A hidden gem that made me me feel special and privileged to discover! It's like a whimsical,,magical spot out of a Beatrix Potter book. I took my 4 & 6 year old grandson's there and they loved it. A nice change from a traditional playground. Some if the fun there is what you make of it! A good sensory park!
We played "I-spy a ( fill in the blank with an animal)in the gazebo with the animal cut outs.
We swung in the big porch swings and talked.
We raced through the mini labyrinth to see who got to the middle first and once there, we sat on the bench and tasted the mint leaves! They loved that!
I taught them to stop and smell the roses in the rose garden which also makes a great place for pictures.
Their favorite was the giant sand area with the water pump that runs down a log and makes puddles for the kids to play in. I could barely tear them away to go explore the other parts of the park.
There are 2 little slides that Built-in between tall grassy areas which was very picturesque and nature like.
There is a fabulous climbing tree which for any little boy is a win-win!
There is another slide that's better for toddlers and in its right beside some sift, fuzzy, touchable plants called lambs ear which is very sensory for little hands.
There is a fallen tree that the boys enjoyed climbing and playing on with other kids.
I might be missing some things, but it's worth a little visit. I will definitely bring the boys back and they will be excited to go!

Read moreI almost don't want to share how awesome this park is because it was almost like a secret garden park. The slides were out of service but there was so much to love still. Hand pump that creates a cool stream around the landscaping, picnic area, reading area with a free little library, climbing areas and the best part for my kids, the sand play area with water feature so you can really play like you're at the beach! All made from recycled wood! With beautiful gardens and trees! Only problem is there is no public restroom but the folks at the community center with the pool were kind enough to let the kids use the restroom (not sure if that's standard or we...
Read moreVery nice little park in the middle of a neighborhood. Really nice native plants attracting pollinators. Hanging adult swings and seating, a nice big sandbox area, some slides for kids and a cool water feature with an old-fashioned hand pump and a little river on the side of the park! A few picnic tables, lots of trees that will be nicer each year as they get bigger and provide more shade. Only street parking but when I've driven there has been plenty on the little...
