Comments/additional information about public restroom/toilet:

There are no soap dispensers or paper towels/hand dryers.
To use the restroom you must maneuver around a corner that is 40 inches wide that also has picnic tables blocking the wheelchair from backing up too much. Once inside the single universal restroom, there is plenty of space for a wheelchair to maneuver within and for someone to easily transfer from wheelchair to toilet. To lock the bathroom door you must push a 1/2" button in on the lever door handle. The sink is low enough for all to use and allows knee space underneather for a wheelchair. The spout has a push down that needs about 2-3 pounds of pressure to use.

Notes about physical inclusion

Any additional information about physical accessibility you feel would be helpful to people with disabilities and their families
There are multiple picnic tables located throughout the park that are wheelchair accessible. There are multiple concrete paths to take all over the park that have grooves in them. The main path leading from the wheelchair accessible entrance in the parking lot is formed by cobblestones that have moved over time, creating an uneven ramp surface.
