Adventure Playground in Yorba Linda is a wonderland for children, offering a world of exploration, excitement, and fun. I've taken my 5 and 7-year-olds here, and it's easily one of the best parks we've ever visited. The highlight for them was the three connected sky bridges, presenting numerous adventurous ways to climb up and down. They were absolutely thrilled.
It's a beautifully designed space that includes a splash pad with a water slide – a perfect retreat for the hot days. The zip lines are a blast for kids, and the treehouse vibe with wooden bridges adds a charming touch to the playground. The artificial grass baseball field is another unique feature, providing a safe and fun area for kids to play.
The park is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, with 16 picnic tables under a large shelter offering ample shade. It's an ideal spot for a family picnic. The splash pad is a hit with toddlers and babies, and the waterslides (with a height requirement) are supervised by lifeguards for added safety.
For families with smaller children, the splash pad is the go-to spot. The climbing structure and bridge tunnels are also great, but can get crowded, especially on weekends. Maneuvering through them requires a bit of patience due to the enthusiasm of the many kids enjoying the park.
A few tips for visitors:
On weekends, reservations are required, and Yorba Linda residents get priority booking. It's best to reserve your spot a few days in advance. Parking can be challenging, so arriving early or considering street parking might be wise. The park has multiple parking options, including nearby lots. Restrooms are available but don’t have seat covers or hooks for bags, so plan accordingly, especially if changing young children. Bringing your own lunch, sunscreen, and water toys can enhance your experience. If you're planning to enjoy the water features, don't forget swimwear and towels. For the best experience, consider visiting during off-peak hours to avoid crowds, especially if you have younger children.
In summary, Adventure Playground is a fantastic destination for families looking for a fun and safe outdoor experience. Its thoughtful design caters to kids of all ages, and its variety of activities ensures there's something enjoyable for everyone. It's a must-visit for those seeking a delightful day out with their kids in...
Read moreI, like others was very excited to hear of the opening of this public water park. Unfortunately, it is essentially unavailable to the public. During the summer, it is closed on the weekdays. They have various summer camp programs that use it during these days. It is open on the weekend, but only to reservations, which is very hard to reserve in time. During what they consider non summer months, it is allegedly open, but if a single cumulus cloud exists in the sky within 25 square miles, the park closes down.
Hopefully a solution can be figured out because a lot of public money was put into this park and it would be nice if the public could use it.
Edit: one additional thing I’d like to mention. They have the audacity to allow us public peasants have access to the park midweek...
Read moreThis is a very nice place. And it was free! Very clean and many places to sit if you get there early at least. We brought our own chairs and blankets to sit on. Brought food and had a picnic type of evening.
I wish there was NOT so much DIRT. Why there is beautiful artificial turf about 3 feet surrounding play area and THATS it I don’t know. There is a walking path to get around with out going in the dirt but the rocky dirt area is very large and basically unusable. They may still do something but just wanted to open up in time for spring/summer. Bathrooms nice and the warm shower was a HIT for kids to warm up before heading to car. It got breezy and wasn’t quite a HOT summer day yet. Will go...
