Official listing
Walk in from parking
The playground sits back from the street, requiring a short walk from the lot but keeping children away from traffic.
Best for ages 4 and up
The equipment includes parkour-style jungle gyms and bouldering features that appeal more to older children than toddlers.
Bring a picnic
The park has picnic tables, a drinking fountain, and plenty of shade from mature trees, making it ideal.
Check for moose in July
A warning sign about moose activity was posted in late July, so plan accordingly during summer months.
Facilities are basic but clean
There is a porta potty available, which reviewers noted as clean and private, but no traditional restroom.
