Overall Assessment: This playground has some nice playground features to challenge older kids, like the big web climber and the tall spinner as well as offerings for little kids. But the exercise stations may be the most attractive aspect for parents and caregivers.
They have a circuit set up with various exercise stations. There’s an example at the bottom of the post. The playground is completely fenced and set back from any major roads so it shouldn’t be too difficult to do the exercise circuit while your kids play.
