My son asks me to take him to the big park with the huge castle almost everyday and I have no problem with telling him yes. We love to take a lunch and have a picnic in the grass. Then we take a walk around park. Sometimes we fly a kite or throw his toy airplane around. He really likes to drive his remote control car at the skate park there. The other kids are always welcoming to him as hes only three. They all like to get a turn driving his car too. He never fails to make new friends with the many other children.I like that there is a toddler playground as well as the three story playground for the older kids.

Love taking our grandson to this park. It is well maintained, has very nice play equipment and there are ducks, geese and sea gulls to feed. If you go, and have a child, the firefighters at the fire station next door are often caring for their equipment so be sure and go by with your kids....they love showing off their trucks and equipment to kids.

We have a big family and when we want to get together on a nice day or have a party outside, we like to go to this nice little park. We have even enjoyed a movie there in the grass before which was really nice with some of our grandbabies. Some of the things it has is a nice play area with swings and climbing things, a great pavilion which you do not need to make any type of reservation for, basketball court and even a skate park. Lots to do in not a huge area and not as crowded as the larger park in town is.

Cool park, great use of extra parking set up around the neighborhood. The skate bowl is perfect for the kids and plenty of space for walks, b day parties. Take my nephews there once a week!!

This park playground is really nice. The 3 story tower is big enough for adults to climb up which is nice if kids get scared. I have to admit I went down the slides myself. They were super fun coming down from the 3rd level. In a nice neighborhood as well we will certainly make this a regular stop.

Awesome Park! Totally surprised me actually, as it looked small and strange at first from a distance. But its designed in a way that there is slot going on. Kids playset, basketball court, tennis I think I saw, oh and get this Skatepark bowl! Grass area large enough to play and enjoy.. Restrooms were available and were managed and maintained well. Clean!I cant promise the people though. One unhealthy obese lady was screaming at kids. I think she was even there representing a Fritsch school event.Its crazy ridiculous whos allowed around our kids. Its unacceptable in my reality but I dont have kids in public school for much of that kind of reasoning.Ive seen so many horrible people with kids in public school association. Sometimes, staff, other times volunteer parents. No matter what we need accountability and...well, mental health advocacy. Nonviolent communication could help too.Eh, what was I talking about? Oh yeah.. Great Park!

I recommend bringing sun glasses! The playground equipment is in like-new condition, and provides a good mixture of activities to help wear out the kids. Bring a blanket or chairs and a book to enjoy in the nearby grass!

This is a really nice park, good skate park, good playground equipment, baseball, basketball, tennis, huge grass field, long-ish sidewalk path great for teaching my kids to skate. Very clean, good crowd. Parking is hit and miss. Its on a road that must be a popular cut through, because cars fly through there all day

Large spacious park and recreation area by Silver Oaks Golf Course. The little ones will enjoy the mini amenities including the 3 level structure and the multiple slides. All of the equipment is in great shape and well-maintained and the park is clean and kept up. In addition to its spacious open green grass areas there is also a baseball diamond and basketball courts, picnic benches and tables, walking paths and a good-sized skatepark. This park will entertain kids of all ages and adults can choose to sit back and relax or partake in the activities as the equipment is sturdy enough for them to play on too.

Love it here! So many different things for the kids to do! Only thing is there are no grills for barbecueing and there is only a port a potty and its far from everything so it has to be like a field trip to the bathroom when one kid has to go

Nice park they have the 2 biggest slides I have ever seen at a park and I had to try them because my 2 year old wanted to go down and she loved them. I gave 4 stars because the play area seems a little dangerous because of how big everything is.
