Guide

Good to know

Good for a picnic
Picnic facilities on site — room to sit and eat near the play area.
Official listing
Visit during daylight hours
The playground lacks lighting and the park can feel unsafe after dark, so plan your visit for daytime only.
Bring your own soap
Bathrooms are available but lack soap, so carry hand sanitizer or wipes for cleanup after playing.
Arrive early for parking
The park wraps around two major streets and parking is finite, though it has enough capacity for special events.
Perfect for family picnics
Multiple clean picnic tables, abundant shade, and trash cans throughout make this ideal for a casual outdoor meal.
Explore the nature trails
A walking and biking trail winds through wooded areas with scenic views, offering more than just playground play.
