Small play ground, but kids still like play for fun, 20-30 minutes can be there. This play ground very close to residential house.

A nice modern small playground beside the heathcote river that contains a double slide and swings. Also has great connectivity to the Little River Rail Trail Cycleway and the rest of the neighbourhood.
