Cholla Park in Scottsdale is off Frank Lloyd Wright and Via Linda. From playgrounds to fields to walking paths, there is alot of variety to entertain all the family members.
Playground
This sand playground is a fun spot to stop and get wiggles out in North Scottsdale. They have a toddler playground with cute details like planets, dinosaur bones, and the” spinning ball thingy” that my son could play for hours.
There are a duck and squirrel to ride. A great rock climbing wall, rope climbing wall, fun slide, and one toddler and one big kid swing. The most used piece of equipment any time we have been on is the spinner you can stand on!
There is not a sunshade over the playground, it can get hot. There is a shaded ramada next to the playground for cooling off.
On the playground you will find a Playworld Systems scan the tag.
Picnic
Cholla Park in Scottsdale has four drop in ramadas according to the website, but we found more: one next to the playground, one next to the pickleball courts, and 3 to the north side of the park. There were lots of picnic tables and benches throughout the park as well.
This park, ramada and pickleball courts are available on a first come, first serve basis. You do not need a reservation. If you are planning on having a catered event, inflatables or any specialty item they ask that you call the facility in advance to verify the company’s insurance information.
