About

Family-friendly venue featuring a splash pad with various water features along with swings and a playground.

The water at Metz Splash Pad is not heated and is supplied directly from the municipal water system, therefore its temperature fluctuates with ambient conditions and the municipal water supply.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This splash pad is highly rated by visitors for its diverse water features, ample shade, and overall cleanliness. It's described as a fun, free, and family-friendly spot with additional park amenities like playgrounds, restrooms, and plenty of seating, including covered picnic tables. Many appreciate the convenient parking and friendly atmosphere. A recurring issue, however, is its operational reliability; there's no user control to turn it on, and it has been found not running during advertised summer hours, leading to disappointment for some visitors.

Love this splash pad! There are various styles of water sprayers and my granddaughter had a blast! It’s shaded so you don’t have to worry about the sun on the kids. There are several benches surrounding the splash pad to relax on while watching the kids.

We love our local splash pad! It’s covered, which is great, and my 3 year old and baby love the water features. FYI: there is no button to turn it on unfortunately, so if the Metz office is closed and the splash pad isn’t running, you’re out of luck. We visited on a Sunday and sadly, it was not running. It’s supposed to run from 8am-9pm 7 days a week during the summer, so it might have been broken? I called 311 but they weren’t able to help.

My friend and I brought our two toddlers here (2 and 3) around 10 am Sunday morning. There was just two other families here. All the kids had fun, everyone was so kind. There's covered picnic tables to bring your lunch and the parking is right by the splash pad area so you can run to your car if you need to. Cool water, very clean park. I'm rating splashpads all around town and so far this one has been my favorite. Plenty of shade and free!
