"The good: This park has great play structures for the kids. There are huge trees that offer shade. Lots of space. The bad: the bathrooms are disgusting. On occasion some unsavory folks pass through using colorful language. The play structures are a little close to the road, which is busy. Even though there are tall trees for shade, shade sails over the playgrounds would be good."
