COL BENNET PARK

Public BBQ

Tucked away in Algester, Col Bennett Park reveals itself as one of those delightfully unpretentious local gems that families have quietly claimed as their own. The park strikes that perfect balance between utility and charm - clean, well-maintained, and refreshingly uncrowded compared to Brisbane's busier recreational spots. The playground caters primarily to older children, though the wide open spaces more than compensate for any equipment limitations. What truly sets this place apart is the morning symphony of native birds and the resident duck population. The barbecue facilities are serviceable, albeit lacking overhead protection from the occasional tree debris. However, there's one glaring omission: the complete absence of toilet facilities, which transforms pleasant family outings into carefully timed expeditions. Despite this fundamental flaw, the park's quiet atmosphere and natural setting continue to draw locals seeking respite.
