New city splash pad at Waddell Park with a new playground, restrooms, picnic areas, sports fields, and a community gazebo.

Editorial notes

What stands out

A practical local favorite for summer because the splash pad is brand-new and surrounded by enough amenities to support repeat family visits.

Good fit

  • Families wanting a modern splash pad plus playground in the same stop
  • Quick free summer outings
  • Siblings with different interests thanks to the larger park setting

Consider another option if

  • Families seeking a heavily themed spray park with big feature elements
