Goodyear Recreation Campus - Park

Pretty decent park. Definitely has a lot of opportunities for lil and big kids to play. Has two big bathrooms, one by the tennis court and the other one is towards the baseball field. Each bathroom is clean everytime I visit. Plenty of sitting areas, and ramadas to hang out in. You don't need to reserve, unless someone has reserved it prior. I like how open it is for everyone to use for riding around on scooters as well. If you go early enough in the day it's pretty quite. My kids enjoy the zip line the most, this will definitely get that energy out of them. Check it out if you looking for something new

A nice park with a good variety of things to do for the Littles. The jungle gym has a section focused for toddlers and bigger kids. Several swings and slides are available on a rubber and turf play area.

The center has several grills, benches and tables available.

Baseball fields, basketball, volleyball and racquetball courts line the outside as well as a big green space.

The only noticeable downside is a lot of people seem to leave their trash and some of the older kids can get significantly out of hand/disregard their surroundings and others around them.

I did not notice a bathroom but I also did not seek it out

This park is cool and huge lots to do the party Ramada has power a sink and a grill we liked it.

"Goodyear, good fun."
Make sure you wear your walking shoes, the landscape calls for ups and downs... and ups... and downs. It's great how diverse the play equipment is for all sizes and levels of energy. The zip line is usually the star of the show, and following closely behind is the concrete slide- a slide that looks normal but turns out to almost launch your kid off in a fit of glee. Though I rated 5 stars, my one complaint is that the hills make it difficult to perch up and watch your kids- you will find yourself following them around just to keep them in sight.

Well Kept? Yes
Shaded? Yes
Swings? Yes- both toddler and big kids

This is such a cool park! We love it. One negative is shade issues... There is no shade covering for most of the play equipment. This is Arizona!! Such an amazing park, I have no idea why they didn't include shade for the kids. There are 2 zip lines, one is for handicap children. There are 2 levels of playground equipment. Lower level has equipment for older children, and the top is for younger children. There is a big drinking water fountain in the middle that has spouts for older kids, smaller kids, and one at the bottom for dogs. It was turned off while we visited, maybe due to covid-19 right now. The floor is rubber which is awesome, except the swing area has wood chips. There is a cool wheel design for the picnic tables. There are charcoal barbecues in the center, tables with sinks!, and several covered picnic benches. It seems nice, except the metal roofing is angled which is great for only a couple tables at a time. Wish the roofing was over the entire area, it's Arizona!?! There are baseball fields, tennis courts, basketball courts...Parking is confusing if you think it's part of the rec center. You can park at the rec center, or drive one more street down then there is closer parking. There is no sash pad. There are no benches for adults to sit at near the older kid's play equipment. That's a huge negative for me! If you want to sit at the covered picnic tables, you won't be able to see your children because they would be at a lower level. Parents usually hide under one of the bridges that has even a tiny but of shade. It was a smart idea not to include trees around the park, so they didn't have to deal with tree leaf litter maintinance, but then at least provide alternate shade! The hills sourounding the park are fake grass. We did not see a dog park. I can also understand that not having a dog park cuts down on liability issues and insures that their park is clean and well maintained, but it could be a big negative to pet owner families. Overall a great park, we will come back when it's cooler because there is no shade for the kids.
