A hidden gem of a park in NE Gainesville. Beautiful tall pines give shade to this child friendly area. Kids will love the multi level sky fort play structure. Make sure to walk around the Rotary Club gear also.
My kids love this park ! We've been going to this park my daughter's whole 5 years of her life ! We always have fun here playing zombies, hide n go seek, and swinging . Now my son loves this park alot due to all the things he can climb on and give me a heart attack 😍🥰😍. Great for parties too !
I think the park is ok the kids have fun bathroom are always locked and I think that parking is to far from the park
The park use to be one of our favorites but it’s very unclean. You can’t play in the playground without getting swarmed by flies. One of the slides has a giant hole in it and is taped off.
Nice playground with tall slides, probably the tallest in town! Bathrooms were messy, but worst of all there were people doing drugs, smoking and drinking at the picnic tables- cussing and yelling at each other. Would not recommend, does not feel safe.
When Google exported structured hours, they’re surfaced here instead of being buried in the raw payload.
Embedded map view for quick orientation before visitors head out.
