Island Grove Regional Park

This is a really nice playground. It was designed to be inclusive while incorporating as many different fun options as possible. There’s a zip line and an inclusive zip line. Like many parks this one has two sections that cater to different ages: one for 2-5 and one for 5-12. There isn’t a whole lot for kids younger than 2 but there are a few things for them as well. The playground is pretty massive so it’s difficult to keep track of multiple children at once, especially if they’re playing on the different sections. It’s also on the rubber surfacing so it gets really hot, though there are misters available under one of the very abundant shady areas. The bathrooms are also very near.

Island Grove Regional Park offers a delightful experience for visitors of all ages, thanks to its expansive and thoughtfully designed playground. The park features a safe and comfortable rubber tire flooring that ensures a soft landing, making it ideal for energetic children and their peace-of-mind parents alike. The playground itself is a hub of activity, boasting a diverse array of equipment that caters to various age groups and interests. From towering slides and challenging climbing structures to swings and interactive play stations, there’s something for everyone. Younger children will enjoy the safer, more accessible play areas, while older kids can test their agility and courage on more adventurous equipment. Beyond the playground, the park’s lush greenery and well-maintained grounds provide a serene environment for picnics, leisurely strolls, or simply relaxing in the shade. The combination of engaging activities and natural beauty makes Island Grove Regional Park a perfect destination for family outings, ensuring hours of fun and enjoyment.

Very nice park. Lots of things for kids of all ages to do.

We went to the Greeley Stampede and had so much fun! Rides were excellent and the food was amazing!

We went for the Danny Gokey/Jeremy Camp concert at the Greeley Stampede. The weather was perfect for it - not too hot, cloud cover most of the day. The concert was great. The sound for Danny Gokey was perfect. But for Jeremy Camp, the vocals were muffled, so the bass and mid drowned out his singing. As far as the stampede, it just isn't that good. Probably 95% of the event is food and rides. There are hardly any other vendors to find. The rides, although plentiful, are so crammed together that the lines for the rides overlap each other, making it difficult to get through the crowds. For those who want to simply go from one spot to another, it will take a while. There was a seal/sea lion show. I know many people enjoyed this, but I was disturbed. The enclosure was not appropriate for them. I didn't see any sort of attached tank behind the main stage where they could 'stretch' out, but it doesn't mean there was, so I will err on that side. That sort of show should really not be there! The parking and volunteers are very well organized and efficient. So overall, the event would be a lot of fun for kids 8-18. There was a beer garden and live music stage for the adults. But if you go thinking you will see vendors that are interesting and may get you curious about ways to make life more fun or exciting, you will be disappointed.
