Good to know

Good for a picnic
Picnic facilities on site — room to sit and eat near the play area.
Official listing
Great for group events and picnics
The park has covered ramadas, grills, basketball and volleyball courts, making it suitable for birthday parties and family gatherings.
Arrive early on weekends
The playground is often empty even mid-morning, which some parents find peaceful but others want to avoid.
Park on Emil Rovey street only
There is no parking lot; street parking on Emil Rovey is the only legal option, and larger vehicles.
Bring your own bathroom supplies
The park has no restrooms, which reviewers consistently cite as the main limitation.
Check splash pad operation first
The splash pad exists but reviewers report it frequently does not work, even on hot days.
