Love this park, but Oakland wont spend any of the money, we approved over the last ten years, to fix holes in the swing area. Dangerous and ugly. The beautiful pond is now covered with muck and reeds. The old west themed play area is about to collapse. Very sad. Still worth a visit. Wheelchair enabled, basketball court, sports area. Grass is green. Make Oakland Fix our Park!

Great place for a walk. Simply take a brake.

I liked the lake with the geese. The Mountain Blvd parking was convenient but would probably be more challenging when the elementary school opens. The skate ramp was a nice touch but small. If somewhat steep walking with no rails is a challenge, enter from the Moraga side. The tables were not clean at all so bring a tablecloth and towels to sit on.

Parks are wonderful. I was invited to a socially distancing picnic on a Saturday. We were nearly alone at the park when youd think it would be most busy.Well, from 6 feet away you cant hear your friend over the roar of traffic. It turns out to be right next to a busy freeway. So many better parks in the bay area.

Once a beautiful safe park this has become a health hazard of complete demise. The city of Oakland has made public parks the lowest priority failing to maintain anything. No longer safe for anyone! Complete demise! Completely unsafe and filthy!

Something for everyone to enjoy at this lovely park. Grab some sunshine and fresh air, but the restrooms are nonexistent, so bring some camouaflage (or head over to the Safeway next door).

A large park with convenient parking, bathroom facility, and 3 different play areas for different aged children.There is also a duck pond and event center. lastly a sports field and skate ramp for older youth.Its located next door to the Montclair commercial district, easy access to a coffee shop and supermarket. As a parent you will appreciate the coffee

A nice baseball outfield to play various sports. There is also a small-scaled skateboard ramp for practicing different skateboard techniques. The surrounding area has some nice restaurants and boutique stores. On the weekend, there is a cozy farmers market to get fresh produce and prepared meals. Overall, this out of the way enclave is a nice place for a weekend getaway.

It is a park for everyone, toddlers to adults. Theres play equipment for toddlers and grammar school kids. You can bring a lunch or barbeque. Bring a ball and shoot baskets. Lots of turtles in the pond... And sometimes you can see geese.

Great park! The play structures are fun and safe. The pond is a little murky but there are a few koi and some turtles that live in it so it cant be that bad. Its on a very busy street, and cars dont always want to slow down for you to cross, so go slow and be careful. Only one crosswalk has flashing signals.

Great place to bring your kids if you want them to see homeless in the wild and not on the streets. If you love the smell of piss come to this park

Review №23

The animals there are treated very poorly, especially the turtles. There are no rangers around. Today I saw a family feeding the geese, and the geese got increasingly aggressive. The turtles have barley any space to lie, and often have to pile on top of each other. Though I can’t confirm, I did hear there were some chickens once abandoned at the park. Lastly, there was a creepy old man watching us, and there was no one to report it to. The least they could do is have more signs informing the public about the matters, or enforce them.

This is a nice city park close to Montclair shopping and cafes. The pond with its ducks, geese and turtles is the focal point. The baseball field, half pipe skateboard feature, childrens playground, tennis courts, picnic tables, tall shade trees and bathrooms makes it a favorite for many locals. You can find parking nearby.

Great little park - lots to do and see for all ages (theres even a mini ramp for skateboarding!) And nicely situated next to all the little Montclair shops. Perfect place to kill a few hours with the little ones. As usual though the public restrooms are pretty gross...

I take my niece here every now and then. I grew up in the area and this was always my go to park. I used to catch crawfish with hotdogs or gum attached to a stick. The playgrounds are really nice. The bathrooms are disgusting. That pretty much sums up the park.
