The playground has something for every age but skews towards kiddos who like to climb and have the coordination to do so. Mom and Dad get a chance to experience real life again, as they can relax within the fence amongst people out and about, tourists, and dog families in the surrounding park.

From Friday-Sunday, Lady Falcon coffee is at the park serving genuinely good coffee, so it’s even more of a treat to be able to enjoy your coffee hot.  Parking is always a challenge in this area but if you go into the residential streets, you can find spots as locals are coming and going, especially on weekends. Overall, I would definitely make an effort to visit this park.
