We love this park, theres a basketball court and the splash pad being next to it is a big plus during the warmer days. Great playground for younger kids as its all fenced in and a decent amount of equipment. Theres a bench and seats for grownups. Weve packed picnics here and theres a some shaded areas to eat under. Theres only portable restrooms available for this park, so not really a place to change if youre coming for the splash pad; make sure to come dressed in swimsuits. Parking is set in an uphill angle; makes bringing a stroller or wheelchair down from the parking area a bit tricky but manageable.

Good place for kids to burn energy. Love the sprinklers for water play. Theyre a life saver for parents in the summer

Great playground with lots of toys for kids. Only issue is that the splash pad doesnt last long enough after the fire hydrant button is pushed. I understand that this is due to water saving concerns but it could last twice as long and would get a 5 star from me.

Great little park for kids my only complaint is the big kid swings are over 3 feet off the ground, it makes no sense.

Awesome park! Lots of toys, trike bikes and sand box to play in. Plus the playground itself and even a cool water park area where they can run around with water shooting out! Overall this is just a really cool playground! We loved it!

Very clean park with a good play area for kids 12 months +. Always a ton of trucks in the sandbox. The splash pad is a great feature in the summer (note: you have to keep pushing the top of the purple hydrant in the middle to keep the water going - it does about a 1 minute loop through all of the water features and then shuts off - slightly annoying its not a bit longer and someone has to man this station...and there are limited instructions). I always found it hard to figure out the hours...2017 days/times are: (June 17-September 4) M/W/F 12-6, weekends 10-4, T/Th closed.

Great day at the park and splash pad. Only bummer is how often you have to press the button to activate the water, wish it lasted a little longer and my kids are too short to press it. Playground has swings and sandbox and a great climbing structure!

Sandbox with lots of toys. Could do with some clean out of some of the broken ones, but my son loves it anyway. Splash park is great and there is lots of space to run with tables for lunch. Fenced in playground makes things a bit less stressful with the little ones.

Love this park. Played here when I was young. Only one thing... the portolets are beyond gross. They should make the garage into bathrooms. Or have them cleaned more often. Just my opinion.

This is a great little park, especially in the summer when the splash pad opens up.The park is nicely enclosed and very safe, with a good range of equipment for infants as well as toddlers, plus older kids. The sand pit is lovely and has some toys. Plenty of swings for a range of children and benches around the play area.The splash pad is pretty large, lot of room for kids to run around with various jets of water shooting out which is great for a range of kids but probably better for toddlers plus, rather than little infants.There isnt much in the way of seating or shade at the splashpad either, so perhaps worth bringing something to sit on as its quite hard concrete with only a couple of picnic bench/tables.Not much in the way of restrooms either which is a shame. A couple of dodgy portaloos.The parking is to one side, there is a fair bit of it, but some of it can be a little steep if youve got to carry a little one, also not shaded.
