“Interesting new Playground for kids of any age. Climbing, sliding, hiking, landing, swinging, carrouseling, balancing and viewing are great here. Very safe, detailed, connected. Rubber coloured safe surface. Clean and comfortable sits for parents. Far from driveways or parking lots. Great pleasure for both children and caregivers”

“Great place to come with the kids. Beautiful Cafe next door. Field and kinda like a wee bike track around the park for the wee bikers to go around. No shade over playground. But massive tree with shade for picnics. Love taking the kids here!”
