Allison-Henderson Park playground

Tucked into one of Dubuque’s more underrated parks near the University of Dubuque, this playground is a solid go-to for families in the area. Accessibility is a real priority here, which makes it stand out from some of the older setups around town. It’s the kind of spot where you can let kids do their thing while you actually relax for a minute. Close enough to local amenities that you can make a full afternoon out of it.
