What makes it special or worth visiting?
Woodlands Park in Rockton is in a beautiful neighborhood with walking/bike paths throughout. There’s a small playground with two slides, a metal zipline with football-shaped slider, pull-up bars, and a climbing section. The playground is next to a Frisbee Golf course and sand volleyball courts.
If you go, you may want to bring:
- Sunscreen and hats – The playground is in full sun
- Bikes, scooters, ride-ons – This park has a bike path throughout that is far from traffic.
Please note: The climbing slide entrance was cracked with sharp plastic edges. Please use this equipment with caution.
Is there a basketball court here or nearby?
No, there is a sand volleyball court and it connects to frisbee golf, but no basketball court. It’s at the end of a neighborhood so there’s nothing nearby.
I saw next to the pond like a court in construction. What is that? Any plan to made few updates to the park and playground?
I have not seen any information on updating the park.
