Great huge park that has lots of land to run around and play and a playground. It also has ponds that has a boat launch and one where ducks are all gathered. Pay attention to the signs of what to feed and what not to feed the ducks! read more

Kennedy Park - Parks Near Me - Napa, California

How does a public park not have 5 of 5 stars? Swung by with my husband and pup to relax between meals basically lol, and it was lovely. They have two sand volleyball pits, public bathroom, lots of picnic tables, lots of green grass and lots of trees. There's also a trail for hiking and it's dog friendly. We threw down a blanket and took a catnap in the shade under the trees and when my dog got bored, we watched the volleyballers battle it out a ways away. They have a decent sized parking lot available, with additional parking in a smaller lot just up the road closer to the baseball diamond. read more

I love this park it's next to the river so it's cooler than the city of Napa it can be very hot but the park is cool and breezy the experience is always awesome I enjoyed everything read more

What a beautiful and active park. Great views, many athletic fields, picnic tables, plenty of clean rest rooms, trails, kayak and boat launch, parking. Great for dogs. Awesome. I have no idea what other negative reviews are about. Did the county clean this place up recently? I found no traces of homelessness or vandalism in February 2022. read more

Really easy parking, gorgeous lake that you can also see the golf course and some fun ducks and geese to keep you company! Went for a paint sesh with a friend and it was really enjoyable! read more

Kennedy Park - Painting by the lake - Parks Near Me - Napa, California

Beautiful park but there is a homeless encampment issue. The trails by the river where it meets the creek There are Homeless encampment everywhere.. I don't believe they will hurt you they are just trying to make it. But it does take away from the beautiful views and definitely do not go fishing all the banks are taken up by camps. read more

With the exception of the many homeless camps in the area this park does have potential. It's unfortunate that Napa won't take an aggressive approach to improving this park. read more

Kennedy Park - Social distancing - Parks Near Me - Napa, California

On Friday December 21st 2018 I was walking a student who has down syndrome on the walking trail at Kennedy park. (This was four days before Christmas) For us it's usually about a 35 minute walk. we try to do 2 miles. I parked in the parking lot near the park. When I came back to my car, my window had been busted out. my purse had been stolen. I have limo black tint on my back to windows so whoever did it with obviously looking to find something. Unfortunately there were no cameras throughout the park and no one saw anything. I don't recommend this area of the park. there's always homeless people. There's always cars that look like they sleep there overnight. read more

Playgrounds! Tables! Benches, duck pond, golf course views. It was a nice place to rest before heading back on the freeway.

Nicely maintained, super sprawled out public park in the town of Napa... One of the few parks around and basically the only one in the county where you could launch a boat for free, do skateboarding and BMX biking on an obstacle course, go biking, take your kids to the playground, go golfing, go to the Bird sanctuary area and feed hundreds of birds (stop in advance and spend four dollars on a box of cheezit's first, you'll thank me later), as well as tons and tons of barbecue areas, baseball fields, soccer, and more. Popular place for locals to light up a bbq, invite 20 friends, and cookout to some music. read more

This park is amazing for kite flying when the wind is up. Spent a few hours flying and walking.

Kennedy Park is an OK place not far from the Community College and the nearby highway. It's an urban refuge. The picnic areas and the paths along the Napa River are pleasant, but the facilities tend to be mediocre. The meeting areas could use some work and cleanup. It doesn't have the breathtaking views of Westwood Hills, or the variety of Sugarloaf Ridge with its coastal redwoods, a seasonal waterfall, and an oak savannah. The Vine Trail linking this park to Calistoga will be a help. read more

Napa Park & Recreations reported it's an easy hike. Okay, but I found it moderate. Up & down. Rocks, slate, mud & leaves. Plenty of opportunities to fall on your face (or butt!). It is lovely though. The great outdoors comes with the fresh air & gorgeous scenery. I'm sure that if one is younger & in better shape - it would be easier. But as I mentioned before, I am not a spring chicken. So there I am, climbing up & down Westwood Park with my walking poles. The poles help me so much. read more

Kennedy Park is the current South Terminus for the planned Napa Valley Vine Trail. First portion is now open, and you can walk, jog, bike or hike the 12.5-miles from Kennedy Park in south Napa to Yountville. Eventually when completed the Vine Trail will span 47-miles(!), connecting all the way from Vallejo to Calistoga! read more

Fun for all! Walk, bike, bbq, launch a boat, play ball... read a book under a tree. Located conveniently behind the Napa College by the golf course, this is a very large park with a variety of things to do. As you drive in you will notice there is a pond on your right hand side where you can feed ducks, geese and other different birds. (watch out for the seagulls, they are brave birds). The geese will take bread from your hands. I'm a bit of an animal whisperer and they have been polite with me so far. The park also has a great walking trail and the loops are marked for distance. There are some softball fields, a playground, a BMX area (u have to sign up to use it through parks and rec I believe) and a radio-controlled model aircraft area. (so cool) There are a lot of open spaces where people set up soccer goals and kick it around a bit. The BBQ areas have picnic tables, bathrooms and water fountains. Some of these areas you need reservations for in order to claim them for the day. I have seen a lot of birthday parties and family reunions at these spots. Did I mention that this park is by the Napa river? That's where the "launch a boat part comes in". I'm not sure about the boat launching rules, but it's free. This makes it a great place for bird watching (I'll post a pic I took yesterday). DOG FRIENDLY TOO! Most owners are super cool and pick up after them. Some need to work on it. I see people using the softball field with their dogs even though there is a sign that clearly says not to. I'm going to go ahead and assume they pick up any doo doo their doggy makes. =) No smoking signs are also present at the walking areas. That's because we are there to enjoy the fresh air. Grab a friend, human or dog and go take a walk. Bring a camera if you are into birds. read more

Drug dealers, condoms on the ground next to duck pond, dead duck carcasses, litter everywhere. Used to take my kids here but after I was injured when I tripped on a wildlife snare and saw all the debris every where that changed. Called them to let them know how bad it was and how there was dead animals by the pond and no one even returned my calls. Checked on it a couple weeks later and it was all still there- same biological hazards, Garbage and dead ducks. So sad read more

My family went to a wedding. It was hard to find the wedding place because of lack of directions and being too close to the golf course. Lots of golfers and carts! :/ People were decent, buildings, and male restroom were decent though. read more

Great park for anything outdoor, free boat launches, plenty of parking well cared for, only downside is the homeless encampments have waterfront property and the city cant seem to do anything about it. This use to be a decent fishing spot. Aside from the shoreline everything is pretty awesome. read more

Best park in Napa! Love the openness of the whole area, and the fact that it's miles long, making it a great place for walks. There's a bit of everything; Baseball fields, walking trail, Napa river, playground, picnic areas, open grass fields, duck pond, you name it. My boyfriend enjoys this park, as does my little Chihuahua. Taking walks here is super relaxing. read more

My daughter loves this park. We can go play at the playground & take a stroll next to the river. Lots of shady places to have a picnic.
