Nice park for volleyball, chipmunks spotting, for young kids or just a strall. Little bit small for jogging but can help with daily exercise. Free for bikers and pedestrians, fee for cars (~$6).

4 stars because its a good spot to watch Western Bluebirds. Otherwise a flat, lengthy park with beautiful oaks and 30s era picnic spots.

The park is in trrrible condition n they charge for parking on top of it. The park n all the picnic area were run down. There were more dead grass than live ones. If this place cleans up, it would be very nice. There were lots of BBQ pits that are free.

$6 entrance fee for what?! Came here during the summer and everything looked dead and run down. This was my first time at this park. Just baffled at what the money was going towards because it definitely wasnt for upkeeping the grounds.

Beautiful parked nestled in between Menlo Park and Atherton. Its a hidden gem with BBQ facilities, picnic areas, and playground stuff. Downside is it costs money to park.

Review №33

This park could be really great if if were more maintained. It is a nice place to go for a picnic. The tennis courts arent fully functional and the fields are not great. I really wish there could be more funding for places like this since its a great respite from the busy area around it.

Review №34

Rather fun place to be. If you have few friends or a large group doesnt matter. There is plenty of space. You can even reserve your spot in advance. Tables and barbecue pits are plenty. Come over and enjoy .

Came here for a party and the rangers were very rude. Pretty embarrassing dealing with these guys who work here due to their unprofessionalism

Review №36

It was huge, with lots of different surfaces, great for birthdays or big events. Im debating whether to give it 3 or 4 stars because the parks playground equipment was so hot (lack of overhead shading) and the sand wasnt that playable for little kids... But otherwise it was great,rather amazing.but if you plan to play in the sand, take toys .

Dry lifeless grass - this is what can spoil the impression from park. But there are a lot of rent available spots (to make a party), water fountains, shades, benches, tables, grilling zones. Be prepared to pay $6 of parking fee. Park is huge.

It is a great park, but it is run down. The tennis courts are in disarray and the field is overgrown. It is a large park, and good for walks, but it is normally uninhabitable.
