Laurel Park
151 Manning Road, Marietta
 Whether
your kids love slides, swings or climbing features,
they’ll have a ball at Laurel Park’s playground.
Joan Good of Marietta’s four kids, ages 3 to 13,
all enjoy the playground. “It’s fun for everybody.
It’s big, there is lots to do and it usually isn’t
that crowded,” she said.
The playground’s most popular feature is the
glider. Children can grab the handle and zip between
two platforms. “There’s usually a really long line;
kids just beg to go on,” Good said.
A variety of other fun features include seven
slides, various monkey bars, climbing features and
other activities, all connected by paths and
tunnels. There’s also a separate structure for tots
and a set of eight swings.
Wrap up your fun by visiting the lake directly
behind the playground. You can feed the ducks or
take in the view from one of the park benches.
