Came at 9pm on a Monday night. Super packed!! I haven't been back since I was little. Great…read moreaddition of the skatepark! The park and trail is super clean with trash cans everywhere. Many dogs walking around too so super pet friendly with trash bags and bins. There are 2 big playgrounds and a fitness center as well. There's also a little rose garden! Of course Rosemead had to have roses haha. Parking is convenient either street parking or parking in the basketball court or swimming pool lots. There are couple public restrooms open at night. The area feels very safe and well lit. I saw people dancing, baseball and soccer teams practicing and many people going out on their daily walks. I'd imagine it would be a great place for bbq as well during the day. Little details matter. Great job city of rosemead. Bugs and mosquitos love me but I managed to not get a single bite!! The gazebo is powered by solar which is pretty cool. Water fountains are dog friendly. I can't think of any improvements haha keep up the good work!

This is my second go-to park when Almansor Park is a further distance from me when I would like to…read moreget a good walk in. I enjoy walking at the park and I appreciate a padded walking trail at the park. I haven't tried walking here during the mornings, but overall at night, it is decently lit. The track has several curves so I don't know if it is that suitable for running although I have seen runners on the track before. There's also some exercise equipment along the track as well. Other amenities for the park- -swimming pool, skate park, basketball court, soccer field, baseball field, picnic benches Overall, I usually would prefer Almansor for walking/ running but if I can't get to Almansor, I would prefer this as an alternative park to get a walk in.

If you are a Rosemead local, then you must have been to this park before. It is a typical…read moreneighborhood park with a playground, open grass fields, indoor basketball courts, tennis courts, picnic shelters, a dog park, a seasonal Splash Zone water play area, and more. There are also temporary pickleball courts set up during certain hours of every day. Since these courts are not permanent, they are not great. The portable nets are flimsy and the area is way too cramped for the amount of people that visit. My main complaint with this park is that it is often pretty dirty. Although there are plenty of trash cans all over the park, I still always see litter scattered throughout the park floor, making it not an ideal place to walk my dogs. In addition, the park is super muddy whenever it rains. The park tends to get super busy on weekends, with all sorts of people coming to exercise, have parties, attend kids' sports games, or for events. Parking spots may completely fill up on weekends, while there will be plenty of open spots on weekdays.

Visitation Rights: Been to this park countless of times. I primarily played basketball and tennis…read more Nowadays, I've reconnected with the park and play pickleball here. Park Offerings: 1) Playgrounds for the kids 2) Baseball field 3) Indoor basketball/Volleyball courts in their gymnasium. Just have to find out when it's open gym for those relative sports. 4) Tennis courts and Pickleball courts. For pickleball, there's specific times to play Monday through Sunday: 5pm to 930pm (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) and 8am to 1pm (Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday). Just have to be mindful of the hours that they have it. The city sets up the nets for everyone to use. They're not permanent courts. 5) Splash Zone/Swimming Pool. You'll have to be mindful of the times and rates. 6) Dog Park: Located next to the tennis courts. 7) Picnic Tables/Gazebo 8) Fitness Zones: You'll see some manual outdoor exercise machines 9) Restrooms: They're nice. Location/Parking: Located on Emerson between San Gabriel and Del Mar.. Parking can be found on the street or in their parking lot. Ambiance/Decor: Go outside and touch grass for a bit. It's like a escape for a bit. Garvey Park For Thought: Don't mind coming back to touch grass. I'll primarily be playing pickleball courts when I have time.

I guess I didn't really explore this park as much I should have during my first visit, as my memory…read moredid not recall how big the park actually is. And perhaps I was just bothered by how inconspicuous the park entrance is: it's a gate that does not immediately look like the entrance to a park, which is how I missed it the first time I visited over a decade ago. During my recent second visit, I came back with a better appreciation for parks and birds. I did not expect to find any birding lifers here, but I in fact found four in one day. I heard the Green Heron before I saw it, and photographed it without realizing what it was. I just thought it was another Black-Crowned Night Heron, but boy was I delighted to find out later when I was reviewing my photos that it was a Green Heron lifer. The park appears to know it's a great spot for birding as there is signage indicating possible seasonal bird encounters. Perhaps I should stop talking about birds, but I can't help it. Also, "Peck" Road? Birds are the point. It's a large park with a delightful amount of nature to get immersed in. I can't wait to come back for a third visit!

A friend of mine introduced me to this hidden gem a year ago for birding. I recently returned and…read morefell in love with it all over again. This place is a birder's paradise, with its large lakes and blooming flowers, inviting many bird species. I've counted over 20 different species in just a few hours of walking a whole loop. My only complaint is that it was closed the one day I made the long drive out, on a day that it wasn't supposed to be closed. But thankfully there is a cut out on the gate to the side so you can still walk in. You'll just have to park on the street instead of drive in and park inside. So this is just something to watch out for - random closings.

One of my favorite parks in the area--…read more I originally heard of this park after a recommendation on where to host a baby shower/ park picnic. We ended up renting a large picnic shelter and it is actually in high demand during the summer time (rented out in June for an August date). Despite a very warm day (mid-high 90s) the shelter kept us relatively cool. The kids loved the space-themed playground and the large shelter can host up to 180 or so people whereas the smaller shelter can host up to 50 or so people. (+): experience with renting out the shelter- benches were clean, employees were nice (+): amenities of the park- tennis courts, large walking area, multiple parking lots, basketball courts Overall, I would come here again and also consider renting out the park shelters.

Live Oak Park is one of the most popular parks among residents locally and visitors that reside in…read moreother cities. They have a designated walkway for people who are running/walking, basketball courts, tennis courts, pickleball courts, playground, and spaceship in the middle. It's newly renovated which makes the quality a lot smoother than before. Restrooms are available as well near the courts and also near the playground area. Parking is plentiful in parking lot but can fill up quick. Street parking is also available for free. There's 8 pickleball courts, which fills up quick these days. You can queue up with your paddles when it's full. The pickleball community here is great, on the weekends there's people who manage it voluntarily which is nice for newcomers. Overall, a great renovated park, very clean, friendly people, and spacious.
