"This park has everything"

This park has everything in one central location: a recreation center, multiple levels of play equipment, baseball diamonds, soccer fields, a walking trail, a nearby golf course and an in-line hockey rink.

For the older kids, there's a very tall "slide tower" with a tunnel slide, spiral slide, and bumpy slides accessed by stairs, a climbing wall, or ladders.

Big kid swings are close by, along with monkey bars, spinning equipment, and a zip track.

For preschoolers, there's a much more expansive play set with smaller slides; bridges; a big purple climbing area; and props like steering wheels.

Above the main park, a smaller play area is for young children. It's very manageable for parents of toddlers, with baby swings located nearby.

Be Aware: When the park is busy, it can be difficult to keep track of kids. It is definitely not a "sit around and relax" park for parents -- more of a "chase after the kids" park. Some of the equipment is very tall, which poses a risk for young children who are tempted to climb.

"Awesome Park!"

I took my boys to this park, and they just had a blast!  They have 3 different play areas that are good for toddlers through big kids.  They also have a huge open field to play in as well.  The play equipment is new and really fun.  The only drawback is the lack of shaded areas to sit.

"Amazing playground"

Yet another park that I have to literally tear my children away from, and it's right down the road from our home!  We love to go sledding down the huge hills, play on the interesting play structures, walk, play tennis, and play hockey on the rink. There is also a disc golf course, baseball field, even an indoor swimming pool with a waterslide. Plenty to keep the kids entertained all day, and even a public restroom (what is it with parks that don't have restrooms these days?!)
