Read more about this location
Steele Creek Park Splash Pad is Bristol's seasonal splash area inside one of the largest destination parks in the Tri-Cities region. Families get a zero-depth water-play stop within a much bigger outing that can also include playgrounds, shelters, trails, paddle boats, the nature center, train rides, and lake scenery. It is especially appealing for families who want to build a full park day rather than just stopping for water play alone.
