Playground

The wooden castle structure here is genuinely one of the more charming setups you’ll find for little ones — it’s got real character, not just the usual plastic equipment you see everywhere. Toddlers and preschoolers do really well here, with the sandbox, swings, and climbing all sized for younger kids. The shade trees and covered seating mean you’re not melting on a July afternoon, which parents around here will tell you makes all the difference. Throw in the waterfront views and it’s honestly a pretty ideal way to spend a morning with small kids in Thousand Island Park.
