Page Park has quite a bit going on. It has a playground, basketball court, baseball fields, tennis…read morecourts, a pool, a pond, and disc golf. My review is based primarily on the playground. While this isn't the best playground, I find myself here often. Located close to shopping, it's easy to stop here with my toddler when we have to run errands. On nice spring and summer days the playground and the rest of the park can get crowded. Because the basketball court and baseball fields are in such close proximity, parking can be tricky. The playground has 2 main structures, one for kids 2-5 and another for kids 5-12. There are also baby and regular swings, a spring see-saw, and some balance obstacles. My main complaint about BOTH play structures is that they are set too far off the ground. It's like the stairs are missing a step or the bottom of some of the slides are far too high off the ground. The 2-5 play structure is strange. Again, it is set too high off the ground and had steps on the interior that are too high, making them harder to navigate. It's very compact and has steep tunnels. My son rarely plays on it because it's such a strange setup. Though he isn't quite 2 yet, he is as tall (if not taller) than most 2 year olds and has no issue climbing other playscapes labeled for the same age. The 5-12 playscape is better, though it is starting to fall into slight disrepair. Some rails are getting loose, etc. It is in the "boundless" style with ramps and some things down lower to play with. This play structure is actually much easier for a toddler to navigate. There are some openings that a child under 5 could fall from but there's no need to really climb with the child. Standing close by on the ground and watching them at these openings would be sufficient. Nothing is so high that they are totally out of reach. For the older kids, there are some fun climbing obstacles and many different slides. There are always older kids at this playground, all seemingly having fun.

There's a big kids playscape with climbing and ladders. The little kids playground had a sandbox, swings, slides, tunnels, etc. There were benches and picnic tables as well. The pool and splash pad is adjacent and fenced in; to enter the pool, there is a fee. The splash pad has benches and a grassy area to put your stuff down. The restrooms were clean and there was a Little Free Library right near there. What I loved about the park was the ample amount of shade. Definitely a fun place to take the kids in the summer.

We had a very enjoyable time strolling on their trails and taking in the pretty scenery around its big pond. We saw a ton of features on the park grounds - a wood bridge over the water and a splash pad, playground and playscape where the kids were having a blast. We saw families hanging out at their grills and picnic tables, plus a Little League field, basketball, volleyball, tennis courts and a big swimming pool. The leisure and entertainment opportunities here are fantastic. What a great place to relax and enjoy!

We saw a few baseball fields, tennis courts, a dog park, lots of pretty flowers, a very nice swimming area, and took a nice leisurely stroll on a flat wide newly cut grass walking path. We didn't see a lot of people out there today, but we did see a whole bunch of butterflies, birds and a bunny rabbit perched ahead of us on the path. He skedaddled when we got close. We also heard the public address announcer for a little league game across the lake, and he was a hoot as he did his best Michael Buffer imitations as each new batter came up to bat.

I've seen all sorts of birds including a bald eagle and hawks. Mill Woods is definitely worth keeping on your park list.

While the playground is geared toward the play school age child (up to 12 years old), there is a sandbox and swings for younger children. There are 2 large playscapes.

Outside of the playground, there is a walking/running track, football and baseball field and a party pavilion. Kudos to the Town of Cromwell for such an awesome, clean and kid friendly park!
