Situated in the middle of a quiet neighborhood, this park is a great visit for kids to run out their energy. The park backs up to Bailey Cove Road, but is fenced towards the road and is a decent distance from the parking lot, so the runners should be fairly safe here. There’s also a large field they’ll love as well as a paved path through a small wooded area that’s the perfect backdrop for those imaginations.

For the kids that love to race or challenge each other, this park is the perfect destination with tons of side-by-side slides and space to run. Although the play set is only made up of one structure, there is a shorter side that includes a small slide for the little kids.
Know Before You Go
Willow Park can be a great place to explore if you’re looking for somewhere new to visit. Here’s some tips to help make the visit even better:
- There’s not much shade other than the wooded area, so be sure to come prepared with sunscreen, and to bring plenty of hydration on those hot days.
- Although the bathrooms are close to the playgrounds, there is not a changing table in them. We opted to use the backseat of our car, but there’s also a few benches where a blanket could be laid down in a pinch.
- The playground is only partially fenced, so keep an eye on the runners. This is a fairly low-traffic park though.
- The playground is encircled with sidewalk and there’s sidewalk going into the wooded area, so be sure to bring the push toys.
