Certainly one of my favorites in this category. Easy access to it, large parking and lots of fun things to do with water. I like the nature inspired design of it. My toddler likes it too. A bit more shade would be great. Other than this no complaints. The bathroom are large and always clean. Can also be used as a changing room.

A very fun splash pad! My kids are 6-10, which is usually too old for a splash pad, but they enjoyed it! A few different spots were shady, so it was nice for the moms.We also went across to the other side and played at the skate park, so it was a nice, fun and full day!

This place is awesome. My 15 month old loves it. Great for kids older as well, up to 8 I would say. If I had to offer criticism. Some more shade would be nice. Bring some shade.

Loved this place! Its large enough that it doesnt feel crowded, even during peak times. In addition to getting to play in thewater, there are interactive areas where the kids can squirt each other with water cannons, dance in ground fountains, get drenched under self-dumping water buckets, or experiment with water gates and dams.If the adults dont want to join on the fun there are covered picnic tables as well as areas of grass is you prefer to lay out on your beach towel.Both my kids and I really enjoyed the Draper City splash pad.

Open for summer 2020 and really a nice splash pad. In case its a primary concern, there is no social distancing or masking amongst the kids and parents also are not masked but do tend to stay apart. The crowds were not what I would consider really busy even on 2 warm afternoons.

This is absolutely the best splash pad Ive been too and Ive been to many all over the country... Its incredibly clean and free unlike the ones in Arkansas. Draper City Parks and rec really knows how to run a splash pad one of the employeesw very helpful to us in our time there and he was quite handsome as well he was about 510 and had dark hair so basically the stereotypical tall dark and handsome if youre lucky you can catch him there.

A new favorite for our family. A good amount of handicap accessible parking, grassy area to space out, and feature variety. We were able to use my daughters wheelchair throughout the splash pad, and then were able to take her out for her to comfortably play in the following water. Our older boys loved the different sprays.

Great splash pad, lots of space and places for a lot of children to play. There are not a ton of benches or shade, so get there early or go later in the afternoon if you want shade to sit in. It is a great place to cool off from the summer heat.

Open during summer 2020. Lots of kids. Very fun. Partially shaded water zone but not really any shade for parents so bring an umbrella or pop up tent.

Review №11

Really well put together. Plenty of room for the kids to play in and restrooms are close by. Picnic tables made it easy to eat lunch in the shade while being able to watch your kids. Location is ideal.

So happy they had the splash pad up, let us feel normal for a couple hours. Very clean and park is maintained.

We love this splash pad. The kids love the two little streams running through this splas pad and the two waterfalls going down steps to race their boats in. Theres also a fun little park right by it to go climb around. Still looks new and clean and everything works perfectly.

Review №14

Loved how you can see where your kids are at any vantage point in the splash pad area. The lazy river was great, it keeps the older kids entertained longer. Downside was there was tons of trash scattered everywhere.

Great place for kids. Wish there was a bit more shade, but otherwise its super fun!

Review №16

Bigger splash pad with little streams, dams, and fountains of water. Trees are still small so shade for parents is limited. I love the shade over the splash pad. There isnt a ton but enough to offer relief from direct sunlight light if needed. The bathrooms are handicap accessible, clean, and have diaper changing stations. Parking is plentiful. This is a great place to cool off for free. The children had a blast!

We LOVE the Draper Splash Pad! Its perfect for toddlers. We saw smaller babies enjoying it too--the water is shallow and cool, just right for sitting and splashing or dipping your toes! It hasnt been too crowded the two times weve gone (one weekday, one Saturday) and there are shady spots to sit. My two-year-old loves it here, so well be going back soon!

One of the better, if not the best, splash pads in the area. Although, it has always been packed with people when Ive gone.

My girls and I really like this place. My only complaint was the amount of random rock everywhere. I feel like it’s an accident waiting to happen.

Coolest splash pad in the area. We really love it and bring our kids here a lot. On second thought, it sucks! Stay away! Go other places than this place.

Review №38

Love this place, its close to home, low key, and its clean, and cleanliness is a big deal to me, most the guests that visit there with their littles, are pretty respectful of others and the messes theyve made, I notice how people pick up after themselves, bathrooms are for the most part actually clean, kids will be kids there is some toilet paper left on the floors in there, but to be expected. Children are pretty much respectful, and not a lot of children picking on others, ( unless its their own relative, ) overall hands down this is the best splash pad weve visited.

My 3-year-old twins love this splash pad. As a mom, I think it is great too. There is plenty of space to splash and play and I really love the sun shades that offer a choice to splash in a little shade. The hours of operation are excellent. The only down side for me is that there arent a lot of places to sit where you can be near where the kids are playing (even less if you need level ground for your stroller).

Review №46

This is a really fun splash pad! There is a little bit of shade and lots of fun areas for the kids to play. The bathrooms are single rooms (several of them) so that makes it much easier to get kids changed afterwards. The park was clean and there was even a parks employee who came through to clean while we were there.

Review №47

Not a lot of parking and pretty small to serve the whole city of Draper. It is a fine use of the space that was there. The park gets heavy use especially on warmer days. Being across the street from a large Apartment complex draws a larger density of people. Not a bad thing but I think more of these could be placed to meet the desire of the larger population.

Review №48

This splash pad is great! There is plenty of room for tons of kids. Even when its busy its still fun. There are 4 bathrooms/changing rooms. There are plenty of benches and tables, plus grass space to set up chairs or canopies. There are some shady seating areas.

One of the best splash pads in the Valley. It’s relatively new and it was really well designed. When we went, it wasn’t too crowded which was really nice.

Review №50

The best place to take kids! I love how there are so many little things to entertain different ages of kids. I also like how the features are all close together so I can sit in one spot and keep an eye on all four kids. Definitely a great way to keep kids entertained and cool down without spending any money.

I would say no matter how many people it looks like is here there is so much space for everyone to enjoy time with there loved ones. It is easy to see all of your kids. If you lose one 5times/10 they are right by you. Thats how great it is.

My son liked this splash pad more than the valley fair mall. There was a lot more for them to do, and he was able to get soaked. I only wish there was more shade to sit under.

We love going to this splash pad! Its small enough that you dont have to follow toddlers around, but theres still do much to do. Theres not a ton of grass to sit on, but there is a good amount of shaded areas.

Review №56

I think splash pad is a fun place for little ones . It has like little things you can play with. Theres a place you can go ans stand under an wait for a few Minutes and it will dump a hole bucket of water on you . I give this 4 stars because there’s rocks that you can climb on but its really dangerous because if a little one could fall and get hurt. Again it a fun place even though you have to like bring water guns or buckets or some little toys it’s a good place. But watch your little ones they could get hurt .

My favorite thing about this particular splash pad is visibility. I can see my kids from any part of the splash pad. Other perks are the shade and I’ll be honest the toys! They are great and there is a little river!

I like how close the splash pad is to my home. Regular hours are from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. took the kids on a bike ride today and found out Sunday hours are 10 a.m. to 4 pm. Im going to write a letter to Draper City Council, Sunday afternoon at the splash pad sounds awesome.

Review №63

Parks and Rec employee was very rude. When you pull into park there are no visible signs saying no dogs allowed. We sat on a bench to let our kids play. Mind you our dog was no where near the water at all. The employee working today was very rude saying we couldnt read the posted signs that are on the opposite side of the buildings we were sitting by and said we have to leave. You really cant see them unless you go around the buildings and walk close to read them. Someone should teach their employees to be more polite.

This place is so amazing-- Ive taken my kids several times in the past few weeks. Its huge with lots of shade and interesting water features for babies up to bigger kids. We like to bring water guns and toy boats as well. There isnt a ton of seating, so I bring my own chair. That way I can park myself wherever I want and still be able to keep an eye on my kids.

I would give it 5 stars if it had the same operating hours on Sunday. As a long time resident of Draper, Im disappointed that they closed the park today at 4 pm. It is still 100 degrees in Salt Lake.

Note: Google Maps didn’t take me to the correct place. It was further north than what it was saying.I actually really like this splash pad. Not to big, but not too small either. The river is amazing. I have young kids, so it was great for them. It does feel a little on the smaller kids size, I’m not totally sure if teenagers would like it.There is a lot of shade over the water and plenty of grassy area. The bathrooms are so clean, but it’s probably because it’s newAlso, I don’t love the giant rocks in the middle of the pad, but they seem to be stepped and big enough that kids can’t get too hurt.

We love the draper splash pad it’s perfect for all ages. I have a 9 yr old, and a 19 month old. They both love it. There is a nice little river that runs through it, and most of the water is constantly going. The pad is big enough that we don’t feel overcrowded. I like that there is some covering over the water area. I only with there was a little more shade over the seating.
