Nice place in the day time but dont end up there after hours.

Great park! Perfect place to run the energy outta the kids for a bit. Skate park, Bike jumps, playground, aquatic center, and so much more! Lovely Sacramento River Trail to stroll down that passes right through.. This is my kids favorite park to visit by far!!

This park has lots of recreational possibilities. Skatepark, soccer field, young childrens play area as well as big shady trees . Not to mention its by the river.

So cool, really liked the fish shed.

GOOD PLACE BEAUTIFUL FOR FAMILY WITH KIDS SO MUCH STAFF RIVER SIDE VIEW KIDS Pool and adult pool kids play ground just great

Next to Sacramento river and trail for bicycles and walking around great place for the whole family and friends

I will always love this place. Too many childhood memories!

Good field lights that stay on till 10pm!

Awesome! Love the kids junior bike park & the rock climbing playground.

If you like hanging out with the homeless and the crazies then its perfect

Always a good time. A fun park year round. Great place to ride bikes and skateboards too. Set right next to the Sacramento river, its got something for everyone.

Great place to walk the dog and people watch.

Very nice park. Kept well. Trails for walking/ bike riding, lots of grass for field activities. I love going here to just read a book. Nice and quiet park. Only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because of the transients. Not the parks fault, thats just Redding all over. So it might not be the best for parents to take their kids. So I would say 5 star park with a 1 star problem.

Fresh air .great place for family friends and kids and animals all to come together and enjoy the beautiful outdoors.

Lovely park greatly well kept and very friendly

I teach an exercise class here for the City of Redding so I am at the park often. I love it here and its usually a very safe and beautiful walk from Caldwell to the sundial bridge (and back).

Caldwell iss beautiful and right next to the Sacramento river. Seems like more and more homeless are staking it out though. Its a shame because it doesnt feel safe to go there anymore with my daughter.

Nice park to relax in or out of your car

Nice park by the river, a few lowlifes hanging around

Very beautiful when you go on the River Trail you can walk to the Sundial Bridge from there they have the Aquatic Center the little kid playground is awesome its gated in so its great the skatepark recommend this part 2

Friday night movies in the park is always good. Just sitting out under the night sky beautifulL9

Now Im going to start with what the facts are. One its a beautiful park in Redding. I highly recommend it for the many different things you can see and do! Theres a huge green grass area that is beautiful and well maintained! A bike path and a rather nice bmx pump track that I fully recommend yall take a ride on. Ive been to many and this one is nice!Kids play area is nice and ya probably will only have to contend with one or two drug addicts! Now my full take on to me is a huge problem. The bums the loud nasty and volger folks who think it their right to blatantly be disrespectful and disgusting!! And unfortunately this park as many others are is jam packed with shopping cart nomads.If your in Redding Defenatly stop and enjoy the park! Bring the kids! Lock up your cars and watch over everything with a eagle eye!

I grew up here. This park has always been there. Lots of space. Nice trails plenty of parking.

They hold movies in the park in the Summer great family times.

Nice Park w several restrooms. Kids love the BMX track and there is a nice walking/biking trail along river.

Full of beardy surprises!

I get the best drugs here

Great outdoor park with tons of fun features for the kids

It is a nice park. Without the homeless it would be 5 stars.

Such a cool place for beginners to expert bicycle riders. Fun for all ages.

This park has always been a blue ribbon park for walking the dog or Grandchildren but not anymore. You must be careful here now.

Felt very safe even with homeless neighbors nearby, until this city worker showed up to vape and look around his environment constantly for threats. Funny thing is, he was the threat. I had to move away from his creepy behavior.

Great place to get away from being inside.

Caldwell park has gotten a lot better. Now with new activities.

5 stars for the pool and kids pool area. 4 stars for the size of the park and the bike trail. 5 star for the kids climbing area. -1 start for the kids playground being in the direct sun. There is even cover over the picnic tables right next to the playground. 4 stars for the clean bathrooms, but bring your own soap.

Nice place most of park closed due to the Rona19

Great bike and skate park. Skate park could use some colorful graphics.

Beautiful park love all the wildlife

It was great. I havent been there in years

Such a cool place. Right on the river with a beautiful pool. My daughter attended soccer camp here and she had a great time. Soccer in the morning and swimming at the aquatic center after lunch.

Always a great place to take a walk with the family but carry paper spray.

Lots of open space for kids to run. Has a large playground, a public pool with waterslides, a skate park and a junior bike park for bmx. Also has great views of the river and a fish viewing area. Great place to visit any time of year.

Caldwell Park has such tremendous potential, the only thing really holding it back are the vagrants that seem to live here. The city has done a great job in reclaiming some areas of the park that were overrun by individuals who really dont care about cleanliness. Other than a couple questionable areas, this park is beautiful and has plenty to offer

It has really improved over the years with small projects! Great to see an addition added for bmx biking!

This park is very cool! It has a play area for younger kids, in fact it has many different play areas. It also has a skate park. There is a loading dock to the Sacramento River, a walking trail, there is a pool and the park is quite large as well... An awesome place to take the family out for the day or for friends to go hang out..

Beautiful park. The river right there and plenty of things for the kids.

This is a beautiful Park but its so full of homeless trash everywhere you cant even feel safe. Its a real bummer because this could be a great family location

This park is full of crime, druggies & shady people, do not take your family here.

The park is nice and has a lot of large areas to run and play in. Plus the new junior bike park is awesome.

Best park in Redding. My child love the mini bike track and the climbing rocks area.

The park has a pourkur course that my kids love

Great start to the summer Good pricing

It has activities for the entire family. My kids love the bike path and the playground here

Not many masks at any of the gatherings

Nice skatepark, basketball hoops, super cool bike loop and jumps.

The park itself is fabulous! A lot of great areas for different activities. Very scary close to dusk, a lot of homeless and shady characters. Bathrooms are terrible!

Homeless sleeping all over, people hanging out in there cars. Dont go alone. Only area that was nice, is the kids area. Its a real shame.

Enjoyable stop for lunch.

Cool park with lots of things to climb on, bmx track and seating by the river .

Always pleasant taking my kid to play basketball and walking along the beautiful river

Caldwell Park can be a great place to have a wedding,picnics, BBQs, soccer games. The Redding Aquatic Center is also there. Theres a skate and bike park; walking trails. As well as a viewing station for the salmon into the Sacramento River. During the summer months they have movies in the park. Those are free. Plus much more.

Ive taken the dogs to run and get some fresh air as well as my son and I can always spend some great family time together, kayaking walking the trail or at the playground or the bike track there is soccer skating of all kinds the restrooms are easy to locate there are plenty of fountains for water and some are dog friendly plus the park has a couple of Pokemon go stops and a Pokemon gym

Beautiful park. They have done a terrific job cleaning it up after the snow storm. They have some new features that definitely help add to the appeal.

Peaceful and Beautiful

Its good for the kids. Could use more shade at the kids play area. The little water creek things at the same area dont work.

If you want to throw a party for your kids or yourself. Caldwell is the place to do it especially in the summer with the Aquatic Park & Skate & Bike Park. All kinds of sites in the park along side the Sacramento River and observatory Salmon Run.

Love Caldwell park, lots of grass, play equipment, bike park, skate park, river trail.

Great place besides all the homeless...

I prefer the park to the movies no choice park always

I love going to caldwell its a nice place to take the kiddos and the doggo if on a leash the aquatic center is fun when it opens in the summer and there is so much to do bring a ball a frisbee or anything .

Its pretty

This park is the best one in town. Sucks that so many people come here to get high and start trouble. We were attacked by a drunk underage group of people last time we went.

Its a great park! When its kept up on. The bathrooms are absolutely disgusting every time i go there with my nephews. I havent seen too many homeless and drug addicted people the last few times but i now they basically live in that park at night. The city should be focusing a bit more on our public spaces. I now things cost money but thats why we have a community and things called fundraisers!!

Lots of beautiful landscape and open space. Too bad some not so beautiful people choose to occupy it doing illegal activities.

I love this park it is huge and there is a playground for the kids a skate park and lots of grass for playing. It also has the Sacramento River trail that goes through it.

Great park if there wasnt so many bumbs and trashy people hanging around. This place is a haven for crack heads camped by the river. Really would be a nice park with the money the city puts into it. Jest have had problems with people trying to start fights with me trying to hit on my wife, while we are playing with our kids. Would recommend going to another park if you could.

We brought a picnic lunch and parked at the boat ramp in Caldwell Park. Shaded tables are located next to the boat ramp. Cyclists and families strolled by along the Sacramento River Trail. After eating, we took the kids down the pier next to the boat ramp. They spotted a duck carrying her babies on her back. A train passed by on the trestle bridge overhead.

A lot of open space and adorable little playground. Wish there was more bathroom options.

Nice park, its a nice cool place and a homeless Haven along the shoreline... Keep an eye on your children here.

I love Caldwell. This is a great place to spend the day with the family relaxing by the river or at the aquatic center.

It was fun watching my grandson playing flag football

Not maintained very well too many homeless, do not feel safe in the area.

Very beautiful well kept park. Just be mindfull of the transients that wonder through and hang out near the diesel horse bridge.

Great aquatic classes. Pool is spotless and life guards are attentive.

Beautiful Park.. But a lot of creepy homeless and transient people roaming the area...

We were there for enjoy movies in the park on Friday evening good place to see a movie under the Stars

To many drug addicts! Only safe during early day hours. Beautiful park I wish I could let my kids play their!

Great park

Good place to relax and unwind from life or to skate, bike, run and walk...

I take my son to the skate park to ride his bike. Homeless sleeping right next to the skate park. Be careful of needles in playground area. Look entire area over before you let them play.

Cleaned up the park quite nice

This Park is always well taken care of. I love spending time with my girls.

So much fun, grate walk, dogs loved it, kids had a blast walking to sundial bridge, and playing pokemon Go

Like how the park is set up for the kids with the fence and the bike track thing is in literally the perfect location. The only thing saw no police there so the zombies were out roaming. Made a short trip for my son today cause of the zombies.

Getting better since they started clearing out the bums. I did, however, see human poop on one walkway, but hey, they cant all be aces.

Beautiful park on the Sacramento River. Pools w waterside, play structure, skatepark.

Caldwell Park itself is very beautiful, it has a nice view of the river and quite a few things to do in the park other than walk along the trail. The reason Im giving it such a low review is the fact that there is an absolute abundance of transients in this park at any point in time. And lets just say most of my visits Ive been less than pleasant as I am almost always approached asked for money, sometimes asked if I have drugs. Or other times Ill see two people getting into a fight over a backpack or some other Petty thing. But that being said thats most parks in Redding at this point so just a warning this isnt exactly the safest place to bring children.

This place is nice for picnics, swimming, biking, etc. But the homeless population then is large.

Excellent park.. Has a little bit of everything, including the homeless, its only drawback. Restrooms were clean and the grounds were well maintained .
