We felt so relaxed when we were there and even took a nap! Unfortunately, we were woken up by the summer breeze. It can be quite chilly in the day if you're napping under a tree.

I came on a Sunday afternoon and there were a few parking spots left. There is a big grass area, sizable playground, and some picnic tables scattered around. From this park, you can actually take a paved trail called Greenwood Gulsh across the street (look it up on Google Maps), which then takes you to another park called Ron Foell Park. Nice little loop between the two parks. Dog friendly park as well. Quiet and safe.

My toddler is advanced and can do playgrounds no problem but thing thing is literally for kids 7 and up. Even then it's so dangerous because there's way too many ways to fall off the play set. They do have a "toddler area" which is a small wood playhouse and wood/rope climbing area. And even that I wouldn't let my little one near because it's too easy for her to fall onto wood logs edge and get cut. Just very poor bad "modern" design. We only go cause it's walking distance and even then it's work because I'm constantly watching my daughter to make sure she doesn't fall off. Nothing enclosed at all. Truly dislike this playground for kids under 7. We've gone 7+ times and I never see kids climb to top of this playground or anything. Such a waste. Would rather make the drive to Heritage or Tustin Sports Park or literally any other park.

This was a cool little park we visited on Thursday morning…read more Parking is round the outside, on the main street, so it's quite busy. I didn't like that. Once you walk over the play area you can see that they have some really awesome and different play equipment. I liked that. There was some rubbish in various areas of the park. The older kids area is shaded, but unfortunately come 10am the little play area with the yellow and blue structure is right in the sun. There's also an area for very young kids and that was shaded. There are no swings. It's a little out of my way to come here, so I won't be back in a hurry. There are toilets.

Nature is very much respected. It's also absolutely gorgeous! There's little Creeks, tiny waterfalls, the nature preserve itself is stunning, they have an area set up just for little birds to come visit that is beyond adorable, the birds you can come up to you! Well at least they did with us. I've also been to several weddings here, it's a really nice venue. Especially if people put lights up and have a dusk wedding OMG Parking is free, cheaper than therapy, wonderful break from the rat race.

Having (embarrassingly) not been as active lately as we used to be on hikes, my friend and I came with our dogs and set out on the creek trail, which is about a 2 mile loop. The trail is well-maintained and wide, making it an ideal warm-up for more experienced hikers and great for outdoorsy families. The day we came, someone was even taking their graduation photos there! As of mid-May 2026, there wasn't very much water on the creek/dam trail, but it's nicely shaded and home to many vining plants and bird species. We ended up moseying through parts of different trails like Bobcat and Meadow, but signage is excellent and very clear (distance, easy/moderate/difficult). You could also rent the event space towards the entrance for weddings and other celebrations; the facilities are clean, and they clearly take care of the grounds. Parking is $5 at the kiosk, but well worth it in my opinion! There's a paved parking lot to the right past the kiosk and you can pick up a map on your way in.

The play area is kind of enclosed, which is nice if you have small kids and want to keep them in one spot. I went in the morning, and the sand pit was in the shade, and a little damp. That probably changes once we head further into summer. There are two play areas- one for bigs, one for littles. There is tree bark/mulch stuff on the floor which I wasn't too keen on for my little guy, who is still crawling. There's a huge field and a pavillion with a BBQ. It's a decent neighbourhood park.

Shhhh, don't come here…read more I live in a neighboring development, so this has been my home park for nearly a decade. It is always well maintained with a nice little recessed area for soccer/softball/Frisbee/whatever. There is one backetball court, some play sets, a beach volleyball pit, a shaded pavilion, and lots of benches and BBQs. It is connected via greenbelts to the corner of Chapman and Newport if you want to take a walk to the market or to get a bite, and to Peter's Canyon for hiking. A lot of mountain bikers park here on weekend mornings before heading over to Santiago Oaks. It does get a fair share of birthday parties/big groups, but even with something going on, there is usually a spot you can get away from the madness.
