I love this park, my kids range from 2-4 yo and they both have just as much fun as the other doing age appropriate activities as mom and I divide and conquer. My oldest loves nature so we go on the trail just outside of the large fenced in playground and we will take little trails off to the side of the walkway and we would always end up back at the walkway. Very well thought out setup for young'ns I'd say ages 2-13 given all the options you have. If you go during summer, you can play until you get hot, and then you can walk right next door to the wetzone (a supervised and fenced water play place). I love this place, idk who made this park but it kicks ***!
P.S. the zipline will hold a 220lb adult male...several times over and over.

Nice great park. It is the same as the kid kingdom park. It has a picnic area and restroom. Plenty of things for the kids to do. Also a nice walking trail right next to it. It also has a water park, but not open during our visit. The water park is separate and needs tickets to go in. Seems like a nice area to visit with kids. There were people with dogs, but some were on leash and some were not.

Great park to take a little hike on the trail! I came looking for native plant species to collect and raise. Sadly the surrounding vegetation is mostly poison ivy and dogwood, there is quite a bit of western ironweed as well. If you go to the disc golf course and wander along the edges there, there are some wildflowers hidden away in the back. I caught glimpses of quite a few lizards, probably anoles but they moved far too fast for me to make them out. Quite a diverse array of insect life, I was particularly surprised to see the biggest tiger swallowtail I've ever seen in the hidden wildflower areas. There are however a metric ton of mosquitos along the paved path, the moist weather lately probably has not helped, a lot of them looked like aedes albopictus or aedes aegypti which prefer to feed on humans and can carry disease so make sure you wear insect repellant!

Lovely place to take a walk. The large playground area is perfect for kids to play and have fun. However, it's worth noting that the park tends to attract high school kids, which can make it a bit crowded and noisy at times. Overall, it's a great park for families and children, but not necessarily ideal for those seeking a serene jogging experience.

Very fun playground lots of stuff no other parks have. Not only is the playground cool but they have outdoor bike and workout equipment.

Suitable place for children aged 3-7 years! Completely free, You can let your children swim with the pool next door!

I've been taking my kids to different playgrounds, and this is my favorite so far. My boys love the metal slide. And all the different climbing areas. Weekends does get busy.

I just recently discovered this park while trying to start my walking/ getting healthy journey. I love it the trail is nice and had work out machines down the trail for you to use. Also it's right next to the recreation center and a huge park for the kid's. I recently took my mom who was in town visiting and she loved it as well. When the kid's had enough of the trail they went to the park. All around good time.🚶🏿‍♀️🚶🏿‍♀️🧍🏾‍♂️🧍🏾‍♂️🧍🏾‍♀️🧍🏿‍♀️🏃🏿
