This park has something for all ages. Even your fury kids will love it!
There’s a full size basketball/netball court, and off-leash dog park and an awesome little fairy garden with mushroom houses for the littlest ones.
The play equipment is suitable for older kids with a huge climbing pyramid leading up to a massive slide.
There’s also a much smaller slide, swings, teepee, and some climbing stones.
There’s some tables and chairs and lots of open space with big trees, perfect for ball games and tree climbing.
Good news! There IS a toilet too! However, not much shade so be sure to slip slop slap!
Mamma's special mention:
Why not head down the road to the awesome Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre for some splashing fun!

You’ve gotta love a fully fenced in park!
How good is a fully enclosed park! There’s no way the little ones can escape from here! Which is a good thing seeing as the reserve runs off a main road.
Not only is it fully enclosed, but there’s also an outdoor gym to keep the adults busy, too!
The playground itself has some gorgeous little gumnut babies poking through the equipment. A little cubby house shopfront, swings, slides, climbing wall, open grass area for ball sports, a sandpit with a digger and more.
There’s a few tables with some shade and a BBQ. Around the corner is an off-leash dog park, so bring your fur babies along for some fun!
Mamma's special mention:
Feel like something sweet? A short drive away is a gorgeous cafe with delicious cakes, Ginger Fox.

Mamma has fond memories of growing up in this fab little playground. It was the perfect place for kids parties way back then, and is even more so now!
There’s multiple BBQ’s and picnic tables to enjoy some lunch, or grab your picnic rug and take advantage of the abundance of space to sprawl under the shade of the leafy trees.
Perhaps a little bush walk is more your cup of tea? Well there are multiple walking tracks on offer here, too!
Of course, the play equipment is also a winner. There’s a BIG slide and a few smaller ones, spinning cup, flying fox, climbing structures, rock walls, swings and there’s also a cricket batting cage.
Mamma's special mention:
Head up the road to the amazingly kid friendly Il Giardino Cafe for some delicious food and drinks.
