What people say
Great park, clean, safe soft play area and the flying fox provides my friend’s kids hours of fun. Climbing wall, swings and slippery dips were also great and a little fort. Not over crowded. Friendly other parents and kids. Loses one star due to no toilets.
Look, it's a playground for kids. I have been there with my sister and she enjoyed it alot. The place is clean and in a good area ( its safe). It has enough to entertain a kid for about an hour but that's pretty much it. The place has nothing to do for adults so grab you phone with you. If your not social, you will be bored.
We regularly take our toddler here. There is a good selection of equipment to entertain him, and other people at the park are generally friendly.
Draws a smaller crowd than Martin place on memorial day. Great space with basketball courts
