Davies Plantation Playground — Attraction in Bartlett

The playground is amazing. I love all the equipment and how it challenges my very active toddler and teen both. The parents seem to be involved with children as well. Every time we've gone, all kids were accounted for and behaved. The lake and walking trail are pretty too.

LOST STARS BECAUSE: I was shocked to see the number of doggie poo baggies laying around the trail. The folks that live in the area obviously care enough about the park to pick up after their pets, but there's only ONE trashcan for a half mile trail. It's at the beginning by the playground. I can't blame owners for not wanting to carry dog doo the whole way! It was disgusting!! Between that and no bathrooms, I don't think we'll frequent this one as much as we hoped to originally. I expected more...

The playground is good quality and clean, and there's a nice paved walking path around the lake with plenty of fish, turtles and ducks to see. There's a decent sized field to play fetch with the dog and it never feels crowded. The Osage orange trees are a seasonal (autumn) highlight, have a bright, citrus scent, and can be found all around the lake. Definitely...

This is an amazing playground with everything a little one could look for (slides, swings, seesaw, monkey bars, climbing wall).

There are benches and picnic tables around the playground as well as a water fountain.

All the equipment is in really good condition.

A great place to escape the big crowds from the playground at...
