Cape County North Park is a great park for picnics with the family and strolling around the lake or taking a small hike on the paved trail. It is not a great park to take young kids to play at the playground. Not only is the play area old and paint is chipping off (looks pretty dangerous), it consists of a few swings and then a tower you climb up with narrow, steep stairs and 4 slides that come off of it. It might be fine for school-aged kids, but doesn't fit the bill for young ones.
