OAKVIEW PARADE RESERVE

Public BBQ

This local park strikes a perfect balance between recreation and relaxation, anchored by a playground that clearly favors older children over toddlers. The centerpiece is a well-maintained basketball court where the occasional game unfolds, while families gravitate toward the covered barbecue area that provides reliable shelter for outdoor gatherings. The park's beauty lies in its practical design - everything needed for a successful family outing or casual party is thoughtfully arranged within easy reach. While the playground equipment might leave parents of very young children searching elsewhere, those with school-age kids will find this spot delivers exactly what's needed for an afternoon escape. The covered barbecue facilities make it particularly appealing during unpredictable weather, ensuring outdoor plans rarely get derailed.
