Amenities: trail, tennis courts, playground, historic log cabins, dog park

Website: http://www.creve-coeur.org/index.aspx?NID=284 

Playground ground cover: Poured rubber

The playground has just one structure, but it is large and has areas for all ages to play. It has slides, rock walls, steering wheels, pretend storefronts, stepping stones, and tons of bars and poles. I would have LOVED the rope cube when I was a kid.

There's also a dog park here, so my daughter got to pet lots of doggies which she loved.

These log cabins are amazing! There are 2 and they are called the Hackmann Clester Cabins. The first cabin was home to the Hackmann Family from 1842 – 1925. Mr. and Mrs. Herman H. Hackmann and their son John Henry arrived in America in 1841 from Germany. The cabin was built in two phases. The earliest room is restored in the pioneer style. Around 1870, John Henry and his wife, Catherine Buescher, added a kitchen, dining room, porch and covered the building with clapboard. The latter room is restored in the Victorian period. Their son, Herman H., and his wife Louise Richt reared 10 children here.













Restroom building is very clean! This park is beautifully maintained and we really love coming here.
