Overall assessment: A wonderful park for a picnic, and not only because it conveniently has picnic tables, but also has washrooms! Plenty of parking to meet up with friends, play tag through the trees, and explore the small stream and swamp in the park. Not to mention that there is another playground at the top of the hill above the parking lot (review coming soon)!

Playgrounds will be reopening once Ontario decides it is safe to enter Stage 3. The province drives the overall safety measures that each municipality must follow in regards to restrictions until the province allows movement for health care municipalities to move to another stage. https://www.ontario.ca/page/framework-reopening-our-province-stage-2
