This park is really cute, and it's tucked into a little neighborhood in Crestwood. The 21-acre park includes a paved mile-long walking trail, a playground, a clean new restroom, three practice softball fields, two soccer fields, two pavilions, a scout fire ring, and two tennis courts.

The playground was renovated in mid-2025 and is so much bigger and better! "With the help of Crestwood’s elected officials and several lucky Long Elementary School students, the two new playgrounds at Crestwood Park officially opened with a ribbon cutting on May 6.

The Crestwood Park playground revamp was made possible by the April 2024 passing of Proposition A, a $33 million ballot measure funding several parks and recreation projects throughout the city. " Quote from a Call Newspapers article from 5/27/25.

The large play structure has it all: 2 stories to climb, a bridge, several tube slides, a pretend window, a steering wheel, and so much more. 

Modified merry-go-round

Cute little playhouse with a tunnel 

Zipline

There are 2 baby swings, 2 sling swings, an expression swing, and an ADA swing. There is supposed to be a saucer swing on the left end but it appears to already be broken. 

There are a bunch of fun stand-alone things, including educational panels, drums, a playhouse, a merry-go-round, a zipline, musical instruments, and more. 

Rock wall

Gear board

Musical instruments
