They have a nice covered area with picnic tables, a play area, a paved walking path that goes up to the neighboring homes, and a baseball field. They also have a restroom at the park.

There was plenty of parking and the bathroom was relatively clean. It's in a nice neighborhood with friendly people, most walking their dogs. Across the street is a green ravine that has a paved walkway that will take you to the start of the trail. I just loved all the greenery and blue skies. It was a gorgeous view!

This location offers a full room dedicated just for strength. I love all the different kinds of classes they offer including: sculpt, strength, core, and dedicated classes for arms and butts! Spin can be really challenging and I know when I first started it was tough for me, it took me about 2 months to understand you have to go to the beat to get the most out of your workout. My recommendation: If this is your first time taking spin, try taking more than one class, try their class packs or intro month, so you can really understand the classes. I could not be happier with my fitness journey, I have more energy in my everyday life and I'm now excited to work out and go to spin classes. Plus I've made several friends since joining Cyclelife and the instructors are so incredibly kind and supportive. I could not recommend Cyclelife more!

As I was walking to Target I saw a sign that said $12 drop ins for first time riders and figured I would give it a shot. The class was energetic and a great workout. Everyone was super friendly and helped a ton. The class was an hour long and just what I needed! I received a check in the next day with an offer for a class package and jumped at the chance to be able to attend a few more classes while I'm in town. The next class I attended was a spin and fitness class where it was half spin (about 25 mins) and half strength (think 8 stations with varying exercises or weights with two one minute work periods at each station). The strength portion was easily customized for everyone. They made me feel super welcomed in the group and I would definitely recommend this place to others!

Concern About Staff Harassment…read more I attended a community event recently and had an uncomfortable experience with one of your staff photographers. Despite clearly blocking him and expressing that I did not want my photo taken, he continued taking pictures of me and singling me out to take my picture and record me. When I reported this to venue staff, the response was essentially that he was "just doing his job," which made me feel that my boundaries and safety were not being taken seriously. The staff did not address his behavior and requested a private meeting with me to question me. I'm sharing this so the venue is aware that attendees' comfort and consent must come first. Staff should be trained and reminded to respect boundaries and ensure everyone feels safe. I hope the venue will address this behavior and prevent similar incidents in the future.

Adj: Hilltop Handy Family Park with a Happy View…read more This is one of Folsom's hidden gems in our books. We visit Folsom to meet friends and to explore and do nature-type activities as well as shopping and discovered Handy Family Park on one occasion. Handy Family Park is apparently one of Folsom's most elevated parks. Set on a hilltop, it's a lovely neighborhood park. Though it's smaller compared to regional parks, it's actually pretty big, it's just that it's atop a hill so not all of the space is usable for sports courts, but all of it is scenic and most of it is recreational space. You can reach this park by taking the E. Bidwell exit on Hwy 50, and then it's a really quick drive past the Costco and the In-N-Out, then take Scholar Way, and it's at 1560 Cavitt Dr. You can't walk directly into the park from the parking lot b/c you have to go UP to the top of the "hill", so you can either take the stairs or there's a longer path/ramp for ADA accessibility. Thankfully, the bathrooms are at the start of the park/bottom of the stairs so those who need to use the restrooms can get to them without going into the park. Once you climb up, you're rewarded with an amazing overlook of several neighborhoods and the rolling hills of Folsom. I've only been here in the daytime, but I imagine that it'd be extra beautiful after dark when the lights shine and sparkle all over for a night view. The park offers a lighted baseball field, a huge soccer field, a basketball court, open fields for free recreation, and multiple walking pathways that wind around for a nice stroll throughout the park while you get a nice panoramic view no matter which way you look. In addition to the amenities above, there's a barbecue with a couple of picnic tables under a covered pavilion at the edge of the hilltop so it's really a nice place for a picnic or little party. There's also a couple of kids play structure (one for bigger kids and one for the littles). My kids enjoyed playing here and running around when they were younger, but we still like coming here whenever we're in Folsom b/c Handy Family Park got such a scenic view and it's usually not too crowded. It is always a great place to bring our own picnic and hang out as a family in "nature" not too far from all the conveniences of civilization.

I stopped by this park with my dog while in the Folsom area. I was looking for a dog park that I…read morecould let him run around in without getting too dirty, especially since it's been raining recently. This park is large and looks brand new, the playground supplies are modern and would appeal to many different age groups. There are also covered picnic tables, walking paths, and a small and large fenced in dog park. We parked in the large parking lot and headed straight to the large dog area of the dog park. It has a double gate which helps make sure none of the dogs get loose, and there are benches around the circumference including some covered for some shade. There is also a water station and dog bags and a garbage for waste. The dog park has wood chips all over it and is a bit hilly. The wood chip covering makes it harder to walk around, but does keep things from getting muddy even when it's raining. You'll want to watch your dogs closely because their poop could blend in with the brown chips and you'll want to find and pick it up so no one accidentally steps in it. My dog seemed to tire out faster than usual while we played catch, I think it was harder for him to run on the wood chips as well and I was a bit worried about him getting a splinter or a weird piece that might hurt his paws. Overall this was a very nice park that is well kept and next time I visit I'd like to explore the walking paths in the area.

The park opened up about a week ago. It's a busy place, lots of folks enjoying the park. It's the…read moreonly park south of Highway 50 in Folsom... so heck yes this place is packed as expected. The park has a parking lot, covered pavilion with picnic benches and BBQs, play area with two zip lines, dog park, one basketball court, two tennis courts, two volleyball courts, and a little league baseball field. But I noticed they don't have a lot of trees planted and the ones they do have are a puny. It will take several years for them to mature to provide shade. An important thing to note is that the basketball, tennis, and volleyball courts are by reservation. Reservations can be made online but cost money $$. 2 hours of volleyball cost $70 and 2 hours of tennis is $50 which is ridiculous! Sure folks can use the courts, without paying, until they're bumped out by someone showing up with a reservation. So this may cause some controversy. Plus good luck to you in using the courts. They've been busy nonstop since the park opened and there is no time limit for folks without reservations. They can bunker down all day long. There are no time limit restrictions. The volleyball courts are on astroturf. The baseball field has a caged bullpen right next to the dugouts. The dog park is fenced in with wood chips as ground cover, and separated by small and large dogs. There are ADA complaint paved walking paths around and within the park's perimeter. Along the path are doggie poop bags and recycle & trash cans making it very convenient to not be a litterbug.

Steeplechase Mini Park is a very small toddler's park in a residential area in Folsom…read more Note to Yelp moderators that this is NOT a review for Levy Park, which is a different, separate, larger children's park around the corner. You can find my review for Levy Park here: https://bit.ly/3wFTVhJ There are a lot of parks in Folsom that are called mini parks, but Steeplechase is the definition of a mini park. It's on a very small lot with nothing but a very small playground, a bench, a water fountain, a trash can, and a dog waste center. The play structure only has one ladder, one slide, one small rock wall, a rocking horse, a spinning chair, and two toddler swings. The ground is covered in wood chips. A small walking path leads through the park, from Arbuckle Avenue, to an un-named bike trail segment behind the park, which leads down to Sibley. I originally stumbled upon this park while exploring said bike trail. I would probably not bring a school-age child to this park, since there's not very much to do. The main advantage I can see to this park would be for neighborhood residents who want a place for their toddlers to play in privacy.
