This is a very busy north county park. The playground was renovated in 2019 and 2020. There are 2 sling swings, 1 adaptive swing, and 1 expression swing. There are 2 huge play structures with all kinds of slides, bridges, monkey bars, and climbing things. There is also a boat that rocks. The pavilion and restrooms are close by as well. I think parking may be hard to come by in the summer because it's next to the aquatic center. My daughter really enjoyed playing here and watching the ducks on the lake. You can also fish in the lake and they have a lot of summer concerts at the bandstand.

Love rolley slides!

 

 The lake is near the park where you can fish with proper permits. The lake is stocked with carp, trout, and catfish.
