Rope Playground at Roanoke Park

This park already has a lot of good reviews, but I wanted to put in my two cents. This park is better suited for older kids overall (7+ years old). There is a sand pit. The swings are quite high, better for a person who is 5'4" or taller. There are no bathrooms nearby. There are plenty of trash cans around, and overall it's clean. It's surrounded by trees. However, there is a road next to it with cars coming every 10-20 seconds or so.

No restrooms nearby and the rope slide can be a bit daunting for younger aged kids. This park is great for maybe 8/9+ as there are many older kids things to do which younger children will struggle to play with. Not to say this isn’t a good park for all ages, it has baby swings even I believe. However, my 7yr old was even struggling with the height of the rope slide and how it is accessed via climbing. If you have younger ones, be ready to play with them on a few of the toys because of the complications they’ll bring. Overall, amazing park in a nice safe & quiet area. We will certainly be back again.

Younger kids can enjoy the swings and musical instruments and a little slide, while older kids will also enjoy climbing the huge rope tower, large slides, and zip line. 👩🏼 Braved the rope tower to help 👧🏼 down the slide, it's only slightly terrifying, but very fun. Surface: woodchips and turf Shade: sunny Bathroom: no (lots of trees in case of post cocoa emergencies 🙃) Wheelchair accessible entrances A five ⭐ park if it had a bathroom.

One of the most delightful parks in the Volker neighborhood of KC. It has an almost two-story rope pyramid, slides, swings for toddlers and teens! There's a nearby walking trail, rocks to climb on and it's near one of the more popular volleyball courts. It's always very clean and my kids love to come here. Even I love it!

I give it a 4 only because of the lack of a public restroom It was our family's first time we have a 2 year old and almost 4 year old girls and they had a great time sliding and swinging and climbing hiking into the woods playing the music instruments. Even hubby enjoyed himself 😄
