Location
Best time
Visit during warmer months to access all attractions including the splash pad and pony rides; the park transforms in winter with ice skating available inside the pavilion for younger children ($20 admission + $5 skate rental)
Visitor tip
The small zoo collection is limited with only a few animals (including prairie dogs), so set expectations accordingly—it's more of a petting zoo experience rather than a comprehensive zoo, best combined with other park activities
Visitor tip
The park is dog-friendly, making it ideal for families with pets who want to enjoy picnic areas, walking trails, and outdoor activities simultaneously
