★★★★★Jenny White

This park is pretty cool. I work from home less then a mile from here and have a 18 month old babe. We have a nanny come 5 days a week for 4 hours SPECIFICALLY to take the babe to this park or the library. He gets to see other kids here and there is a dogpark and some water works as well. Very lucky to live nearby!

★★★★★Greisse Villarroel

This park is great, all the facilities are in good condition and they keep it clean and tidy. An excellent place to spend as a family. It also has a place where water comes and it is very fun for children.

I love taking my 4 grandkids here, and they love going here too! They never want to leave when it's time to go home. They have a basketball court with adjustable basket. There are swings, slides, monkey bars, miniature play house, and an indoors bathroom. There's also a doggie park and water fountain. There is also plenty room for just running around. The playground closes at dusk, and it is on public transportation, Metro buses 30's or I can catch the 96 and walk down Wisconsin Avenue. There is a diverse amount of people who bring their children here. Some children ride their bikes, scooters, or skates. There is also peace at this playground, never no confusion. People are always amazed at my grandson's basketball skills since he was 2 years old. I highly recommend this playground to take your young ones.
