Check bridge handrails first
Poison ivy has been reported on the bridge handrails, so inspect before children use them.
Bring bread for ducks
The pond has plenty of ducks that children enjoy feeding, making it a bonus activity beyond playground equipment.
Good for running and exploring
Large open grassy fields on both sides of the creek offer plenty of space for kids to roam freely.
Ideal for hot days
Mature shade trees throughout the playground keep it cooler than most parks, even during Atlanta heat.
Arrive early for parking
