We did end up coming right before close when in was empty because but layout of the splash pad is nice. My girls loved playing in the water. I’m there is a small fee, but worth it to me at least.

This is the location where the free summer lunch program is run. There is a splash pad, a large play area with a playground, a gazebo with lots of seating, port-a-potty, a walking path, a large grassy area, and cute little tables that have checkers tops. This splash pad is free and open to the public.

Beautiful! We moved here from AZ last week and it was such a nice little surprise to find this cute playground with a splash pad, amazing playground, gardens, bike/running trail, basketball and tennis courts.

Really unique playground with a very cool and enormous climbing structure. It also has a very nice free splash pad and a toddler garden. I highly recommend this park for kids over 3. DeKalb park district did an amazing job installing this park. Love it!

I don't recommend going here. It's in a bad part of town. The kids are wild. Noone watches them. They cuss and bully kids trying to have fun. My 3 year old got ran over with a bike at the splash pad, no caring parent in sight. Zero supervision with wild animal kids. Avoid at all costs.
