    2 tennis courts w backboards (not shown), 4 pickleball  courts
    Gina L.

    I've come here to play tennis on weekends (morning/evening). There are 2 tennis courts, 2 backboards, and 4 pickleball courts, all pretty new. Lots of parking, decent view of Camelback, and some trees that slowly produce shade on the courts nearing sunset. There are huge lights that automatically turn on in the evenings. Getting a free court is kinda a toss up, but it's usually full after the sun sets. Nice dirt walking/biking path (Arizona Canal Trail) along the water, lots of grassy shaded area to lay a blanket, as well as two sand volleyball courts (bring your own net though). Check out Arizona Falls on the other side of the parking lot to learn about hydroelectricity where it smells kinda fishy!

    Since I was already out of the car for the Arizona Falls (btw, don't miss that on the other end of the parking lot), my group decided to walk on over here to this little park. What's not to love? Big trees, tennis courts, volleyball, a big expanse of grass for your dog (I saw a few, just don't have one myself). You can even access this park via a walk on the canal. I don't think I'd enjoy it in the heat of the summer (July or August), but in February, this was a perfect little park to enjoy the outdoors for a few minutes.

    Tennis courts!

    Beautiful grounds! I…read morewent in June in the early morning and it got hot fast. It's a small park so very doable for a quick in and out of your area short on time or want to avoid the heat. It cost about $15 for an adult ticket. No food or drinks are allowed on the grounds. I thought I could walk around with my morning coffee it had to quickly drink it before entering the park.

    Honestly, this place is absolutely gorgeous,I will fully admit that. The setup, lights, and overall…read moreaesthetic are really beautiful and definitely make for pretty pictures. But personally, I just don't see it being worth the price of $14 a person. One of the biggest things for me was that the actual area itself felt a lot smaller than I expected. On top of that, there were SO many people packed in that it was hard to even stop for a second and actually enjoy the ambiance without constantly being surrounded by crowds or trying to move around people. It kind of took away from the experience because instead of feeling immersive or relaxing, it mostly just felt overcrowded. What also made it hard for me to justify the price is that you can literally see the entire thing through the fence from the park next to it. Honestly, if I ever wanted to see it again, I'd probably just go sit at the park, save my money, and actually have more room to enjoy the view comfortably without feeling packed in shoulder to shoulder with everyone else. Overall, it's definitely very pretty and visually impressive, but for me personally, the experience didn't match the cost enough to make me want to return.

    Anthem Community Park is honestly a beautiful, well-maintained park. The ambience is great, it's…read moreclean, and there's a huge variety of equipment and sports areas. I'd give the cleanliness and overall park quality a 10/10. There's something for all ages, and it's easy to spend a whole afternoon there. The train is definitely cute and fun for kids, but it's a bit overpriced at $5 per ticket, even for a one-year-old. Unfortunately, our experience with the train staff really took away from it. The woman taking tickets was extremely rude and didn't speak to us at all -- no hello, no eye contact, no thank you, nothing. It honestly felt like she didn't want to be there or interact with families. I was trying to make it a fun moment for my child by having them hand over the ticket, but they actually got scared and hid behind me. The woman selling the tickets, on the other hand, was very kind and welcoming. The park itself can also get very crowded, and we noticed older kids sometimes take over the younger kids' play areas, which can make it hard for little ones when there's roughhousing or inappropriate language. That's not really the park's fault, but it's something to be aware of if you have small children. Overall, it's definitely worth visiting at least once because it's a beautiful space with tons to do. I personally prefer smaller neighborhood parks for a calmer experience, but Anthem Community Park is great in terms of facilities. The biggest areas for improvement would be crowd management in the play areas and better, more family-friendly staffing for the train.

    Was in the area today and had seen an insta post about this park so we visited it! It is so nice…read more They have nice ponds, a little veterans memorial, huge playground, and a cool little splash pad! We've had some bad experiences with wasp infested splash pads lately but this one was not bad at all, I think I saw one flying around. Definitely a good amount of shading here, making it nice for the summer. My son had a lot of fun and this park was super clean and not overly crowded. Would definitely recommend and will come back again,
