I loved this place as a kid. Used to swing on the swings after school.
Google map showed some photos and this playground are decorated with some insects which my kid loves . But it is not cleaned well with many garbage and fallen leaves, though the other ground for sports looks clean. Also, the bench around the playground are very sticky . It is not only sticky when you touched , but after touching it that my hand is sticky too. Oh, so bad.
Big, but can get crowded. Also very noisy due to the highway close by.
Who doesn't love a clean playground?! We love coming to this playground because it's very secluded there's always seating available for parents and caregivers. And the children just love playing in the water sprinklers during the summer time. You can always see that there's a staff there cleaning and raking the leaves
We really like this park. It's small but has many things to do. I feel that some of the other parks in the area, are so big it's hard to watch your child and your stuff at the same time. For the most part people are willing to share. Although, now that school is in session, the other half of the park, for the basketball courts and stuff, is closed for a majority of the day.
The only thing I ask is for people to pick up their trash. After birthday parties and other celebrations it can get it be a bit messy.

Its a noce clean park with a bathroom, 2 basketball hoops, jungle gym with a slide, and swings. It also has chess boards and benches for parents. Although its next to the highway its not noisey. The only part that I dont like is that you cant see your kids playing on the jungle gym if you are setting on the benches because the bathroom blocks the view.
A median size play ground in the neighborhood. Adequate equipment although simple. Swings are the most popular activities here. Bigger kids can play basketball and baseball in the separate court which belongs to K-19 school (always open to public). The only thing not so good is the restrooms. Cosy and closed during the winter.
I think this is the best overall playground to visit in the forest hills area. The only downside is that it is used by camps and maybe kids from the school next door, meaning it can get crowded. But overall it is very spacious and has cooler play structures and water fountains compared to the other parks.
