Sunny Fields Park is a park where kids can truly be kids. There's a wooden-castle playground, a gingerbread house where the kids can play inside and and even a theater for puppet shows. The medieval towers, rock-climbing walls, bridges and Viking ships will keep young children busy all day long. Guests can bring bathing suits during the warmer months (a sprinkler shoots water out from an archway near the entrance of the park) and enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the picnic tables that surround the park.
