Two playgrounds, one for older and one for younger children. Shelter with bathrooms and water fountain. Walking path. The photos of the girl by a water fountain (also found on Google Maps / reviews) is NOT at this park and is the reason we came here but is not present.

Nice park with a lot of the amenities that you want to see:- Public restrooms- Dedicated parking- Shelter- Full basketball court- Had a little sandbox (although it could use a refresh on the sand)Two different play structures mean a wide range of kids are accommodated and the equipment was all functional/useful.As has been mentioned, the only real downside is that the parking is a little ways away from the playground itself - although not super far. The park is also near/in full view of Mills Civic Parkway - while its not super-loud you do still hear the traffic.

Very beautiful trail! The deer were plentiful. The calming view of the lake was peaceful.

Good clean park! I was there on a really hot day and there was enough shade to hide in if I wanted to and the equipment didnt burn my kids. Two thumbs up.

This is a nice little park. Quite a ways to walk to the playground from the small parking lot though. My kids love going here. It gets very busy at lunch time. Lots of kids to play with from around the area. No shade on hot days unless you go sit at the small shelter. Make sure your kids have some SPF on! ;)

My son loves this park. There is a small playground for smaller kids and a bigger playground for bigger kids, but not too big for the smaller kids. There are swings, a balance beam, benches, picnic tables, a drinking fountain, and bathrooms. Park is a bit of walk from the parking lot. Basketball court and open field by parking lot and an interactive story that starts at the library and goes back to the park with a pathway under the road for safe crossing.
