There is a fee per day/per car ($15 as of this writing), so plan accordingly. While I didn't camp, I did see some stunning campsites right next to the water and in beautiful condition. Lots of great hiking spots, lots of folks fishing and overall a wonderful atmosphere. There's even a Frisbee golf course. Very clean and well-maintained. Parking is included in the entrance fee. Always check the website https://parks.sbcounty.gov/park/mojave-narrows-regional-park/ for current regulations and fees. Enjoy!

The staff was nice at the entrance and a worker asked us if we needed anything thrown away so clearly they care about keeping the park clean of trash. With that being said, it was still a decent amount of trash in the grassy areas but there were a lot of people there celebrating parties etc. my main gripe would be the lack of cleanliness of the restrooms. But once again, we came on a holiday weekend and there were a lot of people out.

However, you can still enjoy a moderate hike with family and less able folks. There really is no specific route when approaching this gem. Pick a direction and go for it, it's natures jungle gym. For the lighter hike you will want to park at the base near the BMX track. To the right of the water tower there is a beaten trail which is, if you choose, the hardest part of the hike. After you peak you have the option of adventuring through large boulders with small caverns or sticking off to the left for a more flat surface. I started my 3 little boys on this hike a couple years ago when they were 3 and 4. So that should give you an idea of the capability. Additionally, this is where I take my adult friends to put their money where their mouth is and push their limits. Great place! BBQ pits and small playground here too.

I decided to check out this park and dog park for the first time when I moved here this past…read moreJanuary, considering it's only 10 mins away from my house. The dog park looked kinda rough due to poop and debris being left everywhere and the small grass area was completely dead. It's mostly dirt compared to the other dog parks in Hesperia and Apple Valley. I don't really like how the gates don't have a secure latch. It's more of a push paddle handle, I just feel like it may be easy for the dogs to get out. Water fountains and poop bags are provided, but it'd be nice if people would actually use them. I came by again today and the DP looked much cleaner, they added another bench and the grass area is alive again. Just fyi, there are homeless that hang out there. Be cautious walking around the park areas due to debris/trash. There was also glass in the parking lot by the hall. I just wish the dog park had more grass.

Bring a blanket, picnic basket and enjoy a fun family evening. Trees are large enough to offer shade and playground equipment is well maintained. This is also the home to Little League and the baseball diamond was in top condition like the dugouts, bleachers and restroom facilities. Parking is ample and within walking distance to the playground. Grass (at time of my observation) was green and the park was welcoming. Richardson Park offers a delightful contrast to the desert surrounding this park.

It is nice and smooth so even my son with his small bike with training wheels was able to make it. It can get dusty of course, but after a light rain it is perfect. It is a straight line and you will see other people walking. A lot of people from Jess Ranch come here so they are older. Don't go too far if you don't want to walk all the way back. There are no cars allowed so you wont have to worry about your kids getting hit if they get ahead of you. Of course people use the riverbed for off-road use and who wouldn't. My kids love riding their quads out here because we live close to the riverbed. I always see people with their jeeps and side by sides. There are a lot of trails leading from the houses to the riverbed so you can tell who comes out here a lot. we have never been messed with by the police but we always have helmets and are a block from our house. It is a do at your own risk kind of thing.
