Showing the actual texture of owner feedback makes the park page much more useful than a bare directory card.
It is a nice park with a Pavillion. We attended a birthday party there. There is playground equipment, tennis courts, volleyball courts, horseshoe pits, and bocci ball courts. The restrooms are in a building, so not outhouse, and they are kept clean and well stocked.
Temp over 90° and humid. And the price of $2 per child for residents is perfect! My 8 year old and 10 year old loved it, plenty of water toys to keep cool with. There were only about 10 kids there so not crowded. And there was shade to sit in for me.
Love this splash pad! Toddler time from 10-11am on Tuesday and Thursday. Cheap entry. Friendly staff and great facilities. There is also a great playground in the park about 50 feet from the splash pad. Lots of fun for the kids on a hot day.
This is my favorite park! Bigger kid and little kid oriented. Now they have a splash pad which is even cooler! Only downside is there is not enough share, a nice breeze but those hot summer days that park becomes a desert of heat. With the spash pad there its better now. Shelby Twp and Utica residents allowed only though.
My grandkids had a blast here. They were particularly enamored with the giant bucket drenching them every two to three minutes.
