Such a beautiful park!!…read more I've had Delano Manongs Park bookmarked for quite some time and as time passed, I honestly forgot about this place. With an upcoming play date planned between myself and a gf, I was happy that this particular park was picked for our meet up. First things first, this park is MASSIVE! Delano Manongs Park is broken into 10 parts- YES, I SAID 10!! This includes a small and large dog park, multiple gardens, a fitness station, and a number of play structures to keep all your little munchkins happily occupied. The park is very well kept, the restrooms are very doable, and with its large size, there isn't that congested feeling you get with other locations. On top of the many perks, there is a large field to kick or throw around a few balls. The only flaw- and might I add that it is a big one- is the lack of actual shade. Your relief from the sun's powerful rays is limited to the gazebo where the benches are or using the large flower structures as a shield. 5/5 stars all in all. This is lots of fun for kids of all ages.

This new dog park is listed as "Piedmont Road dog park" under Google maps since it is technically…read moreon Piedmont Road but also connected to Penitencia Park. The park is divided in two: big dog and small dogs. Its mostly just dry dirt with some tanbark along the edges. No poop bags are provided however, there is a spot for some tennis balls and a water fountain along with a big bowl. Theres 4 benches mostly parked under the shade of big trees so you can expect a bit of seating. Parking right next to the dog park is pretty limited as it's mostly just street parking along Piedmont Road. No food or drinks are allowed and people, for the most part, follow the rules. Sometimes people bring their medium/large dogs into the small dog park so do keep an eye on your dog. The park is pretty well kept and clean throughout despite no bags being provided. Most of the people who frequent this park seem very kind and warm. If you have a social pup, I would come here and check it out.

This is a very new dog park! It officially opened around summer of 2024. I heard the residents of…read morethis area are very happy about it since the next closest dog park was in Santa Clara? I briefly visited from out of town for a breed specific meet up so my experience is not that of a regular. Pros include the spaciousness, real grass, bench seating, mature trees providing shade, trash bins inside the park area including poop scoopers, and a water fountain/bowl. When I went the water fountain wasn't working. I did some research beforehand. (Google Maps calls this the Piedmont Road Dog Park. I don't know if that's the official name.) They don't have poop bags either. I think these drawbacks will likely be remedied in the future. I've seen at other dog parks the community members step up and install back up poop bags or bring in stainless steel troughs for the water. In the meantime, bring your own bags and water! The one thing I really did not like was the parking situation. Piedmont seems very busy. There isn't a parking lot to pull into. I drove past the park initially. It's street parking on Piedmont with some areas of the curb being red or green. The solution would be for someone to park in a lot inside the park (another entrance) and to walk to the dog parks. There's also a shopping plaza across the street and residential streets nearby if you don't mind crossing the street. The real grass and mature trees/shade are really rare for a dog park! I could see this place being five stars for someone that lives in the area and is more experienced with the parking situation than me.

We were regulars…read morefor a while until October 2023 when our Corgi got a hot spot that needed vet attention and shaving, her fur has grown back so we'll probably be going on the regular again. Sundays starting around 10am there's a Corgi meetup. Most of the owners are nice. There was one day where someone brought out an aggressive dog the owner wasn't correcting, and the other dog owners had no issues telling the guy to remove himself and his dog. I also have a Del Monte Weekly Corgi meetup group on Facebook with a lot more pictures if anyone wants to see pics of Corgi's in various stages of play.

This is a hidden gem of a park in a quiet neighborhood in Milpitas. We were looking for local parks…read morethat were suitable for a toddler play date and decided to check out this place in person. We wanted to find a park that is relatively new/in good condition and not too crowded to let the little ones safely play. I'm honestly surprised that this isn't a more popular place to bring your kids. I suppose a part of it is because it is a neighborhood park without dedicated parking, although there is plenty of street parking. With that being said, the play area is gated so it is safe to let your children roam with supervision, the play structures are all in very good condition and the padded flooring is intact across the park. Very suitable for toddlers and older children, they even have a baby changing station inside of the bathroom, as well as adequate drinking fountains and drinking fountains for dogs. We were there on a Saturday morning, from 9 to 10am and were the only family there the entire time. This is completely different compared to some of the other parks in Sunnyvale or San Jose, where it can become a zoo by that time. We will definitely be setting up future play dates here.

This is a nice little park in milpitas! I was looking for dog parks. Found this place because I…read moredidn't want to go too far or to Ed Levin (i don't like having cellular signal issues lol). Definitely meant for the surrounding neighborhoods. There are multiple entrances but are basically towards the end of each street. It seems dog friendly enough with a dog enclosure and easy to stroll around and walk your dog. There's a nice grassy area in the center and I noticed a few instances of owners playing catch with their dogs off-leash. There are picnic tables by the playground and public bathrooms all in the same area. The only water fountain I found was by the picnic/playground/bathroom area and it had a lower fountain for dogs. **Dog park: The dog area was really small, all dirt with one bench. Big dog and small dog are separated but the size is pretty similar to each other with the big dog having just a LITTLE bit more space. It was empty for me except for 1 dog owner but I wonder if there would be more dogs after-work hours for some socialization :-) you would have to walk a little but further down to the main area for water fountain.

Watson Park offers more than just a dog run. There are a couple parking lots, basketball courts,…read moresoccer/sports field, and a larger grassy field (in the main park) without shade as the trees are mainly located at the border of the park. There's also a sizable playground, a few picnic tables and park benches scattered throughout, a cement walking trail, and at least one restroom. I came by during Viva CalleSJ this past weekend so there were a bunch of porta potties too, as well as food trucks and vendor tents set up. I picnicked under the trees, enjoying some good eats from Shrimp'n Aint Eazy while listening to live music by the San Jose Jazz Collective on a breezy Sunday afternoon. Nothing really notable about the scenery here, but it's a nice enough park and a lovely setting for events like this.

The grass is never moved ,it's full of foxtails. I realized that the park doesn't provide poopie bags. But people should bring their own. I walked around the perimeter and found stacks of crap. The people here aren't very concerned about other people's dogs. A lady with a aggressive medium size dog left the large side. She thought it was a good idea to come to the small dog side. I guess she thought it would make her dog feel better to bully smaller dogs. The last straw for me. WARNING bringing your dog here is a risky.

This is a hidden gem in Saratoga located in an assuming part of a residential area at a dead end…read more The park is made up of mostly turf with the area around the perimeter being mostly dirt. I appreciate the turf so my pup doesn't get dusty and dirty after a dog park session. The park is mixed with both large and small dogs but from what I've seen, most of the dogs who come here are very chill and well behaved. I haven't observed anything even close to a confrontation so if you're worried about bringing your small dog here, I would feel safe. But that's just from what I've noticed lately. Always keep an eye on your pups and know the warning signs of aggression. Parking is plentiful around the residential area. The park itself is quiet and the people usually keep to themselves. So this is a good spot for introvert dog owners.

I was surprised by how large the park is--over 1,500 acres of open space, rolling hills, and greenery. Our group had a picnic area near the lake, with restrooms conveniently located nearby. There was plenty of room for everyone, including a large grassy area. Even on a Sunday afternoon around 2:30 p.m., there were only two other large groups in the picnic area. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, a nice change from the busy shopping centers, restaurants, and other crowded places around the Bay Area. Since the park is so large, we didn't have time to explore much beyond the picnic area, but the park also offers hiking, fishing, gliding, paragliding and a dog park. Parking was only $6, and we had no trouble finding a space close to our picnic site. Overall, I found this to be a great spot for family gatherings, picnics, and anyone looking to spend time outdoors.
