A nice little playground for the kids. The park has a wonderful community building with good parking. A local group of enthusiatic gardeners have worked hard over the past few months to create a large number of vegetable garden plots and the results are very impressive. The park has lots of potential picnic trees for shade, and ample space to run around.

Perfect playground if you have little ones. I go here with my 5y, 3y and 10m baby. 5y can open the gate by himself so lots of freedom for him. Lots of space around the playground for biking, playing ball and running. It also have public toilets and water fountain.
