North Park — Attraction in Provo

It's a nice park to take the kids. But be prepared that when you walk across the grass closest to the south end by the parking area the grass is always overly wet. But other then that I wouldn't say there are any issues at this place. Update, the drout has helped but the lawn in areas is still mushy wet. The tables are about the dirtiest I have ever seen at a park. Im also starting to see more and more homeless people hanging around the table area's. I moved to highland a couple years ago and came down here because the Provo Rec center is the best in Utah County. But I can honestly say I'm glad I'm not raising my kids down here. Provo has gone a long ways from what it used to be. I feel its turning out more like the Salt Lake Valley area's. Its sad the state is making a turn for the worst.

Really fun playground with zip lines, swings, two climbing/play structures, a concrete slide, and more. There are scattered picnic tables as well as two pavilions.

There are lots of tall trees which provide shade on some of the equipment. Much of the playground is surrounded by a fence to keep kids from running into the busy road to the south or the parking lot to the east. There is a public bathroom and working drinking fountains that even have a water bottle fill-up station too.

You park in the lot to the east which is shared with the city rec center. There is no street parking. There is a good view of the rec center's outdoor pool play place, so keep in mind your kids might get jealous (mine did). But they absolutely loved the park, especially the zip lines and...

This is a nice little park for small kids. The trees are very mature and provide lots of shade during the hotter hours of the day. There's a nice Pavilion to eat under as well. A lot of the equipment is brand new and there are a few creative things that I have not before. The restrooms were nice and clean and easily accessible in the month of august. It is conveniently located right next to the rec center which is a five-star venue all on its own. It was a very convenient place to be able to eat, as you are not allowed to bring food inside the rec center, and the chain link fences made it easy to communicate with people inside the rec...
