Came here today for the Spring Eggstravaganza at Los Rios Park and honestly it's a solid family…read morespot. Easy day trip from LA too. You can take Amtrak or Metrolink from Union Station and it literally drops you off right here in San Juan Capistrano. Makes it way less stressful than driving with kids. The event itself was well organized. Plenty of activities, egg hunts, puppet show, face painting, and enough space for kids to run around without it feeling too packed. Nice mix of younger kids and families just hanging out. What I liked most is the location. After the event, you can just walk around the Los Rios area. A bunch of restaurants and little spots nearby, so you can turn it into a full day. Feels chill, not overly commercial. Only thing is it can get a little crowded during the main egg hunt times, so timing matters. Earlier or in between sessions is better. Easy, fun, and low stress especially if you take the train. Would come back and make a whole day out of it.

After dealing with some medical issues, spending some time outside was needed. I decided to take a…read morebreather and meet up with my little nephew to visit the zoo and to play at the park after. My idea of playing is cheering him on while he slides down the slide and creating a fun atmosphere with the kids. Within minutes we had created a race between him and another little guy. Seeing kids having fun, in a safe, clean environment is crucial to development. Anything away from the screens is a win in my book. I really like this park. Seeing families and people of all ages here enjoying the park is really nice. The parking is free and accessible for those who needed ADA parking. There is access to restrooms, and the area is clean and devoid of trash, needles, etc.

It's fully paved with rubber surface. There is one play structure that's a very cool pirate ship. There's a slope with 1 infant swing and 2 saddle swings. There are 2 tables with seating. There are 2 benches by the play structure and 1 by the swings. However, they also have a palm tree lined "bench" on Golden Lantern side. This area provides some shade, otherwise, not shaded. It's near the ocean though so not very hot. It is gated and small so easy to keep an eye on kids. There are 2 trash cans and no water fountain. I recommend this park if your kids like pirate ships and for a relatively short play time.

My 18 month old still enjoyed the larger one and going up its three levels. Lots of slides. A climbing wall. Sand pit. Tables. And the ground is the cushy kind (not rocks and not mulch). They do movies at the park sometimes and the open lawn area has a small hill which makes it easy for viewing. The downside is that you can hear the freeway from here. And it smells pretty strongly of mosquito repellent (which is probably a pro and a con).
