The toilets were blocked on the Easter weekend my dog was thirsty and I brought drink bottles for the girls so luckily my dog could use some of the water but there needs to be something for dogs because it's a dog park as well as it kids park but no bubbler and I don't know if the toilets are locked all the time beautiful place beautiful playground lovely area careful water area for little ones

Nice spot to walk the dog. Not fenced but no nearby roads or the like to make that a problem.
