This park boasts two playgrounds, a water splash area for the kids, tennis courts and an awesome 18 hole disc golf course. There is a dog park as well for the furry family members. Shaded picnic tables for gatherings available. The only downside is there is often a large homeless population drinking in the park at the benches, however they keep to themselves. Come here with the kiddos or just enjoy a great round of disc golf!

There is a short uphill part that takes you up the mountain to an obelisk, which is really cool! Especially in late February - April, everything is super green and the weather is just perfect. Since this trail is dog friendly, you will see a ton of dogs around and my three dogs always have a really great time! This trail also has sections that are biker and horse friendly, so keep that in mind if you have dogs or kids. Always look forward to coming back to this trail with my hubby and pups!!

One of my favorite things about this park is that it is never too busy or packed, like most other dog parks in SLO county are. Usually when we go, we have the park all to ourselves! There is a mix of grass and sand, as well as a pergola with seating and various benches scattered throughout the park. It's perfect for launching dog balls and playing catch. My one dog that loves playing catch has an absolutely blast here! Highly recommend this park for your pups!

Each time the owner "they've never done that before". Hey it did that last time we were here! I had to kick the dog in the face because it attacked me while the owner was on the phone. This is the place people take their horrible dogs because they can't control them in public. It's too bad because my dog loves to play and go into the pool. He's just happy go lucky, a golden retriever, very mellow. There is nice seating and shade but it can be dangerous.

The Templeton Park is a 3.5 acre park a block away from South Main Street. The park looks to be well maintained and clean. It has big canopy shade trees, green lawns, children's play area, swimming pool, gazebo, group picnic areas with Santa Ana bbq grills, and public restrooms. There are paved walking paths. Great for a walk about. I saw lots of folks seizing the moment and enjoying a blissful summer day. The park hosts community events... farmers market on Saturdays 9am-12pm and summer music concerts to name a few.

We knew it was drizzling, but hadn't had a message that the party was called off, so we headed up to Templeton Park to meet up with the rest of the family. At first the park looked empty, then we spied a group gathered in the picturesque gazebo in the center of the park. We parked close and walked over to discover our far flung family gathered for a festive birthday. The gazebo! Of course! Great shelter from the rain and room for at least thirty people to mill around. The kids were lining up for pin the tail on Pikachu as we arrived, then they took turns battering a pinata till the candy cascaded to the cement. As the rain came and went, the kids could run in and out of the shelter while we grownups congregated on folding camp chairs or just stood around chatting. We welcomed the rain and were so happy we got to safely enjoy an outdoor event!

Speaking of the incline, it meets my standards by starting low and going up fairly gradually. The views are incredible, and the hike back easy. It did feel longer than the posted signs claimed.
