Jacolyn Park - Park in Cedar Rapids - 198 Jacolyn Dr NW, USA

Small little park off of main street for you to play with your children or the kids you nanny.

The splash pad was fun for my three year old. Big shade trees to sit under, playground was also entertaining for him. It's a nice park. Cons were not about the park as much as the people. Lots of people smoking very near the splash pad (I was there with a new baby too - I'm not okay with smoke), people leaving litter, people boozing at one of the nearby picnic tables. Especially so close to the kids' areas I found this frustrating.

Though the park is nice, I'm not sure about the crowd that frequents it. I've only been here about 5-6 times, and the last time my car got keyed. I won't be coming back to this park. For an older park with older playground equipment, it offers a surprising amount of ways to have fun for kids. With two swing sets (baby and older child), sand box, splash pad, playground, and pavilion (which is host to a weekly story time led by CR public library), we easily spend the whole morning here. The playground itself has nothing on Noelridge's highly accessible variety star playground, but it has lots of mature trees which provide plenty of shade. There is also a restroom on site.

A great little park if you have kids, or just want to spend some time in an open area with trees scattered around for shade. Has a fun splash pad for children that is regulated by the people using it. They can turn it on whenever they want. It also has a playground. If you play Pokémon Go, it sports a gym.

It's a nice park and well maintained!!! There's plenty for kids to do and the splash pad was great!! There's plenty of shade and enough space for people to sit and conversate....but the overall experience really sucked beings that you couldn't sit anywhere without the bugs attacking u to the point that you didn't wanna be there.........

Nice place to take the kids out to play.

It is always super packed and the kids are never supervised. The equipment is Decent though.

Nice little park with ball diamond, splash pad, and small playground. Shelter is first come, first serve. Rated lower because the playground isn't the best and most of the time there are kids there unsupervised... some are pretty naughty.
