Oneills Park is a park in Bayswater, on Auckland's North Shore, holding a 3.8 rating from five Google reviews. Reviewers are blunt about it being bare: nothing there, not even a place to sit.
Parks vary enormously, from fully equipped playgrounds with toilets, shade and drinking fountains to simple grassed reserves that are really just open space. It pays to check what a park offers before you set out, especially with children, since a pretty patch of grass is a different outing to a playground with seating and picnic tables. Regulars at bare reserves tend to arrive self-sufficient: a rug or folding chairs, water, and sun protection, since shade and benches can't be counted on. Auckland Council's park pages are useful for checking what's actually on site.
As a quiet, low-key green patch handy for Bayswater locals, Oneills Park rewards those who come prepared rather than those expecting facilities.
