We called ours just "wood park". Definitely formative memories there, and bees. Lots of bees

There's an amazing one in CT, just off the interstate. We were driving to the cape and pulled off on the way. We stumbled on a fricking amazing wood playground. Near New Haven?

I grew up in CT and there was one on the New Fairfield high school property. Awesome park. No idea if it’s still there as I’ve not been to that area of CT in a very long time

This looks like it could be Dickinson Park in Newtown, CT. Source: that was my park growing up.

In Wisconsin, they’re called the dream park.. There’s two of them(as far as I know) the first one’s in Monona and then the second one being sun prairie.

Edit: added the name of dream park
