Description
An extensive playground with multiple areas to play. There was plenty to climb, slide and swing. There were games painted on the ground and basketball hoops. There is also a large field with a baseball diamond. There is a nice nature trail also. We even saw some deer. There are plenty of benches for parents and a picnic table.
