The highest new slide was quite a climb, but my 5 yr old gained confidence after going up his first time and the reward was a very long slide ride. There are about 5 other slides here too that all offer unique climbing experiences to access them. There's plenty of swings and swing-like equipment and 4 major playing sections. I've seen parks get facelifts, but this one was sooo well worth it and they added more parking which got filled pretty quickly the last day before going back to school! All in all, it was a great time and we'll definitely be back!

Parking is good, just be watchful for children running into the middle of the street. I noticed vehicles driving too fast through the parking area when we visited. The bathroom stalls are huge, especially for moms with strollers. There is also a baby changing station with a bag hook in the corner near the door, which provides privacy. Incredible play space that you could easily spend hours in the sunshine. So get out and enjoy it :)

This trip, we drove a different way to get to the waterpark and happened to pass this playground. OMG! Up until now, the Raleigh (NC) playground has been the most EPIC playground we have been to but we think that this one might have just taken FIRST PLACE!! We were absolutely blown away by the sheer size of this playground! There was so much to do!! The play areas were clustered into different types. There was one for little little ones, another for toddlers, other ones for more adventurous kiddos, etc. Some of the climbing structures were quite high. I went up one and admit as an adult was a bit scared being so high. The other concern I had was with some of the "parallel" bar type climbing things... I thought they looked "dangerous" and indeed, one of our kids fell from maybe 10-12 feet and had the wind knocked out of her. She wasn't hurt hurt but it sure scared her (and me.) I loved that the ground cover was either rubberized mats OR turf. The various drinking fountains scattered throughout helped with keeping us hydrated and cooled us off. The one "negative" is actually due to the sheer size of this place. While I was watching one of my kids, the other went to a different play area and my heart stopped for a bit while I searched for her. She was safe but my mind went to a dark place when I couldn't find her right away. This playground does have restrooms! They weren't in the cleanest condition but it was nice to have them. Prepare yourself in advance for the COLD metal seats. Shockingly icey on a hot summer's day. Again, this is such an amazing playground and I am 100% jealous we don't have anything like this in Houston.

My then-7 y/o son was able to climb 8 feet up a structure for its intended use and jump off "on a dare" by other kids and ended up in the ER. I've also assisted with autistic children that elope and get separated due to the multiple exits. There are also multiple places to have a party, first come first served. This also makes things extra crowded. I haven't been there in a while since the heat, but I am hoping they will maintain a good-sized field because independent play (soccer, football, kite flying, etc.) are just as important as playground structures.

There's an older kid side as well as a younger kid side and we've explored both while here. The couple of times we've visited during the daytime, it's never too crowded, which I like. We came for an evening play date once and there were certainly a lot more people, but my son still got to get on what he wanted without a wait. The park also has nice sand volleyball courts, basketball courts a small running trail and a nice sized little fishing pond. One of the best things is that the bathrooms are located in the center of everything so there's easy access and they are typically pretty clean as far as park bathrooms go. Definitely one of my favorites !

There are multiple activities to do at this park for a fun experience. They offer a children's playground with slides and swings as well as a playground for the smaller kids.

There are multiple pavilllions with BBQ grills scattered all throughout the park. In the park, they have a small skatepark where you can practice your latest tricks on your skateboard or roller blades. There is also a splash pad here too that is open to the public during the summer months. They provide a parking lot here with ample parking, so parking should never be an issue. This is a great park to get outside and get some vitamin D, whether you're taking a walk or just letting the kids get loose. When planning a birthday party here, reservations are not required, but is a first come, first serve basis. They have a bulletin board here where you can check out the latest events the city has planned for upcoming events and any questions or concerns you may have with Mansfield City Parks.

Overall, it was a really nice park and we walked the entire area. Will definitely visit again!

There are also multiple BBQ grills at this location as well. They have 2 children's playgrounds with slides and swings. This park also connects to the Walnut Creek Linear trail that goes all throughout the city of Mansfield City Parks. On the trail, there are plenty of picnic tables with benches sitting underneath trees that provide plenty of shade. There are also many of Texas's state flowers, the beautiful blubonnet, as well as the state tree, the pecan tree all throughout the park. Over this is such a great park to spend your precious off time whether you're looking to let the kids loose and play on the playground or maybe get a nice run/ walk on the trails or even maybe ride your bike. There are restrooms on site, and your furry friends are allowed as long as they are leashed.

There's a small park, picnic tables, lots of shade, ducks roaming and you can go fishing or canoeing in the Lake. The crowd is filled with a mixture of everything. Families grilling, dogs all around, teens hanging, families playing volleyball, people witnessing. Lots of fishing going on. Summer time was definitely alive. The crowd stays all the way til dusk too. Also, they have really nice restrooms! It's a big brick building that has the Men's and Women's Restrooms beside each other. The Women's Rest Room was clean but, a little stuffy. There were two stalls. One was small and a little messy and the other was large without a door? Soap dispenser was filled and hot water was available too! My one suggestion would be, the path should lead to the R.R, instead of having to walk through the grass. The trails were alot smaller than I expected. They we're simple and surrounded the lake. The Park is also secured by the Police. If your family member has not returned from the lake after dusk, for more than forty-five minutes. The police will go looking for them. If your looking for a place for a family outing, I would suggest coming here. It's fun and safe!

Parking is relatively easy due to the large parking lot that is provided. The park is easy access from the freeway as well or from entering one of the many shopping centers in the area.

There are also 4 baseball fields nearby where you can play a quick game of baseball, softball, or maybe even kickball! There are restrooms, BBQ grills,picnic areas, and more. This park also connects to the Walnut Creek linear trail and leads to many of Mansfield City Parks in the area. This park has trails and a map of where the trails go to at the front of the park. They have landmark numbers all throughout the trails just in case an emergency or accident happens on your adventure. The cool thing about this park is that there are trails that lead under the freeway when crossing through, and I find that amusing. Dogs and pets are allowed but must be on a leash at all times when visiting. Overall, this park is great for anyone who enjoys the great outdoors and likes nature. This would be a great park to host birthdays and other special events for family fun.
