5850 WynnWood Rd, Bethesda, MD. Off Massachusetts Ave.(map)

This neighborhood park has a large playground, tennis courts, and a basketball court.

The playground very good, larger than the ones at most of the area parks. It has lots of swings, five slides (one is double), a couple of pieces climbing equipment, trains to play on, and more. It is cushioned with a thick layer of mulch. The tennis courts and basketball court are open for everyone. There are lots of trees in the park, but it gets some sun too.

The park is right next to Wood Acres Elementary School, people often take their dogs to walk in the park and play in the adjacent ball fields.
