Did you know that Great Wolf Lodge is not the only place worth visiting in Perryville?
This playground and park was such a lovely surprise! The playground itself has tons of unique play features, to include the aeroglider, a zipline, tons of swings, climbing play features and more!
But the thing that makes this park stand out is it’s basically surrounded by water! Yep, Perryville Community Park stands out like a thumb (or small peninsula).
