Phoenix Park, Washington



Location: 3001 Phoenix Park Dr., Washington, MO 63090

Website: https://washmo.gov/directory/phoenix-park/

Amenities include a walking trail, pond, pavilion, playground, tennis courts, and restrooms. The playground opened in April 2022 and has wood chip flooring. 



Little free library



The play structure for the kids under 5 has several slides, a tunnel, a rock wall, a bench and a pretend window. 


It is in the full sun but there is a covered pavilion adjacent to the playground and some picnic benches next to the tennis courts. 



Modified merry-go-round





The playground for kids over 5 has a huge cabled climber, big tunnel, balance beam, wood steps, and slides. 













The playground is partially fenced and they may be fencing it all the way around but the playground is new so I'm not sure what the plans are.
