We have three words for Winterwood Park Splash Pad: holy water pressure! This newer splashpad has some standard features like a fire hydrant and tall aqua dome post, but what make the splash pad interesting is the incredible amount of water that blasts out if it’s structures. The aqua dome posts usually gently dome water out the top…this one blasted out. Similarly the usually medium sized fountain sprays were as tall as the surrounding trees. Impressive and definitely a way to get very wet. read more
Gardenway Park Splash Pad is a newer pad whose main attraction is a tall green post with a dumping bucket and a spinning flower. The water cycle is quite long and the pressure is high – this is a great place to get very, very wet.
Gardenway Park is quite large. It’s an older park so there is plenty of shade and fields to run in. There are swings and playstructures a short walk away from the splash pad.
We noticed there is also a great hill for tobogganing and an outdoor rink. This is a park we’ll check out in the winter, too. read more
