Excellent for young toddlers
Separate playground equipment designed for different age groups lets parents supervise multiple children in one shaded area.
Ideal for birthday parties
Covered pavilions with grills, picnic tables, and bathrooms make hosting celebrations convenient and comfortable.
Visit on weekdays for peace
Saturdays fill with softball games, making parking difficult and the atmosphere busy rather than quiet.
Bring bug spray for trails
Mosquitoes are notably present in wooded areas and along the nature trail despite being sparse near the playground.
Arrive early on game days
Parking requires a walk from the lot when softball games are scheduled, so early arrival is essential.
