Shepherd Park

Nice park with good activities for young children

Quaint neighborhood park with slides and climbing for young kids. There is a field for group sports.
The kid play area has soft rubber flooring, so there is an added level of protection. Remember to check slides' temperatures before letting the kiddos play. Hot slides are not fun.

Shepherd Park is a wonderful little park with playsets for multiple age ranges of children. We took our son here and he had a ball. The small child equipment in the rear from the entrance was a lot of fun for him and the placement keeps young children far from where they could wander into serious trouble.

There are concrete rock areas and rope areas set up, a larger playset, covered picnic area, and benches. There is a large soccer field with synthetic turf set up adjacent to the play area, with a track around it. The Park is open from sun up to sun down and is popular.

It is part of a block sized development with a community center and Shepherd elementary. The children's subpark is on the Jonquil St. side, closest to 16th St., at the bottom of a hill. Very cool park to check out.

UPDATE: Playground currently closed for maintenance as of April 11, 2023.

Great local park with great play places for younger and older kids... Covered picnic area and small turf field with exercise program pieces incorporated

This is a great playground, aimed at children about 3 - 8. A school next door also has a playground that is sometimes open to the public. No bathrooms :(

Very nice playground and exercise equipment. Turf soccer field and a track. Centrally located along 16th street but also easily accessible from the neighborhood.

Playground equipment needs to be updated for the children to play safely.

A great neighborhood playground and park that is well loved and in top condition.
