We stopped by Lower Bidwell Park on Tuesday because we had a couple of hours before a scheduled…read moreactivity. What a gem of a park. Beautiful trees shading an asphalt-paved walking/biking path. We really wanted to do loop walk, but never actually found that trail. I would want to give 4.5 if you could give half points, because more signage is needed to direct people toward the nature center and specific trails. That said, this park is such a great feature in Chico!

This is a really cute Park in a nice neighborhood that has a playground and a cement path where you…read morecan walk around and around all day. It's very useful and I love to see a lot of people be utilizing it. The park is clean and maintained and every time I have visited there have been a lot of people walking or playing with their dogs and children playing and riding bicycles. This is a great spot for a picnic or a walk or just to sit in the shade and relax. It also has one of those tiny free libraries in case you want to grab a book and just read for a while. They have two picnic tables, one on each side of the park and a water bottle refilling station. Even though it's a small park, I came here many times when I was in the area I would love to give it five stars but there is no restroom here and I saw lots and lots of people not picking up after their dogs. So walking in the beautiful green grassy area can be kind of a mind field. . Oh and they also have a couple of disc golf stations but I don't play and I never saw anyone using them just in case that helps.

I really love the volcanic water fountain. My kids love it and look forward to it each time we…read morevisit. However, yes, there is a however. The hours designated for use are kinda off. I think the fountain goes off at 6p and sometimes its entirely too HOT in Redding to be out there in the hours before that time, not to mention working parents may be at work thru the weekdays. I fear that the rocks on display, ( actual rocks )that kids jump dangerously, make it difficult to sit through,thinking a child may get seriously injured. The rocks should be made of foam or astro turf of some kind. Making it safer for some of our fearless children.

Although I love my big trees at Condon Park in Grass Valley I still thought this was a really nice park! We used the bbq and enjoyed the nice scenery (went early before it got hot). There is access to the river with a boat ramp. Tons of picnic areas! The grass is still green and well maintained ! I saw a few people trying to catch fish. Plenty of shady areas to enjoy your lunch! There is also play areas for the kiddos! Bathrooms were fairly clean. This place was well thought out with roundabouts and well marked exits. Walking paths ate pretty flat and they have ample amount of parking..including handicapped parking. I would definitely visit this place again. I would recommend going morning or afternoon to be on the safe side! Ps. They have LIVE music on Thursday nights when we get closer to summer!
