This splash park has so much for the kids to enjoy on a hot day! Its free and even the little toddlers loved it. There is a nearby playground but it was better for school aged kiddos

Clean, not crowded on a Monday mid-day. Lots of fun for all ages. Push the top of the big red and yellow poll to make the water start. It doesnt look like a button, it just looks like a poll on the edge of the splash area.The playground right next to the splash pad is for older kids, maybe over 5 or 6. I had a 2 and 4 year old with me that couldnt really climb on anything alone. Theres another playground closer to the road, but within the same parking lot, that is good for littler kids.

Nice splash park for the kiddos. Also has a pretty big and colossal playground for them to enjoy. My son and I are part if the Screaming Eagles Football family so our main purpose at this park is the open fields we utilize for practice. Come check it and us out if you have the opportunity. You wont be disappointed.

This Splash Pad is actually really nice compared to the others in town. I like that the pad is blue which doesnt reflect the sun straight into your eyes its also softer to the feet then the others in town. I also like that they have a canopy to keep the Sun also the adults or the kids they need a place to hide from the Sun for a bit

I would have given 5 stars but there werent enough picnic tables available to sit. It has a really nice awning that could accommodate more sitting. Other than that, it was amazing! The kids loved the splash pad. It was super soft, no bumps. They also have a playground which had updated equipment. Very clean and well taken care of. Plenty of parking, bathroom are accessable and clean which is a big plus. All in all, we loved it! I would definitely go back

Yes the greatest thing for the children, it is fun for children, relaxing for the parents and a added educational piece is when they have to bring a patient to the helicopter to get emergency help the children get to see from afar, how the fire dept. and the Sheriff dept. works together to help others

The kids and i love this park and splash pad, it isnt as busy as some of the other ones in Clarksville. Its really nice but i suggest you bring your own chair they have a big umbrella type thing you can sit under to keep sun off of you. We always pack plenty of snacks and drinks and stay a while :)

Well kept little park. Hidden on back side of Austin Peay. Perfect for afternoon picnic or little ones birthday. Splash pad keeps our toddler busy for ours. Bathrooms are kept fairly clean as well. Plenty of parking.

Loved the atmosphere here. Thankful yo have a free place to meet up where the kids can burn off summer energy and stay cool while the adults can chat. You are allowed to bring your own food and drink, which made it convenient to be able to stay the entire day. The drainage system is not the best however, and 2 days that we went, they waded through sitting water.

The water turned off and we couldnt get it back on. It tells you to touch red button but for some reason it didnt turn the water back on.

I love the park but the people that visit from outside of this area make it horrible. This use to be a park that only low income families would visit if you know what I mean. Now because of the upgrades kids from others areas come and pick and scrutinize the children from this area. Picking fights, spiting, and braking things. Then the outside kids go home and the kids that live but this park have a a representation they dont deserve. They need more bathrooms and trash cans. Also more seating. Larger play space. Also the water kids all over the seated areas

Such a great place for the kids. So glad they updated the park and installed shade and bathrooms.Wish there were more shaded areas away from pad because ground was muddy from the water. Also needs shade area by park.

Only reason 4 stars is the entrance / exit is narrow and does not easily facilitate bidirectional traffic.
