Howdale Play Area

Howdale has had a bit of a glow-up lately — the renovations have made a real difference, and it’s worth checking out if you haven’t been in a while. There’s a good amount of open grass for kids who just want to run around and burn off energy, which honestly gets underused at a lot of parks. Parents can keep an easy eye on things, which is a nice bonus. Fair warning though: cleanliness can be hit or miss depending on when you visit, so maybe check it over before you let the little ones loose.
