The pets had a lot of fun running around and playing here. It's a large park and there's lots of room for people to do a variety of different activities and not be on top of one another. There was some construction going on, not sure what that was about, but hopefully something nice is coming. read more

I love this part, but it was near a senior center, and I was harassed by one of the Karen's outside She threatened to call the police on me because I was loitering around for too long due to an emergency coming up. Please control your Karen's at the senior center around your park, thank you. read more

This is a very nice park except for the restrooms but okay. There are baseball fields, football fields, picnic tables and even a play area for the kids. What I did not appreciate was the music that was being played for the boys during half time and in between plays! I believe the music was very inappropriate and I was offended by the language in this music. I mean come on when the songs have the N....word in them that is offensive to some of us! I feel as a spectator the music should be toned down and the league should be informed of this inappropriate music!!!!! read more

Great park to bring your kids. The larger playground is meant for older kids. I think ages 5-12. The slide is high and steep. I've seen kids fly off of there, so just keep an eye on that. There are two baseball fields which the West Covina American Little League plays on. My son plays baseball here. The snack-bar is open during season. From what I've been told by other parents, a football league also practices here. It's always pretty busy with sport games and practices. You will find two large parking lots. One located by the football field and the other by the Senior Center. Overall, a great park to visit. read more

Well maintained park, I feel safe every time I come and lay on the grass. Such a relaxing park

I love how nice the clean the park is. My child enjoys the playground area a lot since he's a toddler. I would recommend to anyone who's in the area. read more

Cortez Park is well kept and is a great place to walk your dog. There are two parking lots - one on each side of the park. You'll commonly see T-ball games and football and soccer practices here. They have three sheltered picnic areas where I've seen people host birthday parties. There are bathrooms on one side of the park but I've never been inside so I can't speak to the cleanliness of them. There is a playground as well but right now it's being renovated. I have seen one or two homeless people taking refuge in the picnic area by the playground but we just keep our distance. read more

We were headed back with the pup from a week in Palm Springs and wanted to swing by Ikea to pick up a few things. However, just driving through the crowded Ikea parking lot and seeing all the people with no masks and not social distancing scared us off that idea, so we kept on going and turned to Yelp to find a quick spot to stop for the dog to do her business. Turns out Cortez Park was close to Ikea, so we headed over. We parked in a lot that looked like it belonged to the senior center. It was a brief 10-minute stop, but the park seemed to be clean and uncrowded. I didn't see any bathrooms and there were no dog bags, but we carry our own. If we found ourselves in the neighborhood again, with the pup needing a bio break, we would definitely return. read more

I like very much that this park have a bicycle lane. We take of grandchildren to ride bicycle. Safe for them.

WARNING: No one wears mask at this park. Plenty of parking and pathways to walk or run. Many hills and stairs to do your exercises. Big fields to do recreational activities. The park is a little dirty but that's not the park's fault but the dirty people in the community. Nice views read more

Cortez Park - Cortez Park 10/3/2020 - Parks Near Me - West Covina, California

This park is great for playing and outdoor photography. They have two different parking lots on top and bottom. It's convenient to get to since it's off the freeway and it's a large park so tons of space. There's a few playgrounds, bathrooms and a fields the trees are large and offer a great amount of shade. There's also benches around to sit. I brought my daughter to photograph some pictures and the lighting here was great for midday. I suggest this park for photography and for relaxing or playing. read more

I came here with my Girlfriend and her family, for a celebration of life get-together in honor of a family member that recently passed away. It was a long drive for us to this location. However, the park is a very nice neighborhood park, clean, and gives a simple break for the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. The Park had ample room for everyone to gather. There looked to be a football field, baseball field, and unless I am mistaken basketball court. However, the park is green with trees, restrooms, and even ice-cream vendors available. The kids play area appeared to be safe and hazard free. Nearby restroom facilities, and not to far from the freeway. All in all a nice park for the neighborhood families to gather.. read more

The park landscape is very well maintained with lots of well manicured grass and trees. One star taken off due to the public restrooms- they were extremely filthy and not maintained and were old and dilapidated looking. read more

Such a great community park! I've lived in West Covina since I was 4-years old. I remember coming here for Boy Scout activities and more recently for church events with the youth. It's a very open layout and not very busy when I've visited. It's a great place to relax and enjoy nature and the outdoors. I recently drove into the parking lot to enjoy a canoli I bought just down the street. It has a football field, which is home to the Bruins pop warner team. If I remember correctly, there's at least one picnic area that's good for parties. It's in a great location, very close to a great commercial shopping area (Eastland Shopping Center). read more

Hidden gem, they have stairs!!!!! Very pretty park with so much room and things to do. Tables all far enough apart for excellent and safe conversation, well lit amd family filled. read more

Every experience at this park has been good. Had my daughter's 1st birthday party here a few years back and come here every so often to ruin around and let her run wild. They have a few "shelters" for rent through the city and the park is on two levels. Top level is by the senor citizens center so parking can get a bit packed on the weekend if mutiple events are going on. Playground and sports fields are on the bottom level along with the restrooms and another parking lot. I believe they even have a Horseshoe pit by the lower shelter too. We recently stayed coming here to utilize the hills that they have for working out. Every time I've been here the park is pretty well kept. They also changed the play area from sand to mulch which I prefer done you don't end up with sand all over the place when you leave. Los of families and seems pretty dog friendly. read more

Nice facility, plenty of space with multiple level grounds. The sports fields are well kept and the restrooms are decent.

Great open facilities. Bathrooms are not available after 6:30pm? We have been there when the maintenance people locked down the bathrooms at 6:45pm. But, the park signs says park is open 5am to 10pm? read more

This is a decent park located next to the senior center. Pretty of parking spot, but there is only one grill in there. In general, this is park for outdoor activist such as volleyball and football. Not crowded even during the weekend. We did a group Barbeque here by bringing on our grill and did have a good time. Park is clean and pretty well maintain in most area. read more

Nice park with lots of trees and green grass that's actually alive and nice to picnic on. Ample parking and it's nice and quiet on weekdays. Maybe even a little TOO quiet. I make it a rule that when I'm at a park alone with only my 10mo old son, I either go to parks where the play area & picnic area is near a pretty busy street or make sure there are a good number of people also using the park. The child's play area at Cortez park is kind of deep inside near the back of the park away from the street and since this park has very few people during the weekdays, I never really feel comfortable visiting alone. Not that I've seen any shady characters lurking about, I just feel you can never be too safety conscience when it comes to personal safety of yourself and your baby. read more

No better park to catch a nice little league game or a solid pop warner football game. Great shade! Great time!
