An amazing park with a bit of everything for everyone both young and old!

My younger grandkids ( ages 2,6,6,7,7,7, 11, &12) all enjoy this playground and we visit often.

Tip: If you go to the playground go on a sunny day be sure to bring hats and swather in sunscreen as shaded areas are few and far between.

The park on a whole is great. Nice circular walking path around the park that leads to Centennial Lake. The circuit stations next to the handball courts are awesome!

The tennis courts are decent- but get there early for court time as they fill quickly and remain active until dusk.

Cool little neighborhood park.

Great playground! It can get a bit crowded at times, but everything is new and nicely laid out. There are 2 swings that have both a baby/toddler seat and parent seat connected together (called an "Expression Swing" apparently). It's very nice, but I wish there were more! Also, there is not a lot of shade around the playground and not too many trees except for around the perimeter. That all being said, it's still our favorite playground to visit in the area!

They are expanding the park so right now it is surrounded by a construction site but it is open for play. No bathroom right by the playground but there is one just a bit up the path by the tennis courts

Nice new playground at thr north entrance to Centennial Park. Not as big as the playground near the main entrance, but parking is more readily available. Lots of ways to make music/sound. There is a kind of dual swing I've never see before that allows a parent and toddler to swing together. The playground is adjacent to a small skate park and multiple tennis courts. This entrance is a little further from the lake than other entrances and seems almost like a separate park. Overall very nice.

A new playground (Open 2021) with interesting play equipments. For 2-5yo area has a train setup with tunnel and slide with a merry go round next to it. There are 2 double swings for caregivers with smaller kids that facing each other in swings area. Another play equipment for bigger kids (5-12yo) has more advanced setups, with different steps, ramp, climbing setup around, and a small part of it is covered with a small tarp.

It’s fun playground for both children and caregivers because it’s easier to watch out while hangouts.

Next to the playground, there’s a gated skateboarding setup, tennis courts and a connecting to Centennial Lake trail.

Nice. Very new with interesting play equipment. There's a train setup for the littlest kids, so if you've got a little engineer, plan a visit. There's also a nifty merry-go-round with "teacups" style self-spinning. Pretty cool. And then there are a couple double swings that let little ones swing while facing mom or dad. Never seen that before. Lots of noise-makers and tactile gizmos scattered about.

I'm starting to get a little jealous of kids these days. These new playgrounds are pretty awesome. Though, the old timbertown-style forts and even better, the tire parks! were a lot of fun, back in the day. You could get thoroughly filthy on those tires!

Just opened back up with all new equipment! There's a two story structure with three slides for bigger kids, a small train structure with a slide for smaller kids, various swings, soft rubber ground, and a spinning ride. There's also a water fountain, a good amount of parking, and bathrooms at the top of the hill.
