Oscar Frazier Community Park
Next to baseball fields, Oscar Frazier Park is a solid option for a playground in Bluffton. When you think about traditional playgrounds, an image of Oscar Frazier Park could pop into your mind: steps and mini climbing wall attached to companion slides, and metal climbing structures, and a separate swing set.
The park is next to a large field, so you can entertain one child while the other plays in a ball game.
