âVery nice playground, perfect for young children but also kids. Ald the trains passing next to it add some excitement. Friendly atmosphere, 5 minutes walking from the fanciest part of Forest Hills. Highly recommended.â

LIRR trains pass directly alongside the park, a reliable highlight for train-loving kids. Summer sprinklers operate seasonally. Restrooms are on site, and availability can vary.
