First time visiting the park with my little. Loved the fact that the park is gated and need to go through another gate for the toddler playground. Was able to keep my little safe and I was at ease letting them explore. read more

This is a great little park. It has a huge grassy field and the typical playground. It was renovated a couple of years ago. It has lots of picnic tables with some covered. There are bathrooms (not the nicest but they're okay) and water fountains. Kids like to ride their bikes around the playground on the "track." There is a cool little zip line chair for the kids to use. There is a separate area for the little ones to play (baby/toddler area). The entire playground area is enclosed. read more

This is a beautiful clean and spacious park with ton's of things to explore. It's got two area's one for smaller kids and one for older but I think and feel it has a feel of the magical bridge playground, only smaller. We go often on play dates to this park and the kids have a blast. The place also has some shaded areas as well. Parking can be tricky, as it is only street parking, so you may have to park where your able to get a spot, and then walk. This is my go to park with my son and his bestie. read more

This park is amazing!! There is an awesome tot area with a play structure (that is shaded!! Mostly) under a canopy. The entire playground has the rubbery ground which is infinitely better (safer in my opinion-- I remember getting splinters on wood chip playgrounds growing up and that was NOT fun). There's a gate to enter the park and another gate to enter the tot area which is great/extra safety. There's a big parking lot next to the park with shaded spots. There are public restrooms. There's a shaded picnic table area. All the good things! read more

Great park! Small but has enough to keep kids engaged. Will definitely come back soon

My grandson loved it! We had a blast! Very clean, very safe. We will visit again next time we come to San Jose.

Cool park. Kids had fun on zipline. I just wish there was more areas with shade. We liked that there was a bathroom and lots of cool things to play with read more

Really nice park with a good sized parking lot attached. It reminds me of a 2/3 scale Magical Bridge, with high quality rides and big play structure. The zip line-style ride is a particularly big draw. Another great feature - the entire playground is fenced in. Keeps smaller humans from wandering off. The younger kids section is also great, and most of it is shaded. On a hot day this is a big game changer. This is a nice park especially on hot days, very safe, and appeals to a wide age range. The attached parking lot is also really helpful as street parking is kind of tough. If you live near here it's definitely worth checking out. They even have some adult fitness machines although I think kids end up using them most of the time. read more

This was an awesome park! I didn't realize I could be so enthusiastic about a park until today haha. It reminds me of the magical playgrounds in Sunnyvale and Palo Alto and it even had a musical instrument section; it has lots of different equipment that appeals to those with different tactile needs. There is a restroom, although it's like your average hiking stop restroom. Good enough for my kiddo to use it though. There seems to be 3 different sections at the playground, so if you have more than 1 kiddo and are by yourself, it may be a bit of a challenge keeping an eye on them because they may be a bit spread apart. It's gated and definitely feels safe! For parking, at first I thought I was parking at a school, since the lot reminded me of something like it, but suffice it to say, there is ample parking. There is no tanbark, which is great because it means that during the summer your kiddo won't complain about it getting in their sandals (and also you don't have to deal with splinters!). I was actually surprised that there weren't too many kiddos on a Sunday afternoon (although it was also a hot day, so maybe that explained it). Ran into several parents and they all were incredibly nice and considerate and mindful of their kids and their interactions with others. This may be one of my new go-to parks! read more

They have a small lawn where you can play ball or frisbee. There is also a small picnic area with a covered area. There is a cool playground for kids. If you an adult you are pretty much SOL. read more

I love this park because they have special playground equipment for kids with special needs and I am a caregiver for a little girl in a wheelchair and she loves going there. They have a zip line I can strap her in as well as a swing. I particularly love the merry go round because I can wheel her in and lock her chair and she can get spun around. There is always a lot of parking available and tables and benches. Definitely recommend going here because their playground is big and fun for all ages! read more

This park is one of the best sensory and inclusive parks in San Jose! I have a 3 year old son with autism and sensory input is key for him, this park even has slides for great sensory. The entire park is gated which is great for kids who just love to freely run around. They have a smaller children section that's great for baby's and kids ages 1-3. The bigger playground is great for toddlers as well and is always clean. They have several inclusive rides and wheelchair accessible. The downside is that it can get pretty crowded, best times to go is either early morning or lunch hour for less crowds. read more

Perfect spot for all ages and ways to watch your child whether you're playing with them or sitting down!

This review is for the toddler park. I yelped "toddler playgrounds" and Lincoln Glen was the closest park near us. It's nestled in a quiet neighborhood, and attached to a community center. We went on a Saturday around 12pm. The toddler park is gated with two entrances. It's cute and free from garbage. There is plenty of shading for parents and sitters to stand in while the kids plays. Near the seesaw there bushes that birds like to fly to and sing. My toddler finds this to be her prime time entertainment as she LOVES birds but doesn't get to see them as closely in our regular park. This park doesn't seem to be very popular as there was only two other toddlers the entire time we were there. There is a sand box that we did not use as our toddler was more interested in the wooden riders. She couldn't get enough of them! We enjoyed the toddler slides and swing set. She also enjoyed the grass and kept walking on it and touching it. Do keep in mind there is also tan bark around the toddler structure. Some of the wooden riders show wear and may unexpectedly cause splinters. Our regular park is meant for all ages, but is over populated due to all the apartment buildings around it. Lincoln Glen is a breath of fresh air, and a slight call back to my child hood. I feel we can come here and not worry about her getting stepped on or pushed by kids and preteens playing tag on the play structures. The big kid section is on the other end of the park. We did not go to that side. There is a bathroom on-site. read more

I love this park. Clean and just the right size for the kids to play in and be able to see them while playing. The parking lots is really big so you don't have to worry about finding parking. Nice grass area to play on or have a picnic. I also had a birthday party here for my son. Nice shade area. This place for perfect for my 5 yr old. read more

Nice playground with lots of different activities and gated area for toddlers but no shade !! Rendering it all but useless unless you want hot Sun . read more

Phenomenal park and one of the best in the city embedded in the community. Lots of parking with many obstacles and activities for the kids to play with, vast open space and benches to relax and eat. Park has sections for different ages and accommodates play for all ages. read more

Lots of parking available. Gated all around so very safe! I believe when summer comes, they have a small water area for kids. 2 play structure for smaller kids and older kids. Small picnic area. I like this park a lot ! read more

Two fenced playgrounds. One for 5 and under and the other for older children. There are tables inside the toddler park. Sand in both playgrounds. The only thing I would be careful with are the parts where the ground doesn't level up to the structural pieces. It could be a slip hazard. Otherwise nice park! read more

This was a cool park before the remodel. It's still a cool park after, some different & cool stuff, like the chair swing zip line. Giving a bad review because of the new tanbark used at this park. We go to different parks around willow glen and San Jose daily with my kids, this is the only park that we get slivers all over all 3 times we've come to this park! Mind you, we do not play in the tanbark, but it spills onto the rubber surface and I as an adult, will have 30+ slivers, all over my hands & legs. (It sticks into my yoga pants from sitting on the floor or curb or picking up my kids.) We tried to picnic on the concrete in the middle and sat on some. I have no idea why, but it hurts. It really needs to be vacuumed up and get the new usual tanbark at every other park read more

I love this park. I'm a nanny, to two twin girls, and I love how the parks are separated. I really enjoy having the infant/toddler park gated in. It allows me to sit down and be able to relax knowing that they can roam the whole area, from the swings to the climbing structure without the chances of going into the street.(I do keep a close eye on them regardless of a gate, and therefore are no chances of running Into the street, but it helps ease my mind a little) I'm giving this park 4 stars because: The water fixture isn't running, and according to the handy man, won't be running for another week or so, as summer is coming to an end, it was kind of a bummer that the water was shut for most of the summer time, but still a great park. Also, the bathrooms are closed, which means you need to use the ones at the senior center. Just an inconvenience, but the senior center bathrooms are cleaner. Also, they keep up to date on fixing problems with the park, and it's fairly clean. This park is around the corner from my place of work, it makes perfect for afternoon walks, and a quick outing when the girls need to burn some energy. read more

Came to this park for Easter, my family and I have been coming here for many years now to celebrate Easter. It's kinda of a tradition to come to this park. But today we were very disappointed. Both the men and women's restroom was a mess it's was pretty disgusting seeing period blood on the floor and pads everywhere. The men's bathroom there was pee everywhere. Nothing but ghetto people everywhere smoking marijuana. It's cute park don't get me wrong but it's not what it used to be sadly read more

great toddler park area. Only downer is that the gate doesnt really close, or is easy for tots to open. I have twins so that's a factor for me. Tot area is totally enclosed. sand box and water feature. could use more shade. read more

This place is a great little park that I've taken my little one too. There are two playground areas - one for toddlers and the other for older kids. The playground area for toddlers has a soft foamy type of ground. This playground is great for her size. During the summer, the water spouts/spray is on so she's enjoyed that immensely. Just be sure to come prepared with a towel and change of clothes. read more

Kool little place! Especially if you have little children. Plus it's in a great location ray to access and close to civilization lol. Meaning no one will bother you because it's so close to houses people will always see you! Dog walk ok and clean! read more

LOVE this park. The best part (as so many other parents mentioned)... FENCING! Not just for the little kids areas, but also for the soccer field/large playground areas that border Curtner. I felt I could actually sit and relax with two toddlers in this park, specifically due to the enclosures (YES!). Our kids love the sandbox. Someone keeps leaving shovels/pails there for community use which is great (meaning we don't have to bring our own). Only downside is the "water works" areas (water fountains, frogs and splash-pad area) are all run-down and not working. So dissappointing! Sinks were also broken in the bathrooms both times we visited. Too bad because this park is awesome. read more

This place is awesome! The toddler area is very nice and fenced in. All around this place has everything, toddler area, big kid area, grass, water feature, sand pit. This is probably the best kids park in the area. read more

I enjoy this park quite a bit. It has two separate parks, one for the "older or bigger" kids and then one for the "little" kids. The little kids park is gated so they can't really just take off when you blink. The big playground has some fun equipment and the entire park itself is fenced. Parking is great and spots are available all the time. There is also a water feature, which when is working is awesome for everyone. The field tends to be a bit mushy with mud but i'm sure with the warm weather coming will dry it out pretty well. Also, I haven't noticed much dog poop in the grass, which is really nice. read more

My 4 yr old and I enjoy this playground. The toddler area has many shady structures, but the rocking toy horses and teeter totter get really hot on an 85 degree day. The big water spout worked for us on our 1st visit, but not the 2nd. I called the City Parks & Rec to notify them. I guess when it does work kids step on the spouts or put tan bark in it which busts the pipes under ground. So please ask your children not to do this! There were a dozen or so children in their bathing suits who couldn't cool off because if this feature being off . The little stream at the 'big kids' side worked fine and the children loved playing in the wet sand. One full star for having bathrooms! One full star for all the shade. There were Plenty of places to stay cool without interfering with other peoples pic-nics or activity. Our mid- summer visit was great . New tan bark, nice children. Plenty of parking. Oh, one star removed for having a broken toddler swing and broken water feature. I trust this will be repaired soon. read more

Perfect! This park has it all. Tot Lot, gated play area. 2 Water features. Enough room to run and play! I'd give it a 5 if it had a little more shade. Nor Cal is hottttttttttttttttt! read more

This is a park that is readily enjoyed by young children. There is a gated play area with equipment for younger kids and plenty of benches and tables for picnics. There is another playground next door with equipment for slightly older children including two slides and four swings. Unfortunately the zip line is not completely connected: if you can manage to hold your child up four or five feet in the air to reach the section of it that is connected, they have a blast. There is a small water play area in which your child can run through spraying water. This park has bathrooms, a grassy field that is sometimes used for sports practice, and ample parking. The location is as convenient as possible. This park would appeal most to children from age one to eight or nine. Worth a visit if you are in the area and want to entertain young kids. read more

Came to bring the kids to play in the water and cool down and the water spray play area is not on.

Nice little hidden gem in willow glen. They have 2 separate play areas. 1 for toddlers and the other for older kids. The ones for toddlers is gated but my 3 yr old can still unlock the door and get out. In the middle there is a water area for kids to run around. Plenty of parking and easy to find. Although I wish there was more shade, I still love this park! read more

Playground equipment is nice. Good play structures, fun little water features for getting your hands dirty. Fenced in area for toddlers is great. The whole thing could use more shade of course, like most parks in the area. The big problem with this park is the field is full of dog poop. My kid has soccer classes here, and my toddler and husband have gotten covered in dog crap on a few occasions. Other times, we've just been fortunate to see it and step around it, but, seriously, the dog poop makes this park a no. It's... a lot of dog poop. read more

This is a fabulous neighborhood park. The equipment is all in good condition and offers a variety of "obstacles" for developing motor skills. My son enjoys the slides, the wobbly poles and the sand pit. There is a little tykes area that is fenced off (yeah for safety) and a bigger little kids area that has a bit more room to roam. There is also a huge soccer field and plenty of parking. During the summer months there is a water feature - we're excited to try that out as the weather begins to warm. read more

Came here yesterday due to all the good reviews. This park needs some remodeling and cleaning for sure. There was a towel is feces on it in the playground. The grounds are not maintained at all. My son loves sand, which was the main reason I came here. He had fun, but it just seemed so dirty. I won't be back. read more

Great park. I take my kids here because they live down the street, but the field is so ample we can play some catching and batting here. 2 playgrounds and clean bathrooms. In a lovely neighborhood but off a busy street, so of course watch the kiddos! read more

Cute park. Separated into 2 areas by a fence. Toddler area is largest fenced in park I have seen yet. Has a sand area and climbing structure, 2 baby swings and enough sidewalk space for toddlers to stretch their legs without big kids around. This area was great for my 17 month old but boring for my 3.5 year old. So we went over to the big kid area too (5-12 years old). 3.5 year old had plenty to do there. Sand, tall tube slide, plenty of different kinds of climbing (steps, ladder, rope type ladder etc.) monkey bars, and another shorter slide. The 17 month old did well on all the bridges that connect the whole structure and the shorter slide. Bathrooms were typical one stall public restrooms. Not much shade so if you have fair skin, bring SPF. read more

Love how large the fenced in area is at this park. Also love the soft flooring as opposed to wood chips. Easy to park at and conveniently located near a great coffee shop (Elvas). read more

Bathrooms were kinda gross but place is in the cuts and not crowded. The tot lot is fenced in and pretty good playground structure for little and big kids. They have a covered area but bring your own tables and chairs in order to set under. They have about 5 or 6 total cement tables but 3 in the tot lot are really out in the sun and offer no shade. The water play area was inoperable during our visit this saturday.. maybe due to drought ?? Or maybe theres a certain month it begins/ends. It was decent for a birthday party :-) not huge but good read more
