There is a nice historic park in Kaysville that has plenty of space and lots of fun toys for the kids. Heritage Park in Kaysville also has an historic cabin on site, and if you plan carefully, you can be there on certain days when the cabin is open to visitors. You can see the outside of the cabin, and peek through the windows on any other day. It also has a new playground and a splash pad.
Playground and Splash Pad
If you’ve been to Heritage Park before, you’ll be excited to know that the playground has been updated. The new equipment is really nice and in really good condition. Our boys enjoyed the climbing structures. They also played their favorite game of moving from one end of the park to the other without touching the ground. Even though you may think you know this park, with the update, you’ll hardly recognize it.
There is also a splash pad at Heritage Park. When we visited in October, it was shut down for the season. We were excited to return, though, because the splashpad looked rather large, and there was a large water tunnel to run through. It would really be a great place to cool off in the summer!
There is also a large grass area at Heritage Park. Frisbee, soccer, or baseball games will have plenty of room to spread out, and the area is all flat. If your little ones enjoy open space, this is the place to visit.
Historic Cabin
On one corner of the park, the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers have reconstructed an original pioneer cabin. This cabin was built by George Pilling Adams around 1880, in Kaysville, Utah. The 288 sqft cabin was the home of George and his wife, who raised 10 children in this area. You can make an appointment to visit, or visit on certain festival days if you’d like to enter the cabin. This park is located at 250 North Fairfield Rd in Kaysville.
