    This is a nice play area with a tall climbing spot that even my 10 year old enjoyed. It great for an indoor break and an easy spot to grab a quick lunch with kids.  more »

    Spent time here on a hot day and kids needed a break after all the walking. Worth a visit. Cool air recharged the kids for more walking.  more »

    The playground is very large and has a Luckey Climber, which is great for young kids. Upstairs, there is a small auditorium that can be used for events like weddings and conventions. It’s also just a nice place to hang out at, though it can get a little noisy (especially when the Chaos sculpture is running).

    My oldest son likes to play there. I personally liked the old playground more. But the new one could definitely use a deep cleaning.
