Northwood II Playground

Tucked right up against U of M’s North Campus, this little playground is mostly known to the grad student families and university housing residents who actually live in the area. It’s a no-frills spot — don’t expect a ton of equipment — but for the Northwood community it does the job. Honestly, its biggest selling point is location: you’re steps from campus greenspace, which gives kids more room to roam than the playground itself might suggest.
