And I agree it'd have been prior to the 80's

Mom said it lasted until 1979ish and she seems to think it was called Kiddie-Land off of R.D. Mize Rd.

And that was my Grandparents exit. There was a Waffle House and a Conoco right off the ramp, and a left turn would take you by a couple of Motel/Hotels I think. That was the road that park was on. Right turn was over toward Woods Chapel Rd, and I think it would take you to 40 Hwy. I also remember Blue Springs Nissan and a Perkins around there back in the day. Sorry to hijack, just sort of reliving my youth. ![]() |

![]() I bought my first bottle of alcohol at Bergiglia on 350HWY when I turned 21. God, that seems like an eternity and yesterday at the same time. ![]() |

Homestead Park/Kiddie Land lasted until the mid to late 80s. It was on R.D. Mize about 1 mile south of Pink Hill Road. They used to have the "HOMESTEAD" letters in the fence that faced R.D. Mize.
See attached. |

That exit is actually Woods Chapel but yes - they may have RD Mize on the sign too because it intersects w/ WC. Road.
