✓ Last confirmed for the 2025 season

E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park added a new splash pad at its swimming pool complex in northeast Louisville. Pool admission is required to use it.

What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps playground alongside, parking at this location. No public toilets are mapped here — worth knowing before you commit to an afternoon.

When to go. Peak summer highs in Louisville average 89°F — warm enough for a splash pad through most of the season without being punishing at midday.
