This park is pretty large and has some diverse terrain. At one end, there's a tiny public pool surrounded with barbed wire fences. Not far from the pool is a large duck pond. Unfortunately the architect thought it would be a good idea to add a water jet in the center that blasts the duck pond water 30 feet into the air. There is a lot of wind in pittsburg and you'll find yourself being misted with the duck water. The rough deteriorating concrete pathway around the pond is covered with duck feces and makes navigating very tricky for people with disabilities. if you use a wheelchair, consider trying another park. At the other end there is a play structure and tan bark, 2 small child swings, and rusty jagged drainage entrance. The drain has a concrete drop of about 5 feet above it, and is situation between the two play areas. Very dangerous for small kids. The grassy area between the major areas of the park is rough and the grass is not well maintained. Parking is located completely out of sight and on the far sides of the park. The parking lot is well out of sight of the street so don't leave any valuables in the car. There isn't a whole lot of great things to say about this park, but it is definitely better than a few others in pittsburg/antioch. This park needs to be better maintained, the duck pond needs to be cleaner to be spraying everyone with the water, and the dangerous drain should be addressed.

Large park with lots of shaded, grassy play or picnic areas. There are some small charcoal or wood burning BBQ grills on post that are cemented in the ground. That's probably a good thing as it assures no single group can selfishly gather more than one. There are also covered picnic areas right near the restrooms. Great if you've rented one of the covered areas as you only have a short walk to well... wash your hands. LOL But wait, there's more! There is a large, deep, cool swimming pool that is perfect to cool off in for those hot summer Pittsburg days. There are more things to list but let's save them for you to explore and discover.

Good place to take Christmas photos. Beautiful leaves and trees. Kids enjoyed walking around and playing on the small bridges around the park. After pictures they got to play at the park. Updated review: after all the heavy rain, the ground around the playground is very uneven. Watch out when walking or running.
