Route 46 & Savage Road, Denville, NJ.
Update 8/12/2009: Classified it as no-wood chip but there is some woodchips, but a good area without them. Thanks to Sondra H.!!!
Fantastic playground, fenced in, with obstacle course leading to a choice of 2 big slides (steeper) for the bigger kids. Parking lot next to playground. Central gazebo positioned so you can watch all the action. The only drawback with my kids is that the big slide structure blocks visibility to the swing area when the little one is on the little stationary train. But it is comforting to know it is fenced in, that I didn’t worry. Great tire swing, and other swings (other swings not pictured here). Restroom is outside playground area but close by. Climbing after the little ones in the 2-5 structure is a little challenging since it isn’t straight stairs, and there is a tiny little clubhouse in it that is perfect for kids not adults. I highly recommend Gardner, even though it is pretty packed, the kids have a great time here!

- has more slides (not shown)
The hill with the two longs slides through the trees was the hit of this playground. My kids had a great time here. They also liked the big multi-person seesaw and lots of other slides.
We also took the very cool pedestrian bridge across the street to Burger King and back.
I am thinking of fixing some problems at Gardner field for an eagle scout project, if anyone has any ideas for things they would like fixed, please email me at : joshgrib@yahoo.com
