What to Know

The park is free to access with convenient street parking available. Restroom facilities are on-site, but there are no food concessions, so pack snacks and drinks for longer visits.

Seasonal Notes

The splash pad typically operates from late May through early September, weather permitting. The playground and walking paths are year-round attractions, though winter visits offer sledding opportunities when there's snow. Fall foliage around Mill Pond is particularly beautiful in October.
