The Pointe at Ballwin Commons, Ballwin


Location: #1 Ballwin Commons Circle, Ballwin, MO 63021

Amenities: playground, restrooms, picnic shelter, lake, volleyball, basketball

Website: http://www.ballwin.mo.us/Departments/Parks-and-Recreation/The-Pointe-at-Ballwin-Commons/

Playground ground cover: wood chips under swings, poured rubber under the playground, sand under bouncy toys, and boulder.

This large playground has a little something for all ages - 4 sling swings, 2 baby bucket swings, tunnels (both low and high), slides, hand-over-hand bars, balance beams, bouncy toys, and a large merry-go-round. The equipment is a little old but it's in good shape. It is in full sun. The rubber surface material really needs to be replaced.

This is the view of the rec center, there is no restroom at this playground so just keep in mind the nearest bathroom is in that building and it's a bit of a hike for little ones.
