One of the newer additions to Pelham City Park, this free splash pad sits in the northern part of the complex beside the dog park, with restrooms and a large pavilion right next to it. Playgrounds and walking paths nearby make it easy to stretch a visit into a full afternoon.
What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps 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 Pelham average 91°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 21 weeks a year, from May to September. Seasons shift year to year and municipal pads often close early for maintenance, so check before a long drive.
