Everytime I've come, it's been insanely crowded and kinda hectic. There was also an incident when a group of middle school boys on e-bikes were riding on the sidewalk and angrily yelled at us to get out of their way, when they should've been the ones to move...and they had the audacity to get upset! read more

Been here a couple of times. I'm not sure if they have a restroom as I didn't see one nor did I need it so I didn't exactly look. I did take a quick walk around, and noticed parking all around but was lucky enough to park right by the coffee cart. There is a man with a coffee/drink cart as well a fruit man selling yummy assorted precut fruits.. playground is nice, both for littles and older kids. Plenty of seating all around, I would say this is definitely a cooler park for the older kids. Both my 2yo and 10yo have fun here! read more

Holmby Park - Playground - Parks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Although there are many signs informing dog owners to keep their dogs on leashes and signs explicitly stating "No Soccer" , the entire golf course has turned into an illegal soccer camp. Today there were 6 separate soccer lesson camps set up occupying nearly the entire golf course, dogs running off leash and pic-knickers and soccer players destroying the golf greens which are very expensive to maintain. Over the last 3-4 weeks the gold course has literally been taken over. Covid is over. Private soccer lessons should be held on private property. I am not a grinch, but this isn't right. Anarchy and chaos. The parks crew have done so much over the past year to restore rhe courae and it is being destroyed. Absolutely shameful! read more

Beautiful park with a large playground for kids, as well as walking paths and an area for dogs to play. Ideal for parties and large get-togethers, there is plenty of room and shady spots. They also have barbecues available and bathrooms on site that are cleaned and maintained daily. Very clean with plenty of parking, highly recommended! read more

We went during the week and there's parking on the street. This was the coolest park that looked like almost like an outdoor camp. It is very LA. lol. There is plenty of shade and benches for the adults. read more

Small park with plenty of lush green grass and trees to enjoy a walk. The trees give a great shade. It is usually busy with people walking around, walking their dogs on leash and some exercising with their personal trainers. It is a small park with amenities such as: - Kids playground - Picnic Tables - Small bbq grills. It does have a clean unisex restroom, spacious and stocked. It accommodates people in wheelchairs. Free lawn bowling lessons are offered. Benches around to sit and relax. 2 hours parking is allowed. *Comstocke Ave - parking on both sides of the street is allowed. The rest only one side is allowed. read more

I love it, my husband loves it, our daughter wants to go always and our dogs can't get enough of it! The kids playground is pretty new and the trail around it is easy to walk. There is always a fruit guy when you need a snack! Overall a hidden gem that we can all enjoy read more

Holmby Park - Kids playground - Parks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is a really nice park. It's kinda hidden & quiet. I love the fact that there are a few food trucks in the vicinity. I like to come out here for nice scenery during my lunch breaks. read more

The park is not the problem, it's a nice city park. It's the lose dogs everywhere!!!!! That is an issue! And will cause incidents that can be avoided. read more

I grew up in Los Angeles , and I do not believe I have ever been to Holmby Park. My first time here, but my girl had been here with her UCLA friends. They finally decided to drag me over here for a picnic lol. Had fine getting my workout on and horseplaying. Nice family environment and peaceful here. No torouble makers or homeless lurking around here. Tight security here too. Lovely park, I will be back here again. read more

LOVE this park, parking can sometimes be a pain during the weekends though so plan accordingly. Also bring mosquito spray, for some reason this park has a lot of those little critters flying around. read more

Kids are 5 and 3, they loved it. Great climbing. Park is clean and really busy on weekends.

Best park ever! Nice and clean! We Loved it, we had a god family day My grandchildren had a good time and we are planning to go back a list ones a month read more

Such a great, fun park. One of the best parks in west LA. Large slides. Fun ways to get to those slides. A simple way and a more challenging way. They have a fun swings. Fun stuff for little ones and the bigger kiddos. I have an autistic 7 year old who loves this park! He laughs and smiles so much when we come here. read more

I really like the revamped play area for the children. There is an array of slides and areas to climb on. The swings are awesome because there are tandem ones you can use with your child. The ground is rubber to catch their falls as opposed to sand or wood chips that other parks have. The only thing thats not so easy is finding parking read more

Definitely one of the best parks on the west side. There is a park that is a 2 minute walk from our place, but we drive 15 minutes to this one instead. For better or for worse, Beverly Hills cracks down on anti-camping laws which means there are no homeless people in this park, unlike most of the other parks in west LA. This is a fairly sizeable park with a playground and ample picnic space. Lots of trees. The path around the park makes a nice running loop, and there is free parking all around. There is a golf course in the middle but honestly I rarely see people actually playing golf (though they do water the middle of the park making it less hospitable for picnic blankets and occasionally make you move to the sides of the park if they are planning to have people play golf). Lots of dogs and kids, people doing yoga, the occasional big birthday party. But even with all the people there is still ample room to lay out a blanket with food. There are food trucks nearby too. read more

Came here to reflect one day, I was passing by from a job interview that didn't go the way I wanted to. The park is big and spacious, very clean park: I mean i wouldn't imagine anything less since it's in an upscale type of neighborhood. It's pretty tucked away I just happened to be driving through and saw it to stop by. Parks and recreation for the win right lol read more

Cute park for doggy play! We were petsitting and wanted to see what parks were nearby and Yelp steered us right! More of a smaller friendly dog park with exceptions. We brought a picnic and our temp dog met lots of new friends. While several dogs were off leash, let me clarify that this is not a fenced in type of park, so if your furry one is a runner, keep them on leash. The surrounding area is residential so the street noise is pretty minimal. read more

Update: a beautiful little park that is still annoying as hell. -Cigars still being puffed all over the place. -50 Thousand unmasked birthday parties, weddings/wedding receptions and gender reveals taking place all at once -Annoying luxury cars still zipping through the park like they're at Indy 500. SLOW DOWN!!!!! HELL! -Entitled people still parking their cars in the middle of the street...no hazard lights; no regard for others. -Still swamped with people taking up all the parking spaces to bring their babies to baby yoga, baby outdoor concerts, baby meditation sessions, baby Woodstock, you name it. Ladies and gentlemen...the kids are only 6 months old. Isn't this a bit excessive, lol? Oh, brother... But I still love how the trees canopy over the streets. I love the super oxygen rich air you get from being near all the trees. I love the moments of silence you get occasionally when you're not disturbed by the unmasked jogger running passed you without a mask during the pandemic. Still not perfect, but it's only a mile away. It'll do. read more

Just about everything you'd want in a city park and pretty much about nothing that you wouldn't. Diverse neighbors and convenient for families with children as it has one of the finest public schools, Warner Elementary, a block away. Friendly dogs and respectful walkers of dogs (AND pedestrians). Always very low-keyed read more

This park is a Los Angeles gem. Tucked in between mansions and about a 15-minute walk to the former Playboy Mansion. It's one of the most beautiful public parks in Los Angeles. The lawn is green and there's a walking/jogging track inside the park and along the perimeter. The kids playground is probably the best in LA. The crowd is your Hombly Hills/Westwood crowd. The public bathroom is decent with seat covers and toilet paper. The weekend would probably be a different story and more hectic. There's 2-hour free street parking on weekdays. read more

Holmby Park - Parks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Beautiful Park one of the nicest I've been to. Very well maintained (I can say that cause I am a park maintenance worker myself). The energy here is super positively charged. That's what brought me here. I had some business near by so I figure it was time to visit this place. I'd come here for quiet meditations or to ask guidance. I sat at a bench after a couple of laps around the park. I felt glued to the seat. I didn't want to leave. Just remember there are no parking lots and I believe the signs state 2 hour parking only. Also the center of the park is a golf course. So watch where you walk. read more

Holmby Park is beautiful. The downside is it has become a dog park. Owners let their dogs run solo without leashes and without supervision. Expect to be jumped on and see dog attacks. Not sure why no one mentions this in their reviews. read more

This park excludes children with disabilities. The fact that it is not built in accordance with universal design standards makes the renovation is a gross misuse of public funds. So disappointed in the Parks & Recreations department. This needs to be fixed. read more

What a beautiful park. Quiet and shady with nice walking paths and beautifully renovated play equipment. The playground equipment was great because while it was fantastic for young ones, the towers, slides and bridges were also attractive to older kids. There is ample street parking all around the park. The proximity to the west side was perfect! read more

Cute! Not very big but has a walking path around that shows the distance of one loop - would be a fun spot to walk with a friend and keep track of your pace! Good shaded seating and nice play area for kids! Lots of 2 hour street parking nearby. read more

Very fun park with lots of parking. It's clean and there's a great playground for kids of all ages.

Holmby Park*, created at the onset of the Roaring Twenties, dedicated by the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1954**, home to international lawn bowling since 1927, site of the Armand Hammer Golf Course, is nestled between the Los Angeles Country Club and the Playboy Mansion***. Yes, as in yesteryear, you may see celebs, and tour buses, and neighbors walking their dogs (on leash), nannies watching their charges interact on a most kid-friendly playground and me. Ever since BLVD 16 quit serving lunch, I've been brown baggin' it to spend some dine time here; obviously not the same energy but not bad either as there is great benefit to communing with nature, absorbing natural light, walking two laps on the flat terrain path at a leisurely pace, refreshed for my next appointment. Cheers to fine open spaces, especially those with such a rich history! 2-hour parking 8:00 AM- 6:00 PM during the week, restrooms close at 5:00 PM * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holmby_Park ** http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rancho_San_Jose_de_Buenos_Ayres *** http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Letts read more

My dog and I are in love with our neighborhood park. I have never met such nice kind and welcoming dog owners in any part of all of LA County. The park is beautiful naturally surrounded by mansions in Bel Air And the hombly hills area. If you're Golfer there is a beautiful golf turf course located within the middle of the park. There is also a very fancy-schmancy lawn bowling which takes place on Sundays and everyone dresses in white and it sure is interesting to watch. Five stars baby from me and my main girl :) read more

Beautiful park. There are 2 birthday areas with picnic tables that are great for birthday parties. Both areas are well shaded and 2 play structures are right next to it. Lots of grassy area with spots of shade provided by huge trees. The rest rooms are a bit of a walk. Ample Street parking available. The park is surrounded by streets so you have to be careful of your toddler running into traffic. read more

What a calm and beautiful park! There are people walking, people doing yoga or being trained by a personal train, people walking their dogs, and some just buying food from the food trucks and spend their lunch time in a a serene outdoor space. Dogs can not be off leash and no bike or skate boards are allowed. There is a large area for lawn bowling and you see a group of senior citizens playing, ( so cute). 2 Laps around the park equals 1 1/4 of a mile so it is not a huge park but I love it. I have been taking my dog for walks to this park for a few years now. read more

Such a great park. On just one morning, I saw a yoga class, a boxing class, a keyboard performance and at least two birthday party celebrations, and there was still plenty of room for any other visitors. They have beautiful landscaping with bridges and plenty of benches. But it's not so big that you'll miss friends you may be trying to find. Can't wait to go back! read more

Beautiful park situated in the city. I often take stroll around or find a place in the grass to read a book. People here often are with families or doing some workouts on the grassy lawn. Very dog friendly park. Often don't see anyone without a little pooch. Parking is around the park. Can be hard to find as it's also a residential area. read more

Holmby Park - Beautiful day - Parks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is a great park with lots of shade and nice walking paths. The wonderful table and BBQ areas are perfect for kids parties. It's next to the playground so it's perfect for keeping the little ones entertained. There was a food truck on the edge of the park this weekend. It may be a regular thing. The bathrooms are pretty nasty for such a nice park. Street parking is available, but has a 2 hour limit M-F. And yes, dogs on leash are welcome. read more

This is a well kept and clean park. Enclosed children area with lots of grass to sit and relax. Walking path goes around the park.

As far as parks go, this one is a real gem. Situated in a very nice neighborhood, it has basically everything you need. The grounds are impeccable and are well cared for. You get a mixed bag of kids, dogs, older folks power walking the path, and young professionals pushing strollers. As someone constantly in search of their happy places, this is one of them. I can let my mind wander as I walk my dog around the path, or dig into a book while laying out. Plus I've encountered very friendly people here. Plenty of benches, people watching, and nice bathroom too. All the while surrounded by million dollar homes. Holmby Park screams LA, but more than makes up for any hint of elitism by being one of LA's best kept secrets. read more

It is unacceptable that the park took out accessible equipment in this renovation considering the lack of accessible equipment prior to. The large plastic swing that fit big kids was a popular spot that I take kids with disabilities and was removed without an equitable replacement. It is 2023 and the parks and rec couldn't design a park that is accessible to ALL children? Especially in such a wealthy neighborhood? I am disgusted and sad that our kids can no longer enjoy the SINGLE PIECE of accessible equipment at Holmby park anymore. read more

I walked around this park with Nick Nolte yesterday. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=LKAW5RGYxE72NLKdk_14tQ OK, not exactly *with* him, haha.....Mr. Nolte was there & I was there, and we passed each other twice on the walking path that circles the park. He's not the hottie he once was, but hell, neither am I. My new rule is to not bug celebs by asking for photos, so I just greeted him and he responded with a few words and a smile. With or without celeb presence, I love Holmby Park. It's meticulously maintained, as would be expected of a public area that's set in one of the most expensive residential 'hoods in LA. The Spelling mansion, which overlooks the little park, (seen in the distance in this photo) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=44S3Brsuxnv3ivyf3DsvyA was listed for sale in March for 150 million. That makes it the priciest house in the country, by far. At 56,500 sq. ft. (that's just the interior space, remarkably), it's probably one of the largest residences, too. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=8qbgRtPYPOOwetAqvFpWbA Candy Spelling is moving into a 47 million-dollar penthouse nearby, in Century City. Hef lives right up the road from Holmby Park, in the Playboy Mansion on Charing Cross. The star homes tour bus drove by while I was walking past Spelling's place, and I waved, as they all tried to figure out who I was, under my cap & dark glasses. (Momma Yelp, bitches!) This is a neighborhood of gorgeous properties on big lots, conveniently located between Westwood and prime Beverly Hills. I could give up beach living for Holmby Hills, I like it that much. Of course there are no parking meters on the quiet streets around little Holmby Park.....that would be gauche, haha. Unfortunately, there also is no water in the stream that runs though the park. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=nOVsFmRddfl273UBQHh1DA There's a little waterfall, too....or there would be were it not dry as a bone. I have a feeling kiddies ignored the signs and enjoyed splashing in the the water feature perhaps too much...... And what upscale park would be without an 18-hole golf course...... http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=M3qGEvTXe7gmGoAc3F0J-w How the hell they condensed 18 holes into that small area is beyond me, but that's what the signs said. As if the golf course does not provide sufficient chicness, there are two lawn bowling greens, with a vintage clubhouse. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=l0FSw1t01SKa3qeaHNklnQ The Holmby Park Lawn Bowling Club was established in 1927.....*cough*old money *cough*...... There are two kiddie playgrounds, too, all nicely fenced in, on beds of soft sand. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=7DVk6Jetw4faN4Ph_pvGOA On weekends, the picnic grove, where there are barbecues, becomes kids' birthday party central. Leftover balloons adorned the fences, there are so many parties held in this lovely setting. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=5psAvC3MVuGI1wp6JYOJhg But my fave part of this park is the walking path that circles the space. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=hBXtVuuKMKFQDH3MG95Btg It winds around and through groves of ornamental trees http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=8YILDd2SyGALb9lKNCZA7g and beds of colorful flowers. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=VwKZ43ysUZbwyTAH2voAKQ If you're in the area, stop and enjoy this elegant, tree-filled piece of paradise. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/XwxMA7BTP7zxcqKwVEvfeQ?select=Y2xJuKGMerZngbjBjcSP6w Perhaps take a stroll with Nick and me....... ; ) read more
