ARNOLDS CREEK RESERVE

Public BBQ

Arnolds Creek Reserve in Harkness proves that sometimes the best family spots are the ones you stumble upon by accident. The modern playground equipment here genuinely impresses - the flying fox alone will keep children occupied for ages, while swings and climbing structures cater to various ages. The BBQ facilities are consistently well-maintained and perfect for catching up with friends over a proper barbie. There's ample space for kids to burn energy and decent shaded seating for parents to actually relax. The location near shops makes grabbing supplies convenient. However, the complete absence of public toilets remains baffling - surely someone at Melton Council could rectify this glaring oversight. Despite this inconvenience, it's become a reliable weekend destination that delivers exactly what families need.
