    They have nice seating and safe looking play structures. There are usually lifeguards nearby for the pool and it's very well maintained. + There's often food available next door from the parkdale farmers market!

    A great place to take your family for a day at the park. A good variety of structures for children of various ages to play on and a good sized wading pool for the hot summer days. As a bonus, it's right next to the Parkdale Market to get some fresh, healthy fruits and vegetable snacks, or within walking distance of several other treat locations.

    Excellent park for young children. The play structure is fenced in. Wading pool operates in the summer months. There is a bathroom that is open when the pool is open, as well as being available at other times. There is also an open space for bigger kids, and parking. Not to mention being right next to the market where you can buy fruits and vegetables.

    I love this park! There is a section of grass; but, it's hard and relatively flat, making it relatively easy to navigate. It includes a spacious accessible washroom. It had a key pad on the door, but was open. I'm not sure who I would have contacted if it weren't. The only negative; but, it's pretty big!

    It's more like a green space for kids rather than a park :) but really great, as there is sand box with toys and additionally has all the regular climbing attractions. It is completely closed, so no dogs can run in, which I find amazing.

    Great place for kids. There is a fence around the play structure to keep kids in, and other people out. There are clean public bathrooms. It's next to the Parkdale Market, which provides a beautiful view of fresh flowers. I highly recommend it.

    Lovely adjacent Market and a sweet park. Too bad that the restrooms beside the playground weren’t open midday

    The only place in the world that you can look right at a woman and ask "How firm are your melons?"

    Beautiful park, great for outdoor festivals!

  • 5/5 Dawn 6 years ago on Google • 10 reviews
    Loved this park for my 1 1/2 year old. The various toys were great to keep him occupied. The wading pool was very cold though, and he didn't enjoy it although everyone else did!

    Great park - good for all ages of kids. There is a wading pool, fenced in playground, swings and a covered area for picnics. Plus it is right next to Parkdale Market.
