We loved the playground it had a great little jungle gym for our 18 month old, although the plastic slide and other toys were very hot in the midday sun.

Love the taller play structure for older kids and the shorter play structure for toddlers all in the same convenient fence-enclosed area!

This park is so nice since the remodel! My almost five year old has asked to go back three weekends in a row. Great climbing structures, swings, fantastic merry go round, plenty of accessibility features, and some nice musical play areas. Also, fenced in! Plenty of shade and benches for grown ups! Good job with the upgrade, DPS!

The new playground is great for all ages. There is seating and shade for adults. My daughter loves how friendly everyone is that uses the park, always making new friends!

Trail is a little stinky in places from the water but in good repair. Paved and mostly flat, good for strollers and scooters. Not too busy

We had a Family Day there, beautiful Park, (upgraded equipment is very very nice) shelter needs lights but overall it's nice.

Love the transformation! It’s not rundown anymore as the top review states. Feel free to visit. Note: Good idea to leave before sundown as it’s in the middle of the forest. Also, it doesn’t get good mobile data signals there.

OMG they have just redone the play area and it is such an improvement over the old one. There is even covered/shaded picnic table area (though when I visited they hadn't yet moved in the picnic tables).
