A modest jet-style pad that Maryland Heights keeps running later into the night than nearly any other splash spot in the metro. It is the free neighborhood counterpart to the city's paid Aquaport water park across town.
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 Maryland Heights average 89°F — warm enough for a splash pad through most of the season without being punishing at midday.
