Well this park park was a surprise and certainly a good one. Definitely worth a return visit with the playgroup folks sometime. I had Google Earthed this one before setting out on our bike ride there were only basket ball hoops in the street view but I suspected it was slated for a playground by the looks of the area. When we got there I was right and it was not just a playground but a splash pad as well. As a rare stroke of luck would have it my 3 year old had her bathing suit on under her clothes and my son had a little swimmer in the bag we lug around so after having to hold them down to change them, as they clawed their way to the symphony of gushing water jets with the sunlight sparkling through them to further plead to our kids to come, they were off and split their time between the splash pad and the play structures. In case you didn't bother to do the math, soaked kids and playground with sand equals little sand monsters for you to deal with so when you go there pack accordingly.
The splash pad is really well done but be warned if you don't want to get wet, not all the jets fire at the same time so you might get too close and get one in the back, trust me, it happens and you get wet..and people laugh at you..and kids laugh at you...and..anyhow, take my word for it!
The play structures are really good as well. They consist of a forest themed toddler and a junior (maybe a bit on the advanced side) structure that have slides that look like logs, logs you can climb up to the platforms on, thatch leaf roofs and tree stumps for jumping between along the ground. A very pretty and fun park that will keep the kiddos going strong for awhile. The only real downside seemed the minimal shaded areas and the park was a bit close to the road, which is not a busy road however.
