Cottonwood Street

Honestly, Cottonwood Street itself isn’t going to wow you with a ton of playground gear, but its location is the real selling point. You’re right next to McCormick Park and the Currents Aquatics Center, so it fits naturally into a bigger family outing in that part of Missoula. Think of it as a connective spot — somewhere to let the kids stretch their legs between stops rather than a destination on its own. If you’re already in the neighborhood, it makes sense to swing by.
