Best for toddlers under 4
The splash pad and playground equipment are scaled for younger children, not older kids seeking more challenge.
Check splash pad before visiting
Water features sometimes fail to operate or run poorly, so call ahead if the splash pad is your main draw.
Great for family picnics
The park offers multiple covered pavilions with metal tables, clean restrooms, open fields, and scenic historic buildings for.
Arrive early in summer
The playground sits in full sun with limited shaded seating, so morning visits keep kids cooler and secure tables.
Watch for fire ants in grass
Ants are present throughout the fields, so keep children in shoes and avoid extended barefoot play in open areas.
