"Very nice park. Has some fun and unusual play pieces, plus safety town right across the parking lot. It can get a little busy but as a general two thumbs up"

"This was a really fun playground for our kids and there was a pavilion with picnic tables for lunch. Only downside was the portopotty for a bathroom...but it was probably the cleanest portopotty I've ever seen."
