Accessibility Features: wheelchair accessible
Facilities/Surrounding Park Area/Other:
Seating: 2 park benches at the playground, plenty of boulders around the splash pad to sit on
Shade: no shade over the splash pad itself but some surrounding tree shade around the park and over both benches (late in the morning and early afternoon)
Overall assessment: This is a splash pad with a lot of interactive features that kids will love. The snail shell spins, the tall cattail can be spun, and the reed has spinning water features too! Not to mention the really neat waterfall and stream feature to splash about in at the bottom of the splash pad.

To the far right is the parking lot. Follow the path to the playground and splash pad behind the trees behind the ball diamond. It is a 5-10 min walk for toddlers.
