Used to take my kids to this park all the time they loved it and always drained their energy recommend to all moms

Review #184 - 2019 While we were waiting for my nephew to play his basketball game, I decided to take my daughter & niece to the nearest park which was less than five minutes drive from the school. We showed up around 4:15 PM on Saturday, July 20th & there were a lot of people there. It appeared that there were a few different kids's birthdays going on. It's a really nice size park. There was a soccer field, baseball field, two separate playgrounds & plenty of covered picnic tables. The only thing missing was a basketball court; which since my son was watching his cousin play, wasn't a very big deal. They had plenty of benches as well, some under the shades & some in the open. Even though it was 91 degrees out, it was still windy so I didn't mind the partly shaded benches since I needed a little bit of heat to keep warm from the wind. My 14-year old niece enjoyed the swings for a good half an hour. I'd definitely come back & have a family picnic here, even if it's a little out of the way. However, the bathroom could use some cleaning. read more

Clayton Community Park - 07/20/2019: Big kids's playground - Parks Near Me - Clayton, California

One of my favorite parks to take my 5 yr old daughter. They used to be closed on the weekends but now open (as of this review date 3/27/2022). Views are beautiful. Nice grassy area for the baseball field down below, 2 play structures up on top of the hill. One for little ones and another for big kids. Parking gets busy up at the playground, so you might need to park down below and walk up the steep hill. Quite hard to push up a stroller. Bathrooms are open and there is a water fountain, but not sure if it's working. Picnic tables have top cover so helpful, but play structured don't have a covered area. read more

Beautiful, nice park in a quiet neighborhood. Spacious, clean bathrooms with lots of grass, cows in view, and plenty of stuff to do on the actual playgrounds. The picnic tables are perfect for a large group, with ample shade. Parking was easy, as well. read more

A nice little park in a nice little city! It's easy to miss, so look for the park entrance right at the edge of town. The entrance has parking at the immediate right for the lower and large ball field. Go up the hill further to the upper parking where the rest of the facilities are located. It's tucked away, so keep that in mind on solo visits. The park facilities are fairly new, clean, and seem to be well kept. They do have an application on their website for reserving use on various areas, so look into that for large groups. Parking space is about right for most events, but I could see running out for team sports. My first and only visit was pretty cold December morning to meet up with high school friends and their families. It had snowed in that area a couple weeks before, so I was sure it would be cold - wasn't sure I was gonna go or stay long if did go. Mr Z. talked convinced my to stop waffling and get over there! Though the cold was not very comfortable, it was good to see friends and the families they are raising. The little ones took advantage of the play structure while everyone spent time at the picnic tables eating pizza followed by drinking rounds of coffee. A few ventured around the hill side and bit and enjoyed the view all around. It was a nice place for a family and friends get-together. It's a nice little park that will serve this community well! read more

The best thing that Clayton has ever done. Not all Claytonites wanted to support a Park. However, it has invigorated the town and made a place for young and old to congregate. The concerts are a nice addition but the best thing is to see people enjoying the park almost every day. read more

Love this park for a quiet, fairly large play area. Has some ball fields and a hill and some walking paths. We'll go here to avoid crowds at other locations and Clayton seems to keep their parks up. read more

Clayton Community Park - Parks Near Me - Clayton, California

It's a beautiful park with great tables, shade and barbecues. Decent sized playground with relatively well kept equipment. Huge baseball and soccer fields. The problem: gnats. Thousands of them all over the play equipment and tables. Hundreds of them swarming all over your barbecue. When I went to my car to get something, the entire car was encased in gnats. Honest to God. My daughter was freaking out the entire time we were there. I am surprised no one else has mentioned this in the reviews. read more

I met a co-worker and her family here today to watch her son's little league game. It's the first time I've been to a little league game in Clayton, and my first time at this park. I spent a little bit of time on the playground with her daughter in between her son's innings at-bat. There are a few fields here and they all had games taking place while we were there. A private parking lot at the top of the hill has lots of parking, and there are also spots on the side of the road leading up the hill, and near the park at the bottom when you turn onto Regency Drive from Marsh Creek. The fields were nice and in good condition. The playground was also really neat, and had a play area for 2-5 year olds separate from the one for children a little bit older (who can play unassisted). There are several tables and shaded areas, and also paths that lead to the open space. I used the women's restroom and sadly a small, injured bird lay writhing in pain and flopping around one of the stalls. I didn't even know what to do about this, except go home sad, with a heavy heart for this hurting animal. As we drove away, (I swear this happened), like a scene from the nature channel, a hawk swooped down and grabbed a different bird, and it screeched in fear and pain, fought the hawk, but was eventually carried off for dinner. It made me want to bring the other bird out of the stall where it was dying and let nature "take it's course" but I drove off instead, not being able to bring myself to pull the scared creature outside it's concrete tomb. Aside from the uniquely sad scene I witnessed in the bathroom, this is a really cool community park. read more

This park is very clean and large for my kids to run and play. Great play structure and plenty of solid grass to play ball. And a store next to it for drinks and snacks. Perfect spot in down town Clayton. Very safe here and no broken glass or needles like a majority of other parks. read more

This is the most under utilized community park, and I have no idea why. The play structure is large, newish, and different. We love it. There's ample space for having a picnic on the grass, or on one of the picnic tables. There's a walking path where kids can ride their bikes and scooters. The only drawback I can think of is that it's on the top of a hill in direct sun. The play structure area gets really hot depending on season and time of day. read more

Great, clean park. People are friendly and it's in the center of town. It feels safe and welcoming. You can play with your kids at the park and grab a bite to eat nearby. read more

Up past Diablo View Middle school is this little community park tucked away and hidden up the hill. Though, it's not actually that small. Two diamonds for games, two play areas with a jungle gym for the kids, a handful of swings and a pathway for walking the dogs. Also some grills and enough tables under a covering for a good number of people. Perfect for an outdoor party! Come enjoy the sunshine! read more

Love this park. Separate structure for younger and older kids, plenty of covered tables to sit at, ball parks to run around in, scenic views looking over the hills in the area and best of all, super uncrowded. Easy to bring your picnic dinner and let the youngest tire herself out while the dog runs after the ball. Perfect park. read more
