About
Cole Spray Park, located at 1240 Morse St NE, Washington, DC 20002, is a vibrant community park primarily known for its interactive spray ground (splash pad). It serves as a popular destination for children and families to cool off and play during warm weather. In addition to the water features, the park offers a playground, picnic tables, and open green space, making it a well-rounded recreational area for local residents.
Cole Spray Park features a spray ground (splash pad) with various water features, not traditional swimming pools. Therefore, specific pool temperatures are not applicable or available, as the water typically comes from the municipal supply and is not temperature-controlled.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The reviews generally praise the location as a great, clean, and spacious complex offering numerous options suitable for children of all ages, including a fun splash park, multiple playgrounds, and an adjacent field. The water park is noted for being larger than most. While largely positive, some criticisms emerged, such as the significant use of concrete in the water park area (with a suggestion for safer textured granite) and issues with litter. A notable, humorous anecdote involved a toddler finding a 'top quality wet leaf' more entertaining than the engineered splash features.

Why is there no one here on this hot day? This place is great. Clean. Spacious. Lots of options. Y'all should come by!

This is a review of the playground complex. The water Park area is larger than most and definitely allows for some great activities with kids but unfortunately the significant usage of concrete isnt the best... I feel like other locations use textured granite to reduce scrapes. Otherwise the campus is great for relaxing with multiple options for kids of all ages

Top Quality Leaves It was a very hot summer day. We had our nephew, who was under two years old, visiting us. The pool at our building was too crowded, so we looked for an outdoor park with a splash zone. Minutes after arriving, the kiddo was completely ignoring the elaborating constructed water obstacles and splash features. But fear not for there was GOOD NEWS. In the middle of the splash zone, there was a wet leaf. And you may think, “So what?” but trust me, dear reader, when I tell you that this was a top shelf leaf. This leaf had it all: green, ridges, stem, leafiness, did I mention green? The time spent playing with the leaf far exceeded the time playing in just the carefully-engineered-and-designed-for-kids water play structures. So if your kid loves to play with wet leaves (or outdoor splash parks). I would highly recommend this.

We love taking the two year old to the two playgrounds. The adjacent field is perfect for running and kicking a ball. There is too much litter strewn about.
