What to expect
The things that decide a trip with small children — a toilet, some shade, somewhere to sit — are exactly what listings usually leave out. Across the 2 pads in Dunwoody:
Fully enclosed by a tall fence, Two Bridges Park's splash pad runs on a push-button system that activates 30 minutes of water at a time. Newly added shade structures, an ADA-compliant playground, walking paths, and public restrooms complete the package.
A stone-lined shallow brook winds through Brook Run Park's large playground, giving little kids a natural-style wading experience rather than a traditional jet splash pad. It is free and folds water play into one of Dunwoody's best playgrounds.
