Guide

Good to know

Good for a picnic

Picnic facilities on site, with room to sit and eat near the play area.

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.

Facilities are basic but clean

There is a porta potty available, which reviewers noted as clean and private, but no traditional restroom.

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.
