Park β€’ Dog park β€’ Barbecue spots

😐 Playground is ok for smaller kids. I think older kids would get bored with it very quickly. It has a sandpit and water pump that is good on hot days. It's got good shade most of the day as well. I think the playground needs a revamp though, to make use of all the space. There is a dog grass area ad... People often mention park, kids, playground, dogs, play, area, good,

    Family friendly urban park. Benches, playground, bike rack and water fountain are located here. No public toilet. Bus stop located at the park. Stopping here are buses 343 to city and Chatswood (weekdays) and 348 to Bondi Junction (weekends). Cafe located at the eastern end of the park. The park is largely a dog-off-leash park. Children’s play area is enclosed by a fence.

    Playground is ok for smaller kids. I think older kids would get bored with it very quickly. It has a sandpit and water pump that is good on hot days. It's got good shade most of the day as well. I think the playground needs a revamp though, to make use of all the space. There is a dog grass area adjacent, which is often full of holes and mud. Also the fence is pretty low so many dogs jump into the playground, which is a bit worrying. All in all its an ok spot.

    We came here for a off leash play for our dog. There was no fence and the park is close to the road, we did not let our dog to play. Kids playground is good, suitable for 2-5 year old kids, fenced.

    Just wish it was bigger. This is predominantly an off-leash dog park with a playground, but not much else. It's central to the big high-rise apartments on the area, so the neighbourhood puppies come here as one of their only local options. It's well kept, but the grass is often ripped up by the dogs.

    Handy local park with kids playground and seating. Lots of dogs play here, but the lack of fencing means it isn’t safe for dogs to play safely off lead. Also, the grass is quite often dead due to being burnt or being flooded.

    One of the only off-leash dog parks in Rosebery but it suffers from poor drainage and the turf struggles in both wet and very dry weather.

    It's definitely a doggo park more than something for kiddies 😜There is a smallish play area for kids, which is just enough, and a decent sand pit 🀩The upsides are the BBQ area, which is nice and clean ❀

    Good place to spend lazy Sunday afternoons and bask in the sun during the winter. There's playground for children and tracks for the joggers branches for people to just have a good time. It is also dog friendly. A small cosy park within the residential area of mentmore avenue.

    "Luv it here & the people from the local community seem to ge very open to sharing.. m= the good thing I find is that kids luv it here ="Especially my 2 cutie ones I bring here frequently as it's their "Local go to"= but also "There are toys there left @ the park that parents donate & all the kids luv their visit there & I feel it also teavhes "Kids to share & know when it's time for them to give it to the next person & go home".... Just needs "More swing varieties -Inckudibg adult, kids, Big crochet betted swing & disabled swing-Should be compulsory in my eyes "!!!πŸ’―πŸ˜‰πŸ‘Œ On an overall luv it though x

    Love this park, it's a great place for dogs to play while the children are entertained in their own pet playground.

    Just a small green space. Seems dog friendly for small dogs. Larger dogs won't get to speed.

    Lots of dogs. Unfortunately the grass hasn't been in good condition for many years.

  • 5/5 Sameer S. 4 years ago on Google β€’ 36 reviews
    A good place to sit and think, day or night. There is a large area for pets (mostly dogs) to run around and play, and a small playground area for the kids. The many different plants that grow here make for interesting scents in the air during the spring and summer months.
