My family stopped here on a road trip from Denver to Vernal, UT (and dinosaur national monument). My four year old needs a place he can run around to play but also decent bathrooms. My six year old needs a playground that's pretty decent to stay amused. I need a nice table to eat and stow whatever we need for the stop. This park has everything we needed. It was busy, much busier than I'd expected, but that made it more fun. The skate park was fun to watch. There were lots of kids for my kids to play with, but also space enough that they didn't get crowded out. The bathrooms were sufficient, mostly, and the water out of the fountains was actually pretty good tasting! It was already fall, so I can't say what the splash pad is like, but I'd imagine it's pretty good based on everything else. I'd definitely stop here again on any future road trips we take...

Additionally there is ample parking around the whole park, trails and 2 bathroom buildings open year round.

The hills are big enough for a good ride, and we spent atleast an hour there each day we were in town.
There is also a skate park and playground, but we didn't use either... snowmen and sliding were...
