Honestly, this park is sketchy. I've passed by this park many times growing up, but I finally stopped to take my two boys, and I wouldn't ever again; especially if I was a female alone. There are people who seem homeless lying around the park with random bags before them; not like they are having a picnic alone. The parking lot is filled with random people who don't even enter the park. There were a few families at the jungle gym, but even they seemed weird. There was an older Asian lady with her younger son and what seemed to be the younger sons kid, but they were taking pictures of my kids and the other kids playing; foregoing taking pictures of their own baby. To top it off, while walking back to my car, there was a weird guy looking into my vehicle. He saw me coming, as I began to hit the lock button many times on my cars remote, and ran back to his car. He sat in his car as I loaded my two babies and watched us. Once all loaded jnto the car, he then started his vehicle and drove to the other side of the parking lot, next to the tacobell, and just stood at the door,never entering. I took two pictures as i left and called the cops, but as I circled back, he was obviously gone. He was up to no good, and I wouldn't recommend this park to anyone. I went to the high school across the street, and I know, for a fact, that one goth kid was stabbed over his iPod shuffle here when they...
   Read moreThe park in general is very nice. Big and well maintained. The skatepark is sad. Just good enough to make you think there's something to it and make you want to stay and find it. It's a trap! It's a descent place for beginners or learning new tricks, but it's so mellow and the coping so soft, you may develop bad habits that will get you hurt anyplace else. The skatepark is also poorly engineered in that the planters drain into the bowl (saucer) and flow area. Also the ash trees constantly rain sticks, flowers and leaves onto the concrete. The local non-skating, smoking, loud mouthed, drug addled twits who inhabit the periphery can be both amusing and annoying. ATTENTION CITY OF LAHABRA PARKS DEPT. ADD A RETAINING WALL ON THE NORTHERN EDGE, CUT DOWN THE ASH TREES AND PUT IN A MID OR LARGE BOWL AND REAL SKATERS WILL COME HERE AND THE...
   Read moreActually, for the 4th of July this park is great. But my wife has gone with my daughter while I was at work, and both times she had a scary experience.
On a Monday, she was getting approached by a man who was holding a black metal rod. He said hi to her and began getting closer, but a walker passed by and the odd man backed off and hid behind a tree. My wife and my kid left ASAP while the walker was still present.
Another time they went and my family were getting stared down my another man with a hood.
This is a good park but I only wrote a bad review to raise awareness for the females that go alone and take their kids to the park. If anything there should be more police there.
Just be really aware and cautious and carry...
