    For older kids (5-10ish). Good shaded seating. Medium sized park. Half fenced but is by a street.

    Love the remodel. The little zip line thing was cool!

  • 4/5 Mike B. 2 years ago on Google
    Brand new playground equipment! There's a fun "zip line" to ride on. Slides, nets to climb on, things to get dizzy on. Only a few swings. A fun little park.

    One of our favorite parks in the area. There is a Ford school/schoolhouse next to the park. It dates back to the 19th century, (the 1800s). The village of LITH and/or the LITH Historical Society want to turn this into a museum, which is a very nice idea/gesture, (to preserve places like this for the next generations). When we go to this park, I'm able to tell my kids and show them what schools used to look like in the past. There are no bathroom facilities, which I would say is a downside if your kids need to use a restroom.

    Great you really remodeled Park. My boys had a lot of fun,2 and 4y/o. They have a gazebo and a small sitting area. No public bathroom.

    It's a brand new park, so all of the equipment and mulch is up to par. I give it 3 stars because there is nothing for children under 5 years old, except 1 baby swing.

    Attended the monthly Lake in the Hills Historical Society Meeting. The Ford School was reclaimed and refurbished by the Historical Society. A wonderfully restored historical building.
