1 / 2Willow Lake Playground
đ Queens, NY
A secluded Forest Hills playground perfect for families seeking quiet play time. Features water sprinklers for summer fun, toddler-friendly equipment, and clean facilities in a peaceful setting.
I was impressed to find this playground right in the middle of Forest Hills! I was taking my dog for a long walk and found it at the end of the cul de sac, next to the assisted living complex. It has an access ramp, jungle gym with safety surfacing, kindergarten swings, basketball and handball courts, public bathroom, spray showers, benches and game tables. Pretty cool!
đ Family Action Verdict
This hidden gem in Forest Hills is perfect for families seeking a quieter playground experience, especially during summer when kids can enjoy the water sprinklers. The secluded location and good facilities make it ideal for peaceful play, though parents should be aware that maintenance quality can vary.

âWho doesn't love a clean playground?! We love coming to this playground because it's very secluded there's always seating available for parents and caregivers. And the children just love playing in the water sprinklers during the summer time. You can always see that there's a staff there cleaning and raking the leavesâ

âI have been to this place during the summertime and that it was a nice and wonderful day that there were many people there resting, sitting on the benches and relaxing. Also, that kids were playing on the swings, playgrounds, and sprinklers. The restrooms there were clean.â

âGoogle map showed some photos and this playground are decorated with some insects which my kid loves . But it is not cleaned well with many garbage and fallen leaves, though the other ground for sports looks clean. Also, the bench around the playground are very sticky . It is not only sticky when you touched , but after touching it that my hand is sticky too. Oh, so bad.â
