Old park with traditional activities such as tennis, fishing, playground for the kids, and BBQing.

9/7/16 We came to Sunset Park for a stroll, to catch Pokémon and just hang out. I loved this place; it is one of the first parks in Vegas that actually reminded me of NY parks because of all the trees, grass, and the huge pond. I think I might have just found my zen park in this desert city read more

Easy going park, not much to do but sit and relax and let the kids play in the playground. There's some sitting area, however it's a bit dirty but you'd already assume because of the ducks. Enjoyed it a lot for how small of a man made lake it is. read more

This park has so much to offer. From fishing to trails to volley-ball to a great disc golf course. We also play WAKA kickball weekly at Sunset. It's spacious & pleasant. I've spent some of my favorite days in Las Vegas at this park with my dog (: read more

Sunset Park, an oldie, but a goodie! It has recently gotten a nice facelift and it is looking good! I used to come here all of the time when I worked near by for lunch. It was so-so at best back then. I was just out here a few days ago and it is really great now! Why? Well... 1. The new water play area! There is so much water here and it is doing from all directions, so you will get wet...and enjoy every second! This is the best water play area I have been to in town. Simply great! 2. Lots of new playground stuff! There is a completely new play ground near the water area that is a blast. There are a few more scattered throughout the park as well. I didn't hit them all, but the ones I saw looked fun. 3. So many courts! There are a ton of basketball and volleyball courts around. I doubt you would even have to wait to grab a court, since there are that many! 4. It seems like they have re-seeded or re-sodded a lot of areas. I remember there used to be a lot of bad grass areas, but this last time everywhere looked great. You have got to have nice grass at the park! 5. There's a lake! And you can fish there! And it is even stocked regularly. So much fun for the kids, even if I can't catch a darn thing here to save my life! So the moral of the story is, if you have kids, go check out Sunset Park, especially the new water play area because you will have a blast! read more

I used to frequent this park to ball, bbq, run and train with my martial arts group prior to the remodel and damn what an amazing job they've done! This is one of Vegas' cultural hubs as they provide numerous areas for families and events to go down. Trails for days, a splash pad for the kids, basketball courts, baseball field, fishing and then some! read more

This is an absolutely beautiful park with plenty of room. It is just a damn shame that it is ruined and squandered by the few. There are a few people who feel that they are above the laws and rules, procedures and protocol to the park. The rules apply to everybody especially those who decide to bring small dogs to a large area for large dogs. Is it too much to ask for people to just follow the rules? The rules of he park are very clear and has very clear postings. It is in clear English, black-and-white text! 35 lbs & under go in a separate SMALL dog area. 35lbs and over go in the LARGE dog park. ALSO- PICK UP YOUR DOGS SHIT! Hilary for PRISON 2016 read more

Cute park that is huge. We went looking for the dog park and ended up walking around the pond.

This park is NOT safe. We used to walk the trail here every morning and it was very pleasant but boy has this place rapidly declined and it is not safe anymore. Came here in the a.m. and while walking the trail a transient man (strung out on who knows what) popped out of the bushes scaring the heck out of us. He was hunting rabbits to eat EWWW!! There were A LOT of transient people lingering around, some sleeping on the grass, some clearly stoned out of their minds with litter around them. I felt extremely unsafe and will never ever return. This IS NOT okay and Clark County needs to get a handle on this.....CALIFORNIA HERE WE COME! read more

My review is only for the new dog park off of Warm Springs. I had been to the previous Sunset Dog Park once before the renovations, I was totally turned off by this trip that I never went back. Not only was the park not well kept but they people were rude and didn't watch their dogs. This dog park has TOTALLY changed for the better since the renovations last year, it's probably the best dog park in the city. There is a enough room for the dogs to run without feeling like you can't control them if needed. There are plenty of places for dog's best friend to sit down and even a shelter over a group of tables for shade. I have probably been to this park 25 in the last two months and have never had a problem with the people or the dogs. Everyone is friendly and picks up after their dogs. I would definitely recommend checking out the new dog park if you haven't been in a while. read more

I am a fanatical dog lover. You know, the kind where my dogs are human to me, they eat only organic food and drink bottled water? Okay, not bottled water ALL the time. You know me, I'm that kind of pet owner. Well, when it comes to taking and socializing my huma..dogs, they get the best when I come to Sunset dog park. This place is clean, the animals are non-aggressive with responsible owners always watching and picking up after them. It's exactly the kind of dog park you always hope you'll find when you move to a new place. There is grass (grass! in Vegas!) and lots and lots of room to run. There are always a lot of different breeds with a personality to suit even the most timid dog. My Gatsby is very much that dog and he is always running around with a friend. I love it. There are bowls and bowls of fresh water sitting around everywhere so don't worry if you forget your own. Also, they are clean and non-scuzzy and I never mind my pups drinking out of them. The people that go there actually seek you out to talk to you. Almost like a little welcoming committee. I'm always surprised by how friendly and open everyone is. Dog lovers are awesome people. By the way, there are always several ways to clean up after your dog; they have plastic bags and scoops and pans, plus if those aren't around (which they always have been for me) then someone always has an extra that they're willing to share. Parking is plentiful and it's just a really beautiful park. You can see the mountains from every side which is just stunning at sunset. You can trust that your dogs will have an awesome time here and be safe and happy! read more

Took my two dogs to the small dog park on a saturday, and it's by far their favorite dog park ever. If your dog loves other dogs, this place is filled with them and everyone was friendly and respectful to each other. It's the first park we've found that was completely secure, which I needed cause my dogs are some part hound and will run right out if they see something in the distance. read more

One of the largest parks in the city, this is a pretty cool place to run or play basketball. You can usually find a serious game of basketball here. I like to watch them play....there are some good players here, nothing like Venice Beach or Rucker Park, but for Vegas it's not bad for a pickup game. During the Christmas Season, they use to have a holiday lights festival here, but that was discontinued in 2010 due to the economy.....that's too bad, it was a nice place to bring your kids.

As a park, it's great. 5 Stars in that aspect. Lots of water buckets, kiddie pool if your dog is a water fanatic, good space to run around, well maintained. Most of the the patrons are pretty chill, but my roommate and I have had run ins with some rude patrons, and let's just say it was enough to make us not want to bring our dogs to this park anymore. I've been screamed at by a mother who had her toddler with her at the large dog park because my dog was running near her, well, maybe your toddler shouldn't be at a park with a bunch of 50+ lbs dogs free running. Common sense people. This park gets pretty crowded since it's so well kept. Yes it's true some people allow their dogs to walk off leash from the parking lot to the dog park. I don't mind it, but I can understand how it's an issue for others. People need to just be mindful. I don't mean to be so negative with this park. Can't help what kind of people end up going. Most of the time it's been a great experience. read more

Sunset Park is massive and I have not yet had the opportunity to explore the full scope of it. I did, however, take a nice walk through the dunes area of the south side of the park. It provides a nice escape from the city and allows you to immerse yourself into the scrub brush of a not so deserted desert. There are some informational plaques around the are that teach of the ecology and geography of the area. And the local fauna come out to greet you. Well, rabbits and lizards are seen but usually running away from the likes of man. Still, this is a cool section of park to check out. I look forward to coming back to traverse the north side where the lake and park proper are. I would have on the morning of my inital hike but it was windy and my back was hurting. I will be back though. Sunset Park is worth checking out further. read more

Every year my family, my sister's fiancés family and his best friend's family all take a trip to Vegas to play golf, try our luck on the tables and machines, do LOTS of eating and watch a couple of shows. It's been a tradition that when we arrive in LV, we picnic at Sunset Park before settling into our hotel (plus we usually fly in super early therefore we can't check-in until later anyway). Sunset Park is super close to McCarren International Airport and I love how I can picnic with my family and friends and also watch all these different planes land one by one. I enjoy watching planes land and take off; I can watch it all day! Every time I come here, I see how well kept the park is. There are a few people playing basketball while others are working out or walking their dogs. The tables are clean and there are large trees for shading. There are a good amount of trash bins out so you're not constantly looking for one, which comes in handy when you're having a picnic! The restrooms are clean as well. It's a pretty big park but we always picnic closer to runway of the airport. Sunset Park is an awesome park. I'm always excited to come here with my family! read more

As an avid dog lover, I'm always trying to find the best places to take my baby and Sunset Dog Park has become one of them. Here's some of the things that make this park great: Small and large dog run (under 35lbs and over 35lbs) Very clean and well maintained Lots of water bowls (always freshly filled) Fresh grass Seems like the dog owners are always nice and friendly here as well. This is definitely the best dog park I've found in LV! read more

I don't know about you, but where I grew up on the East coast there were tons of huge parks with playgrounds, picnic areas, sporting areas and more. I love them. Sunset Park is WONDERFUL! After the most recent re-development I have to say, it's only gotten better. The dog park area (Warm Springs and Eastern) is in excellent shape and provides the dogs large areas to run and play. I've encountered only the nicest dog owners with a mind for responsibility. There are 3 dog park areas that rotate based on the maintenance schedule and keep the large dogs and small dogs separated. The new walking/jogging path has been my favorite since it opened a few years ago. Beautiful desert landscaping that makes you feel like you've left the Vegas valley for a quiet, peaceful desert oasis. Forget the gym, this is my place to work out! Then there's the pond area which has very recently re-opened to include new places to relax, have parties, run in the grass or walk the pond trail and enjoy the gorgeous weather. The boat launch looks like it was taken right out of NYC's Central Park. There is now an amphitheater with ample seating and grassy areas to enjoy. We've had our own spontaneous dance parties on the small stage which is a blast! Last but certainly not least, the new playground on the Sunset side (just south of the Volleyball courts) is AMAZING! The entire playground looks like a tree house so the kids can climb up faux tree trunks and have a blast playing in, on and around the trees and leaves. This park also just opened with a water feature or splash pad. This is my favorite part! Tall leaves spraying cool water and so much more! YOU CAN EVEN RENT BIKES, FRISBEE GOLF EQUIPMENT AND MORE (in the building just to the northwest of the tree park). oh yeh...and a new Frisbee Golf course. LOVES IT! Definitely recommended for some fun with the family, a date or some friends. read more

What a pretty park! Very big park with lots to do and lots of parking spaces. We stopped by to just relax and watch the ducks play. They get their own totem head thing and a little island. How awesome. But the grass in that area is filled with their poo. eww. They have a little pool that would be filled during the warmer months, they have volleyball courts, and I believe a lake for fishing, and the usual park stuff. Bonus: so much awesome dining options right in the area. read more

It's not Central Park, but it's the closest thing we got. A great place if you want to escape the Strip or suburbia. I come here primarily for the walking trail that circumvents the man-made lake. The trail has widened and lengthened so it's not congested when people are jogging. There are workout stations sprinkled all over, including a sit-up bench, monkey bars and a chin-up bar. The trail isn't totally flat, there are little inclines; also, there are cross roads on the trail, so it doesn't become so boring. From beach volleyball to softball, you can play most sports. The park is well maintained and they added new infrastructure which looks really nice. It would be nice if there was a desert flower garden nearby, just to add some color to the park. So come all you fitness aficionado's, families, and people who are still sticking to their New Year's resolutions, because all is well here. read more

Sunset has the best dog park on this side of town. I have a few that are closer, more convenient, and not as nice around me. When Momo is in need of some socializing, or ignoring other dogs to sniff, I take her to this one. The areas are large. More importantly, they are grassy. Instead of kicking up dirty with every high speed chase, these dogs can run on soft grass. Once they are tired, there are plenty of water buckets and comfortable places to flop down. All the owners are responsible and keep an eye out for their kids. I never have to worry about Momo getting into too much trouble. I keep a close eye just in case she sniffs the wrong butt, but almost all of the other canines have returned the gesture. There are three pens that are kept in rotation for maintenance purposes with one being closed at a time. The small and large dogs have their own space. Luckily, because Momo is way too curious about those she can fit in her mouth. read more

This is a great dog park! I had been warned not to go there, especially at night, because violence was rising. My dogs, husband and I have never had any issues here. In fact, we were pleasantly surprised with how nice this park is. We really enjoy the trail that goes around the pond in the center of the park. We also like to let them run around in the fenced dog areas. It's a huge park and there's always some kind of activities going on there. Also very fun to people watch here! We'll be back with our dogs, for sure! read more

My hubs and I wanted to go for a walk in this lovely winter weather with our lil' one so we decided to go to Sunset Park. It isn't our first time to Sunset Park, but it was our first time heading to where they have a pond... that's what you call it right? LOL. This little area you can even go fishing. I'm still wondering what you can catch, but I'm letting all my fellow Yelpers know what you can do there. I did see signs that you need a fishing permit if you are older than 12? Anyhow, this area also lets all you boaters (toy of course) to enjoy the water along with the ducks or geese, or both. Next time I got some stale bread I'm coming here to feed the ducks with my daughter, or not, I saw lots of bread floating in the water which is a shame. Sunset Park really does have it all, with all the many different courts, the many different walkways for walking, running, bike riding, etc, dog areas, children players, I mean, how awesome! read more

I may be a little biased since this park is within walking distance of my home, but it's a pleasant place to visit early, with wonderful sunrises, with plenty of ducks and geese, and rarely much larger birds like blue herons. read more

Great park for so many different activities. I thoroughly enjoy their walking trails as well as their tennis courts. It's a huge park with plenty of space for so many different things. It's a great place to soak in the sun and enjoy some well-needed time outside from time to time. I don't come as often as I would like since it's not in my neighborhood, but I have often met friends in the area to partake in the walking tracks or to play some games of tennis. They are well lit, so it's a good place to come in the evening or night as well. read more

This dog park really is about as good as it gets for the Las Vegas area. Large grass area for the dogs and plenty of places for humans to gather. There are (3) sections to the park, two of which are open at any given time. They rotate the closed section so it is rehabilitated and not over used. The two open sections are divided by dog weight (under/over 35lbs)...so that is great. My three American Eskimos go crazy at the mention of the word "Dog Park", so that's what's most important to me...they love it. I've always been impressed by the quantity and quality of the other dogs and their owners at this park. The area is large enough that there could literally be 50+ dogs there and it is not the least bit crowded. One other thing I love about this dog park is that it is extremely well lit and open until 11pm. read more

There's no one to enforce the rules that are posted about how big or small dogs can be for each area. People bring big dogs into the small dog area knowing it could start a fight or someone could get hurt. read more

I used to love this dog park. I have been going every day for 6 years with my dogs. This review is really about the homeless people problem at the park. There are just so many of them everywhere.... I don't even feel comfortable going into the bathroom. I know they can't control their situations but I'm mainly just talking about the crazy druggy ones. Just be careful. But if you can go to a different dog park, I recommend it. Last week a homeless dude stood behind my car yelling about God knows what and wasn't letting me leave. I eventually just started backing up and he walked away and me alone. I didn't try to engage him at all. Just sat in my car with the windows up. Yesterday I tried to used the restroom and a MAN was in the woman's bathroom and oh god did it smell, and when he left I didn't even walk inside the bathroom entrance and could smell something quiet foul... I'm sorry if this review turns some people off but I am in my third trimester and very cautious of my surroundings and sensitive to smells. And I no longer feel safe going to this dog park because of the immense homeless population. read more

So I want to clarify that I am only rating the dog park, not the park as a whole. i did not spend much time outside of the dog park. I was visiting from out of town and brought Fido with me and wanted a place that she could get some good run time in, instead I found a park loaded with potential disasters. I showed up and the park was playing host to 5 Pit Bulls, 1 Rottweiler and 1 Chow. Now I know that you cant stereo type these breeds but at least one of these dogs were involved in one of the three "aggressive altercation" I witnessed in 15 minutes of being at the park. Being an owner of a smaller Aussie I became very wary that my dog would be on the losing end of one of these altercations so we headed back to the hotel. This park has potential to be a very nice park if the dogs and their owners are on best behavior. The park makes fresh water readily available and is on the bigger size of the dog parks I have been to. I did give it an extra star for the small dog area. There were numerous smaller dogs in there playing very well and had a real natural setting in there with small boulders for the lil guys to play on. If you do decide to pay this park a visit just keep a close eye on your dog (and everyone else's because they don't). read more

We've visited this park a handful of times. Once for a company party, about a dozen times for their really large and awesome dog park, and 3 times for fishing. The park's great for all the activities you'd like to do there: frisby, BBQ-ing, fishing, jogging, tennis, beach volleyball, etc. I've even seen some kids karate-competing (supervised). The BBQ areas are really clean, that I've seen so far anyways. Never used those, but maybe one day I will. Fishing: We caught 2 fishes there the past 3 times. They stock their pond/lake monthly in the summer time with fishes such as trout, channel catfish, carp, etc. From sizes of tiny ones that are the size of my pinky - to ones that are 10lbs+. That's really big, according to some. And don't be turned off by the sound of "pond/lake". This pond is big enough for a beginners to intermediate, or just about anyone who wants to catch an hour or two after work or something. The good thing about fishing at Sunset Park is that their fish is clean. If you don't eat the fish you catch, that's fine, but we do. The water there is filtered for harmful chemicals and such. It's not the cleanest (actually it IS the cleanest public park pond/lake I have ever seen in my life), but then again if you've ever owned fishes, you know that unkept fish tanks and ponds can get dirty REAL quick. So it's not bad how well Sunset Park keeps the pond/lake clean. By the way, to fish here, you need a fishing license (like everywhere..) and a trout stamp if you plan on fishing and keeping/taking home trouts. Update: I don't know why Sunset Park's pond hasn't been cleaned in over a month, but the bird shit really need to go!! read more

This is a huge park! Here you'll find a small lake (man-made), running trails, playgrounds, Frisbee golf, volleyball courts, dog parks, and much more, even a swimming pool (which I haven't tried yet). I like coming here with family and friends as a relaxing, fun, free thing to do in Vegas. read more

If you like to speed walk, run, walk a pet, stroll with your child or whatever you want to make of this park..I really like it. I only saw 1 part of it speed walking a few laps with a friend of mine. It's perfect for beginners and novices alike. So put on your walking or runnings shoes and get out there. It's nice to see Las Vegas providing an outdoor athletic are for people who don't want to stay couped up in their homes, stuck working out in a gym or walking around a school track. This is free and it's a great option. Get to steppin' Las Vegas!!!! read more

I was debating between 4 and 5 stars, and since I can't really think of anything that this park is missing, I decided on the higher rating. This is a not so hidden gem in the Valley. It's basically on the border between Henderson and Las Vegas and is easily accessible from most areas of town. I've played in softball leagues here a few times, and they were always well organized and fun. There are tons of sports fields and all are well maintained. Whether you are in to softball/baseball, soccer, volleyball, running or frisbee (disc) golf - this place has it all. It's been years since I've played frisbee golf, but I hear it's a nice course. And one of only a few in town. There are at least 3 walking/running trails that surround the park, and since there is also a dog park, this is a great place to bring your furry friends as well. I was here most recently for a baby shower and we set up camp at the "Hickory" picnic area. This was right by the "lake," which made it a nice spot. It was also near a large parking area, but quite a few of our guests got lost trying to find us and ended up on the other side of the park. I was unaware that the city regularly stocks fish in the lake and there were quite a few people out with their poles. I was told that you HAVE to have a fishing license and that park rangers will confiscate your fish if you are found not to have the proper permit. Something to keep in mind. Overall, there is something for everyone. The park is well maintained and has a great layout. read more

** Review for the dog park ** Apparently I came after they had the big renovation, & this has to be the best dog park in Vegas because of how large they designed it. My dog has so much room & more to run to his heart's content! The only drawback is unfortunately my dog contracted kennel cough by some means (whether drinking out of the puddles on the ground or from another dog). I think with the new expansion of the dog park they should also include a tip sign somewhere on the fences about being responsible owners & not bringing sick dogs to the park where others can contract it. (I know sometimes these things happen out of nowhere, but it would definitely help!) Otherwise my dog loves it here, the people are friendly, and people actually pick up after themselves. ** Review for overall Sunset Park ** Their renovations are making it such a lovely place to get away from it all & relax for the day :) I often come here with my dog on some sunny afternoons to walk around on the trails, or just stop underneath a tree to sit & enjoy the day. It is definitely HUGE, with areas for volleyball, biking, soccer, you name it! I don't have kids so I'm not too sure how the playgrounds work, but I'm sure there's plenty of room there in order for anyone to really enjoy their day! read more

HUGE park! Best place to practice all your sports from running, basketball, volleyball, tennis, soccer, football, softball, baseball, and even have your bootcamp classes here. They have courts for all of the sports above and wide open spaces to set up your own court. It is a dog friendly park and there is actually a lot of shade. They have restrooms when nature calls and when it gets dark at night, the lights come on over the court and field areas. I've seen many groups come out here to BBQ, practice, and play all kinds of sports. You will never see this park empty. Lacks the 5th star due to my only issue; lots of potholes in the grassy areas. This has caused some of my teammates on my soccer team some injuries from running into them. These need to get fixed ASAP!. read more

We bring our 2yr old daughter to this park all the time! She loves it! There's a beautiful pond where all the birds, ducks, swans, etc. are and we bring some bread and our girl's eyes light up as she feeds them the bread. There's also a park nearby the pond which has plenty of slides and swings. There's also picnic areas and places where you can bbq. read more

Our softball team plays here.. it's a great, well cared for park! I also like that you can drink beer here. Ok well I'm not sure on that, but I do know I drink beer here so let's assume it's ok ! Negative star for the traffic jam that ensues between 6 PM games ending and 8 PM games starting. read more

First off, the park is huge! I came here without looking at the park map thinking I'd be able to find the sand vball courts easily. Not so. I drove around to the baseball area (& there's more than one), then walked across the park (20min or so) to find what I was looking for. Sand volleyball: there are six courts here, played on two. The one closest to the gazebo was like playing on gravel, I'm pretty sure I got cut up from that. The second was closer to the major road (but had a large tree & grass buffer area, so you don't need to worry about your volleyball flying into traffic) and it was puuuurrrfect. Soft, fine sand and lots of it! Felt comfortable diving on that court, not so much for the gravel like one. Played vball on a weekday night in September and place was packed. Had to wait a bit for a court to open up. Near the courts there were lots of covered benches and tables for picnics, etc. lots of families, and there was a kickball game going on nearby too. I would feel totally safe bringing my kids there to play and hang out. Generally, outside the actual fields/courts, the park is not lit well at night (there was a lot of walking areas & picnic areas that were totally dark). The playgrounds also weren't lit at night, but I still saw kids and families on the equipment late at night (~10pm). But I felt somewhat safe walking around because 1) I had my dog with me, and 2) the other park goers were friendly. I'd recommend for the walking areas to be better lit at night for safety and so you can see where you're walking! Dog park: there are three well kept & large areas with lots of grass, and covered sitting areas with benches and picnic tables. Also plenty of dog water fountains to fill up your dogs bowl. There are two "small dogs" areas and one large dog area. Wish there was a mix of large and small dogs instead of two small dog areas, bc my retriever is big but prefers playing with the littler ones! read more
