This is one of the best parks in the valley- on the west side anyhow. It has an amazing splash pad that is open April-October. It has 2 separate playgrounds for younger/older kids which is awesome. It does have wood chips which are fine. Not super ideal for the little ones, but I'm not a sand fan. It's always clean here. The grounds are kept nice. There are alot of parks out there and nearby that just aren't made well for younger toddlers- heightwise which is for safety and this park is. My 21 month old doesn't fall off at the end of slides here. This is a great park that doesn't get super ridiculously packed either.
