Innovation Hills in Rochester Hills to your must-visit list (it recently won the “Park Design of the Year” Award)! The 110 acre greenspace is a sight to see in metro Detroit and features one of the largest playgrounds in Michigan.

Phase 1 of the Innovation Hills playground is now open to the public and it’s incredible. With 5 unique play areas and a sensory garden there is something for all ages, interests and abilities. Kids will love the massive tree house, climbing features, turf hill for box sliding, musical instruments and water features. Parents will appreciate the ample amounts of cafe-style and picnic tables for snacks to go or relaxing while kids play safely on the playground. The playground is right next to the parking lot but enclosed to prevent kids from running off or being near traffic.

In addition, to the playground, Innovation Hills has a 1-mile paved trail and ADA accessible boardwalk that are perfect for strollers and little legs to walk, bike or scoot! Stroll at night and see the sidewalk GLOW!

Innovation Hills is the largest playground we’ve ever been too – and we’ve been to a lot of playgrounds. Call a friend and schedule a playdate because you want to visit this park.
