Rec. King comments revised 11.29.20:

This playground has a lot to offer for kids and parents. This park features a Landscape Structures Inc playground set.

It is registered for 5-12 years old. 

The play set is connected by a monkey bar set between the larger slide set and smaller one. It features 3 slides. One that spirals around at about 5 feet in height. There are two bumpy slides at around 4-foot height. One of the best features of the park is the artificial turf along the entire playground. Also, a great feature for parents with small children. There is a 4-foot chain link fence around the entire perimeter to keep the inside and from wandering off. The location has plenty of shade in the morning time until moves to the West. There are two wooden benches for sitting. There are a few picnic tables throughout the park are, and a place for grilling food. There are public restrooms and outdoor showers for rinsing off sandy feet and bodies for those coming from the beach.
