They had a zip line and something called a pump track. I have never seen a pump track at a public park before was absolutely stunned at how cool it was. There is also adult workout equipment and public restrooms.

It has good parking, a fence around it, water, and chairs. I am around this park every single day (in another area) and it is a good place to hang out.

We were passing through town from Watsonville to Santa Cruz and decided to stop. Both boys 10 & 13 had a blast. Bring a chair and an umbrella b/c it's in complete sun with absolutely no shade.

Wow! We went to Leo's Haven at Chanticleer Park and it's amazing. I wish this park was closer to…read morehome. It was just built in 2020 so everything is in great condition. It was built in partnership with Shane's Inspiration (if you've been to Griffith Park, it's the same organization). So, many of the park features are universally accessible. The playground area is spacious and a wonderful safe space for children. There are some climbing areas and slides for toddler age but the larger playground is great for preschool-elementary age. There isn't a ton of shade so bring hats and sunscreen! There are some benches scattered around the park and a few tables outside of the gated area. There is a private lot and street parking. They have bathrooms and they are fairly clean!

This has become one of the casualties of the last year…read more Currently this is the only no go area that I consider off limits to my students. While if you are jogging/biking through on your way to somewhere else it might be okay, this is not a spot that is safe to hang out in. This is especially true after dark. This area has been designated as a camping spot for those that have no options, and as such it has been more or less destroyed. There will be limited public services such as a police or fire presence and this space is controlled by ah, organized groups of independent businessmen. As such any violations of trade agreements are rigorously enforced. The duck pond is over. The disc golf course does not exist. If you must, come in daylight hours and tell a friend where you are. Do not bring your children here, and if you are looking to score drugs in santa cruz there are much safer places to do so. If you are not here doing business, avoid this park. And if you are doing business here be careful man. This is not a safe spot. For anyone

We recently camped here with our Boy Scout troop and reserved the Youth Overnight Campsite. The…read morecampsite is spacious, with plenty of room for our tents, flagpole, and Scout skill games. The kitchen area is well equipped with multiple picnic tables, BBQ grills, and plenty of trash cans, which made camp cleanup much easier. The restrooms have flush toilets and were very clean for a public facility. Park staff checked and cleaned the restrooms regularly throughout our stay. The park also offers many recreational facilities, including basketball courts, tennis courts, a frisbee golf course, and a volleyball net near the picnic area. The park ranger who checked us in was exceptionally friendly and helpful. She stopped by our campsite several times to make sure everything was going well and provided detailed information during check-in. The only minor drawbacks were that the campfire pit is located across from the campsite, and the hiking trails are relatively short.
