When it comes to outdoor fun and adventure, Woodstock boasts some of the best playgrounds and parks that will keep kids entertained for hours. From swings and slides to climbing walls and musical features, Woodstock's parks and playgrounds keep my kids active, provide great opportunities to meet old friends and make new ones, and best of all, they're FREE!
I often get asked about our favorite playgrounds, so I thought I'd share my family's top five playgrounds and parks in Woodstock with you.

The Downtown Playground
809 Market Street
Woodstock, GA 30188
What we love about Downtown Playground:
Tucked right behind downtown Woodstock (by the Elm Street Green), the Downtown Playground has become a favorite "pit stop" for our family. Whenever we are in the downtown Woodstock area for errands or just to stroll through the shops, we always make this playground a part of the deal for the kiddos. This nature-based play environment boasts climbing mounds, tunnels, musical features, and a jungle explorer dome that is sure to please the kids!

J.B. Owens Park
2699 Hickory Road
Holly Springs, GA 30115
What we love about J.B. Owens:
In My kids lovingly refer to J.B. Owens as "the broccoli playground" as its playground structures have a nature/tree theme and, to be honest, the trees look a little like broccoli. We frequent this park in Holly Springs because it's close to home, it's clean, and it's spacious yet quaint. The playground in encircled by a walking path so I could push the baby in the stroller while staying a shout away from my older kids. There is a larger walking path, a paved nature trail that leads to a small creek, multiple pavilions with picnic tables aplenty, and restrooms right next to the playground. There's also a nice grassy area, so bring a ball or frisbee!
Amenities at J.B. Owens:
- Restrooms
- Walking Path
- Natural creek
- Pavilions with picnic tables
- Playground
- Green space

Kidzstock Park
11905 Highway 92
Woodstock, GA 30188
What we love about Kidzstock:
The very best thing about this park is the way it appeals to all ages! The Tot Lot is spacious and has wooden structures that resemble a city (think train depot and fire station) with low monkey bars, slides and swings galore. The larger play area features a seemingly endless, multi-level castle and boat structure that allow for some phenomenal imaginative play. There are musical play features, a climbing wall, a basketball court, plenty of seating (though you may even be inspired to play), and slides -- all encompassed by a fence so there is only one way in and out, a safety feature that I personally LOVE.
Amenities at Kidzstock Park:
- Fenced
- GREAT Tot Area!
- Climbing Structures
- Benches
- Walking/Scooter Path
- Basketball Court
- Rock Climbing Wall
- Restrooms with Changing Tables
- Covered Pavilions
- Picnic Tables

Dupree Park
513 Neese Road
Woodstock, GA 30188
What we love about Dupree Park:
In There are a few reasons I love Dupree Park, the most significant being that there is a large pond for fishing (with a fishing dock) and my kiddos love to go and see the geese and ducks that live here. I also love that there are outdoor fitness stations- not that I use them ever, but it makes me smile that there is such a thing! This Woodstock park also features a multi-level playground that has a pirate ship-type theme with slides from the upper to the lower level. You have to see it to believe it! Oh, and if you have a toddler that likes to run off, you will so appreciate that the playground is enclosed with only one way in and out!
Amenities at Dupree Park:
- Pavilions
- Outdoor Fitness Stations
- Disc Golf Course
- Playground
- Fishing pond with dock
- Walking track
