[Review #831] 2024-032…read more I forgot that we visited Paradise Park years ago... I think it was a walking field trip from H's daycare/preschool: Leap & Bound Academy? My husband wanted to come back & visit a different park, & this one has some different & interesting play structures, including Saturn, train, & submarine. It does have your standard playground equipment; monkey bars, slide, swings, etc. that separates the big kids from the little ones for safety. The park has a large grassy field for frisbee, soccer, or just running around playing tag. And plenty of trees for shade! The park seems dog-friendly as we spotted several dog walkers during our playtime. There's a shaded picnic area for you to hold a small party, or hang out with friends; with picnic tables & BBQ grills spread out through the park. With the lack of food traffic, the BBQ grills & picnic tables could used some maintenance (rusted grills) &/or clean-up (cobwebs on grills, bird poop on tables). There's a tennis court somewhere; I haven't been but another reviewer posted a pic of the courts. And restrooms are available... again, don't know where but a couple reviewers mentioned they're near the tennis courts; however, there's no stall doors & they're dirty. Oh no! There's no parking lot that I'm aware of, but there's enough street parking around the park's perimeter. Not our ideal park due to its distance from home, but a fun layover when we wanted something different.

Much nicer grassy area compared to Entradero. It's also a reclaimed water park so no access to drinking water. No bathroom either, but I feel most people who go here would just walk home if needed. Adjacent to busy Del Amo but park is spacious enough not to feel the main road

Very tiny park with lots of sunshine! I love the simplicity…read more I walked with my dogs and it's clean and so quiet although along the Del Amo Blvd. Only one missing star is for no bathroom.

It's also right next to North Library so sometimes we do a combo park and library. The park is well maintained as all Torrance parks. The play area is firehouse themed so my son enjoys pretending to be a fireman. There are 4 swings, 2 smaller slides, and 1 bigger slide. The mulch flooring can be a little annoying, especially if not wearing closed shoes. Park also has a basketball court and baseball field. The grassy area is also often used for soccer and ultimate Frisbee on the weekends. Overall a great place for a kid to get some energy out and not bad for adults to run around a little too. Hope you enjoy!

The playground is great for kids with plenty of space to run around and play, and the equipment is well maintained. One of the highlights is the basketball court right next to the playground, which makes it a great spot for both kids and adults. You can shoot some hoops while the kids play, or just hang out and enjoy the open space. The park is clean, well lit at night, and feels safe and family-friendly. Overall, a great local park and definitely a spot we'll keep coming back to.

The good: It's a small and enclosed park with a playground…read more It has four picnic tables that have covered shade. There's a basketball court and a grassy area surrounded by a sidewalk (good for little kids to ride their tricycle). I came on a Sunday morning and it was completely empty. The bad: There's just street parking. There's noise from the street traffic. The playground doesn't have shade. The shade beam looks like it could be replaced. The interesting: They have a small free little library nook. The fence by the playground has a beware of dog sign from the neighboring house. I'm unsure if there's any actual dog threat. There's a small public restroom by the grass area.

This park has potential to be great, it's a nice big grassy area with a playground, benches, basketball court, restrooms, decent parking. The cons are that there are spider/cob webs all over the playground where children play, on multiple occasions there were cigarette butts on the playground, beer bottles on the grass, sometimes there are homeless people that just stare and makes me feel uneasy, and although it does say no dogs allowed, people have off leash dogs running around here which in my opinion, is pretty unsafe around children.

I have driven by this small park multiple times and finally got a chance to stop by today…read more I give it 5 stars because I knew exactly what to expect from the reviews I've read. Is it small? Very small. It took us less than 5 minutes to walk from one end to the other to the LO stopping to walk around the kids play structure. It's would be a nice place to sit and relax except one of the neighboring houses had some renovation going on and all we could hear was the drilling. Street parking is so easy I give it 5 stars because it's dedicated to fallen soldiers and it's not pretending to be something it isn't

This North Redondo Beach park has no sign with the park name that I could find…read more I always drive past it on my way to T J Maxx on Hawthorne.....see my review of the store for my secret short cut! haha Anyways.....I was out today in this crazy heat reviewing parks. It felt like about 90 at the beach, it's hot. But the park looked inviting with its beautiful shade trees. It's about an acre and a half, small, and has nothing but trees and grass, benches, a kids' playground, and restrooms. I like the old streetlamps, must be pretty at night. The kiddie play area has the oddest surface I've seen. It's squishy, like a thick sponge. I was unprepared when I stepped on it to take a photo and almost lost my balance. Seems like it would be a nice soft spot for a kid to fall. My pic of the sign tells more about it. This park is narrow, and runs for a block, through a residential 'hood. It's a nice cut-through for people heading to the plaza around Starbucks on 190th. And there were people enjoying the park today, even in the heat. A red-faced little boy was trying to reach the drinking fountain while his dad laid under a tree in the shade...... The posted sign got my attention, the sign that lists all the "don'ts" for the park: No dogs (true in every Redondo Beach park except the dog park). No bicycles. No ball playing. No skateboarding. No roller skates or roller blades. That's a lot of restrictions! If you come here, plan on just walking through and admiring the trees..... 10 photos are posted.

So this little park is tucked away in North Redondo. If you are riding your bike you can pick it up…read morenear the new North Redondo Bikeway. It's not a bad park. But unlike Valley Park or Veterans Park, for example, it's not a place to make a day of it. There's trees, grass, little benches, you can have a picnic there -maybe a reststop while you are out on a walk or a bike ride. But there's no barbecue pits and no open fires allowed. There's a little area with kid's things like a slide. And when I was there on a sunday afternoon there was a building that appeared to have restrooms but they were all locked up. It's got lots a shade, so like I said earlier, this isn't a bad place to have a picnic, just no barbecues or fires.
