People don't do much reviews on parks. Why? I don't know. I have been to this park 4 times in the…read morepast. I truly like this park very much. It's close to home and offers a lot of activities to do. It has children's playground equipment, 2 basketball courts, 4 BIG, tennis courts, a dirt track, clean bathrooms, picnic area, nice spacious landscape and the most important, it's kept nice and clean. This park is one of my favorite parks in Studio City. They have recreation areas and can let you sign up for sports/classes that interests you. Recently, I had taken few classes with couple of their teachers/coaches and they are WONDERFUL! Earlier this morning I went to play tennis with one of my friends. Tennis is one of my favorite sports to watch and to play. We don't keep score. We just like to play and have fun. You can walk, jug, people walk their dogs, kids, they have picnic areas and do a lot of kids birthday parties.. or you can just simply sit in silence and enjoy nature, the sunlight and have a good, peaceful time. Private lot parking, or street nearby parking. They are closed on Sundays. Kind of weird, but it's their rules, not mine. That's when people usually spend time with their families. I am not going to dock a star for that since it meets all the other amenities & requirements.

The space was spacious for the event and parking plentiful right there between the grass patches that we were using.

The park was already having some kind of event near the kids playground. There was also a kid soccer game going on too. I saw people were playing basketball at the court, tennis in the tennis court and other people were just walking their dog.

Plentiful shade around the fields from trees that can help provide shade if needed. No sights of any homeless or loitering that some parks struggle with. There's a large building with multiple bathroom stalls. Soccer fields are artificial turf so there's ground rules on what's allowed inside. Chairs I believe aren't allowed. Had lots of fun here!!! I made sure my dog did its business on the real grass outside of the fenced soccer fields. Spotted a gopher in a hole too! Overall a nice place to go to for soccer, a safe walk, and to rest or hangout. Keep in mind the limited seating so I've noticed people chilling inside their cars. * soccer teams play and fill the fields on weekends * summer camps occur here as well * good community place

I have no desire to go to a Little League field or any baseball field or any recreational field or children are playing ball. I stumbled across this field by accident as I was walking my dog from Libert Park on Lévy Avenue in Encino. Turns out the two parks are connected by a small gate that you can just walk through. Pets are not allowed on the sports field so I had to hold my dog Luis as I watched the cutest little little Lakers swing the bat and really hit that ball. I'm not sure about the rest of the facilities because I didn't explore the entire park, but it seemed like a really nice sports field if you're into that sort of thing

It astounds me how nearly…read more100% of playgrounds seem NOT to have been designed by actual parents, with equipment in the beating sun with no shade, full of holes for kids to fall off/out of lol. This playground has shades up and a good amount of trees, so there's actual shade in the play area and spots where parents can sit. It's tucked away in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of parking, too. My 3 y/o is a bit overly cautious at the playground, but he was able to play on both structures without issue. I didn't see bathrooms nearby? They could have been attached to, or inside, the community center that's right next to the playground, but not sure because we could never find them.

Great sunny spots, shady tree areas and an awesome lake with a walk path. The wildlife here is abundance, especially the squirrels, geese, ducks, fellow waterfowls and various bird types. Super pup friendly. Two playgrounds, one off Kittridge, with park benches and tables throughout. The playground next to the parking lot on Victory is really modern and also neighbor to their rec center as well as restrooms. Definitely appreciating Reseda Park a lot more after a nice sunny picnic day out. People are friendly, kids are kids curious, carefree, adorable and reckless at times. Don't eat that "Jessica" lol Very spacious and surprisingly more on the mellow side on a holiday weekend. Some vendors do pop up from time to time usually with snacks and eats. Near a few restaurants, shops and grocers as well.

I have driven past Reseda park many times in the mornings in the last 6 months and the park had…read moreseemed clean at that time of day, however today I was heading home from Tarzana with my dog and I wanted to stop by with her. I parked on the street but noticed that there were several tents set up, lots of strewn trash, shopping carts, and some disheveled people walking around. The park has so much space that would have been perfect for me to throw the ball for my dog and do some training, but I just did not feel comfortable to get out of my car with this type of situation. I really really feel that this location has so much potential because it's spacious, there's so many geese walking around, beautiful trees. It is so sad to see it so dirty. I periodically come past this park so next time in the area I'll check it out and see if it's the same, because as mentioned above, in the past in the mornings when I drove by it looked much cleaner and more welcoming than it looks today.

When you arrive parking is plentiful along the borders of the park or in the parking spaces. I love…read morecoming to this park for dog training and for spending time with my dog allowing her to sniff and run on an extended leash (either 30 to 45 feet leash). The great thing about this park is that there is a sidewalk to walk on to walk the perimeter of the lake, or there are many areas of large green fields that surround the park. I have seen other dogs off leash, and normally this gives me great hesitation, but in a large park like this, you can be far enough distance away from everyone else and their dogs to avoid them. Now that it's spring, everything is blossoming and blooming, but be careful, when I was here the grass had not yet been mown, and there are so many foxtails growing right now. So many got caught in my shoes and thankfully I checked my dog's body completely and her feet and none had stuck to her. When things are mown it's great but also beware of the ants. When I was on the side of the park that has the football field sized grass area, I was watching my dog sniff and play and suddenly I felt something biting me. I looked down and dozens of red ants were climbing me from the dirt. I must have mistakenly stood on an ant mound. Thirdly, just also keep aware of coyotes, I have seen a coyote several times at Lake Balboa and they do not seem fearful whatsoever and they are just walking around casually in the middle of the day. This park is a true gem because of how beautiful and serene it makes life feel. There are people fishing in the lake, walkers, runners, people relaxing on benches reading, friends playing cards, birthday parties or other events, people bicycling or skateboarding. I love this park.

It's one of those places that feels like a mini escape without having to leave LA. The lake is…read morebeautiful, especially in the mornings and around sunset, and the walking path around it is perfect for a chill stroll, jog, or bike ride. There's always a good mix of people here families, couples, dog walkers, and folks just trying to get some fresh air. The park is spacious, well-maintained, and surprisingly peaceful considering how central it is. Plenty of picnic tables, grassy areas to relax, and spots to just sit and people-watch. The ducks and birds add to the whole vibe. Parking is usually easy, which is a huge plus, and the restrooms are decent for a public park. On weekends it can get busy, but it never feels overwhelming because there's so much space. Whether you're looking for a quick walk, a picnic date, or a calm place to clear your head, Lake Balboa is a solid go-to. Definitely one of my favorite outdoor spots in the Valley.
