Parky's Splash Pad
Kelly H.

We recently visited Parky's Splash Pad at Woodland Mound and had a great experience! My daughter isn't quite 2 yet so we didn't have to pay but even if you do have to pay, it's only $6/child. I love that they have separate sections for 2-5 yr olds and then 5+ yr olds so the littles don't get knocked down by the big kids when it's busy. There's a snack bar and you're free to bring your own snacks as well - there are plenty of covered tables to eat at. We'll definitely be back!!

This park appears to belong to a suburban county, but is not a far drive from Cincinnati. The booth seemed to be a pretext for an entrance fee, but at least on the beautiful fall day I dropped in I was waved through with no charge (and out of state plates, so it's not like they mistook me for a local). The park includes some paved and some dirt trails, which seemed quite well kept in my observation. The hill it is on top of is quite stark and near the river, and the breeze that hits one in various places is quite refreshing. Among the more substantive amenities were a water park (probably only open during the peak of summer), an outdoor music stage, and a nature center with a small variety of animals and a deck that gives a nice view of the river below. For a local, I imagine getting the applicable parks pass would be well worth it.

Hands down, one of my favorite local parks/ frisbee golf courses! Easily accessible from Clermont and Hamilton County, this park is a gem that I have enjoyed for over 40 years. Absolutely beautiful and exceptionally maintained, I highly recommend it!!

It had been a while since we had visited Woodland Mound. When I went to check in, I was surprised to see I had yet to review it. Overall, the park and trails are well kept. There are several trails to choose from. All trails are easily accessible from the multi use trail. It serves as a loop around the park. Much of the multi use trail is in direct sun. If you plan on using it, make sure to use sun protection. The other trails are wooded. I am particularly fond of the Hedgeapple and fitness trails. Their shade shady areas make for more enjoyable hiking duning hot summer months. The Nature's Niche gift and book store is located near the playground, and inside the Seasongood Nature Center. (They share a parking lot.) It is a great place to find nature inspired art from such local favorites as Charlie Harper. Fun nature themed gifts for the kids are also available. The nature center offers educational displays, as well as activities. If you participate in the Great Park's Master Hiker or Hiking Staff programs, medallions may be purchased here. I have never utilized the golf course/facilities. Nor have I visited the banquet center. If the rest of the park is any indication, I would expect them to be in good working order as well. I have heard the golf options are top notch, and open to the public.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Woodland mounds! There is an endless supply of picnic stations throughout the park. The trails were clearly defined and moderate. The trees were tall, beautiful and plentiful. I will definitely be going back in the fall to see all of the trees change color! I also enjoyed all of the wild flowers throughout the trail. I thought it was neat how there were various workout stations throughout the trail. There's also a water park and a nice playground for kids. If you're looking for a place to picnic and go for a little hike this is a great place!! (P.s-There's also a geocache located in this park).

Disc Golf!
Will H.

Again and again I find myself drawn to woodland mound in Anderson. There are just so many things to do here... an 18 hole disc golf course, a kiddie water park play area, nature center, paved trails, pavilions, hiking trails, even a parcours trail. The park always has a decent number of people at it but I've never seen it so overrun you would be unhappy. The disc golf course is semi-wooded but the undergrowth is manageable so you can find your disc if you veer off course a lot like me. The parcours trail is wide and gravel. You could easily traverse most of it with a stroller or in a wheelchair if you can handle the hills. The equipment stations are in decent and working condition but could use minor updates. My only complaint about this park is that it is a little difficult to get to from my house, but that's not Woodland mound's fault! If you haven't already, make sure you get the $10 annual car access pass for all Hamilton county parks. Its a great deal and it supports our awesome park service. In general, everything here is decently maintained and it is a beautiful location to hangout, exercise or explore!

Woodland is tucked into the hills of the Miami valley, and could be easy to miss if you didn't know about it. If you did, though, you would know that what is available is a very large park with countless activities for everyone. Growing up going here was always fun, but not nearly as fun as it is for kids now. The park recently installed an above ground water park with tons of fun water stuff for kids to do. In the summer there are always plenty of kids there and parents have easy access to seating around to edge to keep a close eye on their little ones. For people more my age, the 18 hole Frisbee golf course, or Frolf course is a blast. Sure I'm no good, but I still enjoy trying to land my disc in a big metal basket. If you're new at it, be warned, the course is actually pretty difficult at some points. Since it's higher up you can also get a nice view of the river and there is usually a good breeze for kite flying.

Nice garden with waterfall

One of my favorite Great Parks. Not too big, not too small. Lots of friendly, familiar faces.

We've gone here ever since I was a child. I love being my child here now. A great park with many options.

This is a very nice playground but as a mom of a 3 year old, it sort of stresses me out. The space…read moreis very big and open within a gated area which provides several different jungle gyms for all ages. It sounds like a wonderful idea for older kids that can handle all heights, twists and turns. But for the younger kids, it's stressful. Why? Because what toddler doesn't want to climb 15 feet high on the smallest width ladder at the playground? Yes, there's smaller gyms for the toddlers up front but I always see the young ones running for the huge gym which just stresses me out. I'd honestly skip this park if you're with your 1-4 year old. For older kids, this looks like the real deal. It's clean, there's a big covered picnic area, swings galore. I believe you do have to pay sometimes but I really don't know. Each time I've been, the gate has been open and we walked right in. Other times, I believe they close the gate and you have to pay at the building. Highly recommend calling ahead of time or looking online. Clean, safe, fun overall!

The Playfield has always been a place to watch planes, eat lunch, play golf and…read moretennis....generally, there is the usual park offerings but the bonus is location, location, location! If the water is standing,"sunken Lunken" is a good place to watch the river rise, planes takeoff and to just "people watch". There is a bike loop, playgrounds, driving range, tennis courts, picnic shelter and a couple of ball fields. Plenty of places to park and eat your lunch. There is even a bar/restaurant and Farmer's Market on the weekends. In the old tower, you can check out their museum but get there before 2pm. Apparently, I missed it. I will be back!

I think this place keeps disappearing from Yelp, but I promise that not only does it exist, but…read moreit's totally worth a visit! There are at least three other playgrounds in the neighborhood. While it's proximity is one of its perks, I also prefer it just because it's got a lot of options for my two little ones. It's suits them both very well - one a wild four year old boy and the other only a recently walking 23 month old. They offer the parent-baby joint swing, the large plastics swings meant for toddlers, multiple climbing structures of various sizes, a little "elevator" as we've called it, a few slides a large structure that spins around. Very cool! Perfect place to come with a picnic and play. Afterwards, walk down the street for a scoop of ice cream!

It is well maintained with beautiful landscaping. I have seen the neighbors helping to keep it that way by weeding the flower beds and picking up any trash. Not that I ever see much trash. It has a charming old fashion water fountain. This past Saturday my grandkids age 2 and 4 years old really needed a drink of water. We filled the bottle up several times. There is a metal picnic table. You are surrounded by flowers as this park has so many flowerbeds. There's a long swing set with swings for everyone old & young and small and large. There are 2 jungle gyms with multiple slides, several ways to climb up and interactive activities like a telescope and metallic beads on a spinning wheel. The small curving foot pad staircase is a favorite of my granddaughter. With bars for swinging on, a beam to walk across and 2 domes for climbing on top of this park can keep the children happy for hours. The only problem might be getting them to head back home! There is only one issue with the equipment. The footpad elevator ride from the platform of the larger jungle gym to the ground is broken. The neighborhood is always nice and peaceful. Also #udf is just up the street for a treat of #icecream. I more than highly recommend this park in #northside. Until next time be kind to each other. @yelpcincy #playgrounds #cincinnati
