This is the biggest general park in Ripon. It is a pretty large scale park with an upper and a…read morelower area. The upper area has 4 horseshoe pits and bocce ball courts. There is a small kids playground by these courts. Another part of the upper area consists of a large lawn area, which is plenty big for several different sports. There are two baseball diamonds and a medium size playground. The bathrooms are located by the baseball diamonds. Near this area is also a butterfly garden. When you walk to the lower area, there is a large gazebo which is nice for parties. There are two volleyball courts that consist of sand. The remaining area is fairly large and consist of lawn. The park parallels the Stanislaus river and there are several access points to enjoy the water. This park can get fairly busy on the weekends.

When the water is low it only comes up to your knees in most places and deep areas up to your waist. This part of the river is mostly sandy instead of rocky. The city keeps the park well maintained and there appears to a community center along with public restrooms, a butterfly garden, a large gazebo area and a volleyball area. Went on Labor Day and was surprised there were no crowds, especially since there is no entrance fee. You can either park in the park and walk to the river or you can park in a city parking area with paved trails leading towards the river. No BBQ grills or tables near the river but they do have lots of garbage bins so bring your dog, camp chairs and a picnic basket and soak in the natural beauty.

Staff is always friendly and helpful. We enjoy the peaceful area and lots of space to walk our dogs!read more

That's when Amber (Customer Service) stepped in. She immediately took ownership of the situation, genuinely cared about making things right, and brought Mike (Manager) in to help. Instead of making excuses, they worked together to find a solution and made sure I left satisfied. Great customer service isn't about never having problems, it's about how those problems are handled. Amber and Mike went above and beyond, turning a dissatisfied customer into a loyal returning one. They truly know how to treat people, and that's the kind of service that deserves to be recognized. Thank you both!

Unfortunately, the customer service was incredibly rude and unprofessional. Weeks in advance, I emailed management to book a spot for our large group. I was explicitly told via email that they don't take appointments and that it was first-come, first-served. Yet, when we arrived in the morning, the front desk staff was highly reluctant to let us in. They claimed a birthday party was starting around noon and told us we could only stay for 1.5 hours--even though I was paying full price for All-Day passes. When the staff member claimed this rule was clearly stated on their website, I asked her to show me. She couldn't find it. Instead, she dug up an outdated physical document that mentioned a 90-minute limit, but it listed a $25 price point rather than the current $30 rate posted online. It was obvious she was using old, irrelevant policy documents just to justify kicking us out early. Great facility, but the staff's dishonesty and poor attitude ruined what should have been a seamless celebration.

Well, thank those who created and founded this parkway. I haven't read the other reviews but…read morefinding like a place to park and walk is a pain in the ass. I gave up and parked on lathrop road where it's intersecting the Tidewater Trail and theres a traffic light that has that trail name. that's the only traffic is the possibility of pedestrians and maybe a parked car(s) in this ditch or something whatever it's called but i didn't want to park there because of this private property sign. I parked on the side of the road (close to the intersection) where the cavalry community church food distribution center is; the opposing side has no parking any time signs, and so does the side that I parked BUT on the left of this church entrance which is like a half a mile or so down. And actually there was a car parked already too. I want to say it should be fine where I parked. I left about 8 and it was still parked there. Anywho, I was Walking my small dog on a leash, and got onto the trail. It's funny because i see this trail almost everywhere on some streets seeing the tidewater bike trail arrow signs. Finally, I walked on it. There are other people walking and also on bikes. There are posted signs with guidelines at each street intersection. There are dog walkers too and yes there leashed and big ass pit bulls where wanting to get near my small dog growling; I walked on the opposite side and I'd be sure to glance back here and there, and keep your headphones volume low just in case. I came across a park called northgate park and there's a walkway "bike trail ends" which leads into the park. And I seen a softball game with kids, cheering and applauding and a few spectators on the trail also. It's pretty recreational and I just may choose this park next to just go on the trail. Anyhow I continued walking and this goes a long, long long way, 7 miles!! And I only walked just 3 miles one way and walked back to my parked car. This is indeed a bike trail, and I'd want to get a bike soon. And there's low star reviews on here complaining that the trail/road isn't good enough For their skates or skateboard. Pshhh gimme a break. There's a small skate park for that, which is also on the trail too. Trail isnt hard to miss, just look for arrow signs at each intersection when crossing the street. I'm looking forward to more of my future walks here. ...........damn 24 hourfitness had to close which I only had membership so this is how I exercise.

Tidewater Bikeway is a North to South oriented paved Bicycle Path located almost in the center of…read moreManteca. IMO, Tidewater Bikeway is an inappropriate name for this Walking / Jogging Path. The paved Bikeway extends from the center of the city at the NorthWest corner of Wilson Park to the northern part of the city at around the 700 block of Lathrop Road, probably a total of less than four miles. The Southern part of the Pathway is at Moffat Road. The Pathway parallels Moffat Road for about two miles down to Spreckles Avenue. The route is really not challenging enough to classify it for someone with wheels would use, whether it be Skates or Bicycles... it's just too short a route, and there are mandatory stops at all major intersections. And that break from Center to Moffat... you can literally get lost! At every major intersection there are Pedestrian Push Buttons that control the operation of Traffic Lights. Water - There are Drinking Fountains, usually located at the South side of the intersection of every cross street - sized both for kids and adults. I usually fill up my water bottle at the Lathrop Road drinking fountain before riding back to Lodi. Rest Stops - There are benches to sit on, located intermittently at the side of the paved Bikeway for those that need to rest up. The intersections also provide a minute's pause before continuing on... Safety - I've biked the Bikeway every time I've ridden my Bicycle to Manteca and unlike most Parks which are just magnets to transients and the like, the only people I've seen are actual Walkers, Joggers, or Bicyclists. Even though I've never been there at night, the Bikeway seems to be lit at night with the numerous Light Poles that line the Bikeway. At the center of the Bikeway Path, about ten feet West of the Path itself, is a Phone which is encased in bright Yellow plastic attached to a pole which can be used for Emergencies - unfortunately, there's only one... and you have to know where it is... Convenience - A user can get off the path at any of the major intersections to get to Main Street within just a few blocks East. And there's many Parks and Baseball Fields within a few steps of the Bikeway. The Path, itself, is only ten feet wide, but the path is directly in the center of a strip of land about 20-30 yards wide that is essentially a narrow Park. It is immaculately landscaped and maintained... every time I rode through the Bikeway, it's been clean as a whistle. But not very many people use it, it seems. ***** - Joggers, Walkers *** - Bicyclists, Skaters - despite my criticism, though, I've used the Bikeway every time I've ridden to Manteca... maybe it's not so bad after all... Update: 07-30-2010 This year, I've noticed that there's evidence of Budget cutbacks in Manteca that results in reduced maintenance of the Bikeway... extensive weed and grass growth, reduced watering of the lawn portion of the Bikeway, and evidence of burrowing mammals taking over certain parts of the Bikeway. But the citizenry of Manteca in certain portions of the Bikeway, especially in portions that is adjoining to a residence backyard, the residents have used their own water supply to hydrate the lawn area! Cool!

The team helped us explore affordable options within our budget to accommodate all the very nice features included within our pool package. The total length of time from when construction began until we were given clearance to enter our sweet new pool and hot tub was ten weeks, which is expected for a combo such as this, I understand.

It takes you the to the parking entrance. There is a $5 parking fee for the day. Ask the park rangers where to go next when you pay for the parking.
