I was on my way to an estate sale and needed a bathroom quick, so I clicked the closest restroom on…read moreApple maps and it brought me here. Thanks to that app, I found this place and since I was already there I take a short walk, and it ended up being a nice surprise. The trail was really clean with some nice views along the way. It's paved, so it's an easy place for a walk or a bike ride without having to worry about rough terrain. There were plenty of people out enjoying it as well. There's a good amount of parking along the main road, which made it easy to stop by.

It's a long walk, on concrete, very shaded, and next to a beautiful reservoir where we get all our…read moreclean drinking water (after passing the reservoir, you basically only see trees). The main con is that you have to turn back since there's no loop (about 6 miles one-way), so you have to figure out where your stopping point is, otherwise the trail spans across multiple cities (north entrance in Millbrae, southern entrance in San Mateo). No pets allowed. There are restrooms at the beginning of the trail, and in the middle after going a good amount of distance. There were a lot of wildlife to be seen, like random families of deer, lizards, turkey couples, and even turkey vultures. In some puddles along the path, there were newly-hatched tadpoles. If you want a peaceful, quiet, long and shaded walk or bike ride, this is a solid choice. You will run into other groups along the way, as it is a popular and well-maintained trail. Sawyer Camp Trail's purpose is pretty niche, though, as I'd much prefer a path that loops or an option for elevated terrain.

My favorite outdoor pool in the peninsula!…read more I've been going to Burlingame Aquatics for many years now - I use to even swim competitively! The pool operates as both short (25 yards) and long course (50 meters) depending on the day and time. If it is short course, there are about 20 lanes, but if it is long course, it is usually less lanes due to classes/ other programs being held at BAC. I've dropped into lap swim ($9) but I started to opt in for their 10 day pass which is $85 ($5 savings). I also just learned there is a monthly unlimited pass for $75 which is a great deal if you do plan to come in more than 10x a month. Check out their website for hours and if there will be less lanes due to classes. I love going during the day since you'll get a nice tan afterwards!

I have no complaints about the pool itself; it is truly world-class. However, shouldn't there be…read moreproper changing cubicles where one can comfortably change clothes after swimming? There ought to be at least two. We go there to swim, not as prison inmates; we shouldn't be forced to change in an open area or a toilet stall. In my opinion, this is undignified. If you cannot provide even two changing cubicles, that reflects poorly on you. ? I am very unhappy about this situation and expect you to provide a solution. Thank you.

After picnicking at Robert E. Woolley Peninsula Park, I decided to walk off my filling meal while…read morechecking out the boardwalk here. The actual wooden "boardwalk" is a very short bridge crossing over the lake, but there's a paved pathway that continues on both sides, with a rocky shoreline, plant life, and lovely lake views. And there's a fishing pier stretching over the water at the park as well. Simple and serene, there's plenty to appreciate here.
