A great place for kids to enjoy. Plenty of space.
This is a properly designed park for the kids.
There is water play area, various slides for the kids nicely spread out across the park.
There is a cafe too along with swimming pool.
There is open barbecue section too here
Overall good one
Relatively well designed park for children. The park is well spread out with lots of fun things like water featured and slides for children.
There's a cafe close by too.
Only down falls in design are a lack of fencing to the main road and the toilet being about 200m away.
Definitely recommended for families as there are also BBQ facilities available.
Good Place for a family BBQ. Quiet and Calm with beautiful view.

Quite extensive wooden structure which includes high twin slides, high scrambling wall, tunnel, shop front, rope bridge, balance beam, monkey bars, climbing wall, walkway, fireman's pole, tic-tac-toe, steering wheel, clock, abacus, steps, disks on a vertical pole, curved slide and hanging disks. Also springer, telescope to look over the sea, swings and three dolphins to ride on. The whole area is set on a nice spongy base.
Great guides. Lovely bush walk. Great work being done here.
Clean, well maintained park with lots of variety and bike path near by. Water splash area in summer too. ☀️
Unable to access with elders with walkers, sadly, as we could not drive in. I am very interested in the evening nocturnal walk though .
Loved the park. Kids had awesome fun with the twisted slide but maybe not the safest park for toddlers.

If you have younger than 3 year old kids, I wouldn't recommend.
Great place for kids. The splash pad seems pretty good even in winters you can bring your kids for other swings and slides. My son loves the swans and Ducks that swim in the pond

Good playground for the kids. 2-3 areas for kids to play. Plenty of cockatoo’s around and kangaroos will often congregate around here after 5pm. Too much kangaroo droppings to place a picnic blanket. But plenty of picnic tables.

Beautiful spot! Everything you need for a kids day out is nearby - cafe, toilet, water fountain, shade clothes, sunny sites and sand.
Great for kids and young kids to play or different kinds of ages allow for
A nice hidden skatepark behind the local CFA. It is well made, smooth and has good ramps and rails. If you are looking for a private afternoon of skating without multitudes of kids cutting you off then this is the place.

It is your typical back and forth design, with an embankment ramp at one end and a quarter pipe at the other. The fun box/transfer ramp is mellow and easy to Ollie over.

We went to this really nice playground with the kids during the school holidays. It was a clear, sunny day, perfect for some outdoor fun. The playground was great for both the little ones and the adults.

What made it stand out were all the different play equipment they had. I've never seen such a variety in one place before. Plus, they had a barbecue area, a nice café, clean restrooms, and you could even go for bike rides nearby. The best part was the big lake where you could watch the little fish. It was a fantastic day out for the family!

It is a very nice park that is suitable for many ages. There are bathrooms nearby and also a water fountain. It's an opened layout allowing plenty of space for the kids to run around. The equipment is relatively well maintained, a very small amount of vandalism, unfortunately. Highly recommend if you need a place to burn off some steam for the kids.
Nice park, plenty of playing space for the kids. Wetlands is beautiful with some wildlife. Loved the pair of black swans. There are a couple of electric barbeques, but we didn't use it

This was such a good find and has a large variet of equipment for kids of various ages. We have a year old child and there was plenty of things to do for him. Highly recommended 👌
Great park with 2 large slides for older kids and 1 smaller one with toddler access.

When you want to give your kids some idea of traffic rules, here is a good place to come. And there is a fence around most of it to stop little ones from taking a runner.

Only Downside was there was a lot of debris on the "road" so I don't know how often it's cleaned up. That brought the look of it down a little.
Simple and smart setting. Skate park and dirt track for the bikes, scoots and boards. Playground with monkey bars for a quick play.

Tennis courts available as well. The horse riding rings surround the reserve so you will see, hear, and smell the horses if the winds blowing right.
Nice safe place to teach your kids how to ride. The road is made of soft rubber so they'll struggle to hurt themselves. It's not particularly big so best for young toddlers 2-4 years old I'd say. It's really good to have something like this in the neighbourhood.
Need to be continuously maintained... Dog walkers without leash n big sized dog without muzzle are potential threat for kids
Awesome equipment, lots of bins, taps and seating for the parents whilst the kids play!
Playground with a view
Would be very cold here in winter/spring
Grass needs mowing

Fantastic playground with lots of areas for three kids to explore. Good mixture of traditional playground equipment like slides and swings, but also some more exploratory areas for kids to climb and play with sand and rocks and water.

Actually pretty great. The amenities are amazing, always clean. The grass hasn’t had thyme to dry so it’s a big soggy and muddy at the moment. The area is massive and well designed.
Pretty nice space the for area. Lots to do for all ages. I’d come here again.

Bbq, toilet, kids play area, beach access, green grass. Lovely area to sit in the sun and enjoy a picnic.
Great playground with challenging equipment for various ages! Also had a small play area and equipment suitable for 1 and 2yo level also. Nice grassed area. Plus shelter, seats and a BBQ area with bins and water station. But no toilets.
Nice little playground, with couple of hot plates and benches. benches are not shaded. A cycle track and walk track along the rocky beach from here... ample parking space available

Nice little play area for the kids… well maintained and creative! Excellent views and the toilets are nearby.
Great place
To
Take the kids and especially in summer as this is also a water park with limited attractions but good for toddlers when introducing them to play around water and a great place to cool off please note no swimming or ponds available these are just little spouts of water that come out of some of the play equipment. Overall kids had a ball will be coming here again
A great innovative park especially for the young children. Many great areas to explore however the big pebbles near the cement structures (maze) behind are dangerous. I was with my grandchildren and one pebble came flying past my grand daughter narrowly missing her head. It was thrown with a great force by two boys playing and split into three on the concrete structure. Perhaps these need to be replaced. We have written to Parks Victoria about this incident.

This is a beautiful park that has just been built. The design is very ingenious. It looks like an ancient ruin. The park is located on top of a hill, so you can enjoy the wonderful view.
Great place for kids. New development done by Council. Must visit for all you g kids. Can get a little busy given it’s such a beautiful place. Great views too

ビーチそばのもう1つの公園です。
こちらは、遊具が滑り台ひとつしかありません。
BBQセットがあるので、BBQするならという感じでしょうか。ただ、付近にスーパーマーケットはないです。
芝生がかなり広い(半島の先まで続きます)ので、子供を走り回らせることはできます。

道路挟んで植物園のトイレがあります。

This is a park near the beach.
There is not much playground equipment, but the scenery is very beautiful. There are BBQ facilities and toilets nearby.

⭐️⭐️⭐️

❌Toilets
❌Shade Sail
✅Tree Shade
✅Car park
❌Bins
❌Picnic Area

Entry gate to mulligans flat behind
🚗 allocated car parking spots for park/public

Small playground suited for older children with climbing abilities at one of the entry points to Mulligans Flat.

Playground Information
• two bench’s under metal shelter
• rock climbing dual pentagon sphere structure
• medium structure with rope obstacle, and two attached mechanics. One turntable pole with feet stand, one turntable pole with horizontal holding bar (both turn very fast with body weight)
• footpath and gate entry to mulligans flat
• parking spaces with disabled parking spot

Cons
• not suitable for non climbing children or smaller children

Would not recommend going during 12pm to 3pm during summer heat as the equipment may still be hot
Ome of the best playgrounds in Point Cook. Great structures and play equipment suited for versatile age gaps. Equipment not brand new but well maintained and versatile enough to keep your child entertained between 30min -1 hr easily.
Great playground very spacious with bbq facilities
It's nice playground with a variety of equipment for kids of all ages. There are a lot of picnic tables nearby where you can bring your food, enjoy the view and let kids run amok. The shops and eateries are just across the road which makes it very convenient and very busy especially during public holidays. It's hard to find a parking nearby though there are plenty of dedicated parking places. Also, since the area is full of people on e-bikes and cycles and kids running, you need to be careful when driving or parking.

There are couple of issues though which I noticed. The garbage bins were overflowing since it was public holiday and rubbish was just spilling nearby. The public toilets are nice but the wet toilet tissues were just dumped on the floor which was disgusting. Also there was no soap which is almost criminal during current pandemic time.

If the council takes care of these minor issues, this place could become even better and safer for everyone.
Nice place to visit with your kids where they can play in the playground and you can walk around.
Lot of kids come to play in the evening.

Although the playground is not that big, there are enough facilities and my kids find lots of fun there.
This accessible traffic park is great for toddlers and kids to safely practice their bike/scooter rides. It has stop, give way, humps signs, a bench for parents to sit, and a round about for even more traffic fun. This fun area does make kids ride fast, so, do always keep an eye on them where ever there are.

Great place for children, BUT only if you actually love your kids. Keep an eye on them not your device.

Bubbler, water bottle refill, sunscreen vending machine starting at 50c, loads of elements to the playground for varying ages and abilities. A couple of picnic tables, and picnic benches scattered around for tired parents. The path throughout is a dragon if you can get an eagle eye view.
This park is great if your kids are around 5+ or at least confident climbers. Not really safe for toddlers to go on the bigl play equipment.
We come here quite often with grandchildren. They love the playground. Great range of play equipment. However....the surrounding area could do with some attention. I have no doubt that these areas are tidied up, just not often enough. We live nearby and if one visits through the week, the area is tidy enough. But on weekends it is a different story. Then there is usually rubbish everywhere. Because the bins are usually overflowing with rubbish, there is more rubbish scattered all over the ground around them. The toilets on weekends too, we have often found to be absolutely filthy! There needs to be soap available too. This prevents disease! Not good enough! Visitors must get a very poor impression. I imagine it would be a substantial cost to employ weekend staff but these areas need regular attention on weekends and public holidays. We need to attract visitors not discourage them from returning!
Great place for kids starting to learn to cycle
Nice place has a grill and water station for picnics and shed area as well
Great place, the kids and I had a blast. Good placement of seating for adults. Close to Flower Pot Park so a public toilet in close vicinity would make me give this a 5 star

The park is littered with so much poop. Its disgusting. The play equipment isn't in the best condition either. Little bits broken and quite dirty. Its a shame as halls gap is otherwise such a beautiful place. The rocking horse is the only thing that appeared clean. There are many slides but it's definitely suited for older kids.
Playgrounds like this are superb and located nicely between the caravan park and the shops and near the pool it is ideal for kids. There is something for everyone here.
A nearby picnic shelter also gives it more of a reason to stop and let the kids play. The local pool is also nearby and with grassy lawn areas is a nice place to hang out.
Please don’t feed the kangaroos. They are wild and although cute and cuddly, can be a pest and potentially dangerous if you feed them.
Wheelchair friendly. Kid friendly. Good parking.
Shops across the road if your need food and refreshments.
Good place but bigger would be great

A great place for children and carers of all ages, with plenty of shade and toilets a few metres away (the new type where the doors open straight to the outside so you can send older children and still see them safely while in the playground). There is a childproof fence on the two roadside boundaries and on our most recent visit (late July '18) we discovered some chalk boards at varying heights have been incorporated into the equipment - what a great idea!
Small but great idea

Big skate park on one side, great adventure playground on the other. You can always get a park space, the playground is good for kids from crawling to 8 or 9 ( sandpit, big tunnel slide, tilted roundabout, net swing etc). There's now even a guy selling coffee just outside the playground.
Great fun for the little people!
