About
The Eastmark Great Park Splash Pad, located in Mesa, AZ, is a vibrant community water play area designed for families. It features a variety of interactive water elements such as sprayers, fountains, and dumping buckets, providing a fun and refreshing experience for children and adults, often serving as a central gathering point in the Eastmark community.
As a splash pad, the facility typically does not feature traditional heated pools. The water temperature is generally ambient, aligning with the outdoor air temperature, and is not usually monitored or advertised as a specific temperature.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? This splash pad is generally well-loved, especially for younger children (from 6 months up), offering ample shade from sails and palm trees, and a fully enclosed/gated area for safety. It's free, features a small puddle area for infants, and overlooks a duck pond where kids can watch wildlife. Amenities include a clean public bathroom with a changing table, plenty of tables, chairs, and benches, and its location is convenient with a restaurant and coffee shop nearby. Key drawbacks include inaccurate Google hours (it closes much later than listed), a very slippery surface that requires caution (water shoes recommended for runners), only one public bathroom which can lead to waiting, difficulty finding close parking, and issues with some fountains not working, creating puddles. Also, kids tend to drop toys into the adjacent pond.

HOURS ON GOOGLE ARE INCORRECT! It doesn’t close until 9pm or 10pm I believe (pretty late, not 4pm as listed). Good shaded spots. Great for 6months-up. There’s just a little puddle that gets water pumped into it so infants that are sitting or crawling can have fun. The fence on the far side overlooks a duck pond that connects to the main park. So the kids can go over to the fence and watch fish, turtles and ducks then keep playing at the splash pad. Only downside is kids tend to drop their splash pad toys into the pond since it’s right on the edge. 1 public bathroom with a changing table that’s pretty clean right next to the entrance to the splash pad. Inside the splash pad there 3 tables, good amount of chairs, and 3 benches. I see kids who are running slip and bang their head a lot, so if your kid is a runner- I suggest water shoes because it’s SLIPPERY. Only negatives is you can end up waiting for the bathroom, and it can be hard to find close parking, but you can still find parking. It’s free! Clean. Totally enclosed. Great for play-date hangouts. It has a restaurant not even a 45sec walk away so you can get lunch or drinks without interrupting your day. All the parents I’ve seen have been attentive to their children and kind all around. Some wear bathing suits with their kids other just regular clothes, so it’s up to you.

We loved this place. Only three small round tables and only one public stall/bathroom. We were visiting from out of state and didn't need a key card for the splash pad. We were glad it was.shaded with sails and palm trees. My kiddos loved it.

Great splash pad for younger kids. Lots of shade and gated in. I love that you can grab a coffee and walk over.

This is a really cute splash pad. Plenty of shade and lots of seating for the adults. The fountains were not working though. Only 2 were on and there were some puddles from the non-working ones. Should really be a priority to get these fixed since it’s summer!
