Good playground

Best for families with children of varied ages seeking a clean, safe outdoor space in Northeast Philadelphia. Parents of young girls especially call out the welcoming, well-supervised feel. The rec center alongside the playground extends visit options when weather changes. Pet owners frequent the grounds, so keep young children aware.

“This summer, we've visited many playgrounds in search of a well equipped, safe, clean, and safe & friendly neighborhood playground for our 3 girls to play without having to worry about dealing with children who are either bullies or whom have disgusting vocabulary. It's hard I know these days, but we search anyway. This playground was super clean, the equipment was up to date and in very good condition. The children there were very friendly and so was the staff at the recreation center which was open until the playground's closing time. The park also has a separate area with water sprinklers for the kiddos to cool off. There are plenty of benches and picnic areas with picnic tables, too. I wish I had taken more pictures, but it was late. I wish I had made Chalfont Playground our first stop this day because we would have spent the day there for sure. I highly recommend this park.”

“Active & pretty clean playground for children. There appears to be a rec center, also. I frequently see organized softball games when passing. I sometimes go in late evening to allow my dogs to run for exercise. Walk your dog first or clean up after them so the gates won't be locked. There's no dog park around for us to use.”
