Area: West Pickering
Age Range: infant to 10 years
Parking:
Weekends - plenty in the Westcreek Public School parking lot
Weekdays - a fair bit in the courts and cul-de-sacs surrounding the park
Ground Cover: pea gravel
Main Equipment:
Accessibility Features: none
Facilities/Other:
Surrounding Park Area: paved walking paths and a small field
Seating: 2 park benches
Shade: minimal morning shade, no coverage for park benches (open pergolas above them)
Overall assessment: A great park for swinging because there are plenty of swings! And if you need a place for kids to run off steam, then just throw them on the log roller for a bit (of which I have never seen until coming to this park). Not a lot for toddlers to do other than swing as the climbing equipment to get to the slides is fairly advanced and spaced apart. It's always nice to be near an open field with a baseball diamond and basketball court for older kids. And finally a park with benches facing the slides!
