About
Small park with a splash pad and playground, popular with kids of all ages.
As a splash pad, the Southside Splash Pad does not feature heated or temperature-controlled pools. The water used for its interactive features is typically fresh municipal water, which is at ambient outdoor temperatures and not specifically maintained at a fixed temperature.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The facility is generally highly praised as a fun, clean, and positive experience for kids and adults, especially the splash pad, which is considered a great addition. It offers various options for children of different ages and has an adjacent playground with shaded seating. However, some areas for improvement include: the splash pad can be intimidating for toddlers under two due to bigger kids and no sectioned-off area; the playground is primarily for older kids, leaving younger children with little to do there. There are also reports of some non-functional or removed equipment. Patrons suggest adding more shaded seating and extending operating hours, particularly on warm evenings when the water is shut off early.

It's a great place to take your kids to on a hot day. It's a good size and has several options for kids of various ages. There are a few umbrellas providing some shade but there are no benches under the umbrellas so some families brought their own chairs to sit in under the shade. I find that the place is a bit intimidating for toddlers under 2 as there are a lot of big kids using the splash pad and the small kid part is not sectioned off so all the kids mingle together

Awesome place for kid and adults alike to enjoy the day and have fun, best thing Greenville has added in a long time.

Brought my kids here. Essentially pretty nice. The kids were having fun and it was a decent hidden area for the kids. There's a playground which is nice also, right beside it... has shaded spots to sit and be able to see your child(ren). Some items here don't work correctly or have been removed. Still nice.

My kids love the spashpad!!! Only thing I do not care for is the playground area is only for big kids, small kids go to the splash pad but the play area is not equipped for small kids, my youngest has zero fun at the play area.

Kids love it here. So far just positive experiences, drama free. Very clean. My only suggestion would be to stay open longer. They shut the water off today at 8 and it is still 92ﾟ outside and daylight. People were still showing up. That was disappointing.
