Pricing Snapshot
The Carleen Bright Arboretum Splash Pad is part of the arboretum's children's area in Woodway, where families also get swings, a merry-go-round, lawn games, and access to the larger 16-acre grounds. This is a stronger outing spot than a bare-bones neighborhood splash pad because the surrounding gardens, trails, and picnic-friendly setting give families more ways to stretch the visit. It is seasonal and officially runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend, making it a good warm-weather choice for mixed-age siblings and parents who want more than just a quick spray stop.
