This isn't about the park itself, it's about Tremont Pool, the public pool located by the park…read more I went with my friends almost everyday during the summer, everything was great, the prices were a bit extreme and it racked up quickly. However it soon proved to me that it's not even worth the money. The last time I went, I took my 6 year old little brother. Along with my older brother, his girlfriend and her daughter who was 2. A whole mess of things happened, and I was left with the children, which I was okay with, however problems happened with the 2 year old, and I had to get out, leaving my little brother in close eyes view, in the kiddie pool. I turn my back for 2 seconds and he's vanished. From what he said after, he was trying to swim out to our older brother, and started drowning. I saw this and immediately jumped in the 4ft of water, to save my little brother, mind you he was directly in front of 2 lifeguards, who weren't paying any attention what so ever. I did make a comment, a rude one, because this is their job. Yes leaving him unattended wasn't the responsible thing to do, but that is exactly what the lifeguards are there for. I took him out of the water, and got him relaxed, then walked over to tell my brother and his girlfriend what happened, also asking them to go grab the toy that some other family had stole from us, and in the corner of my eye I see the same lifeguards in the corner, laughing at me. This didn't bother me any, but it's the blatant disrespect this pool has shown, especially to a 6 year old. I reported this behavior, and the situation to the manager, who was also extremely careless. He was at least professional, and said he would talk to the lifeguards, but that truly isn't good enough. Being a lifeguard isn't just about spending all summer at the pool, you are there to try and save lives. We need to stop hiring disrespectful, incompetent teenagers.

Great park! Lots to do!…read more We visited this park one afternoon and it was a hot day! The playground structures are large and inviting. There are several different types of activities to do, including a scavenger hunt for little animals all over the play area. There are just a few entrances to the play area so you don't need to worry as much about little ones running off before you can catch them! There is even some shade nearby to spend a few minutes out of the sun on a hot day. The library next door has a bathroom, so you really don't need anything more!

There is a decent-sized parking lot available.

You can get a nice walk in with the looping combo of paved trail and boardwalk/bridges. There are a few shelters and trees around to help with the sun a bit. On the far end is a playground, with a very nice large shelterhouse with picnic tables. The playground is a lot of wood, metal, and climbing nets, and has sections for ages 2-5 and 5-12. By far the biggest draw appeared to be the very tall, fast slide, accessible via climbing net. There are benches available, and play shades available in one section. A nice sized parking lot is available too.

There is parking located right next to the play area, which is mostly fenced. The large wooden castle structures are sure to draw the eye. There is a ton for kids to explore - plenty of things to climb, jump, slide, etc on. There is also a little free library (though it was empty on our recent visit - perhaps it is stocked during the school year?), a sand box type area, though it appeared to be filled with dirt (which my kid loves so it was a huge win), kid-sized picnic tables, a log seat and table combo, swings (traditional, tire, and accessible) and more. There are a couple spots of shade with seating located around the playground, which was great for a hot, sunny day. Very fun playground!

It's connected to the Alum Creek Trail, which runs along the creek. This is a good stopping spot. It doesn't have restrooms but it has a shelter house and water fountains. There's good open spaces for playing and sports. It's not big but Cooper Park is nice. It's connected to the bike trail so you can get around to other parks.

Parking for the park is either on the street, or you can try to find a spot in a parking lot which is accessible from Walnut Street. While the park is small, it crams quite a bit into a very small footprint. The park contains a pretty awesome playground. Some of the play sets are pretty futuristic and have some really awesome designs. This was nothing like I had growing up. We had that crazy, squeaky merry go round that you would spin as fast as possible to see who flew off first, or threw up, and the half dome jungle gym which for some reason was always placed over a concrete slab. This park has a fort, some awesome swings, and a great fountain feature you turn on with the palm of your hand. In addition to the play ground, this park has an ingeniously designed shelter, throwing back to a train depot, and the bricks are laid out to look like a pair of railroad tracks. There are also water fountains and a bathrooms on the read of this shelter, along with several plaques giving you historical tidbits. This small park is also a launch point for portions of the Erie to Ohio trail which pass through Westerville, namely Towers trail, which has several branches, including one that leads to the nearby Hoover Reservoir. Most notably, and the namesake, are a grove of oak trees, 8 of which have a plaque in honor of each of the United States Presidents which came from Ohio. An additional oak tree has a plaque which states "Who will be next?"

I'm almost 30 so there's no way I've gotten the courage to climb it yet. Maybe one day. Lol There's a few different jungle gym pieces and quite a few swings. Also a handicap swing which is so neat and inclusive. There's a little water park for the kids in the summertime and large swing benches along the water park which are fun to sit on in any weather. It's very relaxing there and we sometimes take books or snacks and sit in the grassy patch to enjoy watching life go by on nice sunny days. There's a Dairy Queen right down the road from here so sometimes we walk there first and bring treats back to enjoy in the park. Our pup likes the kids size peanut butter sundae best. There really is a lot jampacked in a small area here but this is a pretty neat park to have close to home. If I had kids I could definitely see myself spending a day here. Kids seem to love the water park that shoots water out of the ground. I mean, how could they not love that?! Lol I love it and I'm an adult! There is plenty of parking on the street in the neighborhood and also right behind the library. There's so much parking behind the library.
