Hands down one of the cleanest, most convenient parks in the Irvine area!…read more There are several baseball fields, tons of gated tennis courts, playgrounds for the kids, countless picnic areas that are numbered for parties and gatherings. I think what makes this park stand out is the crowd. Any park can be beautiful but, without the proper maintenance from the park crew (and most importantly the park goers) it doesn't stand a chance. You see tons of regulars here with their dogs, families, kids. Everyone is friendly and respectful of one another. The dog crowd at this park is also one of the best I've seen. Although the park is not off leash, there's wide open areas for you to allow your fur family to play catch, run around, and have a bit of freedom! They do have a couple of posts that have doggie bags however, they run out quick so please do come prepared with your own poop bags just in case! There are plenty of water fountains throughout with water filling stations attached, so don't forget a bowl for your fur family!!

There were quite a few cars in the lot already. However, we didn't see a lot of people milling around as the park covers quite an extensive area. The park features a flower garden with a fountain near its center. Beyond that are several picnic shelters amidst an elaborate children's playground. Further on, there is a large expanse of grass area amidst soccer fields, base ball diamond and tennis courts. There are paved walk paths through out the complex that winds up and down the various terrains. Overall it's a nice place to enjoy a leisure walk!

BEST PLACE FOR A BIRTHDAY PARTY! My son had the time of his…read morelife here with his friends and family. We viewed the place with manager, Alan, then rented online for the full court for 2 hours. When we arrived, we were greeted by the owner ( who was so welcoming and kind). We used the party room upstairs which was soooo spacious, nicely designed, clean and well equipped with benches for viewing, a kitchen, sink, counter space for food and drinks and even kids chairs and TV. Also we could play music while the kids played basketball. I give the place a solid 10 out of 10. They also have basketball leagues for kids. We will definitely be back!

If you're looking for a fun, unique, and hoop-friendly place to host a party, this is it! Highly recommend!

Briana was so kind in taking the time to explain how certain equipment and machines work. She was very patient and helpful to me. The front desk staff are always kind and helpful.

I believe climbing on it might have a price, but it also might be free now. Im most interested in checking out what else we can do here. There are cooking classes that are associated with student vs. member fees. The only thing that sucks is that if you want to work out here you need to have a parking permit which is a whole membership fee within itself.

We were there for a friendship potluck, that would be located inside the Sweet Shade Clubhouse. The constructive feedback; the gentleman in charge of the clubhouse, (not sure how to put this) but I felt they were nitpicking, Requiring the trash bins / cans inside the clubhouse that stunk, with germs, bacteria, etc. had no Lysol, one had to reach in to get the replacement bags. Not very hygienic. I was under the impression that The two gentlemen in the clubhouse did not care and wanted us to dump the trash bags into the dumpster afterwards, which is fine, (and they weren't going to facilitate or lift the finger ) but there was trash - semi full and it would be really cool if they took out the trash bins to wash them out or had some type of antibacterial spray to use. - they didn't and it seem like they just didn't care. It could've easily been a five star review, but wasn't.

While you can't reserve the picnic tables outside, you can reserve the multi-purpose room, exercise room, and kitchen for a fee. They have two baseball fields, tennis courts, basketball courts, soccer fields, a kids playground, lots of grassy areas, and a walking path around the exterior. It's a big enough park that you can find a quiet part and is good for picnics. Bonus points for having tons of parking in the parking lot.

We enjoyed walking the paved paths through the neighborhood to get to the shopping center nearby to get some boba from Class 302 and for food. There's also another playground along the paths.
