Nelson Park

Nice Little Park, Small and has just the right amenities (Playground, Covered Picnic Tables & Restrooms) and it even has a bit of history in that the Martinson Cabin is there which allows you to explore life in Washington State at the turn of the 20^th century, with artifacts dating from the 1880s. On Saturdays it is open and more can be learned. Even the Park House is an old Farmhouse restored with some history to it.
Seems Well Kept, Nice Equipment and the restrooms are clean. There is a phone number posted in the Covered area in case you want to reserve it for future dates. Close & easy to get to when you don’t have time to go far.

A great pit stop for those with toddlers. Yes — parking lot! Yes– safe play structure (plastic) which is fun for little ones, but not too tall to be scary for parents. Yes — grassy knoll to roll around in and look at bugs. Yes– bathrooms (semi– decently clean). This park is Almost as fun as the ferry ride over from Seattle!

Tucked away in a busy intersection of Poulsbo (well, as busy as any intersection in Poulsbo can be), is a piece of Poulsbo history. It is the Nelson cabin and grounds. The cabin gives a glimpse into life from a long time ago.
Other than the historic intrest and close proximity to downtown, there is not a whole lot going on here but if you in the area, it it interesting.
