El Dorado Park is a gorgeous little Park! So many wonderful shade trees -that's why I love walking my dogs there! There's always somebody fishing and enjoying a quiet time with that- there's often people playing games or volleyball or cooking out just relaxing. There's quite a few picnic tables and several ramadas for family fun but they also have the larger ramadas and lots of space for big group Fun. There's also several individual benches by the lake if you just want to sit quietly and think or watch the water and Wildlife or catch up on phone messages . The big beautiful Heron's nest in a Tree close by and usually some ducks hanging out. There are nice playground areas- 1 is completely shaded overhead the other I believe for younger children is made with a material that is not hot to the touch and they have upgraded that beautifully as well. It is Well cared for and is a world of difference compared to the 1960s and 70s (I have pictures I remember)! I'm So grateful for a relaxing gorgeous park to be close to and enjoy with family and friends or my dogs. I don't have pictures to add at this time but I've got some when we've had terrible Monsoon storms and our beautiful park got flooded out briefly,--but even though that's inevitable it's cleaned up as quickly as they're able depending on the damage. A year ago we had a wonderful family picnic with 40 people there - we made use of the volleyball sand pit -space to play Frisbee and a couple othet...
Read moreThis park is awesome! Great jungle gym and swings. My family likes the aquatic center. If you're Scottsdale residents, its $3 for adults and $2 for children. Non residents $4 for adults and $3 for children. Its a two sided pool, on the left is for children. The water is 1'8 foot deep wichbis perfect for little 6 month old babies (with physical close supervision of course) and teeders between 2ft and 3ft the more you move out toward the deeper side of the pool. Theres a little diving board and a BIG diving board, on the diving side of the pool which is the far right, the water is 13ft deep. On the far left are two large water slides, the water is 5'6 ft deep. There are two big snack machines and there are tables to set up food or birthday cakes. Great place for birthday parties for ages 6 month to 100 years old. They are open seven days a week from 1pm to 5pm. A whole four hours, thats it! One Saturday a month however, the pool is open from 1pm to 9pm. Just ask the front office for details. This place is also a Boys and Girls club too. The trolley Miller Hayden Road MLH is free and takes you straight to Eldorado Park and its perfect for 13+ year olds, all routes are Northbound and Southbound on...
