This is a medium sized facility, which is great because you don't have to walk too far to get to anything. Their prices are good too, a day pass for non residents is not much at all. This tot time is really well suited for toddlers and babies, because there's no deep water at all and it's got a soft surface. It's really just a huge splash pad. There's a large variety of jets and sprayers. 

Here's the rest of the facility if you want to do open swim. This outdoor aquatic center opened in 2008 and replaced the City of Ellisville’s aging traditional pool. The facility features an 8 lane competitive pool, two one meter diving boards, zero depth entry leisure pool with unique vanishing edge and underwater benches. A separate play pool has interactive play features.

Playground Ground Cover: Poured Rubber

This playground has seen better days. It's a bare bones park with nothing fancy and it's in need of repair. The rubber floor of the playground is in bad shape and needs to be replaced. There doesn't appear to be any floor except weeds around the smaller play structure and they need to be trimmed.

There are no bathrooms but the park is entirely fenced in and the large play structure is a good one. If they could just make a few repairs it would be a decent park.

The small play structure only has a slide and some bars. There are also 2 ride on toys.

 The larger play structure has several different slides, 2 rock walls, pretend store fronts, stepping stones, a bridge, and tons of different bars and poles.

 Small pavilion with 2 picnic tables.
