Central Park in Milford boasts plenty of free options for children's activity while being less than a five-minute walk from Milford's downtown district.

Central Park's most dominant feature that will catch your eye is the massive playscape in the center of the park. The playscape is flanked by several swing-sets and has plenty of space to roam even on the park's busiest days.

Another unique feature of Central Park is that it is located along the Huron River. The park's beach has become a popular loading/unloading spot for kayakers/canoers and other water-going types. You can also utilize the large, open areas along the river for picnics and other events while taking in a scenic view.

As a whole, Milford's Central Park offers plenty of options while staying completely free. However, no animals are allowed and parking may be an issue during the busy season. So be sure to plan your trip in advance!
