SCV has some many wonderful parks and this is one of the top ones. It's nestled in a neighborhood up in Stevenson's Ranch. It's a nice safe park due to it being off of the street. There is plenty of parking, and also plenty of benches and tables. The playground has some pretty high slides chic my kids love. It's nice and spread out so you don't feel like you're right on top of other people enjoying the park as well. You can also get a lovely view is SCV from there. read more

Love this park. Clean, safe, and well kept. I appreciate the little kiddie section being separate from the older kids playground.

This park is lovely, especially at sunset as it overlooks some of the valley. Clean, with plenty of room around. Basketball and Tennis courts, a playground, but most notably a ROSE GARDEN!! hidden away in the back and a place for events too. read more

This is our favorite park in the Santa Clarita Valley. There's so much to do including multiple slides, rock climbing, a rope wall, monkey bars, swings, spinning seats and multiple levels to climb. There's a separate area for younger children as well. This park is located in a safe neighborhood, near a school and it's not directly on the street. You have to drive into this park to access it. There's plenty of sidewalk to ride bikes or scooter, basketball hoops, tennis courts, a baseball filed, picnic tables and a big grassy area. Our family spends hours here on weekends. The bathrooms are clean and close by, which is a huge plus. This park seems to be well maintained by the city. read more

I have been here before they have a huge playground me and my friends played frisbee on Memorial Day of 2023

This was one of the first parks that we went to when we moved to the area beginning of March. This park has a ton of parking and it's very large. There's a lot of things to do l, and what I remember is there's a really cool rock climbing wall. The park is shaded and overall has a lot of things for kids to do! read more

This park is so spacious and is well maintained. The watering schedule for the dirt walking area is a little off but there's plenty of space to walk when the sprinklers go off. read more

Park is beautiful! Really clean, and spacious, the staff I've spoken too are friendly too, except the manager Dana. She has always had an attitude like if she doesn't like interacting with people, and she's really sarcastic. The office says "Welcome" but it's hardly a welcome. She looks at you and says "what". It would be better if the park hires a new manager.. I don't like when people are given jobs that they aren't happy about. Why get a job if you are going to be rude to people? read more

Great park! A bit off the beaten path so not really as crowded as it could be. Equipment in good shape, kids seem to be well behaved for the most part unlike some other parks. read more

I really enjoy bringing my two toddlers to this park. It has 2 nice play areas for them to enjoy. The park is always clean and free of debris. It's close and convenient to my home. There are plenty of BBQ areas if you want to have a small picnic for the family. There are tennis and basketball courts available, a path if you want to walk, jog or run and also a baseball field. Very nice opened park to meet your family needs. I am definitely a fan of this park. read more

Great park for all ages. Tons of different activities. Multiple climbing options, slides, and swings. The only downfall is it's wood chips. One of my kids favorites. The baseball field and basketball ball courts are nice read more

Beautiful park! Great equipment, a clean bathroom, and a wonderful view! We will come again!

Such a beautiful park! The kids had a great time. The bathrooms were clean which is always a plus.

I have lived in Stevenson Ranch for 2 years & have only recently discovered this park. I really wish I would've visited it sooner. It's really cool. It is very big, lots of grass space, outdoor basketball courts, baseball diamond, 2 separate play areas with spongy wood chips for soft landings, climbing ladders & slides for different age groups (2-5 year olds & 5-12 year olds). Apparently there is a soccer field & tennis courts but I must've missed them. I'm not surprised, since the park is so huge. There are also several picnic tables for sitting & eating. The view is spectacular and it's very clean. It seems well managed. In addition, while we were there, we noticed a security patrol car drive through so I'm going to assume it's frequently patrolled. It's a great new find for my family so we will definitely become more regular visitors. read more

This park is AMAZING!!! There are TWO playgrounds. One for kids between the age of 2-5 and one for 5 and up. The play set actually has fun things to do and both are very age appropriate. There are slides, swings, rope walk thing, bridge, rock climbing wall etc... There is a lot of seating for parents surrounding both play sets which is so nice!! There is a lot of grass area for running around/playing ball etc... If you go in the evening you will see the most amazing sunset of your life!! Okay that may be an exaggeration but still WORTH IT!! There's a baseball field and really nice bathrooms. Oh! I almost forgot about the parking... SO MUCH PARKING SPACE!!! Anyway to sum it up. GREAT PARK. CLEAN. LOTS OF SEATING. LOTS LOF PARKING. AMAZING SUNSET! read more

This park is perfect for little ones and older children. The two playgrounds are well kept and there are also two baby swings and 4 adult swings . There's enough grassy sitting area, basketball courts, baseball field, and benches. I visited this park with my 2 year old and my 13 yr old boys and the 3 enjoyed it. The huge play are is intended for older children, if younger ones go on I do agree with adult supervision since some of the slides are very high up. Overall a great experience. read more

This is probably our favorite park in Santa Clarita! It's great for all four of my kids (ages 2-8) and offers a lot of unique features (climbing walls, slack line, big slides, lots of room to run). Great views and lots of open grass for picnics and running around, too. When we've been there, the bathrooms have been reasonably clean, too. read more

This is the most clean and amazing park, the groundskeepers are very friendly and professionals, The kids playgrounds areas are maintained very well. Also you can rent a site to have your special occasions, we had a baby birthday party and they have bbq grills very well maintained. So drop by and see for your self will post pictures later on today read more

Richard Rioux Park is one of the best parks in the SCV for a couple of reasons. It is in a location with a fantastic view of the valley. There are plenty of tables and grass. There is even a full gated area with a stage and bbqs that can be leased for all day events or party's. The playground is also a huge sell. It has been recently redone and it is really nice. The playground area is quite large and the height of the build allows for very cool tube slides that are pretty long and fast for the kids. Since we've gone to this park it is hard to go to any others. There is also a full size basketball court near the soccer and baseball fields. Overall it's just a fantastic place to take the kids in the SCV. read more

Dr Richard H Rioux Memorial Park - The soccer field. They have a nice youth soccer program at this park. This is a Wildcat pre-game warm up 2011. - Parks Near Me - Stevenson Ranch, California

This park is by far the most well maintained park in the area! We come here a few times a week and my two boys love everything is has to offer. We have come to be good friends with one of the maintain workers, Delf, during our time here! Delf is always so friendly to the kids and also looks out for their safety. If there is ever a car driving too fast he will talk to the driver and ask them to slow down, as a mom to a toddler who runs away this means soo much to me! Thank you Delf for creating a safe clean space for our little family!! read more

Great place. The park is nice and clean. They have two big playgrounds for different ages.

What a beautiful park! It is clean and well taken care of. The playground couldn't be better. My 2 year old son loved both the toddler area and older kid area. Both structures had enough to keep him entertained for much longer than we stayed. They had extra tall tube slides on a third story structure and "rocks" to climb on and through. There were plenty of swings as well. The ground is all wood chips and there is a large shade structure over both play areas. The park also had plenty if grass to run on, picnic tables, barbecues, a nice drinking fountain, restrooms, and a lovely view of the mountains. Not far from the freeway and our usual Starbucks/Jamba Juice rest stop after the Grapevine. read more

This is a great playground for kids of all ages, with lots of slides, numerous places to climb and jump and hide. Bathrooms have always been fairly clean when we've used them. My three year old requests this park regularly, even if it is a bit out of the way for us, she likes making the trip. read more

Park management are absolutely incompetent! Any program that they are trusted to manage you can rest assured they will mismanage... We have done two programs through them (soccer & T-ball), and will never again be doing a program with them again. It's a shame too; as these are our parks, and the county puts incompetent staff in positions where they ruin programs for kids. If you don't care about your job and hate kids find something else to do. McDonald's is always hiring! read more

Great park.. However i wish they had playground rubber floors instead of the wood chips.. So annoying to get them out of shoes and clothing!

I used to come to this park after taking my son to school for my morning run, on the dirt path around the field on the left side of the park. But someone has been overdoing it with the water the last few months and that path has been a muddy mess, the sprinklers are out of control. Sometimes I bring my dogs around noon and the grass is still soaking wet. It's a nice clean park for kids. Large playground, lot's of grass and space. A baseball field and tennis courts which are almost always occupied. Since Stevenson Ranch has no dog park : ( a few people bring their dogs here for exercise and sometimes they let them run off leash on the right side in the fenced in area, but there are a few cranky people who don't like that. I have observed a certain lady who comes with her two dogs and walks them one at a time, walk up to the cops (who often hang out there) and complain. And I know a lot of people actually call the cops on the dog owners who want to let their dogs run around a get some exercise. My dogs have a large yard and get lots of exercise so i don't have to do that but not every one is so lucky. If the dogs aren't hurting you why complain. But overall it's a nice park. read more

Fantastic park for fireworks on the 4th of July. And the band, Dole Humphries, was awesome!!!

The only way that this park can be successful is to remove Doug and change the leadership to someone who is more dynamic and passionate.

Love this park! I live just down the street and its a short walk/run over. There are a ton of options for activities for all ages. I run around the soccer field dirt track, play basketball, or bring our God-son up to play base ball or tennis. One of my favorite weekend past times! read more

This is the best park in all of SCV by far! The play area is huge and spacious and there's plenty of open space for just about any event. The youth sports programs are great too, mostly because of the ref they found to handle all the crazy parents and coaches who have gotten out of hand in the past few years. I believe his name is Mike and he has done an excellent job at making sure the kids are having fun and the games are the best they can be. Can't tell you the number of solutions he has handled with outrageous coaches, especially one, in the past few weeks regarding flag football. Our family and fellow teammates appreciate all that Mike has done to makes this park's programs so much better. Just wish he could take over all the preparation instead of the park director, which is another story. read more
