Overall assessment:
This is a lovely neighborhood playground with equipment to entertain both little kids and big kids. The large, plentiful trees provide great shade and make you feel you are a lot closer to the forest than you really are.
Are there bathrooms/restrooms?
Very few Calgary playgrounds have washrooms. Sometimes you may get lucky using a community centre bathroom but that is never guaranteed.
Here is a list of playgrounds that do have bathrooms nearby or at the park.
