General Description:
A brand new, clean, well-designed playground, it features a climbing structure with slides and a set of four swings (2 infant, 2 big kid). The climbing structure is fun, but not incredibly challenging. My 8-year-old only explored it for a bit before moving to the swings. The woodland theme is adorable and carries throughout, including the benches. So far it is typically pretty empty, but this will likely change once more people discover it. Important note! There are no public restrooms nearby.
Overall Impression:
This small but mighty playground is perfect as a fun short outing for small and mighty kids.
