This place was a nice splash pad, but there is a charge for entry of $1.50 per person in the water. So we only paid for the kids. The seating is kind of limited, but there's a large shaded area with pine needles on the ground, so if you bring a blanket or chairs, you can utilize that space to escape the heat. We went in August and it was blazing hot. The bathrooms were not really nice and smelled like urine. I've been back to the park on a different day and the bathrooms smelled like urine then too. The parking requires quite a walk. My kids are bigger, but if they were all toddlers, I would bring the double stroller. My kids enjoyed the water for a long time and were not ready to leave when we parents were, which is a good indicator that we could return for future fun. There's a nice playground in the same park, and a train and carousel, so there's a lot to do, but I'm guessing those cost money. So if you don't want your kids begging you to do extra activities, then don't go here. The train circles the playground regularly. As for the splash pad, I'd probably go somewhere free next time. If they improved the bathrooms, then I'd feel like the entrance fee was making a difference. But it was too run down for me to justify paying for a sprinkler pad when there are other options that are free.
