Bring shade for summer visits
The playground lacks trees and becomes very hot on sunny days, so pack an umbrella or tent.
Avoid evening visits alone
Several reviewers report teenagers smoking and occasional drug activity, especially in evenings, so supervise closely or visit earlier.
Arrive early on busy days
