Camino Real Park — Attraction in Ventura

Title: A Canine Haven in Nature's Embrace

Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5 stars)

Camino Real Park truly stands out as a gem for dog lovers and their furry companions. Nestled in the heart of nature's embrace, this park offers an exceptional experience that caters to both dogs and their humans.

The highlight of Camino Real Park is undoubtedly its spacious and well-maintained dog park. The area provides ample room for our four-legged friends to roam, run, and play freely. What sets this park apart is the thoughtful inclusion of mature trees that generously provide shade, creating a comfortable environment for both pets and owners, even on hot summer days. As a dog owner, I appreciate the foresight of the park's planners in considering our pets' well-being.

Picnic tables thoughtfully scattered throughout the dog park offer a perfect spot for human companions to relax while keeping an eye on their playful pups. It's an ideal setup for socializing with other dog owners and sharing joyful moments with fellow pet enthusiasts.

One of the highlights that stood out to me during my visits was the presence of a doggy drinking fountain. This small yet significant feature emphasizes the park's commitment to ensuring the welfare of our beloved pets. Having a readily available water source for our furry friends is a testament to the park's dedication to creating a safe and welcoming space for all visitors.

Beyond the park's amenities, the community of dog owners that frequent Camino Real Park is incredibly warm and friendly. Everyone seems genuinely invested in ensuring a positive experience for their dogs and other park-goers. It's heartwarming to witness how quickly friendships form between humans and their pets, fostering a strong sense of camaraderie among the visitors.

Camino Real Park has undoubtedly become a go-to destination for me and my canine companion. The park's commitment to providing a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable environment for our furry friends is evident in every aspect. I wholeheartedly recommend this park to any dog owner seeking a serene place to bond with their pets, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the camaraderie of a...

My husband & I love the scenery here! Plenty of trees to keep us cool as we walk along the perimeter to keep fit four days per week. We're there with friends Monday, Wednesday, Friday, & Sunday early afternoons to help give you (the reader,) a better idea of our viewpoint as we walk the different pathways. There's a sign as you're walking towards the dog park section which marks the different pathways and their lengths.

The dog park section is always active. It's great but rarely full, especially the section for the under 20 pound dogs.

There's always something happening at the park. They have: 4 baseball fields, a soccer field, tennis courts, a volleyball court, basketball courts, & a few different play areas for the kids.

There's also plenty of benches, picnic tables, & several small barbecue pits. The largest two barbecue pits are located closest to the dog park. Most of the time they are empty. However, I would recommend you call in advance to reserve them.

The restrooms are generally always open. Please keep liquid soap & sanitizer on hand with you, as the restroom closest to the entrance didn't have it the other day. (T.g. I did!) Most of the time the three restrooms are fully stocked.

If you're a bookworm, The Little Red Box lending library is immediately at the entrance on your right hand side. If you blink, you can easily pass it. It's not fully obvious if you're not looking for it. You'll have to park first. Then it's only a short walk back to it.

Speaking of parking, there's also ample parking surrounding the perimeter. Definitely an absolute bonus if you're thinking about having a party of any size here! Despite the fact that there's a variety of interesting things happening here, it's usually extremely...

I love this park!

It’s well maintained although the road in the park really should get repaved. If you drive further back there is a sink near picnic tables that has running water and there’s another faucet near tables past the playground.

Not sure if the water is potable so I can’t recommend drinking it.

There’s a dog park that has a fence around it and it looks like dogs enjoy it. I don’t talk to any of the dogs in person but they sure look happy.

There’s courts (I’m assuming tennis) located to the left when you first drive in and they look well kept. The bathrooms are clean and always had toilet paper when I had to use them.

The fields are really big and I’ve been here during little league and it gets packed! Not all the time but sometimes.

Lots of shade to park under and great place...
