Sunset Park is one of my favorites anyways, but this little addition makes it extra fun with toddler sized play equipment.

• Restrooms.

Concourse Park also got a lot of recommendations from parents. I have spent extended amounts of time here! The playground is awesome.

More than one parent suggested this park and I know it's a favorite for those who live in the area. There are little spring riders and a nice compact little playground. Some complain it's dated, which it is. But others don't mind the classic feel because it means it's usually not too crowded!
