This is a great themed citrus park for kids. Metal lemon crate boxes for steps up a slide, sliced lemons all over, and nice spongy ground to walk on with sand around. There is also a smaller kids playground. Do not get directions from Yelp to this place though, it took us to a mobile park in Santa Ana. This park is on Portola Parkway, so either take Jamboree or Tustin Ranch Rd to get there. Beautiful park. read more

Beautiful and clean park! Perfect for family time, picture time and walking the doggy time. I loved the fact that they have a separate toddler section and older kids playground area. My son really enjoyed his time at the park as well as my chiweenie. Will definitely be back!! read more

I love the multi-level action at this park. Lots of bridges for the kids to cross and climb! The playground equipment is state-of-the-art and features that soft-turf ground so the kids can fly around without hurt. The lowest level is home to the baby/toddler play structure.There's also some super soft sand too for the castle building. Kids like to bring pieces of cardboard to 'sled' on the soft turf steep hill under the bridge, definitely not what the hill was designed for, but when there's no snow, these Tustin kids have to get creative. If you hike to the top of the orchard, there's a really great city view. So why only 3 stars? This park is really great overall but it's missing one really important thing ... SHADE!!!!!!!!!! Obviously this is a new park, so why weren't shade structures included in the plan? So the city could save a few bucks? Ugh. Wonderful park, wonderful playground, practicality unusable for 70% of year. read more

Great Views, Fun, & pretty Clean Park. We luv to hang out here with families and friends.

Despite being an excellent park in and of itself, it also directly connects to sprawling horse trails which make for a better running surface than concrete. read more

Great park I like how it has its own little playground for smaller toddlers my son liked it. And I also like how there is a walking area through the lemon Grove to the scenic view on top on the hill. This park is great for the kid and to take a stroller up through the lemon grove. read more

Cool little park with lots of lemon trees! Clean and kid friendly, it's a good place to have a nice time with friends and family.

Citrus Ranch Park is a nice park with an easy trail with rows and rows of lemon trees. When you reach the top point, there is a nice gazebo-like structure with a beautiful view of the city. If you decide to walk among the lemon trees, there are bugs and fallen lemons. It is a good workout if you are looking to go for an outdoor morning stroll. There are a couple of areas to eat with concrete tables which are very close to the (clean) restrooms and the children's playground. There's a lot of parking available which is a plus. Parking is free. read more

2 stars...because the lemons go to waste....no one is allowed to pick them....the city doesn't harvest them to give to the community or to sell at a local farmers market.....another example of the disregard developers have for the history of what was there before....wasteful wasteful wasteful. ..shame on Tustin read more

One of my fav parks in Tustin/Irvine as its always clean and immaculate. This park can accommodate almost any sport and if it involves grass they have some of the best kept greens around. Designated dog areas as well. read more

Yay I love this park! I use this park as a jumping off point to run the trails, and it is awesome! There is tons of stuff for kids to play on. There's a great hill surrounded by citrus trees, and there's a great spot at the top to check out the view and stretch. Just one criticism, and it's not of the park itself. It's a word of warning to dog owners and walkers...leash your dog! Seriously! read more

This is a super well designed and attractive park. The city fathers of Tustin did us a great favor developing this one with very nice playground areas for the kids, good barbecue and picnic areas, clean restrooms and a nice hilltop gazebo It boasts fine views of the surrounding areas as well as distant mountains. read more

Really fun park for 3 year olds, has enough playground equipment and natural hills to keep them moving and entertained. There is a smaller side for the little ones which is equally as nice, depending on where you stand you can see both playgrounds. read more

This is a beautiful city park. It gives you a chance to take a short hike up a small hill and enjoy the grove of lemon trees. It is a tiny park that's perfect for young kids. They can play in their very up to date playground and have a picnic lunch. I'll probably go back again with my family and bring my dog so they can enjoy the park as much as I did. read more

Haiku park review: Small suburban park // More appealing for young ones // Great view at the top read more

Awesome park for catching Pokemon!! A group of random trainers of all ages can be found perusing the park for the legendary cute Pokemon. I found a clefairy here! As fellow trainers ran around catching Pokemon and strategized how to take out the gym leaders, the parents are grinning from ear to ear to hear their kids talk about how they hiked miles to find Pokemon! This park is really friendly for all ages. The lemon trees are a nice touch that makes you feel like you're in a storybook. At sunset, as sun kisses the horizon goodbye and you can see the rustic lights turn on along the pathway down the lemon grove. The gazebo area at the top overlooks the wonderful views of Tustin and on a clear day, you can see Catalina Island and Mount Baldy. This park is a nice reprieve for the overworked soul. This park is also a great stop for kids to play in the playground. There's also a picnic area.... And for those training their Pokemon - it's a stop for two gyms and two poke stops! read more

Met up with family from out of town with my boys and I really fell in love with this park (if that's even possible!). Very clean, lots of great activities for kids to climb on, plenty of space to run around, and lots of shady spots to take a rest. I definitely will be coming back to explore what else the park has to offer. read more

The first time we went to this park was a hot day and oooh were we sweating ! my 1 year old definitely enjoyed the playground for toddlers ( for children 5 and up is separated ) so thats one thing that we loved ! she had a great time playing with some of the little kids and after she had enough we went hiking up the hill towards the lemon trees and we saw some of the fruits at the top of the hill is an awesome view ! but i would definitely suggest a few benches or some shade up there on the way to the top . Over all experience was pretty amazing we enjoyed the view. But if you would like to hold a party I suggest to call ahead of time because theres only one place in the whole park to hold a party read more

Such a nice park. Small but beautiful. Great for bday parties, which is why I was there!! Very nicely manicured and ample parking!!! Will back again! read more

Great Park. Very clean, 2 playgrounds (older and younger). The older playground really is greared towards kids 7+ in years. They have some really, really high ledges and stair areas that are pretty creepy for parents of kids who are toddlers. However, toddlers (at least our son) really likes the older playground. There is a bridge from the upper picnic table area to the play equipment. It's cute. The smaller playground is nice for the babies and younger toddlers. Nice path to walk, too. Ample parking. Bathrooms available. Trees and shade in some areas, sand (yick) and playmats, tables (but no shade around them or near them). read more
