Railyard Park — Attraction in Rogers

Revisited this park the other day hoping I preferred it now my kids are a little older. Nope. -Improvements- you can get there without crossing a rail track!!!! Woooo! Thank you! parking options were plentiful.

Negatives- people smoking whatever they smoke these days and hiding out in the concrete tubes didn’t work for me. It impacted the experience because I wouldn’t allow my kids to go through the tunnels when people were lighting up in them. Pretty sure if it was a cigarette they were smoking they would have just lit up outside 🤔Gosh I hate this park. I did try it again though!! Not worth the stress, I recommend going ….literally anywhere else.

July 2022: Did they speak to any parents before they created this? It’s so big, you can’t see your kids all the time, the access was over a railway and there were steps which I’m hoping wasn’t the only way to get in…awkward to walk with a toddler and a little kid, super super loud with the roadworks and the train- great concept, terrible execution. Looks the part but in reality it was awful! Didn’t look to be 100% fenced in either. No where to sit as far as I could tell. It’s a great park if you like adding to your...

This park is next to 2 very busy roads. On one side is parallel parking dangerously close to the street. The park is very long and there needs to have pedestrian crossing with lights and the opposite end, although the farthest or closest -depending where you park - has an intersection with a traffic light. The other side has better parking but full when we went. Like I said, the park is very long (almost a block long)and narrow with four wide open entrances on the sides and ends. There are slides, tunnels, and other fun stuff, but in my experience, it is very easy to lose track of more than one child. In a lot of parks, attractions are more spread out, and not in a long rectangular shape. With the busy streets, wide open and far apart entrances, and limited visibility this parent did not have a good experience at all. I felt this was not a safe place for them to play! I would suggest closing off the farther end and having a dedicated parking area off the street with a pedestrian crosswalk. Sorry, but this is my...

After being in the car for several hours getting to Arkansas my toddler had a lot of energy to get rid of if we had any chance of getting her into bed this evening. So we started looking for parks and founds this one real close to our location.

I thought that this is a really cool park! I loved how the grown is ‘soft and squishy’ when walking on it. The train theme was really cool as well.

Only issue we had is when we got there a LOT of teenagers were all around and gathering in the pipes where they could not be seen. This made my toddler a bit apprehensive about doing much. She still had fun running around and going down slides. We came back after we ate dinner and a TON of toddlers where there and she had a blast! She ran all over the park playing, laughing, and more!

Best part was when a train that came by and honked the horn which everyone loved.

We will be visiting this park a...
