About Edgewood Park Splash Pad

Honestly, 3.5 stars out of 5 isn't amazing for a splash pad, but New Haven's got some good stuff going on here. It's an outdoor spot, which means it's seasonal, but for those hot Connecticut days, it's a solid option. They've got the basics covered: restrooms, parking, and a picnic area if you want to make an afternoon of it. I like that they thought of shade structures, because sun exposure can be a real issue at some of these places. With 200 Google reviews, it's pretty well known in a city of 134,023. There's concessions too, so you don't have to pack a full lunch if you don't want to. And it's wheelchair accessible, which is always a plus. It's not a proper swimming pool, just to be clear, but splash pads are great for cooling off.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to get into the splash pad?

Admission fees aren't something I have specific data on for this splash pad. Many splash pads operated by city parks departments are free to the public, but it's always best to confirm. I'd suggest contacting the New Haven Parks and Recreation department or checking their official website for any potential costs.

Is the Edgewood Park Splash Pad good for young kids and families?

Yes, it's pretty good for families, especially those with younger children. Splash pads are generally designed with kids in mind, and the addition of picnic areas and shade structures makes it easier to spend more time there. It's wheelchair accessible too, which helps more families enjoy it.

Is parking available at the splash pad?

Yes, parking is listed as one of the amenities, so you should be able to find a spot for your car. This is a big plus, especially when you're going with kids and have extra gear to bring. It makes getting in and out much easier.

Are there other places to swim in New Haven if this splash pad isn't open?

New Haven has a few other options. Depending on the time of year, there might be indoor pools available through the city or local YMCAs. For outdoor swimming, you'd likely be looking at city-run pools or nearby beaches, though those aren't splash pads. Check the city's parks department for a full list of aquatic facilities.
