Forest Ridge Park

The play train is honestly what makes this one stand out — kids lose their minds over it, and it gives younger ones something to do while older siblings hit the climbing structure or the slides. It’s a solid neighborhood park, nothing flashy, but everything actually works and it stays pretty clean. After the kids are done, there’s a basketball court and a soccer field if anyone needs to burn off more energy, plus picnic tables and a charcoal grill if you want to make an afternoon of it. Good for ages one through twelve, which means you’re not dragging the toddler somewhere else while the older one plays — everyone’s covered in one spot.
