Playgrounds in Johns Creek
The Johns Creek playground answer starts at Newtown Park, the city's main park at 3150 Old Alabama Road, and spreads to Ocee Park's two playscapes and the smaller sets at Cauley Creek and Shakerag. All are real, city-run playgrounds with verified locations.
Playground equipment ages and gets replaced, so call the parks department if a specific piece is the point of the trip.
The main answer
Newtown Park
Newtown Park playground
3150 Old Alabama Rd
The big playscape at the city's main park, in the middle of the Newtown Park loop with the pond, the dog park, and the amphitheater lawn around it.
The rest of the list
The other city playscapes
Ocee Park
10900 Buice Rd
Two playgrounds beside the turf ballfield complex, the weekend-morning standby for families who live on the Ocee side.
Cauley Creek Park
7255 Bell Rd
A playground near the park's field complex, with the 5K river trail loop starting nearby for the older kids.
Shakerag Park
10945 Rogers Circle
The quiet wooded park with a pond; the playground is smaller and the crowd is thinner, which some families prefer.
The honest note
Call ahead for the specific swing
Playground equipment is replaced on a rolling basis across the city parks, and a piece can be out of service during a rebuild. The parks department keeps the current status. The parks page has the full park list.
