Creative outdoor playground where kids can splash in shallow water, slide down mud slides, and build forts. Well-staffed with lifeguards and perfect for active, messy play.

Loved it! Clean, well maintained, staff everywhere watching the kids, 'lake' is super shallow (like child size knee high). Enough variety to keep the kids' interest. Outdoor Showers and changing stalls.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Perfect for active families with kids who love getting messy outdoors. The shallow water features make it particularly suitable for younger children (toddler to elementary age). Be prepared for a muddy, wet adventure - it's designed for kids who want to build, splash, and explore rather than pristine playground equipment.

β€œI came here as a kid in the 1970's and 80's, and we brought our kids in the early 2000's. Hopefully I will be able to bring our grandkids here one day. Just a safe, fun place for kids to play outside.”

β€œWe had an absolute blast at Adventure Playground! It’s a charming, smaller park tucked up a short hill, packed with creative and active play opportunities. There’s a shallow pond with inner tubes and paddles, a plastic-lined mudslide (more of a safe water slide than true mud), and a rope bridge that crosses part of the pondβ€”huge hit with the kids! There are also elevated, treehouse-like platforms with large blocks for fort-building, climbing structures, chalk boards for drawing, and dirt tables for sensory play. Tons of space to run around, and plenty of shaded picnic tables and chairs for relaxing. Need-to-knows: Entry is $4 per child. They accept card and cash. Closed-toed shoes are required and must stay on at all times. You can bring your own food, and there are lots of spots to sit and eat. Two shower heads for rinsing off and several changing stalls available. Porta-potties are inside the gate; flushing toilets are near the parking lot. Snacks are sold on-site. I saw seven staff members the day we wentβ€”all super attentive and engaged. We knocked over a tub of water in a water fight. Mid water fight brave staff entered the fray to refill our bucket despite other buckets being around. πŸ˜† A large day camp (about 20 kids) showed up while we were there, and it still didn’t feel overcrowded or chaotic. Hope this place stays around for yearsβ€”it’s a gem for active, messy, outdoor fun!”

β€œGreat place for kids to be kids and have fun. Water is shallow so it is safer for small kids ( 2 life guards on duty). They have Inner Tubes, mudslide, rope bridge, water gun tubes, giant Legos, axe throwing and giant connect four. Plenty of shade for adults under trees, chairs everywhere. Lunch tables. Porta potty's, one outdoor shower and changing rooms.”
