Memorial Park in Royal Oak Location and Hours

The 24 acre park is located on the northeast corner of 13 Mile and Woodward. The park is open daily from 6:00 am until 8:00 pm.

Park Amenities

While visiting we noticed that the restrooms and concessions were not available, but probably would be open during baseball games or maybe seasonally.

Memorial Park Playground

The first of the two play structures has a bridge, many slides, monkey bars, and other fun features. The area is padded with wood chips and is appropriate for about ages 4 and up. However, there are a few large drop offs by the monkey bars and fireman pole that may pose a threat for children with a developing sense of depth perception.

In the same area there is a digger toy as well as a large dinosaur the children can play on. Child swings are also within a few feet of this structure. Off in the distance is a second older wooden structure. This play area features many climbing areas, a rolling slide, tire swing, monkey bars and other fun items. Rosa enjoyed playing in the sand for quite some time in this area. Toddler swings are located close to this play area.

Again this structure would be good for children of at least four years of age. Overall the park was well maintained, offered picnic table and bench seating near the play structures and garbage cans that were a perfect distance away from the play areas. Even though this park is located near three major roads, there is a good distance between the road and the play areas. I didn’t see a lot of parking near the play areas. More image are available in our photo gallery.

Other Park Features

In addition to the playground, Memorial Park is home to a football field, baseball, and tennis courts. Guests may also enjoy the picnic tables and pavilion.
