    My father used to come to this park when he is little- when we're growing up, my mom would ride…read morebicycles with us to this park and have a picnic. Many years later, I bring my children here and now a few generations later my grandchildren enjoy this park. My dad volunteered at the library at the park for many years and we ended up holding his celebration of life here (both in the rose garden and inside library). I have years of memories of hanging out here using the swimming pool, climbing trees, playing tennis & I used to run around the park when I lived nearby. We had roses planted in the Rose garden for my grandmother, my aunt and a child who died at birth. However, when they were redoing the rose garden, we had to take the plaques with us and now I have my aunts and grandma's plaque in my backyard with the same rose from the original rose garden. Shortly before my mother passed, we brought her to this park in her wheelchair and sat under a tree, enjoying a picnic with three generations of us. Needless to say this park holds numerous cherished memories.

The space was beautiful and easy to decorate, and was perfect for our crowd, and would be perfect for any gathering. There were several metal picnic benches large enough for 9 people per bench and the space had a nice roof/canopy to keep us out of the sun. There were bathrooms close by, so that was very helpful. There was plenty of toilet paper on hand, and a blower to dry your hands but no running water. I would recommend bring a large container of water, and wipes and set up away from the crowd for emergency hand washing. There were also two drinking fountains, but no running water there either. So come prepared.

    McKinley Park - The trees around the park are amazing! It's a great place to ground yourself.

    This was such a nice stop during our visit to Sacramento this past weekend. We're usually on the…read moreother side of the water in Old Sac, but wanted to check out the park and get closer to the river. The water levels were definitely high, with concrete pathways leading directly  into the water at some parts. But there is a public dock designed to rise with the water, so we were able to walk along the pier to enjoy some of the views while standing over the water (Old Sac waterfront, Delta King, Tower Bridge). We even saw (and heard) sea lions jumping onto the end of the dock, stretching out, playing, and relaxing, it was adorable! Back on land we walked along the trail on higher ground, watched the geese feasting on the plentiful grass, and admired the trees and nature all around. We even passed by the Subtile artwork by Federico Diaz and loved how it fit into the surroundings. The park and trail provided a calm and simple environment, and was clean for the most part (though underneath the bridge seemed a bit uninviting), and we appreciated every moment of our Sunday afternoon here. Parking was free and easy on Waterfront Place, near the Ziggurat (pyramid looking building).

    This walk is so pretty and I'm a little sad I didn't discover it earlier…read more 1 star for it being easy to find parking 1 star for seeing lots of dogs 1 star for the gorgeous river view through the entire walk 1 star for the art installations (I'm sharing a photo of one) 1 star for all the pokemon go stops If I were to find a downside, it's that during certain times of the year, there are foxtails to the right and left of the paved path, so if your dog is reactive and you like to step off the path when another dog is coming to avoid a scene, it can feel like you're a little trapped. I'll definitely go back though.
