đ Family Action Verdict
A strong pick for families with children of mixed ages who want free, outdoor recreation. Younger kids get the playground structure; older kids and teens have courts and fields. The seasonal pool extends warm-weather visits. The open, multi-use layout means siblings with different interests can all find something active to do simultaneously.

âCute playground with a variety of activities for children to do: baseball field, soccer space, basketball courts, and playground. There is also a swimming pool area, but it had not opened yet for the year at our time of visit. While we were there, an employee was present performing maintenance on the grounds, which was appreciated. The playground area is a bit worn, with the surface having some sunken areas and surface worn through at places.â

âPool needs serious work. Chipped pavement, unruly guests, etc. Free, but needs serious workâ
