This is one of our most requested pg’s! We call it the dinosaur playground because that is the theme. It’s a really nice set up and it’s brand new. There usually is a porta potty and there’s a water fountain during the warmer months.

We love this spot! It’s super close for us, so that helps, but the fact that there’s climbing for younger kids + a playground is huge. We have a climber so she uses the climbing stuff as wel as the PG. she likes the pump track but she’s still intimid...

This is a cute spot especially for younger kids. It’s a nice size and you can see everything within the playground. There’s seating and bathrooms but they’re not always open.

This is a drive for us but it has things for literally anyone and everyone. We come for the playgrounds, the pool, the walking, and there’s a couple spots you can eat too. It’s just a huge park overall.

This is a newer playground that has a lot of fun features. It has a zip line, “trees” to climb, and the central focus is a castle. There are bathrooms on site and tables for eating.

This is another playground makeover in Highland Park. It’s definitely a good one for littler kids but my almost 5 year old has a blast here.

We finally hit up this one! It’s a really nice playground and park. Handicap beware—it’s tough to navigate if you have a younger kid who’s going to go back and forth between the different levels. Other than that, it has a lot of nice features and the...

We used to inhabit this playground a lot when we lived closer. It’s a solid playground and it’s also next to the school so you can use the football field/track. It’s also next to a community pool! You could spend a day here in the warmer months with ...
