North Dam Park — Attraction in Grand Coulee

Nice for a walk, picnic or fishing. Came here looking to have a picnic and play with my toddler. Based on the reviews I read that said "play area could use some updating" and the photos of the other areas of the park I figured it was probably okay. Play area is flat out unsafe for children and should be torn out... Tear out the sorry excuse for tennis courts while your at it and put in a proper playground and this park would be amazing.

As a local it is a very nice park. I would recommend coming here either by yourself or with your family as there is plenty to do. There is frisbee golf if that is your thing along with a basketball court, tennis court and plenty of lawn to enjoy. Two baseball fields if you need to get some practice in. Gondola to park under with a grill to bbq on with a bathroom close by. Great in the summer if you are looking to have a picnic with family...
