Website: https://www.brentwoodmo.org/2437/Brentwood-Park

Playground Ground Cover: Astroturf and poured rubber


Park Amenities
  • Indoor/Outdoor Pavilion (Brentwood Park Pavilion), capacity of 80

  • Amphitheater, capacity of 100
  • Destination playground and splash pad.

This amazing destination playground opened in April 2024. Please enter the park from Brentwood Blvd. via East Pendleton Ave. and turn right onto Brazeau Ave. The entrance from Brentwood Blvd. is part of a future project that is in process. Just be aware that parking is a nightmare here, they do not have enough and if you park in some of the parking lots of businesses in the area you may be towed. They are aware of the problem and say they are working on solutions. 

This playground has everything, including a zipline, a huge net climber, a Viking swing, a merry-go-round, and more. If this playground looks familiar, it was built by the same people who built O'Day Park and Veterans Memorial Park in St. Charles and has a lot of the same elements and features. 

The 2.5-acre playscape includes ziplines, basket hammocks, rock-climbing walls, hills you can roll down, a merry-go-round (ADA accessible), and a multilevel play structure to accommodate all ages and abilities. The splash pad is a very long channel with sprayers and pop jets along the way.

In addition to the parking lot, there is street parking across the street but the residents aren't happy about people taking their spots. 






They have an expression swing, ADA highback swing, a baby swing, and 3 sling swings.









The pavilion close to the playground has an outdoor gas fireplace, a window wall, and private bathrooms. There is a big lawn there for events and string lights as well.












The splash pad here is a very long concrete channel. There are 2 "dams" you can lift to manipulate the flow of water. There are several pop jets that come on periodically at each end and in the middle. 





Nice nod to Deer Creek



Loungers






Rock climbing wall




Climbing logs


Zipline






This webbed climber is HUGE and super fun with lots to do underneath it, including rolling logs, floating steps, hammocks, and more. 





This double-disc swing is so fun!




This hill is perfect for rolling





This wooden play structure is super cool and has slides, activity panels, and rope bridges.

























This aqua blue area is for the smaller kids and has the 2 roller slides, merry-go-round, smaller webbed climber, swings, and balance beam. 









Musical instrument area 








The amphitheater is awesome and I can't wait to listen to music here!
