Western Springs Park

Nice pavilion, small splash pad, lots of running space. Even some pretty great horseshoe pits!

I loved how the playground was designed, felt so nice. Playing in the splash pad was cool but it was cold right after. The hill next to the massive playground would be amazing for winter sliding, I'm sure people would enjoy doing that.

This place is good. But you would think that when families are coming from as far away as California for a 2 day cheer competition you would allow food from the outside to be brought in. Or maybe food trucks. But hey what do I know.

It’s really nice to have a splash pad right by a playground. If the wind is right you’ll get hit with mist, which is great on a hot day. The splash pad and playground are both decent, nothing to rave about but still enjoyable. There’s also a huge hill, which my kids (ages 4.5, 2.5, and 1.5) enjoyed to a surprising degree. The biggest con is probably that they have no swings. If they did I may have given it 5 stars. I am also not a fan of the tunnels connecting the playground levels - they are tough for small kids to climb and a tight fit for bigger kids. Another small issue is that later in the evening around 7 the trees block the sun, making the splash pad chilly.
