One of our favorite parts of this area was the Quail land area.. such a cute spot and the kids love it. There are many great opportunities for kids to really take in nature and bringing snacks and water is a great idea. There are many spots to sit and relax. Bathrooms were very clean and I loved that they had a water refillable station near bathrooms. Can't wait to be back. Great spot & had access to a hike trial as well.

One way leads you to the Mark Ridley-Thomas Bridge that goes over La Cienega and connects to Kenneth Hahn or other trails that lead to other overlooks. The other direction will take you to the Baldwin Hills Stairs. There is also a sign that shows a way to walk you all the way to Playa Del Rey! Something I would love to try one of these days. It is easy to find parking. They have tons of classes, like yoga and cooking classes for children, and the day we went, they had a blood drive going on. The restrooms are clean, and everyone there had a smile on their faces, even though they were super busy setting everything up. I can't wait to go back and explore.

Wonderful staff all around!…read more I am a volunteer, and I can honestly say the children here receive the best tutoring and are able to participate in fun after-school activities like: dodgeball, dance classes, arts and crafts, movie night with the family, etc!! The students are able to interact with children their age and get help from educated college students and adults with their homework! Children there also have access to Mar Vista's computer lab--a room filled with computers, so students who do not own computer's are able to do their research or simply browse if they'd like. Each classroom is separated by age and educational levels. I visited their high school level room and I learned that the students receive help with financial aid applications for college and college applications/questions in general! that is awesome if ya ask me!
