It is an elementary playground so it's on the smaller side but there is definitely quality here. There are two slides-one is pretty fast and steep which my little daredevil loves (riding on my lap of course). The other is a twisty slide. We enjoy all of the musical components as well as the spin apparatus (see attached photo). There is lots of room to run around (or waddle like my boy). Pre-COVID 19, it was usually very crowded on weekends. Our last visit was a few days before playgrounds closed and we were the only people there. We definitely plan to return once restrictions are lifted.

The park features a basketball court, a picnic shelter, a playground, and picnic tables. It seems a little out dated and trashy. You will find 2 fenced in playgrounds areas here. The larger playground area, which is designed for older kids, has has a large jungle gym with a rock climbing structure, monkey rings, slides, bridges, tunnels and canopies. There is also a bank of traditional/ADA swings here. The area is lined with wood chips, with a rubber mat path going down the center. The other playground area, which is designed for pre-schoolers, has a small jungle gym with a rock climbing wall, a small canopy, a small rock climbing wall and a couple of slides. It seems much older and worn than the one on the other side. There is also a small blue wooden house, a mock pirate ship, a rocker animal and a few plastic tables and cars that you would get from a department store in this section as well. The area is lined with rubber matting and sand. It was not my favorite area to say the least. In between the two fenced playground areas, you will find a few benches to sit. The picnic shelter has a bunch of picnic tables under it and is in decent shape. The basketball court is a full court and is in fair shape. The park has a fair amount of green space to play, but the grass does have a large bald spot in the front that is just dirt and a few patches near the basketball court. The back side of the park, across the walkway, is where you will find some picnic tables and grills in a shaded area. This park needs a little TLC and updates to get it back up to speed. It is a fair park and would be an ok place to pass time if you are in the area. It would not be my go-to or destination park though. It does have a lot of potential though and I hope that it makes the needed modifications to reach that potential.

The splash pad wasn't active yet but I imagine it gets crowded despite it being small. Here's a tip: the playground at the elementary school is nicer and open to the public when school is out. It's right up the big hill and provides more equipment.

You won't find any playground equipment here but there are a TON of toys from diggers to a trampoline to cozy coupes and similar ride in toys. There are a couple of swings but the real focus here is on the toys. As has been noted previously it is VERY sandy, even outside the sandbox. On our visit there were quite a few hornets within the sand area so I was mostly steering clear of that. This park is very tiny and can get crowded quickly, which is not ideal for social distancing all of the time. Parking is easily found on the street. Also, just as an FYI, there is a playground relatively close (Martha Custis Park, I believe) if you want more apparatuses to climb.

Even my 12 year old played happily for a bit after his soccer practice ended and all three would have stayed longer if I had let them (but it was long past sunset and time for dinner).
