This park houses the community center (Five Oaks). They tore down the old one and rebuilt the new one, which opened in late 2023. The general public can use it for a daily fee if they aren't members. 

A large bench for parents to sit and watch their kids.

They have free wifi and coffee too!

Cute tent and building materials for imaginative play.

Art center for crafting, plus books galore. 

I hear the slide is fast, so beware!

A splash pad was added in 2025. It's smallish but a nice addition to the park.  There are 4 sections of pop jets, and one will spray for 10 seconds, then the next section sprays for 10 seconds, and it rotates all around. 

The play structure is older and has slides, a rock wall, a tic-tac-toe board, a bridge, and floating steps.

There are 2 sling swings and 2 baby swings in this area, and more swings down the hill.

6 sling swings 

The playground and splash pad are on the other side of the park from the community center. You can see the center circled in red at the top of the map, and this playground is at the bottom right, circled in red. It doesn't appear to be easy to walk to.
