Beautiful grounds and a well kept park. Like others say, you can wander around for hours and not see the same thing. Rent a bike and have even more fun.Dont be surprised if you smell something funny coming from the bushes. Gotta love Cali!

Fantastic Park. Unique structures for kids. this park seems to be the centerpiece of the Chicago Park District. Its clean well-maintained and safe. Theres something for all ages and also water attractions to keep cool during the hot days. There is an area devoted towards climbing and rollerblading. Rentals are available in the building in which you register. Public transportation is great here and there are parking options with several garages.

My first trip to San Francisco was amazing! My partner wanted to celebrate his birthday so we took a quick trip to the West Coast to visit friends. Ive traveled many places in my life but SF had one of the most picturesquely places Ive ventured. Golden Gate Bridge Park offered unparalleled views of nature. From the beautiful bay, to sea lions, whales, and a BEAUTIFUL sunset. We walked along a trail which wound its way around the beaches. We saw many people walking their dogs, exercising, boo-loving, and just having a really good time. If you are in the area I highly recommend going.

Such a nice peaceful park. Great place to go for walks. Theres a large playground inside and picnic areas throughout.

Great park with lots to do. Many areas for the kids and adults to get list in and enjoy. From a large rock climbing wall area, enclosed skate track, mini golf, smaller water features to cool off in, and loads of play sets. Also great area just to stroll around. Park district employees are on site to watch over and help out. Very friendly place to visit.

Loved the play area and had a truly wonderful time with the kids. I gave it 4 stars though because the bathrooms were across the park from the playgrounds and directions to them were not clearly marked. It was quite the stressful run when my toddler said he had to go potty. It would be much nicer if there was even just a single family bathroom in the playground area, especially since you want to change kids in and out of suits to use the splash pad.The area was clean, the equipment well maintained, the security staff very kind, and the grounds were beautiful. I would highly recommend visiting this park.

Maggie Daley Park has such a wonderful space for kids, and adults alike! There is an area with slides, rope climbing, and more accessible at no cost. There is also a very reasonably priced mini Golf area that is loads of fun for the entire family!For those who love to exercise in the morning,this park’s walking path is vast as Maggie Daley, Grant, and Millenium Parks are connected. Being able to walk through all the parks and have a diverse experience proves helpful for motivation! The scene is always changing! I found myself stopping to look at the many gardens, play area and stages!! It’s steps away from the lakeshore so the breeze is soothing for runners and walkers alike!Great for the entire family!

Roller blading, climbing, slides, and water fountains. Lots of shade and seating could be a little better. The Hot dog stand has the best chili, onion cheese dogs. Lemon ice is good too.

I love the hidden serenity from the city just a block away. Great walking path, well kept, gorgeous views of my favorite things (city, water, park). There is a kids playground, rock wall climbing, vendors and a few other things scattered throughout.

This is my favorite park in the city... OK, its because I can walk there in about 3-5 min flat. But it is really a great place to take the dogs for a walk, play a game of tennis, run, or play/watch a game of baseball. The park is fairly large and has a few baseball diamonds, tons of room for soccer, a nice playground (currently being renovated), a few nature preserve walks, tennis courts, and a football stadium with a track (open to the public when games are not being held).There is tons of parking on the side streets surrounding the park and a small lot off Damen.

One of the best parks in the city! There is lot of stuff to do. I usually visit the park with my family and we spend great time together by doing many fun stuff. My son likes climbing very much here so he always want to visit here.

Being near Maggie Daley Park is one of the true pleasures of living in Height-Ashbury. It seems like there is always something interesting and fun going on there, and I take the kids to the main playground or the one in the panhandle most weekends.

Probably a great place to visit didnt actually go there pass-through Millennium Park Grant Park and set at the dock

The best urban park! I love all the climbing. It is really meeting gross motor skills development! It is also beautiful. I love seeing the skyscrapers peak through the trees. I also love that the park is segmented into various small, can keep your eyes on kids areas. Though I will also add it felt very safe.

It looked cool from the outside, but it is currently closed due to Covid, so we didnt get to explore ourselves.

Incredible park. One of the best Ive seen. Our 4 year old had a blast on each different section. Make sure you go all the way through, there are bigger and better types of equipment. There was a splash park as well, small enough for younger children. Highly recommend.

Great place to take your kids if you want to show them an epic playground. They have ice skating in the winter and mini golf during regular warm season. Each hole has an iconic Chicago representation like the Sears tower or the bean ♡ Also grab coffee, tea or hot chocolate off Michigan ave ♡ & enjoy a nice walk around the park with your best friend or the love of your life ♡ ....or stop and take a seat near lake shore drive and watch the fireworks on a beautiful summer night ♡ Welcome to sweet home Chicago ♡

Beautifully landscaped for a stroll, a picnic or playground time. Iconic views of the city or the lake. You cant take a bad photo here!

It really is a great park. Downside is parking ! Parking is outrages if you cant find city street parking.Park-love how the ages are posted on signs for playground letting you know where the best place to let children play.

Great place for a family visit. Lots of activities closed right now but still nice for a walk or a ride.

This was an excellent place to let the kids play while the adults unwind. There was lots to do. Slides, forts, climbing structures, and swings.

I loved it was my first time there and I live in Chicago I was surprised at how nice the area was had a nice walk around the whole park.

Great place to visit. Just decided to take a stroll through the park while we were downtown. Cute ice skating area with rock climbing and a park for kids to play in. Theres an amphitheater too.

Maggie Daley Park is by far the best outdoor kids play area in downtown Chicago. There are activities and play areas for every age group. The playground is free, but some of the other activities, such as mini golf, costs money. The weekends are very busy, so the earlier you get there the better. Also, if you have furry friends, you might want to leave them at home, this park doesnt allow dogs.

Great family friendly park. The rock climbing is excellent for kids of all levels from beginners to expert. The staff are very helpful. There are so many kid friendly activities with equipment rental and there are also great tot lots for toddlers to have independent playtime. In the summer there’s water play areas for young kids. Overall a great family park.

This is a premier children’s park. World class with activities for every age and ability. Green spaces, swings, fountains, skating rings, slides, places to explore, and altogether delight for kids ages 1 to 80 years old!! If you don’t find an activity that you enjoy here, check your pulse for a beat!

Amazing views.Open fields.Picnic tables with a view.The lake breeze.Play areas that incorporate creativity, climbing, and exploring.Those nest swings Occasional yoga class takeovers

Went skating on the ribbon today and had a good time. FYI for people bringing their own skates, its still free but you need a bracelet before getting on the ice. I dont recall this in the past so it must be a new rule starting this season.

Incredible city park. Lived in Chicago 15 years ago and was recently back for a short visit with my wife and two young kids. The city has done an amazing job with the park. The kids LOVED the large playground. Its clean, creative, and beautiful. If you have kids, dont skip out on a visit to this park.

This park is still stunning even in winter. There are many interesting parts in the park, I even had to go there 2 days in a row after finding out that it has an ice rink and I didnt find it on the first day. The ice rink is huge.

Had a great time with my family and friends. Jacqie and David and Jaylah and Lele and Bella and Tiatian and Leti and Elivis

Incredibly entertaining for the kids! The view and sights are fascinating along with lovely gardens in between all the play areas. As a parent I truly enjoyed this park as well.

This is a fun place to take your kids. Surprisingly it gives you a secluded feel although located at the heart of the city. My 6 year old had a great time and at times I felt envious not having a place like this while growing up. This is a big and busy place though and at times it was difficult keeping track of your kids.

But, open park with climbing walls, skating routes and open spaces to lay in the grass. A great way to spend the day relaxing in Chicago.

Fantastic photo opportunities! Beautiful area located right in heart of downtown. The winter time is my favorite time to go because of the ice ribbon. Maggie Daley Park is a really cool park for people of all ages!

Rather empty and closed Park only had scooters and trampoline available. My children still enjoyed themselves. Overall 5/10

Chicago’s amenities are overall very impressive. Also for families/kids. This park is outstanding! My boys could spend their whole day here.

VERY very discouraged that its not fully open. But it felt good to sit on a bench outside, on a really Amazing day {weather wise}. Im going to have to practice my mini-golf for next time.

Great views, fun activities. New(ish) park is pretty fun and kind of adult sized. Mini golf is a great addition during the warmer months. The ice path in the winter is such a great idea and it’s a great place to just go for a walk.

Lots of room to run around, climb and slide. Kids will love it.

This is a beautiful park for kids to be kids. There are a lot of things to do here and it keeps the kids happy. The playgrounds are nicely built and are very catchy.

Kid focused. Age appropriate at every age! Fun for the kids and parents. Beautiful park with lots of elevation changes. Also very handi-capable accommodating.

A definite family friendly and tourist friendly place to visit while in Chicago. The location cant be beat as well as the incredible park options. Extremely clean and safe for all who visit Chicago. I recommend paying a visit next time your in the city.

Super fun park! Large slides and play structure. Stuff for kids if all ages.

Awesome creative park. Kids love this park. They love to go on the tree house slides, rock climbing , swing and many others. It’s perfect when there is a concert and you can take your kids for some fun

Beautiful park in downtown Chicago with great views of the city and a few hidden gems like mini golfing, an ice skating ribbon, tennis courts, and rock climbing walls. Maggie Daley Park is a great place to take kids in the summer, and provides fun for folks of all ages all year round. Take a walk through Maggie Daley Park on your way to the Bean and drink in the city along the way.

Beautiful park with several fun options--from climbing, mini golf, or a large playground in the summer, to ice skating in the winter. Not far from either Millennium Park or the lakeshore, it has a beautiful view of the city and the water. It also has a nice (flower) garden that was enjoyable to walk through.

Fun place for kids. Has lots of little tucked away features which makes you get up and follow the kids from place to place

This park in downtown chicago is beautiful and has lots if things for kids to do.

What an awesome park for kids to play, run around and get all their energy out. The city planned and laid out three park perfectly in a good amount of space. There are lots of playground equipment, roller/ice skating rink, rock climbing and splash pads.

Went ice skating and it was so much fun! Definitely a great price ($14 for skate rentals) and its free to skate for as long as you want. Love that they have the rail; makes it a great place for beginners who want to learn. There a lot of other activities as well but it was too cold the night we went.

Maggie Daley Park is awesome! I like going ice skating here in the winter. Def the best ice skating rink in Chicago. There is some slight terrain so you can get some speed going downhill. There are railings along both sides too for people who are still learning how to skate. The lines can get very long, but if you have your own skates, you dont have to wait in line to rent skates. They also have a fast pass that you can buy to skip the line (but when its busy, it might not save you that much time). In the summer the park has a climbing wall and a huge park for kids. Its so much cooler than the old Daley Plaza - we used to skate at when I was growing up. Check out their Twitter page before you go or on warmer days to make sure that the ice rink is open.

Wide open and perfect for my kids to get out and stretch their legs! And very beautiful and clean!

It is a amazing place to take your children in the summer there is water parks it is lovely it is also a very big park unlike other parks. I will definitely come back this year. Awesome experience love it!

Its best place to experience ice skating it is also opportunity to have some good photos but i dont like how crowded it was when I was there.

Beautiful and wonderful grounds. Lots of special things to do just like picnic and playing.

Very nice for the kids they had fun skating and riding on scooter

We went to Maggie Daley Park for the Chicago Spring Marathon. It is phenomenal! The park is beautiful and so well taken care. It really is an oasis. They even have a climbing wall and miniature golf! Outstanding!!

Maggie Daley is a nice clean park. Located in Central downtown behind The Bean, the park offers a lot of activities. Call beforehand to see what is offered during the pandemic.

There are not enough hours in the day to cover all that there is to do here! Its a childs wonderland. I wish there were more places to sit in the shade near the playground as it gets home, but overall a super fun place to go! After exhausting themselves on the slides, my kids and husband had an epic game of hide n seek in the mirror maze.

Great for kids of all ages, right next to Millennium Park & attractions. Follow the age ranges for the play areas & youll be set.

Ice skating was a bonus to find in this large, open park. Lots of handicapped accessible areas & places for the kids to play and burn off energy.

An amazing place to bring kids of all ages. The park is immaculately kept and there are lots of great playground attractions to keep kids smiling.

Really fun place to visit. The kids had a great time.

Best park Ive ever been to. Views from the top of one of the bridge towers are spectacular! See attached. So many awesome things for kids to play on!

Beautiful scenery. Great for pics, a simple date, quiet walk or a day out with the kids.

Love this place! Such a gem in downtown Chicago. One of the top things to do in the city, perfect for a date, with friends, or solo.

Incredible park in downtown Chicago surrounded by sky scrapers on one side and the lake on the other. Theres a huge rock climbing structure and massive playground area for kids. The best though is the ice skating ribbon. Not a rink but a trail through the park with turns in both directions and slight elevation changes

A great place to hang and socially distance. Chicago out did themselves with this park

Its nice but everything is closed bc of corona

I dream playground for kids and families to enjoy with all the biggest and best amenities a child could dream of!!!! They have a rock climbing wall, miniature golf, rock climbing for a small fee that makes it a great family outing. I took my daughters and they had a blast and after they played at the park we walked over the BP Bridge to Millennium Park and took more pictures (over 100). Bring snacks and water because concessions are not cheap as well as comfortable shoes because there will be a lot of activity for everyone.

The mini-golf place was so fun!

One of our favorite destinations with kids in Chicago. Excellent playground, great skating ribbon in winter, and a quick walk from Michigan Avenue

Great for kids of all ages! The best spot for families in the city. The slides are amazing and there is something for all ages and climbing running, sliding....a lot of laughing and Smiles!

Great place for an outdoor skate.

This was so fun for so many different ages of kids! It was a place we have to go back to!

Maggie Daley Park is probably the best children’s park in Chicago! It has a wide range of different areas for any age! It also has beautiful gardens and is right by Millennium Park!

Dont spend too much time in 1 place because there is lots to see and many places to play. Here is a pic of the best part!

Try and go on a weekday or early in morning or late in evening. Mid day on Saturday or Sunday is fun but crowded. Kids age 2-8 looove it. Easy to lose your kids so keep your eyes on alert;)

This is one of the most stunning urban parks anywhere. The childrens play areas are loosely organized by age yet all of the areas have the most fantastic universal access design. What is universal access? Almost every feature can be accessed by kids of all abilities and wheelchairs. Instead of putting in easy access features off to the side as an afterthought, this park allows a child in a wheelchair or crutches to move around and play right next to your hyperactive 10 years old climber.

This is such a neat park. There’s a lot to explore and see, and even then you’ll find something that surprises you. Definitely give it a try!

Best slide ever! Great place for kids to roam, explore, and have fun.

This place can get extremely busy. But otherwise very nice park for the kids to play.

Beautiful park in the heart of the city alongside the lake!

Im a fan of the mini golf here. Its so freaking cool. Plus its name after Chicago best mayor late wife. In so many words. Thank you Mr.Mayor for putting this beautiful park/mini golf course in the heart of the City. Chicago misses you.

Its a beautiful scene all the people even though it was cold it was nice Chicago is a beautiful City

This was my first time going here and we had a blast!! Many different parks and a couple of splash pads. Each park has an age rating so it makes it easy to navigate. I have a 2 year old and this was an awesome time for her. Would recommend to any family! Plus great views of the skyline!!

Nice lil park for children .

A beautiful place and quite peaceful in the early morning.

Best park my kids & I have EVER been to in the world by far. From awesome slides to cool tunnels and nest swings that look at the Chicago skyscrapers... simply amazing.

This place is a absolutely stunning place for every visitor and Chicagoans alike!!! There is a little for everyone! Family oriented, kid-friendly, romantic friendly, animal friendly, nature friendly; There is a little bit for everyone!!!!While many people with children find themselves at the park, there are a few quiet spots on the Randolf street side, across from Marianos. I love to read and I go there because it is almost always quiet, aside from festivals and other activities. Everyone is pretty friendly and respect your space. The view there is absolutely stunning! My favorite of a million favorites in Chicago; The view!For those of you who have children, I suggest doing what I do when I tag along my nephews nieces with me. ( After losing one for 8 minutes at Navy Piers Winter Wonderland). I tag all of them. I get these name tags and wrist bands and in permanent marker, I write a note something to the effect of If I am lost or in case if emergency call my guardian. I place two numbers, my own and another in case of emergency. I do not put the names of the kids however, for the wrong person can use that against them. Before any trip in public outings, I also have a pep talk from the smallest to the biggest. We go through the rules for fun, learning, and respect for others. The main one being if I can not see you and you can see me thats a problem. I also express to them, if they ever get lost, seek out a police officer or security guard, or a mommy and daddy whose together. If they must ask help from a daddy, ask help from a daddy who has children. And I tell them if a stranger calls them for no reason, scream, holler,... I also may place a tag inside their pants pockets in case they lose one. The bracelets are good because the stay on. Those are my suggestions, though for the most part, the park is safe.Also, if you get hungry, instead of buying food that costs and arm and a leg, get a healthy abs delicious meal at a sensible price from Marianos. And if you are a penny pincher, the best deal is right off Michigan and Randolf ( Metra Train Station), if you go downstairs. There is burger king, a subway, a pizza restaurant, a taco restaurant, a healthy shake place, and even a nice lounge for those of you who wants to take drink.It is a lovely place to be at all times.

Very nice park. Mini golf course there too!

The Maggie Daley (ribbon ice rink) was an interesting experience for me-- since I am not used to skating up and down hills. It was really fun to see the city as you skate around a squiggly path of ice, however, since it is so crowded, the ice gets shredded. When that happens, it is very hard to try to skate without falling. Also, the shredded ice takes awhile for the zamboni to smooth out. Still I guess its not the parks fault that everyone wants to visit it.

Best park weve ever been too, had plenty of fun stuff to do an play on.... plus the regular patrolling security was nice.

--Great place for family outings, photography, jogging, etc. Recommended.

The ice skating and mini golf are the best, and also affordable - just bring your own skates and it’s free!

Maggie Daley park is beautiful. There are so many things for kids and adults to do. Wall climbing, an area for kids to ride their scooters, play areas for toddlers and bigger kids. A mini water park area, and so much more.

It was very very fun and very age appropriate...yes totally recommend this place to everyone and anyone who loves the outdoors...

Nice and clean park with a lot to explore! Good for every age group!

Nice little park in downtown Chicago.I hope the two old couples who were trying to get their pics clicked find this one as well. They were adorable
