Conway's first splash pad, open since 2018, packs in a water tunnel, tumble buckets, water cannons and a giant super splash. A designated toddler bay with gentle streams plus benches and covered picnic areas make it work for mixed-age families.
What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps toilets on site, drinking water, playground alongside, parking at this location.
When to go. Peak summer highs in Conway average 92°F. Mornings and late afternoons are far more comfortable than the middle of the day, and shade is worth planning around.
How long it's open. Roughly 2 weeks a year, from May to May. Seasons shift year to year and municipal pads often close early for maintenance, so check before a long drive.
