I second what Becca Wilson said... This really is a great playground. There are so many fun areas to play for children, all easily visible while walking on the path that goes around the playground. All fenced in, the bathroom is inside the enclosure as well, so a mom can use the necessary without hauling all the kids in the bathroom with her, as long as it is quick.

There is playground equipment available, in a fenced in area so smaller children are less likely to encounter traffic. Still a good idea to keep an eye on them.
There is a pool available though there is not much shade offered so use plenty of sunscreen. I believe there is a small fee for pool use as well so be prepared for that.
Great place to practice softball, football drills, soccer formations, etc as there is a good size field available. The field is away from the other activity areas as well - always nice if the ball gets away from you.
