Sam McDaniel· 8 months agoBeautiful park. Really nice playground. Very woodsy. Nice walking trail along the water. Picnic shelters.
lacy fuller· a month agoGreat play ground with Swings, small ziplines, and plenty of playground structures
Kristie Novak· a year agoThis place is great for kids. They also have handicap accessible swings and such as well. Multiple playgrounds to choose from and plenty of fun for the whole family. Several different walking trails, plenty of pavilions and benches in the shade. They even have bathrooms, which is great for long days at the park.
Shannon Pierce· 3 years agoWe love this playground! Rotary did a beautiful job, restructuring this and making it fairly accessible for multiple ages and developmental levels. Lots of challenging climbing structures interspersed with traditional equipment, all themed naturally. They have a section for the kids and for a little kids plus lots of little things in between. My daughters favorite is the zip line, which has a traditional seat zip platform for older kids, and a chair with harness for younger kids or kids with low tone. At least seven covered picnic structures with multiple picnic tables and benches, all which have a charcoal grill and water spicket. First come first serve basis for birthday parties. One word of caution – if you have children that are elopers, this playground is by a lake with alligators. No fences! A definite spot to stop with your kiddos!
Christy Harris· a year agoIt's beautiful. Tons of birds and wildlife. The playground is really nice as well.
