Nice park . They have tennis courts with night time lights and basketball courts too. Also many people bring their dogs here, so very dog friendly.

This park is magnificent! Endless lawns, shade, a beautiful desert landscape area. A perfect place to walk with your best friend before the heat of the day.

Very nice park right in the middle of the Movie Colony neighborhood. I have toured through a few other areas/neighborhoods in the PS area and the MC is def my favorite. Most of the homes are secluded and not visible from the streets. The homes you can see though are beautiful and maintained. The park does have BBQs and seating areas but not a lot of shade. I would imagine the park is not used very much during the summer heat. Unless its between 5am to 10am and then again after sunset.

Since Covid-19 I started walking when my gym closed. Hardy Park paramiter is about 1 mile. I walk this in the mornings and have met a nice group of people. It helps in feeling less isolated during these uncharted times.The park is well kept and has a wide varitey of venues. Tennis, meditation gardens, outdoor excerise gym. Great park to visit anytime.

My 18 month old daughter would give this park 5 stars. Lots of swings, only 2 infant swings though, and plenty of slides and things to climb on. Seemed to be well maintained and free of any litter.

Very nice park and very clean. No homeless people hang there. Only issue is that they water the grounds in the middle of the day (lunchtime) when there are people all over using it. Why??? Cant the city water the grounds during the night?

My dogs and I love this place! So much grass! Dogs are to be on leash bad part is a lot of people ignore that rule. Which is poopy. Other than that it is a great park for everyone!

Friendly people nice place to walk around and play with the dogs . Also you can play tennis or use the picnic benches . The park has many large shade trees making it a pleasant place for relaxing or meeting up with friends / family.etc... There also are restrooms and doggie stations. For the children the park has a great safe playground. For adults a therapy park and garden with many things to do in a healthy fun way. The area also has many benches to just relax and enjoy the birds and the beauty of its garden. There is ample parking which is central so quite convenient for anyone.

Our extended family came together for a week this spring in a large home near Ruth Hardy Park for the second time. It was a big part of a wonderful experience for all of us-eight adults and seven kids. We played tennis and bocce ball, chased each other around on the grass, hung out and took daily walks in and around it. It’s a Palm Springs treasure.

I have been going to Ruth Hardy Park, since I was a kid! I remember playing football with friends on Saturdays, we would turn the big open area south of the tennis courts into a field and it was on! Everyone would come out, some to play and some to watch ! I even proposed to my (now ex-wife ) here at the park, mostly great memories from the old days!

Pet friendly, but some people allow there dogs to run freely. Its a great place to walk in the summer around dusk, but sometimes there are coyotes, be aware. The basketball court seems to always be busy, also the playground seems to really delight the children. Its nice to have a park close by, it really just needs a dog park. That would be my idea of perfection.

Ruth Hardy Park was a delightful experience for my dog and myself. There were several other dogs theyre all friendly and most dogs are leashed although you can let them run but you just need to be aware of community police driving through. Sometimes you will be given a warning but generally its just a verbal warning if its the first time theyve seen you with a dog off-leash. I like to let my dachshund run just for a few minutes just to get some exercise and the rest of the time we spend on the leash. Its a good place for kids to go they have a lot of great slides and things to climb on and all different types of things that are enjoyed by children so its also the location of the City Community picnic Every Spring and its its great for Gatherings picnics reunions that type of thing.

Nice tennis courts at a lovely public park. The tradition is, when players are waiting they get to play whoever wins the last set. Its a great way to meet people and enjoy fun tennis.

Best place in Palm Springs to get a pick-up tennis match. Come early because the locals know to get finished before the heat sets in.

RHP and the adjacent Wellness Park are in my hood and I do my 3-4 mile fast-walk through them 3-4 times a week. They are both very nice parks; theyre well maintained, theres usually plenty of easy going people, often with their dogs, occasional events - overall very nice public outdoor spaces... my only gripe, and this would hold true in most public parks anywhere, the restrooms are kinda nasty...
