About This Splash Pad
Blue Springs Splash Pad, located at Burrus Old Mill Park in Blue Springs, Missouri, offers families a refreshing way to cool off during the warm summer months. Situated at 112 NW Woods Chapel Rd, this splash pad is conveniently accessible to residents and visitors throughout the area. The splash pad operates daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. during the season, which runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day, making it a perfect destination for summer family outings.
One of the standout features of this attraction is that it's completely free to use, making it an excellent budget-friendly option for families looking to beat the heat without breaking the bank. The splash pad represents a recent enhancement to Burrus Old Mill Park, which underwent renovations funded through the 1/2-cent Park Sales Tax that Blue Springs voters approved in 2017. This investment in community infrastructure brought the city's first splash pad to this beloved 14-acre park space.
Beyond the splash pad itself, families will appreciate the expansive park grounds that offer additional recreational opportunities. The broader park is open to the public from 6 a.m. to midnight daily, providing extended hours for those who want to enjoy other park amenities outside of splash pad operating times. This makes Burrus Old Mill Park an ideal destination for morning walks, picnics, or evening activities alongside the splash pad experience.
The park holds significant historical importance as well, being located on the site where the City of Blue Springs was founded. Just south of the park across Walnut Street lies the natural spring for which the city was named, adding a touch of local heritage to your visit. Whether families are visiting specifically for the splash pad or planning a full day of outdoor recreation, Burrus Old Mill Park provides a welcoming, cost-free environment for summer fun and community enjoyment.
