Review:


After a morning rain, we donned our rain boots and headed to explore this park. 





What stood out to me was how wheelchair/stroller friendly this park was with a ramp going straight into the main playground structure. We also appreciated how there were two steering wheels so no fighting over who got to be "captain" first. 





There is a small toddler play structure close to the bathroom facilities. 





There is a Little League baseball field with bleachers and steps leading up to another parking lot. 





There is a large covered picnic pavilion closer to the parking lot as well as a smaller covered one closer to the playground itself. 





Something possibly worth noting is there is a small creek running between the smaller picnic pavilion and the swings section of the playground.
