Spacious park with lots of trees and open grassy areas. It's a great spot for walking, running, or doing any form of cardio. Plenty of parking available, but can get packed depending on the time of day. The park is clean and well maintained. read more

There's a great bike path that starts here. Lots of space for walking, barbecues, there's a playground for older kids and a gated playground for younger kids. The only thing about this place is parking is quite limited for such a large park. I definitely recommend bringing your bike here. The bike trail leads to Los Gatos Creek Trail, which is nice. Nice place to get some sun. Don't forget about the basketball courts. And also, you can easily walk to downtown Campbell from here. read more

I have been going to this park ever since I was little and it seems to be a very good neighborhood spot for people of all ages. It seems to be a huge hit for seniors and families that are wishing to have a place to hangout. Bring the dogs because they really love the grass. They used to have a tennis court for use but that since has been gone. The local little leagues are often playing here and I find it really cool how I get to see some kids try to steal bases while taking a break. For kids there are playgrounds on both sides of the park. The Campbell Ave side has a water play area which is a blessing over the summer. If you want some basic exercise do come here. Drawback: Please to not park on the Budd side because it fills up really fast. Mostly parents who are taking kids out to play for the weekend read more

This is a very nice, well maintained park in Campbell. Very green and lots of shade. There are lots of tables for people who want to do picnics or party. There's also volleyball nets for people who want to play. This is next to Campbell school of Innovation so there's lots of play grounds and also basketball court. There's enough parking spaces tho can be limited, but there's also street parking. It's a pet friendly park and I enjoyed it a lot. read more

John D. Morgan Park is a hidden gem for both humans and their furry companions! Nestled in tranquility, this park boasts a play area on the North side that's perfect for birthday parties, while the paved walkway accommodates pedestrians and cyclists alike. Under the majestic Redwoods, shade abounds, offering respite on sunny days. With geese adding to the charm and plenty of friendly dogs and owners, it's a haven for canine companionship. parking spaces are enough if you go straight and pass the entrance, there will be another parking lot near when you do uturn! read more

Park is fine, parking is limited on Saturday mornings. Often you can see cars parked in red zones and in blue zones while not exhibiting blue placards. I wish Campbell police would come and fine them. There is no parking available on the streets nearby, which makes it practically impossible for people with disabilities to access the park and its accessible playground. read more

Nice park. The play structures are unfortunately not shaded. The big kid play structure and the tot structure are not in separate enclosures. I personally don't prefer this at this point in time because my daughter is 16 months and I'm afraid of bigger kids bowling her over when the park gets more crowded. The ground is wood chips where the play structures are, instead of the superior (in my opinion) rubbery ground. My baby girl is still wont to grab fistfuls of wood chips and throw them in the air, so I'm still worried about her getting splinters on the playground. There are some shaded picnic tables and benches. And there are public restrooms. The park has its own parking lot with a decent number of spots. I would definitely come back more frequently once my girl is a bit older. read more

A 32-acre park with reservable picnic tables, horseshoe pits, sand volleyball, tennis, and a playground. Normally well-maintained, but be warned: as of mid August 2024, the water play area has drain issues and created a pool that is at best a hangout for mosquitos, at worst, a drowning hazard. Casey Anthony gives it five stars. read more

Such a beautiful park! Went here recently to meet with friends and it was absolutely gorgeous! I didn't get a chance to search as much as I wanted, but it wa very lush. Parking was a bit limited, but people were coming and going so it was fine. read more

This is another fantastic park in the South Bay, although my favorite aspect is the wide, open grassy lawns they have, rather than the playground. To be fair, the playground is good. And the overall park has tons of trees and nice landscaping. The bathroom situation is unfortunate, with gross port-a-potties being used. What I really like, though, are the expansive grass areas. They are wide open without any trees or powerlines, and perfect for sports or flying kites or playing with an exuberant German shepherd. There are also two parking lots, so if you are planning to meet there, make sure you coordinate which one you'll go to as they are on opposite sides of the large park. read more

10/10! shaded, new, well designed park with restrooms, enclosed fence around, plenty of benches, and water refill! read more

John D. Morgan Park - Lovely park! Kids are having a blast! - Playgrounds Near Me - Campbell, California

First review of 2021, and I wanted to make it a 5-star one to start the new year on a positive note! John D. Morgan Park is such a neighborhood gem in Campbell, and a beautiful park for various activities for all ages. It's so rare nowadays to find huge, open parks in our over-developed towns and cities, especially in the Bay Area, so a park of this size that's very well maintained is a wonderful thing! I've run through this park on the paved path, worked out here on the endless stretches of grass, and walked around it countless times with my hubby. It's enormous, it's always a brilliant color of green, and it's awesome! For families or picnic goers, there are restrooms next to the parking lots along Rincon Ave & Budd Ave. There are also large playgrounds for the kiddos by both of those restrooms/parking lots. Picnic tables are scattered all around the park, but mainly by those parking lots and along the paved walking/running path that connects from Rincon to Budd. Also one whole corner of the park is attached to the Campbell School of Innovation with its colorful buildings. Anytime I've come here whether it be a weekend or weekday, there is always plenty of space for all to enjoy. There may be soccer matches or volleyball games in the grass from time to time, but like I said, it's a huge park so there's more than enough space for park-goers to enjoy themselves, get some fresh air, surround themselves with nature, and in light of most of 2020 and now going into 2021...lots of space to social distance from each other! read more

Great park for parties and families! Attended a child's birthday party here recently and it was a blast. Lots of tree cover and shade. BBQ grills available for use next to many picnic areas. Plenty of tables and seating within close proximity to the playground. My child loved the playground so much. Tears were shed as we left . There seemed to be a lot of dirt everywhere and there was dirt on the slide. Some grassy areas were muddy. Bring a change of clothes for the littles! There's also a water feature, but I believe it is only turned on in the summer. Very dog friendly. I saw a few on walks while we were there. The main parking lot was completely full so we parked on the street. I saw that were was another parking lot if you drive down Rincon, however it wasn't accessible by that road so you'll likely need to go around. read more

This park is huge! The address listed when you look up the park is the main one and has a parking lot and street parking. Lots of play areas - some to the right of the parking lot and some further to the left that are the accessible ones and are gated. There are two different play areas here and both say they are for ages 5-12. There is also a sand volleyball court and lots of basketball courts as well as a horseshoe out with no visible horse shoes. Guess they can't leave those lying around ... If you enter on Budd Avenue there is another play structure that I believe has the bumpy slide that some have listed in photos. Next time, we will go there. It seems much less crowded when I have driven by. There is also a large parking lot and sports fields on that side. read more

I really wanted to like this park, but it was such a poor reflection of the people who attend this park. There were deflated balloon scraps, mixed into the ta bark and a ton of litter everywhere (if you have a baby or toddler, please beware.) Maybe the condition in which I found the place is hopefully not the "norm", but there were quite a few balloon scraps all over the place, and given that it is one of the top choking hazards...yikes! There is an orange plastic fence surrounding the water area, which unfortunately has fallen and is a safety hazard. My 1.5 year old tripped over it, and I almost did too! (ironic, since they put it around the water area for safety purposes, my guess). There is a slide and whatnot, and it is in decent condition. I didn't see any swings - baby or otherwise. Lots of trees and green grass. A couple of people blasting music on a weekday that had swear words, which is fine if you are at a college frat party, but in a public park with kids..... eek! Also: when my daughter tried to go down the slide, there were some kids trying to go up, and I politely asked them to wait until after so they can be safe. It took a couple of minutes for their parents to come over and even then, I ended up having to move my daughter away from the slide since the boy kept trying to climb up it :-/. We left within 20 minutes or so unfortunately. Don't think I will be returning until my daughter is a tween, or the condition of the park changes. read more

John D. Morgan park is one of our favorite parks. We have taken the girls (7 & 9) there to play and we have held get-togethers with their classmates there. First thing to be aware of is that this park is really big and it has two parking lots (one on off Rincon Ave and one off Budd Ave). I once made the mistake of parking at the wrong one, not knowing how big the park was, and took a very very long walk to get to the other side close to the other parking lot. The great thing about this park is that it has something for everyone. There are multiple playgrounds with a variety of play structures, bathrooms, lots of picnic areas and BBQ grills, baseball/softball field, lots of very large open grassy areas, and lots of trees. There is a school next to the park that has an awesome play area with some cool play structures that the girls love. Every time we have been there gates to the school's play area have been open. This is one of the best parks in the area and is worth checking out. read more

Such a beautiful park! It is 32-acres of grassy fields and trees and just an awesome place for a picnic or bbq or to play sports. There is a baseball field, basketball court etc There are TWO large playgrounds, one on each side of the park. The playground by Rincon is better for toddlers and has a big see-saw that multiple kids can climb at a time, a huge rope pyramid, and a water structure. The one on Budd has a tall fort-like structure that is more suitable for older children, but there is also a small toddler structure on that side as well which is nice if you have both to entertain! The Budd playground is more shaded. It is a lovely paved stroll between the two playgrounds. Both playgrounds have bathrooms and parking lots adjacent to them. A few reviews I read before coming mentioned the parking lot on Rincon to get crowded which is true, but there is also a parking lot where Rincon dead-ends that is essentially empty. read more

John D Morgan Park is a great spot for all ages. The park has signs enforcing social distancing and is sanitizing the play equipment every morning. One side of the park has a spot for toddlers and bigger kids. The other side has another spot for little kids. There are large fields for soccer and baseball in between and walking baths for folks to take a big stroll. It's a great neighborhood park! read more

This a family friendly park located on Rincon Ave in Campbell. Pro Tip: the best access is actually on Budd and San Thomas. There is a great kids playground and restrooms as well as BBQ Pits within 100 feet of the parking lot. Been coming here for years.. don't know why I have never yelped it (maybe I wanted to keep all you Riff Raff yelpers away C; lol) Today I saw a Rainbow coming from the park so I pulled in and took a photo to share the blessing with all of you C: The park has a baseball Dimond, basketball courts and plenty of area to stretch out and have a nice picnic with your friends or family. If your in the area I'd recommend stopping buy, even top eat your lunch in the car and enjoy the views. read more

If I could give this place six stars, I would. This is our new go to park, and I love coming here. If you're looking to avoid the crowds, don't go on a weekend! On the budd side there's a car park. There is a huge play structure for the older kid's with swings, and a smaller one for the 2-5 year olds with a see-saw. There are wood chips on the floor under both, and if you bring a bucket and spade it'll stretch the playtime out a little further They have public toilets, a picnic area and bbqs and a huge open field. On the other side of the park they have another car park with a different okay structure as well as basketball courts. There's lots of shade around the edge and a huge well kept field to run and play in. The grass is cut regularly, and for the most part, people pick up after their dogs, so safe for the littles to run about. read more

Parking - weekends it gets packed fast! When I arrived, there was only 1 parking available. I would say about 15 parking spaces maybe 20. Seems a lot of games are held here so the parking area gets traffic with parents dropping off their kids for games being held! +1 great for parties, bbq areas available not sure if it is first-come first serve or have to call City of San Jose to reserve! Plenty of picnic tables Shade area available... Nice Play area for kids, also looks like a small water park area is near, not sure if they use it though, would be nice though! The park is in a residential area, very nice quiet area! Glad I found this park while I was in the area!! I recommend this park! Get there early to find good parking and grab a table! read more

There are some great pro's and con's to this park. I do like going here, but I feel uncomfortable going every day or more than 2-3 times a week. Pro's: wonderful pathway to walk from Rincon entrance to Budd Ave entrance, or other way around - its flat and not a very long walk - just enough exercise if you are like me and *have* to do it rather than want to do it. two fun playgrounds with a nice population of children cavorting about two restroom stalls on both the Budd Ave and Rincon Ave entrance - and two soda machines with water, a sports drink and the usual suspects of sodas benches everywhere, its great !!! If you need a break you don't really have to walk far at all big wide open grass area and pretty trees !! CONS: kind of sketchy people who go there. Dudes with big beer bottles in paper bags chilling at picnic tables at 1-2pm in the week day afternoons. Sketchy trailer vans parked in the back lot of the Rincon Ave entrance closest to San Thomas Expwy. -- this one point is what makes me uncomfortable to go very often, I really don't want to become a target for any shenanigans for these people who I get weird vibes from. I think weekends are better and less isolating. Budd Ave is much busier than the Rincon Ave area. Not really a con, but if you make a mistake and go to the wrong entrance its a big deal. San Thomas makes a lot of noise pollution. Not a very peaceful place to listen to nature. Dogs all over the grass! Cute to see them so happy but that means dog pee all over and owners who don't always clean up. Riskier for kids running around. read more

Today I came by and the large play structure on Budd Avenue was completely removed ! I loved how high the tube slides were ! Hopefully they will be putting something just as good if not better. I was sad to not have the opportunity to go there one last time before they tore it down. I had enjoyed this side of the park for many years and the past. read more

It was our first time to be at this park. It has such a big area and offers various type of activities: playground for the kids, big field for simultaneous baseball and soccer games, etc. It also has a picnic area for different events. Parking is a bit of a challenge on the weekend. But there's parking around the park. You just have to be patient to look and then walk to and from the park. read more

What a great park. A newer one with newer park features. Really cool co swings with a seat for the parents and a seat for the babies/toddlers to swing together at the same time.

Wow! What a great public park...although parking was a bit of a problem on the Budd Ave side of the park with multiple birthday parties and soccer games going on. 32 acres is huge! And there were tons of folks out enjoying the park on the lovely Saturday I was there. We were there for one of several birthday parties happening in the area. And the hostess had reserved (and paid for) the entire picnic area...which wasn't sitting well with other folks but oh well. Unfortunately, like parks everywhere, the people who were in the space before us did not clean up after themselves so step 1 was picking up the remnants of the party before us. But I did see park staff emptying trashcans half way through the day. Lots of space for kids to run and a fun jungle gym area plus swings. Good times. read more

We have driven past John D Morgan park many times going to my father-in-law's. At the turning light on Budd you can't tell how nice or big the park is. All you see is the hillside and think nothing of it when turning after the light turns green. We are a park going family. My husband likes to keep the kids busy and we frequent lots of parks in our neighborhood and other cities. While I was doing laundry on Sunday my husband took the kids to John D Morgan park. He sent me some pictures of the kids playing and the playground was impressive thru the pictures he had sent me. Monday we decided to take the kids again. I got to see how big and beautiful the park is. It's equipped with a sand box, playgrounds for smaller and bigger kids, benches, lots of room for baseball, kite flying and CLEAN restroom which is always a plus in my book. Parking is the only issue I saw with this park but you can go around and park in the middle school parking lot in the back of the park. Definitely will be back to lounge and watch the kids play on a nice, sunny day :) read more

We loved the big playground on the Budd side of the park. Old wood, metal nets, sandbox, and swings. All gone. It's currently demolished and under construction for something new. The Rincon side is still open but the splash pad is not on. Smaller playground with rope pyramid and playground equipment. Lots of good shade trees and picnic tables make it popular on the weekend. read more

This park is HUGE! On the Rincon side there is an area for smaller kids complete with a huge sandbox, water features and play structure. If you follow the path to the other side of the park, there are larger play structures with a few small ones mixed in. The trees and beautiful lawn areas were enough to make us want to stay for hours. I also love that the picnic tables on the Rincon side are set up so you have a good view of the play area. It is easy to feed and monitor more than one kid at once. The restrooms are also very conveniently located. Just as a heads up, I'm not sure if this applies to the whole park but on the Rincon side of the park, there are No Dogs Allowed signs. If you want a similar type of park where dogs are welcome, check out Houge Park. read more

Update: the big new park on the south end is mow opened. It's great. A lot of people already discovered this because it is pretty crowded.

Pretty fun park. Lots of open field to run. Because this place is so huge, make sure you know where you are meeting your friends if you are coming with a crowd. Water feature and toddler/preschooler side is on the Rincon Avenue side and the water area is closed on Mondays. The toddler sand area is quite large but difficult to see the kids when they are focused on their playing and hidden by the structures. Playground for the older kids is on the other side of the park...which is about a mile away. Parking can be challenging. If you can't find parking on the street on in the lot closest to Rincon Avenue, drive to the second lot that is parallel to San Tomas Expressway. ENJOY! read more
