Happy Earth Day Yelpers!…read more I love discovering my local area and what better way to do that then go on a walk with my dog to a park I haven't been to before. I went on a drive having my eyes set on my usual park until I drove by Julliard park. I will say finding parking was a bit of a maze since I accidentally entered a neighborhood. But once I did find parking, I decided to walk through the park and was amazed of how nice and tranquil it is. Beautiful benches with artwork on them. I couldn't help but stop and look at them all. The grass was nice and green and ready for my dog and I to trek. There's also a bocce ball court for anyone that loves to play bocce ball! There was a nice little bridge I walked on that had a great view of the park as well. I walked the whole park and it was a great workout. I proceeded to walk the rest of art district and found an alley that had a mural within it and it was beautiful. I haven't walked here and taken time to come to this part of Santa Rosa, but it definitely won't be the last time I come through to check it out.

Enjoy a serene stroll alongside the creek, passing leashed dogs and their people below the trees, and then next to a little pond where birds frolic. We saw a guy there carting away his fishing gear. Are there actual fish here or is this just where people practice their fish gear flinging? Cute little non-native trees appeared on our way back to the parking lot. I'm no arborist, just curious about a randomly purple blooming tree when there are no others like it around. Very tranquil during the week during school hours and much more crowded on the weekend.

My puppies really liked the big open grassy areas of the dog park and although we don't let them off leash since their huskies, and they would run into everyone's yard to explore, They had a fun time within the dog park itself and liked running and digging around the roots of the tree. Lol there were two other dogs they could play with there at the same time as us but I really like how this park is in the middle of a neighborhood, and then even had a great playground for kids along with four or five different workout equipment pieces around the whole park so if you were running, you could clock your mileage on the ground with markers as well as doing each of the five different Workout equipment pieces. The only downfall I would say is that the water fountain is outside of the gates of the dog park so it seems like giving dogs was an afterthought while they're running around, but it was easy to access and get the dogs water after they were running around. When we come to Santa Rosa again, we will definitely check out this dog park. I will definitely get another coffee carburetor with coconut milk! Hee.

This park is great for walking your dog birdwatching having a nice, relaxing lunch, etc. The bathrooms are very rundown, but they're usually somewhat clean and always open. We had our daughter's first birthday here. It is a very nice place for a party, especially since we live so very close by but all the rules the city has now made it very difficult and they keep upping the prices for renting the area so we won't be doing that again but it was worth it at the time and a great time was had by all.

Big signs say, "NO DOGS ON THE FIELD". Dont be that guy and let your dog do a dukie on the field. Actually, don't be that guy and not even pick up after your dog at all. There are tennis courts and when I came, it seemed to look like there was a little dog park happening in the tennis court area? Not sure if that is a regular thing ? It seemed like it was. There are 2 great play structures for your kiddos to romp and play (see my attached pics) I felt very safe with my son on the equipment for the smaller structure. Not many trees or shade here at this park. There are bathrooms but are unclear if they were opened or not ? I know in summer during games they are. Not sure about the off season? There was caution tape around them.

A park with turtles? Really?!…read more I was walking at a nearby park and remembered this neighborhood park has turtles. When we drove over, we noticed friendly ducks relaxing on the grass, kids playing on the playground, and lots of turtles sticking their heads up to catch a breath. The water in the pond does look very murky so not sure if it gets cleaned. The pond has a fence around it that is about 3 1/2 feet tall so kids can't accidentally walk into the water. It's a fun park with a partially fenced area for little kids and an adjoining area for bigger kids. There is lots of grass, a gazebo, picnic tables, benches, bocce ball court, short rock climbing wall and even a neat zipline. Our friends held a birthday party here last year and the kids had a blast.

There is another smaller picnic area that is first-come, first serve right next to the playground. As long as there are no other sports events scheduled, there is plenty of parking. I kept asking in advance whether there were bathrooms and was reassured that they had them. However, they are not what I had expected. The clubhouse bathroom left so little to be desired that I would have preferred to use one of the nearby portable toilets (thank goodness they were there).
