    This Place I Wonderful For Babies, Kids, Adults and Seniors. This Place Has A Soccer Field, A Basketball Field and Another Field That Can Be Converted To A Basketball Court or a Volleyball/Tennis Court. It Has A Babies Playground and A Biggest Kids Playground. Has Swings, Slides, Climbing Tower and Even A Rock Climbing Net. This Place Has A Gazebo But No Grills For A Safer Birthday Party or Get Together. No Dogs Are Allowed Without A Leash. There Is Full Access Bathrooms With Baby Changers And A Water Fountain. You Can Use A Bus To Get There Too If You Are Walking.

    Very cool park. My kids love parks with climbing structures and this one tops their list. There is also a basketball court and a soccer/football field. There are sidewalks perfect for scooters or roller blades. There is a small area of the park for toddlers and there is also a picnic shelter, bathrooms and water fountains.

    This place really deserves 5*, the only reason I’m giving 4 is the big slide broke a year ago and still hasn’t been fixed yet. The slide is one of the main reason a lot of kids want to be here, but unfortunately… It would be so nice if the people in charge take care of this ASAP, so our kids can play here again. Also the bathrooms have been closed for 2 month now and I noticed people go behind the wall and bushes (in the corner of the park) to do their thing…

    I like Rocky Run Park. I think it's a great to exercise the athleticism of older kids, and to provide them a more of challenging obstacle course than your standard playground. The big kid playground primarily consists of a ropes course and the fort at the top with a big slide attached. they have a couple of swing that would accommodate multiple children, but again, not your standard slang. This is the swing where they would lay on it and other kids would push them. As far as the smaller children's playground for ages 5 and under, it has more simplistic features with baby swings and musical structures for them to play with, a sand box, and little cars with springs for them to rock back and worth on. The money definitely went more towards the bigger kids playground, then the little kids playground. Nonetheless, they'll have just as good of a time. There is a soccer turf field, basleyball court, and bathrooms on site too. Overall 4 stars.

    One of my daughter’s favorite playgrounds. The best feature is a towering, challenging rope climbing structure at the center. Also great are a set of round swings (like a modern version of a tire swing) and a revolving circular monkey bar - kids hang on while a tall person kicks off to turn it. Bathrooms, shaded picnic tables, tot lot, soccer field, and ample street parking!

    Great contraption for kids 5-12 years old to climb the rope, walk up the hanging bridge or walk the plank ... the reward is at the very top-sliding all the way down! The round shape swings were awesome too. There is another small playground for younger kids.

    Nice playground ideal for active kids. I recently took my energetic 7 year old here, and she had a blast. She did expend her energy with the climbing ropes and monkey bars. The playground with the climbing ropes is ideal for kids 6+ years. Children younger than this age group may have a difficult time maneuvering around some of the playground equipment. However, I did see a smaller playground on the other side of the restrooms that did look more for children of a younger set. Would definitely visit again when in Arlington area.

    A fun space for the family! There are multiple basketball hoops a soccer field and a track to go along with the playground. They have restrooms available too! Definitely a plus. A fun time was had by all!

    Great park. 2 separate playgrounds for different aged kids, 2 basketball courts, and an artificial turf field with a walking loop around it. There are bathrooms by the little kids playground, but they were closed during our winter visit.

    Used to be a very nice playground and well kept. Recently we visited the playground and found it a hazardous place for kids. The handle wires were torn and spliced basically so that the staples are not covered and they would tear children’s hand. Hope authorities would take care of them.

👍👍 While these soldiers fought and died under the Confederate States Flag, their sons and grandsons fought and died in World War I and II. Today their descendants, men and women, fight and die for the United States of America as proud Americans. Show some respect.
