A beloved Long Island park combining a chlorinated spray area, landscaped botanical gardens, a scenic pond, and wildlife. Toddler-friendly with ample seating, clean restrooms, and well-kept walkways throughout.

Such a beautiful greenway! The garden is a daily new addition to this park, and it’s been so wonderful walking through here. There’s so much to see such as live gardens, flowers galore, water fountains, and a beautiful pond. (Updated review July 2025) I’ve taken my toddler here quite a few times to the children’s water park and I give it a 5star review as well!! It’s truly the best place to take toddlers to, and even older kids as well. I’m so happy I’ve started coming here!!

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Families with toddlers and young children get the most from this park, especially on hot days when the chlorinated spray area delivers relief. Grandparents love the ample seating and senior-friendly walkways. The botanical gardens and wildlife pond extend the visit well beyond the spray area for all ages.

β€œLovely , lovely place ! Traveled all the way from Coney Island just for the experience and my daughter loved it. Clean, clean bathrooms, not crowded, a lot of space andddd the BEST part is…the water is CHLORINATED. The only thing is I wish the playground had a little shade or awning because when the SUN is high in the sky those slides are a death trap. Lol. But we can’t control Mother Nature can we. All in all great experience, we will be back.”
