Probably the Best Thing You Can Get in Irvine for $3 💸

A parking pass to a park! 😂 📍 William R. Mason Regional Park A peaceful, spacious little park with lush greenery and water views—just the right size for an after-dinner stroll. On weekday evenings, it’s not too crowded—mostly elderly couples walking hand-in-hand, people walking their dogs 🐕, and occasionally young folks reading under trees or on the grass 📖. Though not huge, the park is rich with plants and scenery at every turn. There’s also a wide variety of waterbirds—I spotted at least four or five different kinds just today! 🦆🕊️ At sunset, a gentle breeze brushes the water’s surface, reflecting the sky, clouds, trees, and birds in the lake—so serene and poetic. Walking here feels like a spiritual cleanse, honestly. 🧘✨ Heads up: Coyotes may appear after dark, so be careful if you’re walking your furry friends! 🐾 Address: 18712 University Dr, Irvine, CA 92612 Hours: 7 AM – 9 PM Parking Fee: 3 on weekdays; around 5–6 on weekends (can’t quite remember~) #Irvine #IrvineLife #GoldenHour #StrollVibes #ParkLife #SimplePleasures #NatureTherapy #SoCalParks #QuietEscape #UrbanNature #IrvineParks
