Shunpike Avenue, Chatham, NJ (can use Rolling Hill Court as intersecting street to find on maps.google.com). Great busy playground, especially for older kids. There are a lot of rocks in the perimeter so be careful with your little ones, and a small gully. Shady Picnic tables closeby make it convenient to bring an afternoon snack or lunch.. I met some friendly moms here. Portapotties close by but didn’t check them out.
As a local NJ fan, I’m thrilled to find helpful links for people to get to know towns better. Realtors are amazing resources who really know their towns and share great information. I was happy to meet Sue Adler at a Wine Library/ Garyvee tweetup recently. She has one of the best town pages I’ve seen from realtors. Check out her Chatham Town Page when you get a chance. If you are considering moving, I highly recommend you to check out realtor websites, they have some helpful insights on towns.

Shunpike used to be a wonderful wooden castle park. When I heard they tore it down and replaced it in 2007 I was so disappointed. But this new playground is truly wonderful, too. Plus you won’t lose track of your kids as you woudl at the old playground. Not as good for playing hide and seek, but, still… My kids (12, 10, 5 and 2) loved it. The only issue is that the 2 year old REALLY wanted to climb the “boulders” and I had to spend a lot of time holding her hand, etc.
We went today based on the recommendation on this page – my 3 boys (2,3,4 yrs) loved it and said we should definitely go back. The big hit with them was the “roller” slide.
Park is now closed on weekdays due to construction at the field
