What is more appropriate alongside Lake Arbor than a lake-themed playground?! This has been a favorite for our family because it is appropriate for all ages, has a beautiful view and, you guessed it, there is a scavenger hunt too!

Lake Arbor Park Logistics

Address: 6450 Pomona Dr, Arvada, CO 80003

Bathroom: Yes, there are portables available near the swings.

Shade: Not much above the playground, however, there are many trees to provide shade for a picnic or quick break.

Surface: Combination of wood chips and rubber surfacing.



Age Recommendations: The Lake Arbor playground is built for ages 2 to 12. The older kids will love the challenge that the rope structure provides and the little ones will love the lake-themed bouncers and games.

Inclusive Features: There is rubber surfacing that connects to the sidewalk for easy access. With this type of play structure though, there are not many opportunities for those with wheelchairs or physical disabilities to play.

Swings: Yes, there is 1 traditional belt swing and 1 baby swing.

Water Features: None.


Love the sunglasses we’re always wearing? It’s time to get a pair for yourself! goodr sunglasses are great quality, inexpensive, polarized and don’t slip off while running or playing!

Unique Features of Lake Arbor Park

As I shared above, the playground at Lake Arbor has a lake/wetlands theme. You can spot “fish” in the water below, count the cattails and bounce on a nearby turtle. This structure is called the Branch Out and we love all of the different ropes and obstacles that surround it.

Lake Arbor Park also has a Scavenger Hunt! You will love searching the play equipment with your kiddos for these little symbols. They are hidden down low and super high, making it fun to turn into a running obstacle course or race!

Surrounding Area Highlights

Lake Arbor is a beautiful open spot! The walking path around the lake is 1.16 miles making it a nice loop for the whole family. There is also a basketball half circle court and baseball practice fields.

Tip: If there’s some wind, take along a kite! We saw some kites flying high the last time we were there are it looked like so much fun.

Thanks for joining us at Slides & Sunshine. Now it’s time to get out there and PLAY!

Don’t forget to Pin for later!
