This park gets crazy busy on weekends and during the evening all week long so I try to avoid it…read moreunless it's before noon during the week because it's practically empty. Lots of colorful characters for sure so I tend to avoid it. But... my kid enjoys coming here and I don't always feel like driving all the way to friendship park. Do keep an eye on people that are parked. I have noticed lots of suspicious older men who just sit in their car for hours and watch as the children play. If you are lucky, you may even get a chance to see popping and locking dad. He dances in the middle of the playground while the kids (including his own) watch in amazement.

It was our first visit and we had a blast. Great little park in a nice neighborhood, includes a…read moresplash pad, a duck pond, big Ramada, bathrooms, basketball courts and a large play area, it is well maintained and seems safe, I haven't ever encountered any transients and it's nice place for pictures too with a waterfall on the pond. I like the fact that there is playground equipment that's age appropriate. Nice place to come to see geese, ducks and other birds all around. My friend went here and saw the "Burrowing owls". They named two of them:) There were about 5 of them all together. Just wish there was more shade near the water area, it's hot out there in the sun! Will definitely visit again. There is a group workout of Saturday mornings at 7 am that is great too.

I wish I didn't have to say this but please do not take your kids to the park at this location!!!…read more I had to unfortunately watch a elder man bathing himself as well as another woman and it just was horrible. I offered them our peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and got them water went to the store and got them some more food and snacks but I just highly recommend you don't let your kids play here or bring them here. It is overpopulated with homeless people and it's just a little bit nerve-racking because they aren't Going to move or get up for you if you ask them to or if they see you they just stay there laying on the benches and the splash pad is covered in dirty muck water!! :(

Played a league soccer game here. This review has nothing to do with the facilities. They are…read moremodern and seem to be well maintained. The fields, however, were complete garbage. In no way should they be used as a soccer pitch. There were random holes dug, the grass is patchy at best, and if the city was in charge of drawing the lines for the pitch the linesman must have been drunk. It was an embarrassing field to call a soccer pitch.

Gateway park packs a lot into the space. There is a small skate park, soccer fields, baseball…read morefields, playground, splash pad, dog park and restaurant. Park has lots of shade around the play area. Sun sails are on top of the playground itself. Sails didn't provide much shade early in the morning. Temperature was in the low 70's, so we didn't mind. Play structures were in good condition. My youngest enjoyed playing there. The splash pad is located next to the park. I could see the area getting very busy on hot days. Not as much shade around the splash area. Lots of shaded parking around the park. Parking is shared with the police department and YMCA. There was still plenty of parking while we were there. The fields are also utilized by The Y for their sports programs. The only reason to not give the park 5 stars is the amount of trash. We were there on a Saturday morning. There before any games, before any other people really came. The trash cans were overflowing with trash. There was also lots of trash around the parking lot. Otherwise, Gateway is a wonderful community park.

I have been coming here for a very long time. The city does an amazing job of keeping the park…read morebenches clean of graffiti, the grass mowed, trashcans emptied, and area void of vagrants. Since it is next to a grade school, this park is even more noticeable to the public. My friend's and I used to meet up every morning to visit with Steve Koger who was a resident of the nursing home across the street. Steve came to the park daily for 15 years until he passed this year. He was a park icon and the park should probably be named after him.

Walked a couple dogs I was house sitting all around for 90 minutes. Framed by beautiful houses, this park had other dog walkers, people eating lunch and some reading books on the benches. There were swings and really interesting jungle gym type structures for kids and a community pool. It has a swirled sidewalk running thru it as well. On a beautiful 75 degree Phoenix December day, this park added beauty and serenity to our week! Hope you get to visit!

Definitely missing the sunny Phoenix weather being that I'm back in NYC. I came to this park during…read moremy visit here over the recent Christmas and New Year holiday to work out and bring my niece and nephew to play. The park has the basic obstacle course for kids, equipped with slides, swings ( only toddler swings), monkey bars, and a see-saw. Too bad the swings were only for toddlers;my niece and nephew are beyond that age lol. The palm trees were awesome just because they're palm trees. But given that it's Phoenix, most of the grass was brown. I happened to find an area that was shaded and had lush green grass. Overall the park was clean, free of debris, and the lawn is well kept. It's also walking distance from my family's home. While it doesn't measure up to Prospect Park or even Central Park, it gets the job done.

We came here many 2020 mornings to let my son practice his bike riding. We love the big, empty…read moregrassy space. And when he was ready to take a break, there are tons and tons of large shady trees to rest under. Since this is during the pandemic, we didn't get to make use of the playground, although it looks wonderful and like it has a lot of fun things to play on. But even without the use of the playground, all the big empty space is perfect for soccer, a shady picnic, or tai chi (which we've been lucky enough to observe several people practicing here). The biggest negative? No restrooms. Otherwise, wonderful safe park to enjoy.

Oh Royal Palm park.... I remember when this park had the coolest tallest slide when I was a kiddo!!…read moresomeone broke both their arms falling off so they took it out. (Totally understandable) the park is huge and surrounding they have little workouts you can do on uneven bars and random little workout areas. The playground was just recently redone about 4 years ago and is still looking pretty good! This is a great location to have sports teams come practice (field sports) although I am bummed they took the volleyball courts out. They defiantly need some sand courts ASAP. I agree with a pervious yelper that its kinda crazy they don't have a restroom... Honestly I didn't really notice until I read that review because I live pretty close so it's never been a problem but i can totally see her point if you have young children. A few years ago this park was a little sketchy when it came to homeless hanging out, but now they have police that come by pretty often to make sure there's noting fishy going on. Now I feel much more comfortable going for a run alone. This park is perfect to play frisbee golf ("frolf") or have an outrageous water balloon fight! It's also a great place to take your well-trained dog to play some catch... And don't worry if they make a doodie the park as a poop-bag dispenser. Oh writing this review makes me have flashbacks of the grapefruit wars Sunnyslope would have vs Washington years ago....

Lovely local park. One late January afternoon, around 5:15, I brought my grandchildren along with…read moretheir scooter and slider bike. We found only one other vehicle in the parking lot upon arrival, but it quickly filled up within 45 minutes. The kids enjoyed riding along the winding pathways and had a great time on the playground, particularly the exciting slides. Eventually, they kicked off their shoes and socks and happily spent time building sand cakes and piles. It was quite a challenge to convince them to leave, finally heading back home only after the sun had set below the horizon.
