Malmore Park

Tucked into a quiet corner of Council Bluffs, this little neighborhood park punches above its weight for the families living nearby. The playground keeps kids in the 2-12 range entertained, and the open grass field gives them room to actually run around — something you don’t always get at smaller parks. Parking is on-site, which sounds basic but makes a real difference when you’re hauling little ones. It’s the kind of spot locals use regularly without making a big deal about it, a genuine community gathering place rather than a destination.
