Overall Assessment: This is a much nicer playground than I had expected. I had seen it from Centre Street many times, but because everything is painted blue, it is difficult to see how nice it really is.
It is not a new playground but it is generally in good shape. My son was well entertained by the preschool play structure and was able to be very independent. It also has a marble panel that is (sort of) like a pin ball machine that is quite fun.
The school aged play structure is big with a lot of variety of climbing equipment. The teeter totters looked like fun and I really enjoyed the bouncer. The park is nice and quiet with mature trees offering great shade. It would be a nice place to host a picnic.
