Wow! We went to Leo's Haven at Chanticleer Park and it's amazing. I wish this park was closer to…read morehome. It was just built in 2020 so everything is in great condition. It was built in partnership with Shane's Inspiration (if you've been to Griffith Park, it's the same organization). So, many of the park features are universally accessible. The playground area is spacious and a wonderful safe space for children. There are some climbing areas and slides for toddler age but the larger playground is great for preschool-elementary age. There isn't a ton of shade so bring hats and sunscreen! There are some benches scattered around the park and a few tables outside of the gated area. There is a private lot and street parking. They have bathrooms and they are fairly clean!

This is my local gem. It can get crowded but usually is fairly open. There is some gang tagging in…read morethe bbq pit area but nothing overtly offensive. I love the shaded tables right next to the playground. The only sand is by the swings, the rest is just the rubber substrate. The restrooms are pretty usable, although they are a little distance from the structures. You may not be able to get little ones there in time if they aren't good at early notification. There is a little kids play structure and a bigger kids structure. There is a water fountain which is very accessible to all. Plenty of slides, a few swings and a variety of climbing activities! There is a tennis court and a big, multi-purpose field. There is a decent parking lot. Pros: location, bbq pits, open tables, shaded tables, restrooms, water fountain, places to play, parking, a lot of trees Cons: possible gang hang out, also (being in Live Oak) there is a possibility of creepy molesters hanging out in the corners. I'm not kidding! There is a guy sitting across the park from me right now staring at my kids. It has been only me, my kids and this guy for the last 90 minutes. I've been staring into his creepy eyes whenever he looks over. Also, Brommer St. runs along it and can be street noisy if that sort of thing bothers your little ones.

Beautiful state beach for either spending the day or overnight in one of the campsites!…read more We stopped in on a Sunday around 1pm and wasn't crowded at all. Since we paid $10 at Seacliff state beach a few miles away it was free to enter with our receipt. We asked about the overnight camp sites and were told book in advance on www.parks.ca.gov. They did have some open sites although premium ocean view sites which I believe have hookups go quickly as are only around 9 of those. They are on the top of a tall bluff so do not have easy access to the beach. The beach is a further walk or drive to a separate area of the park. The beach area is pretty and would be a chill spot to enjoy the afternoon away from a ton of people. We enjoyed our time here.
