Brown Park
Park
👍👍 This playground is great for ages two through 12. There is one section for the younger kids and another section for the older kids. The ground is covered in a rubberized coat so it’s good for falls. There is parking nearby in the train station parking lot and tennis courts next to the playground.

👍 Nice and quiet little park where one can go for a walk with pets. Sometimes when it rains there's tons of water on the north side of the park so watch out for puddles.
