Pretty amazing park. I have three kids who are 12, 10 and 2 and they really liked it. The park itself is really nice and open with quite a few benches for parties. There is also an open field about 60-80 yards wide which could accommodate a volleyball net or throw a football around.
The park also has a really nice ping pong table but you need to bring your own paddles and ball. There are also public bathrooms that remain open during park times, so definitely a plus if you have a party here.
The play structures are fantastic and you can tell the city of Santa Clara put a lot of time and effort in designing it. It's got a nature type theme, where the slide area looks like a hollowed out tree with owl figures and a bear face on it. The slides are tame enough for the 2 year old and fast enough for my 12 year old to stay entertained. It's also got swings and a sand area with a table that looks like it would accommodate water play.
Another really cool feature that I've never seen at any other park is that there is an interactive speaker located under a slide. Kids wind up the dial and are given an audible tone. Kids then have 10 different button choices associated with different animal pictures. Once you press a button, you get a recorded message telling the kids about the animal and kids get treated to the sound the animal makes. My 2 year old loved this and spent a long time playing with this and was totally bummed when we had to leave.
Overall a really good park and definitely deserves a visit. This park definitely deserves 5 stars as my kids agree that it's now their...
Read moreThis is a really lovely neighborhood park! There are two main play structures (one made for ages 2-5 and one for 5-12) with a variety of slides, some rock/boulder walls, a bridge, spinning wheel monkey bars, and a spinning structure. They have a ping-pong table and nice green space as well as picnic tables and small grills. There is also a sand area although some of the times we have gone it's been a bit too wet to play in. There are hills for kids to climb up and a couple swings including ones for adults to parallel swing with especially little ones. The best park of this playground is all the little details put in. It's meant to feel like a forest/tree house so there are climbing paths up the tree to reach the slides, little critters inside the walls of the log tunnel, and even a bear inside the base of the tree. You can spin the wheel and learn about different wild animals and their sounds too. There are public bathrooms on site and about 12 parking spots in the lot. There is a lot of street parking available too. It can be popular on the weekends for birthday parties. This park is now a frequent request and our family...
Read moreKiddos were extremely impressed with this park and all the different things it has. The hidden animals were a cute little surprise, but the fake bear scared the youngest 😅 Overall they gave this park 5 stars, and we will be back.
2 separate playgrounds in the same area, with plenty of soft padding in case of falls. The equipment offered a variety of challenges to test their skills. The sand table was a nice touch as well.
Park was clean and well maintained, bathrooms were clean and stocked - but no changing station in the women's. Lots of picnic tables, and a little trail along the creek towards an open green space with...
