This park is long and skinny and there are 2 separate playgrounds that are not close together, one at each end (see my map photo below). It's in the middle of a residential neighborhood so there's just street parking. There are restrooms near the playground on the left but none at the playground on the right. 





First I'll discuss the older playground at the top left.  It's large and includes 2 baby swings, 2 sling swings, and 2 large play structures. One of them is basically a huge rock wall-style climber with monkey bars in the center. The regular structure has 3 different slides, a steering wheel, 2 different rock walls, assorted bars and poles, a bouncing bar, and a storefront. This is a great playground if you have a climber!





The covered pavilion and restroom buildings are right next to the playground

The new playground built in late 2022 is very natural, with lots of wood and rope netting. It also has a unique metal water feature. It's unlike anything I've seen at a public playground around here.




There are several troughs with manipulative objects.
