The playgrounds are so much fun for our kids and it is also a great space for picnics too. There is a lot of parking here and it's never too busy. Only downside is that you have to pay $3 to $5 to get in but it is well worth it. Definitely one of our top favorite parks to bring the family.

I looked for walking spots in the Brea area and this park popped up. There was a bit of a line to…read moreget in on Memorial Day and the cost for parking on a holiday was $7. The display also showed $5 for weekends and $3 midweek. We wanted to do the Redwood trail and were directed to parking lot A. The park is big and beautifully landscaped with a pond and various picnic areas that can be rented in advance. There is enough space to set up all kinds of games. We brought a picnic lunch and sat on a bench that was perfectly situated alone amongst the desert plants. After lunch, we followed the signs for the Redwood Grove Trail which was labeled as easy and is a 1.5 miles dirt trail to the Redwood trees. When you arrive you'll see a small Redwood forest with the history of the trees displayed before you enter. A really beautiful and peaceful spot to relax for a bit. On our way back we decided to take the Creek Trail to see where it would lead us. I was hoping to see water at the end of this trail. But, we only saw a bunch of rocks at one point that may be filled with water if it rains. The end of this trail did lead us to a beautiful butterfly garden and the opposite end of the park. We made the walk back and stopped at the pond. There appeared to be other trails surrounding the park and a trail that leads to the Carbon Canyon Dam.

Plenty of picnic tables and room still available throughout the park. This time we parked inside as we wanted to explore deeper in. Walked around the pond which is about a 10 minute walk or so. Lots of large open space here and sport fields/areas if you're interested in that as well.

The pond…read morearea does smells pretty much all around, even stronger in some areas, and there's lots of bird poop. So do watch your step. I was hoping this park would have a smaller footprint or to be more grand in size, but it was still a good park. I did enjoy my walk around the park. Went around twice, since it wasn't a huge place - you have to actually make up your own route to get a good workout. But they also have an outdoor workout area. I think I'll have to try those out on my next visit. I did like sitting on one of their benches on the other end of the pond. And lots of parking, depending which lot you enter from.

Parking is in front near the entrance, weekdays it's $4 /hr but free on the weekends. Admission is just a $5 suggested donation to support the arboretum. I arrived within the first half hour after opening to try and beat the heat. Even though it was still warm, there were plenty of shaded areas to stay cool along with benches that were great for relaxing. There was also a breeze so that helped. Thought about spending an hour there but glad I paid for two hours of parking because I ended up staying for 1 & 1/2 hours. One of my favorite moments were simply sitting on a bench listening to all the birds. Hopefully you can hear them on the video. This is a peaceful place to unwind and definitely encourage you to visit.

I came on a really hot day, so I only saw about half of the place, but it was such a nice time by the ponds, creeks, and little lake. Beautiful wildlife to admire, too -- turtles, ducks, fish, and tons of dragonflies and other lovely creatures peacefully about. We spent a lot of time admiring a group of docile ducks and enjoying the shade by the water. They also have an online plant shop for those interested in gardening (with a great ongoing deal). Planning on purchasing from there and picking up so I have an excuse to stop by again. Loved my time here. Expect to enjoy yours too!

Parking is easy with a large lot right next to the lake, opposite of the lake are some hiking trails if you have more time. It's a nice loop going around with some different areas along the way such as a small creek, reeds near the shore, and some water works that looks like they have been turned off or no longer function. Even in Winter there are a lot of different birds around. My kids loved following and chasing the large pelicans in the lake. You can fish here and there are children's fishing competitions. Just keep in mind to have a permit because when we went there was a police officer checking and ticketing people.

They have enough parking, they do games on the field too. They have a playground for older and younger kids, they also have an area down below you can have birthday's and you can ride around if you want too. I love this park it's sweet and everyone is always friendly here. Yesterday met our friend she met when she was around 2 years old, was nice to see them and let our kids play. It was such a beautiful night too. Calming breeze with the sun setting i got some beautiful pictures too. Baby girl and her friend got to play for a couple hours and met some friends too. Always nice kids at this park, they had fun. Except a little boy they were playing with ran off and the Mom wasn't paying attention and i physically could not chase him so I had baby girl try to catch him but then he just kept running further away. We told the Mom and she ran to try and find him was a bit nerve wrecking thinking this little boy was lost he ran through the bushes and then baby girl spotted him at the top of the hill where houses were thank God and the Mom ran over and got him. I can only imagine her scare i would have ran after him if I could but couldn't thank God baby girl spotted him though. After that the kids played a bit longer and I was able to catch a bit of the sunset :) Thank you for keeping this park so nice and pretty and all the friendly people that come here such great memories at this park watching baby girl grow up. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha
