Even though i live in the next town over. I go to this park every morning. They have an artificial pond where ducks stay. The constant quacking always bring a smile to my face. Of course.. The pond gets dirty and lay out a stench at times but it get cleans occasionally. Anyways despite that.. This is my favorite park in the valley.. Great place to walk.
Grew up in IV, came back to visit after having been gone for a couple of decades. This park was somewhere we went all the time while growing up. I’m glad to see that they’ve tried hard to keep it up. It’s a pretty park and very large. Paved walk ways, fountains, play area, Little Library box. I enjoyed our time back here.
I love it. Early morning run, soak in the view as the sun rises. Chat with some friendly locals.
I appreciate that the city has been investing in the park and that much needed improvements have been made. Only thing left to figure out is the smell from the pond on the east side (which has been there all my life). Other than that, the park is looking great!
So clean. Beautiful. relaxing. etc
Park was wet but so beautifully green. My dogs and I loved the energy of all the people walking and the fresh air
I slipped and fell on a drug needle. Not sure what it was but I felt great. Highly recommend
I really like coming here to exercise, bring my kids, or jst relax...been coming here since i was lil
Good to see its been cleaned up. Looks great
Very clean always when going gives me the feeling to work out
It needs more grass. More water for the ducks. Basically swimming on algea.
They do renovation and the park looks stunning
Bucklin Park is clean and a great place to go to get out of the house
During the day is really hot and hard to walk or run during summer because the weather. But because the pandemic times if you want to exercise dont go at night....its really crowded.
Park is reasonably well maintained. Has had a few upgrades over the years. Great place to get some fresh air and clear your mind. Or just have some fun.
The largest and possibly the only public park (besides the ones in some residential corners). The cement track throughout the park makes it easy to walk or bike through. Usually well-kept and pretty clean!Im not a fan of the flags and Freedom is Not Free statements adding a political atmosphere here. It takes away from the nature-aspect that the park is supposed to offer.At the time of this review, there is also renovations occurring on the south end (playground side) of the park.
A cute small park with a small man made pond. Its a gathering spot for local ducks - watch out for droppings. If you play Pokemon Go, there are two gyms and five Pokestops. Green grass, and a sizable playground makes it great for families with children. There are plenty of spots to sit, eat, relax, and enjoy one of the best parks in the Valley.
Super cute park clean
Playground in the far corner for kids; sidewalk pathway that encircles the entire park; fountain and ponds full of ducks; bathrooms are somewhat run down (no mirrors, missing doors on some stalls); lots of shady grassy areas to rest at; veterans memorial adjacent to the fountain; tables and new benches scattered throughout the park as well as two ramada areas (the one by the fountain is usually occupied by middle school and high school students and frequented by homeless people). 3 Pokémon Go gyms here as well as various Pokéstops.
Great place for pokemon go!.
Love this place!
Great place for a walk. Need bathrooms..
Is a nice place to jog or spend the afternoon with fam
Kids love this park.
Always clean, great playground for the kids and awesome walking trails!!! It has nice photography spots too
Nice park with ducks and pegions !
All I can say it is looking great.
Nice lil park but dont know if it seasonal work or not but had no water in the park which is always nice to see as well as have in a park A
It is a big park to do lots of things. Also there is a new playpark area for children in the process of finishing up. I enjoy taking my daughter there to walk around and play.
It is a big park to do lots of things. Love this place
Cause is the better park in el CenTro plus the up grade in the park is looking very nice & clean
Its a park people. Go here or go someplace else. Lots of parky kinda features. Good enough for doing park kinda activities. What do you except? five stars
Beautiful park. Ducks. Ponds. Hills. Beautiful at sunrise and sunset. I would recommend this as a Must Stop At for any family passing through SoCal from Arizona. People who live in the area are lucky. Great place for kids. Even has restrooms!
Its a cool park. My kids run here every morning and I teach Zumba here once a week.
Needs a bit more maintenance but its nice to take the kids
Bucklin Park is the perfect place in Imperial Valley to enjoy a nice stroll after a long day. Lots of large trees, you always see dogs being walked though many owners think its ok not to keep them on leashes, so be careful. Lovely playground for children and there is a workout area. A nice veterans memorial and a few water fountains. It would be ideal if the city installed CCTV cameras at every corner and angle of the park for public safety.
I go to this place to do exercise and let me tell you that it is a very wonderful day to run, walk, rest, or let kids play in the playground. Marvelous place
Its a great place to find all the love,your heart desires. I love you Cynthia.
Grew up next to this park, will always love Bucklin and have fond memories of riding my bike, feeding the ducks, playing on the playground and picnics. Now making new memories with my children.Always clean and safe.
This property offers an exercise and play area with a water bottle filling station/drinking fountain. The path is laid out with bricks in a nice pattern and a handful of places to enjoy the scenery, a nice picnic, the occasional birthday party, or even some field/outdoorsy games. The path does have some areas that need reparations and there are some patches of grass that tend to stay wet constantly, but these are avoidable once noticed. There are only two drinking fountains on the SW end of the park. Overall a great place to go for a playdate or a nice walk.
Nice park...no ducksss
Its beaUtiful and peaceful...great place for family gathering or running on their cemented trails
Nicest park in Imperial County
Its like youre someplace else. Its beautiful
Great park, the heat takes the majority of enjoyment out of it with a quickness but if u wanna excercise or walk your dog its excellent. If u hsve a more intimidated breed of dog, people often fuss over the entire park they have left to be. Then theres those who meet and are open to seeing how harmless she is so thats cool. I love my dog so that counts a bunch.
The park has been completely renewed, its amazing!
One of the best park to go to. With nice scenery, spacious to have birthday parties or small family and friend events. Can bike ride, walk, run, and even has an outdoor gym. Its one of the best park to go and relax and have fun.
Very good place. Usually its called the duck park.
It is a great place to take the kids to play on the playground ground. Or have a picnic and watch the ducks. Or workout at the excerise area. Public restrooms and plenty of parking.
Needs to be more lights and a fountain
Its under construction and my granddaughter couldnt play at the playground...hopefully it gets done fast. The weather is nice right now for being out at the park.
Its a great idea to take a walk at bucklin park its a nice place to go for a walk
Its peaceful and clean.
Took my GRNDBBYS 4 a LIL fun but, unfortunately its not what it use 2 B when I was a kid. Just doesnt seem 2 LOOK safe nowadays. It also is the only big park in the valley so have no choice.
Great place for families to see the ducks and play on the play equipment. Nice path to jog or ride bike around the pond.
Nice park. Great to go running. Nice green grass all around. Many families.Bad: teenagers smoking weed first time I went there. Bathrooms were filthy. I would not let my kids use these bathrooms. Needs update.
Great during the day. Dangerous at night
Great place to have parties and excerscise. Very green and with all the new fixtures, very aesthetically pleasing.
Great place to exercise and relax.
A nice spot to enjoy a picnic lunch
They have a lovely playground for the kids to enjoy
Great place to walk n enjoy a meal very clear n taken care off. Good work city of El Centro...
Its a very beautiful and amazing park! Fun for the whole family to enjoy a wonderful day!
Ducks @ Bucks! Trails to Sail! A Park in the middle of the Valleys Heart. Love this Park since a kid. Really wish they can update the playground for the kids and adults!
Nice place to jog at, besides that not really much to do if youre not interested in a childrens playset.
Nice clean
Its a good park to go to walk!
A pleasant little park.
The park has gotten a lot better since the last time Ive been here. New memorial, new paved path. Before it was just dirt. BUT crime has gone up around here so I would not stick around after dark. Several fights between wanna be gang babies, a stabbing and a shooting. Thats the valley for ya though!
Is really nice, love the birds
Dead ducks. Awful sighting. The water of their pond, or what is left of it, was disgusting. Please attend the poor animals.
If youre looking for a place outdoors for more than one reason, and also away from your same everyday scenery in & outside your own home, then I recommend The Bucklin Park. This park has plenty of space for enough recreational ideas for you make happen if you want to spend some time with your wife/husband & children, family, in-law family and friends. Yes, l will give you some ideas, but first I need to you know a few things about this park, it has: hills, a big enough pond, ducks, restrooms on two sides of the park, a good size playground, and a very large jogger and bike track all around the whole park. Now the ideas are: birthday parties, family reunions, jogging & walking exercise, sport games practice, or just a day out of the house with a little BBQ and relaxation. Directions are: 8th Street and Ross Avenue, and also 8th Street and Aurora Avenue. Your Welcome & Enjoy!
Its a nice park but it needs more vigilance! Its not okay to see a lot of adicts around of all the kids playing in the park
Reward is for any info regarding the redline 24inch that was stolen
A great pleace to speend time with your family, rest and relax! Love it ️
Nice they got 2 paleteros mad mosquitoes in the summer but its coo
Great park for the kids. The slides are fun and the structure is safely built.
Always a good time, day or NIGHT.
Great family barbque and a jogging walkway with a 75 to 100 round wide pond full of ducks so ur children can feed them
Nice and beautiful Park with a good walking track.
My babies love it. All four, four leged sweethearts.
Nice place to relax enjoy yourself and have fun
They have a walking Track made out of bricks they really went out of their way the do a good job on this place really nice park my thanks the city of El Centro for doing such a good job
Nice and quiet
The park is old and littered, but the play area is very good and they installed workout supplies for adults
Nice big, friendly, pets allowed, park.
Sitting with my baby doll having lunch was perfect here
