ELIZABETH ROSS PARK

Public BBQ

Elizabeth Ross Park sits quietly in East Gosford, a compact family destination that punches above its weight despite some glaring oversights. The park centers around a well-designed playground where the standout flying fox draws kids like moths to a flame, while a dedicated scooter track keeps the wheeled brigade entertained. Covered picnic tables and BBQ facilities make it genuinely family-friendly, though you'll want to pack everything including the kitchen sink - there's no water tap or drinking fountain. The location proves its worth with easy parking either in the small dedicated area or along Webb Street, plus wheelchair-accessible concrete paths throughout. What sets this place apart is its proximity to the Japanese Gardens, creating an unexpectedly sophisticated pairing for a suburban park adventure. The elephant in the room remains the complete absence of public toilets - a baffling oversight that forces desperate parents into undignified sprints to the nearby Japanese Gardens. Otherwise, it's a solid choice for family outings.
