Cloverdale Park Description
The play structure at Cloverdale Park features floating islands to navigate to the play structure. My daughter always loved transferring across these.

The structure includes a straight slide and a twisty slide. Plus, a rocky hike to climb on.

Underneath the play structure is a musical element complete with songs for the kids to play. Based on the icons, it looks like kids can follow the notes to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, London Bridge, Row Row Row Your Boat. and a bedtime song.
