Mulberry Fields Splash Pad

9645 Whitestown Road, Zionsville

There’s not one but TWO splash pads at Mulberry Fields in Zionsville! One splash pad is a typical splash pad setup, with above-ground tunnels that mist water and multiple spray features. The other splash pad is a shallow area with rocks, puddles and trickling water — like a creek — so you feel like you’re creek stomping. Both of the splash pads at Mulberry Fields are perfect for kids of all ages. This is one of the more unique splash pads in the area!
