    It's a great place for kids to come and have fun. The little stream is fun and it's a great spot for a break. Beautiful setting.  more »

    My kids LOVE going to the stream, it's a treat for them and I always attempt to pretend I'm sitting at the beach. My only critique would be that I wish there was more shade and sitting areas...  more »

    Awesome place to get wet. Kid friendly stream of water.

    It's nice, but the white haired elderly security guard is a jerk and will stare you down and follow you around like a criminal if you have a vape in your pocket. He gave me the creeps, wasn't doing anything wrong. Didn't vape around kids. +the kids museum was closed already and no kids around. Be warned the vape police will be on your tail if you have one. And for the record, there were no signs anywhere in this plaza saying that you could not smoke or vape there. So if that's the rule they need to get some damn signs saying so.
