First thing you notice when you pull up to this reserve is the brightly coloured modern play equipment along with the huge grassed area. Whilst the play equipment isn’t huge it has been well thought out to cater for a few different ages. The toddlers and smaller children can enjoy the swings which include a baby swing, slippery dip, bouncy ladybird and small climbing wall. The bigger kids can use the giant climbing spider web that sits a little away from the the play equipment or even enjoy a game of noughts and crosses which can be found on the play equipment.
Once everyone has had enough of the equipment there is plenty of grassed area to run around on, kick balls or just enjoy a family picnic . There is also a tennis court as part of the Golflands reserve.
Whilst the area near the play equipment has a fence the entire reserve isn’t totally fenced off. Unfortunately there is no shade over the play equipment but several trees you could utilise to sit under for shade if you stopped for a picnic or BBQ .
In need of a coffee .. closest would be Mc Café on Anzac Highway ( nothing within a close walking distance Im afraid)

Find it at: Darwin St Genelg North This local reserve located just off Anzac Highway has a fabulous "Outback" theme playground equipment that gives the kids a great place to use there imaginations when playing. This playground has lots of pieces of equipment for kids to climb up and over and through. It includes a small slippery dip, bridge for climbing over ,swing set including baby swing and I love how they have used an old water tank to create the outback theme that the kids can play in. There are couple of little themed bouncy pieces of equipment for the toddlers along with a huge grassed area to run some energy off. It also has wheelchair access. This reserve has BBQ facilities with undercover tables. However NO toilets, NO fence or No shade for the playground area. A nice little spot for a quick play if in the area. Closest coffee is either Jetty Road Glenelg with lots of café options or Coffee Time on Tapley's Hill Road.

Find it at Kinkaid Ave North Plympton As soon as you see this playground nestled amongst a huge grassed area you are drawn to the array of bright colours of the play equipment. Nestled in the suburb of North Plympton this playground is fully fenced and features lots of climbing and balancing pieces for the kids. Monkeys bars, climbing poles, stepping stones to a spider web that stands alone. Suitable for 2 - 6 year olds, this playground also has a swing set ( including baby swing) slippery dip, and a bouncy animal piece of equipment the little ones all love. Whilst there is no shade cloth over the equipment this park is surrounded by lots of lovely trees that will continue to grow and provide shade for the play area . A nice neighbourhood playground unfortunately No toilets at this park but if in need of a coffee Solar Eggs Café is just a short stroll away on Kinkaid Ave.
