What parents say

This is a beautiful place to sit and unwind, enjoy the scenery or even spend time with your family. You're able to walk across the bridges, rent a paddle boat to ride or bike ride along the trails.i definitely recommend paying it a visit. Fair warning the slides are metal and extremely hot in warm weather.

★★★★★ — Patrice, Jul 2022

Awesome and dynamic playground. Actually challenging for kids 5 and under. Well maintained, clean, and beautiful.

★★★★★ — Vija, Mar 2024

Great park lots of fun in a small space. Also you can walk along the canal and take little paved paths to walk on. They have 2 saucer swings a giant slide you have to climb up netting to get to. A slide at the start. There a chairs to sit in around the water and benches. We enjoyed it with our almost 4 year old.

★★★★★ — Kristen, Sep 2021

This is similar to a park playground for kids, with slide, swings, and monkey bars; except everything has been made bigger, better, and blue. On the Indianapolis Cultural Trail, and immediately beside the USS Indianapolis Memorial.
