And that bigger whale fossil - my kids loved climbing on it. The controllable water feature with the turtles is pretty cool too, and the boys enjoyed playing around in the sand, probably because it was one of the few areas with shade. I do wish there was more shade by the actual playground area. There's plenty of features here like slides, a bridge, a few sandy areas, small tractors, and more. Most families there were huddled in the shady area, so much of the playground was empty.

We easily found street parking. Could be a problem I guess on busy times. I love the soft foam cushion surface. Very colorful and had some "nice modern twist " of old fashioned regular play ground activities. I love that most if not all the children were being watched by parents, grandparents etc. my nephew loved the big slides and rock climbing mountain. I got so much joy from watching all the kids play. Nice seeing them be kids instead of playing video games.

Well today I brought my new pup Kobie-Star that is 1year old . It was Kobie -Stars first time here,…read moresadly my beautiful Sadie has gone to heaven at 15 1/2 last Feb 28th but I have all the beautiful memories of her here and every where I go. Kobie and I walked the park this morning even though it was completely packed with littles here to play sports and there was a couple of birthday parties about to start . Kobie- Star and I enjoyed the Rose Garden walk it's my favorite area to walk as it was with Sadie , so many smells for the pups to sniff and pics moments . Kobie- Star had to check everything out and she got a few ( how cute you can tell she is a pup exploring everything ) !! Kobie-Star had to check out every path and every wall. We then walked the park and by then she was tired . This park has everything, paths , roses , shade trees everywhere, bathrooms , party areas , great adventure areas for kids to play on , great sport fields . Parking is plentiful but in a day like today parking was crazy , in fact a lady was so inpatient she couldn't wait for me to completely park my car before she started backing in to the spot behind me , I had to honk my horn a few times as I almost hit her and did she care or say I'm Sorry , NOPE !! The people in the car next to me said , that was a close one - I said I know thank goodness I am a defensive driver ugh ! That spot was not going any where lady Patience is a virtue . Sad she had 5 little girls in her car they were there for sports ( next time take an extra 1 min ) plus $$$$ it could have cost her an hour or more had she hit me !! Just saying - it's a beautiful day let's all enjoy it together!

RATING BREAKDOWN | Playground: 5 | Restroom: 4 | Environment: 4 | Price: 5 | PARKING Side street parking nearby is free. LOCATION/AMBIANCE The playground is surrounded by a residential village with single family homes and townhouses. This area of SoCal is absolutely beautiful with its mild climate, oak canyons, valleys, and hills. The playground entails a linear design which serves as a clever use of space. PLAYGROUND Its features include the following in no particular order: + sturdy playground equipment with poured rubber surfacing + turf hill for sliding or rolling down (bring cardboard pieces) + plenty of concrete for scooters, bicycles, tricycles, and strollers + kid-sized zip rail + swinging egg chairs in front of a fire pit + adirondack chairs + benches + slides + swings + shade trees + huge community chalk board + picnic shelter My kids love playing outside probably more so than most children these days. They didn't want to leave on 2/21/22. RESTROOM I was so lucky there was a clean restroom open for one of my daughters. It was located within a short walk of the play structures in the building called The Garage. MY FAVORITE PART... How I found this park... scouring Google maps per usual. MY LEAST PART... It's in a remote area for sure.
