★★★★★ 2 months agoBeautiful park. Kids love the extreme climb to the top of the playground. The views are pretty sick from the top too. Splash pad for your kids to cool off from the heat. Catch the local icecream man when he comes thru with his cart also. I would be pleased if this park was in my neighborhood. I took my kids here twice on our vacation to Denver. Highly recommend

★★★★★ 2 months agoVisited Paco Sánchez Park with my two kids and we had a really nice afternoon there. The park was clean, there was plenty of open space for them to run around, and the playground kept them entertained for quite a while. It felt safe and well maintained, and there were enough benches for parents to sit and relax. Overall, it's a great spot for families looking to spend some time outdoors.

★★★★★ 4 months agoThis is an amazing park! I love the playground equipment they have to offer the kiddos. Please bring this to Michigan! Our kids didn't really want to leave and our big boy made friends. Highly recommend!!!
