Blackhawk Park playground

The swings here get a workout — they’re genuinely popular, and you can usually find a friendly crowd of neighborhood families hanging around. Parking is easy, which honestly makes a bigger difference than people give it credit for when you’ve got a stroller and a diaper bag. Fair warning though: the restrooms have been hit or miss depending on when you show up, so plan accordingly. It works for all ages, but keep your expectations realistic on the cleanliness front.
