Is It Worth Repairing A Wooden Backyard Playset?

I have a single family rental property that is 3 bedroom 2.5 bath that is in a neighborhood that attracts a lot of families with kids. There is a Wooden play set in the backyard that needs to be repaired, but I am trying to make sure it is worth investing money into (with the price of lumber, I estimate it may take $100-$200 to repair)?

I see it as an additional perk for the property, but just wanted to double check the opinions of others here.

@Robert Smith Funny, my brother-in-law just bought a house that has a playset in the back, it too is in need of repair. Honestly, if it is at a rental property, I would either get rid of it or fix it up, don't want it to become a liability. Since it may take as much time taking it down, you might as well take the time fixing it up?
