Centennial Park

"Sadly due to all the homeless they do not have any seats for parents to sit on to watch their kids play almost anywhere. They still only have three disgusting porta potties for restrooms. I tried to call City and recreation cuz someone cut rope playground equipment took pieces of the playground parts are missing unscrewed also someone came in and thought I'd be funny to start cutting awkward places in the fencing with wire cutters so now there's jagged pieces of metal on the fence line. The playground is fun and a lot to do but unfortunately with these small minor things you also have to make it comfortable for parents to sit here and watch there kids play. I sadly see more parents sitting in their cars a good 50 ft away from the playground instead because they're tired of standing and watching the kids play. Sally when I did report it nobody answered the phone so I guess hopefully this will maybe catch some people's attention and have it corrected and fixed maybe they should start having videos recordings of the playground or park to keep an eye on the equipment it's a shame. It seems like someone needs to come and do a will supervise and look over of the equipment. In routinely checked at least once a month."

"Such a great park! The young girl I was nannying was in heaven! The structures themselves are extremely solid. Even the climbing rope looked to be wrapped around stainless steel. Whatever company built this place had safety, fun, and weatherproofing in mind. I was extremely impressed coming here. The ground is also very squishy so if your child did happen to fall they would be alright. It’s a pretty location as well, right on the Caloosahatchee river. We saw many people walking their dogs on nearby trails. Nice area for the rest of town mostly still renovating from the hurricane last year."

"Participated in the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s Out of the Darkness Walk today. What an amazing venue! This park is a must to visit! Gorgeous park and will return with my grandsons! Only complaint is the portable toilets have not been services in quite some time."

"What a great park experience. Something to do for all ages. I took my 13 year old son and 5 year old daughter and we had endless fun. The playground is awesome. So much to do and explore and it was built very sturdy and nice touches with color etc. your right next to the river and the surrounding areas were nice. The fountain was good also. It would be nice to have some benches placed for parents to sit at but I still made it work. Definitely recommend stopping by to play on the playground."

"What a fantastic park the new Centennial Park turned out to be. Our kids absolutely love this park and they are always asking to go back. There is something for every age and even adults can enjoy the park with their kids, at least I do lol Even for kids with sensitivity traits also enjoy this park very much. My oldest son has autism and he really likes the net swing. There is a very tall tower and slide but there is also an area for toddlers with shorter slides. The park looks well maintained and it gets pretty busy during the weekend. It used to be free to park but there is a fee now and you have to pay for it using the app so make sure to bring your phone if you decide to drive here."
