Small park with a nice play ground for kids. Only one road in so its somewhat unusual to find but worth the effort. Picnic tables and walking path.

Great place for playing. Toddlers water sprinklers, slides, airplane and swings. Clean and safe.

A wonderful place to take children to play during the day. The landscape and playground have recently been remodeled and are very pleasing to the eye. The playground is relatively popular so it can get crowded for the kiddos sometimes during peak hours in the early evening.

I love how the Pavillion is in between both the playground and the splash pad. Its shaded more than almost all the other parks. Its kept clean as well. A worker was there cleaning while we were there and even he was friendly.

Peaceful place to go and sit or walk while waiting for a patient at the hospital. The work out machines for seniors are broken, otherwise it is a 5 star park. Playgrounds are awesome.

This park has a good mix of old and new playground equipment. There is a pavilion for hosting birthday parties or other events. Ive only been to the park once, but my two year old loved it. The old, tall rocketship was especially exciting. Ill need to come back during the summer to see what the splash portion of the park is like, but even when turned off, it was interesting for him to explore. Overall it was a good time.

I absolutely LOVE living near Jaycee Park. The park is always buzzing with people and kids enjoying their free time. The splash pad is too small for kids of all ages to access at the same time but its nice having one so close to the park. It would be awesome to have a public pool!!

Nice family park with a splash pad and large playground. The shaded picnic tables are positioned well to watch the kids play. Its never been busy when we have visited.

Review №34

This is such a nice little park! The play structure is covered, so none of the equipment is in direct sunlight. Theres a splash pad that my kids love playing in. The park has a basketball court, a walking trail/loop for those looking to get their steps in, lots of shade trees, a pavilion where you could host a birthday party. The rocketship structure is from the original park that was at this location, and will definitely be a source of nostalgia if you played on metal playgrounds in the 60s - 80s. There are swings but unfortunately they arent in the shade. In all other respects, this park will appeal to all ages in some way or another.

The kids love playing at this park. It comes complete with a playground, basketball court, swing set, splash pad, Rocket slide and a walking trail. It’s space themed and usually fairly clean. I love the fact that it’s really well enclosed so easy to keep an eye on your children at all times.

This is one of the best little parks Ive found. The splash pad is great for my son who is 2 and he loves running around in the water. It has a nice little walking path and a shaded play area. Im sure as he gets older he will still love playing here. They have a big play area with a playset that comes with 3 or 4 slides, some good for smaller kids and as you go up higher, there are some for the older children. They have rocks that look like planets that my kid likes to walk on and climb on. They also have a giant metal rocket ship that gives me a bit of anxiety to watch kids go up in because if they get hurt I dont know how a parent would get to them but all the children that play in it seem to have a fun time. And they also have swings for older and younger kids.

This is a great park with lots to do. There is the playground with plenty of equipment for the kids to climb, slide, and swing on. There is plenty of open field for older kids and folks to play soccer or football. A full size basketball court and during the summer the splash pad is free and open to the public. There is also a gazebo you can rent as well as a hiking/ walking path with exercise stations on it.

Wow, the city outdid themselves here. This is an old park with its iconic rocketship. My husband played at this park as a child. The city did some wonderful upgrades, keeping the old rocketship and using it as a centerpiece for a space theme with newer playground equipment. The park use to be out in the blaring sun in the summer. Sometimes it was so hot you could barely play on the equipment. Now, they have it covered. So, you can play in the shade. New benches, newly planted trees, even a little water play area has been added. There is a sidewalk that winds all up and down the park so you can enjoy a nice stroll or jog. Excellent place.

This has always been a wonderful park; since the 1960s. They are currently upgrading due to a huge increase to new businesses building nearby. The city is creating walking/running trails, more picnic areas, and upgrading playground area. There is a nice tennis and basketball court.
