Not a bad place at all!! Couldn't find it a first, because its tucked away behind the basketball courts and hockey rink, but when we got there it was all we had seen in pictures. Good experience...

An excellent Park with lots of stuff for kids. So many different things to do, the entrance is a little hidden so you have to drive to the right end of the parking lot in the right corner of the parking lot to find it
