We drove from Long Beach to check out the Splash Pad & the Splash pad itself was amazing but there Definitely needs some sort of enlightening. You would assume the park employees would have the same positive attitudes we find at other recreational parks but unfortunately it was not the case. Especially with children around. You don't have to act like a robot around children. And also there's pretty privelage. If you look white or white washed, you won't get told to put your food away. But if you don't you will. We were told to put away my nieces oranges ( mind you she's autistic & that's one of her go to snacks/part of breakfast) and she was the one eating them ( she's only 12 months old ). So we respected the rules however upon our departure a mom literally went out the park , bought an ice cream from the truck right in front of the gate and walked back in with her 5 year old daughter like nothing. It was like a slap to the face. Another family was eating their ice cream outside the gate to respect the rules but pretty privelage at its finest. It's so unfortunate but not out of the norm anymore. This is what causes issues and tension between families,...
Read morePlenty of street parking. Activities for both children and adults. Two playgrounds, a large covered area with picnic tables, 3 pickleball courts, 1 handball court, basketball court. Oh and a splash pad.
The 3 pickleball courts have permanent nets. You should bring your own chairs to sit in the shade against the wall. There are benches at the end of each courts. The courts have lights in the evening.
The splash pad area is gated inside the blue fence. It opens from noon to 5 and water shuts off 15 minutes prior. There’s a restroom in the same area. All the kids were barefoot but if you’re afraid of stepping in things or slipping, I would recommend water shoes. No food or drinks allowed. No to pets.
It’s seasonal and open starting Memorial weekend to Labor Day. There are 5 picnic benches and 7 park benches. 4 of those benches will be in the wet zone.
There were two staff on duty. Make sure when you change your little ones, to do so in the restroom for...
Read moreCame here on a Saturday around 4 p.m. and boy was it super crowded! We found parking down the street not too far as it was taken all up around the park. The water park was staffed by one person during the water operation (that I noticed)...there were more staff when it closed for cleaning. Honestly, I feel the experience would've been better if the put a cap on how many people are let in. After we played in the water, we walked over to the dry playground side. There was two ice cream trucks, a corn lady and one push cart ice-cream lady. The park was TRASHED with TRASH! The trash bins were all full, over-flowing with garbage. It was very sad to see how people updated this park. I would go back if it were cleaner. I hate to ruin the hustle of the vendors selling at the park, but maybe the city should ban them...
