River Hollow Park Playground

Locals with toddlers have basically claimed this place as their own, and honestly, fair enough. The swings are perfect for the 2-5 crowd, the shade trees actually do their job on hot summer days, and there’s enough open grass to let little ones run without you having a heart attack about traffic. Pack a cooler and use the BBQ area — the picnic setup here is genuinely good, not just a couple of sad benches. The pond nearby makes for a nice stroll after lunch, and the whole spot stays quiet enough that you can actually enjoy it.
