Reviews of Cool Creek Park Nature Center
"Had lots of fun at the Halloween event last night! Teenagers directing traffic did a great job and were very pleasant and helpful. Groups that had booths were in the spirit of the holiday and the young man helping with the hayride was very kind to my granddaughter. All in all, a great experience!"
"The nature area is very nice. It has turtles, snakes and lots of information about all kinds of animals and the trails all around the creek make it so you can really explore the whole area. The playground has a lot of options to play/climb on for kids of all ages and some exercise equipment that adults can use while still able to supervise their kids playing. Highly recommend!"
"We love Cool Creek. I am so glad there's something like this close by. The nature center is great. There are a few animals, a ton of educational material, a bird viewing area. There's a room with puzzles,books, puppets and some dress up. My girls are mostly interested in running around (literally) and the people working there have always been nice to them. Sometimes there are little activities too. There are great trails, a neat nature play area, and a playground. Really a great resource!"
"Good play ground with equipment in one area for 1 to 3- year olds and more kids a little older in another. Covered pavilion with some picnic tables is nice. Quite a few swings and slides for kids to enjoy. One bad thing is that the bathroom isn't very close but is just a few minute walk away so not terrible. Aug. 23, 2019 update: Giving 5 stars now... They completed the renovations and added awesome new equipment. More stuff than before with some canopies to create shade. Still a good area for the smaller kids and separate area for older ones. New pics posted to show updates."
"Pretty cool place. Lots of things to do and see. Including a nice playground as well as a really nice Nature Center with the bird sanctuary and other things to see. Lots of turtles and of course the best thing is hidden inside the greenhouse which we will have to see if you want to know what it is. Trails are well kept and plenty of space for everybody."
