Wow, this was my first time visiting this park, and I am genuinely impressed! My family and I came…read morehere on a Sunday evening to wind down and end our day, and it is by far one of the best and cleanest parks in the Elk Grove area. We even came on a windy day, and it was still a wonderful place to be. It is so spacious that it's the perfect spot to fly kites. A few of us were flying kites together, and it was such a relaxing, heartwarming experience. It's incredibly family and dog friendly, super roomy, and has so much going on. Because it's so clean and well maintained, this might just become the park I bring my kids to most often, and it is definitely a top choice for hosting future family events! It is perfect for a workout, sports activities, or just letting the kids play. I love the layout, especially how they designed the two separate grass areas where one sits at a lower elevation, while the other is level with the rest of the park. But honestly, what really blew me away was the restroom. I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but I'm serious! So many park restrooms are cold, dark, dirty, and lacking privacy. This one felt downright luxurious. It is completely temperature controlled, which was especially nice since it was breezy outside! It was warm, well lit, exceptionally clean, and had absolutely no odor. It even sounded like it had a great ventilation system running. The only minor downside was the lack of toilet seat covers, but that's an easy fix. The entire park feels pretty new with a beautiful, modern design, conveniently located right behind the Sky River Casino. Highly recommend checking it out! Rate: 10/10

I've been coming to Town Square Park since we first moved to the area, and the recent revamp…read morehonestly took an already great neighborhood park and made it super fantastic. One of the best upgrades is how much bigger and more thoughtfully laid out it feels now. There are clearly different sections for little kids and older kids, with tons of varied playground structures. Because everything is spread out, it never feels overcrowded--even on busy afternoons. The shaded awning area is also a really smart addition. I've seen families use it for birthday parties, and it's the kind of detail that makes the park feel community-friendly rather than just a playground. They also redid the basketball court, which looks great, and added a permanent cornhole setup nearby. It's nice seeing spaces where both kids and adults can hang out and actually play something together instead of just sitting on benches. But my personal favorite spot is right near the entrance by Town Hall--the rose garden. When the roses are blooming, it's absolutely stunning, and the smell when you walk through is incredible. Tucked right there is a little Little Free Library nook, which has turned into one of my favorite small rituals. My daughter and I will stop there before or after the playground to drop off a book or see what new reads we can find. It's such a sweet little moment that makes the park feel even more like a neighborhood gathering place. Helpful tip: If you visit in the late afternoon, the shade from the awning and nearby trees makes it much more comfortable, and that's also when the rose garden smells the strongest. Between the upgraded playground, the sports areas, and the beautiful rose garden entrance, this park somehow manages to feel both lively and peaceful at the same time--and that's a rare combo.

Open play area for multi-purpose use, two separate play areas, one for younger children as well as one for older ones. Two shaded structures with picnic tables in both. One half basketball court., two tennis courts, and a walking path lined with beautiful flowers. A well maintained park that offers so much amenities deserves the highest reward !

A few people came by to play pickle ball and was nice enough to share the court. They have a couple benches to watch and it was nice cuz it was shaded. They do have a water fountain to drink out of. The down side is that bathroom is very far from the tennis court. It was confusing that the address of the park GPS drove me to a cul de sac in the neighborhood. I came back after going to a near by store and was able to park on the main street.

There's free street parking and the restrooms are actually well maintained (soap + toilet paper usually stocked, which is always a plus). The only concern is the restroom is located near the 2-5 yo playground only, so if you are at basketball or tennis courts, it takes quite a walk to reach restroom. For sports, you've got tennis, baseball, basketball, and pickleball. The pickleball setup has 4 outdoor acrylic courts with permanent lines. You do need to bring your own net. The courts are nicely shaded by trees, so it's not too brutal in the summer heat. Playground-wise, there are two sections for different ages (2-5 yo and 5-12 yo), with swings and climbing structures: good setup if you've got kids of different ages. One nice bonus is the bike trail access that connects over to Betschart Park, so you can extend a walk or ride easily. Also worth mentioning: the park is used for free adaptive/inclusive recreation programs through Cosumnes CSD. They run classes and activities for kids and adults with disabilities (Autism) (fitness, yoga, swim, pickleball, tennis, Zumba, camps, etc.). There's also RAD Fun Fridays with games, movies, crafts, and more for all abilities. They also have pickleball coaches. The pickleball is every 2 weeks at 10:30am PST. One of the pickleball coach is also the owner of local Sacramento pickleball paddles manufacturer: Jolle pickleball. All pickleball paddle is from fiber carbon so it is very light. He has some pre-owned paddles for half the price. Call him soon before they are gone!! Overall: clean, shaded, pretty active community park, and especially good if you play pickleball or want a family-friendly spot that's not too chaotic.

The only issues that I found were : location of the park was next to a busy intersection ! And parking was limited to street parking only. But over-all this is a lovely community park that offers it neighbors a safe and clean place for the kids to play, and for active adults with their miles of hiking trial. I will definitely be back in warmer weather to take advantage of their walking trials. A park that offers amenities for children and adults deserves a solid "3 Stars !"
