King's Castle
King's Castle Provincial Park, Prince Edward Island. It is located on Gladstone Road just east of Murray River. One of the best kept secrets of the Island. This is the ideal place to bring younger kids up to about 10 and it's free.
I went here with my 3rd cousins (4 and 5 years old). We met with a few other friends and family. In all there were 9 kids. They all had a great time and not one of them wanted to leave at the end of the day. This place was absolutely the best. From the merry-go-round, to the swings, to the many different slides, to the wooden castle. The kids played on and explored them all.
There's a washroom, canteen, some vending machines, ample shade with all the surrounding trees and a lot of picnic tables. The staff here is fantastic and very friendly. You can bbq here. We thought there would be fire pits or something so we didn't bring a bbq of our own. The staff loaned us one they kept in a shed.
Murray river is right on the shore of the park and there's actually a trailer park (not sure if the trailer park portion is free) on the other side of the trees. Definitely worth a trip if you're ever on the Island with younger kids.
