up, walk around, or take a picnic. A trail system winds around the two ponds. On my visit today, Wednesday 26 July 2023, I saw geese, ducks, a great blue heron, a few small blue dragonflies, and gray squirrels. The restroom building had running water and soap. Parking was abundant as it was quiet, on days we had soccer games it could fill up quickly.

Now because there's a pond or lake next to the field there's a great possibility of losing your $150 soccer ball when it flys into the lake. Come on the least you could do is put up nets to avoid ball loss or drowning. On a positive note there nice new field turf down on the ground. Fake grass is amazing to play on. Also a short distance away is Jerseys Sports Bar for after game nacho's & beers.

Park is big. there is a play ground, swing set, walking track, large field, and a covered area with tables & benches. Bathrooms were surprisingly clean considering this is a public park.
