    Beautiful playground surrounded by nature! Lots of space, clean, and well-designed for kids of different ages. My son loves the zipline and climbing nets. Great place to spend a few hours and explore the Watchung Reservation nearby! There’s a great variety of play structures for different ages — from big climbing towers and slides to smaller areas perfect for younger kids.

    Love this place. My son is still a little young for some parks and this has options for both as separate play areas. The setting is fantastic and you can really make a day out of it with hiking and picnic areas nearby.

    Kids had a BLAST!
    Clean, well-kept and sturdy. An interesting amalgam of fun and "safe" 😁 as the floor seemed to be made out of a rubbery, real-looking wood chips that had a cushiony feel. The design, layout and aesthetics of the activities/obstacle courses were very nice. Some of the larger spots looked like a real tree! And another like a REAL large rock that the kids could climb up and down.
    There were two areas: one designated for kids 2 to 5 and the other from 5 to 13.
    Oh... And there was a cool-mist water/cooling area with these BIG flowers!
    Made me wish I was a kid again.

    Well maintained playground and park area. Kids have good play areas, small rock climbing area mist sunflowers. Part of Watchhung reservation.
    There are good small trails also nearby, which kids will enjoy as they go through pretty thick woods. A lot of birds and insects could be seen on the trail.
    There is a small lake, and there is a trail that goes around the lake as well. The lake is not clean, so can't go near water.
    The natural area has stuffed animals exhibits and the details for reading which kids will enjoy. Overall a good place to take small kids for a weekend afternoon
