It's a lovely park. I do like the umbrellas that cover certain parts of the play area. It definitely helps. It started raining while we were there, so we sat at the sitting/picnic area. It's nice b/c its covered and also has restrooms. Restrooms are always a positive when you have two kids with you. I don't know how old this park is but the all equipment seems pretty new and more modern. Like I have never seen a faux climbing mountain obstacle at a park before. My boys liked the slide b/c it was a taller, so they got to slide faster. Honestly there isn't more I could say. The pictures speak for themselves. But it is very clean and not near the main roads, so you feel safe. Behind the park is a big soccer field. This park has def. moved into the "Top 5" of recreational parks.

The whole riverfront area has that peaceful but still lively feel where you can just walk around, sit down, and watch the water for a while without feeling rushed. The view of the river is honestly the highlight, wide open water, boats passing by, and that calm breeze that makes everything feel slower in a good way. My family and I just wandered around, grabbed a few snacks, and found a spot to sit and people watch. There is something about being right on the water that makes even doing nothing feel like a good time. Kids were running around, couples were taking pictures, and everyone just seemed relaxed. It was clean, easy to get around, and had plenty of space so it never felt overcrowded even with people out enjoying the day. Five stars for a simple but perfect riverfront experience. Great place to walk, relax, and enjoy Jacksonville without any stress at all.

"Information About This Fireworks Spectacular" Celebrating America's 250th birthday (the Semiquincentennial). Cities and states across the country are organizing massive America 250 campaigns to mark 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Because of this historic milestone, the City of Jacksonville expanded its usual Fourth of July footprint into a two-day downtown festival featuring the largest fireworks show in the city's history. Prime check-in locations and viewing spots along the St. Johns River include:Friendship Fountain (1015 Museum Cir.)RiversEdge (1915 RiversEdge Blvd.)Both the Northbank & Southbank Riverwalks. Our thoughts... The fireworks display did not speak to 250 years of celebration to us. Savannah's River Street off Bay Street is by far way better. Honestly. We were like... where's the rest.

It has two playground areas, a canopy with two benches to sit or plan a party, swings, rocking animals, and a nice little trail around it if you choose to do some running around it while the kids play in front of you. It is located right off of Mill Creek Road, perpendicular from a bodega/gas station and right before the Faith Christian Church further back. It is your basic playground for when you need to get the kids out of the house on a nice day, just so you can have some peace of mind. There is also a water fountain. It is a convenient location for the locals, the residents of the apartment complex located right across from it and for anyone in the general area. I frequent this playground with my kids whenever they need to let loose and I can sit, enjoy a book under the canopy (gazebo?) or sit on a bench along the paved walkway in the sun to get some tanning done. If you're in the neighborhood, it won't impress you, but it will give the kids something to do and a way to let off some energy and give mommy and daddy a break for a bit.
