I will always love the Lake Redding Park. It will always remind me of my childhood. Being from Redding California the natural beauty just totally baffles me!

Nice large manicured park especially for a small city. Connects to Sundial bridge, Turtle Bay discovery center and botanical gardens. There are trails everywhere

Its very pretty with the nice green grass and the shady trees, but its kind of scary. There were a few people who made me nervous, if you take your kids I would recommend going with a group of people for safety.

Beautiful place to sit and relax next to the Sacramento River. Clean and well kept, enjoyable for the whole family or just wanting to breakaway and go for a jog with miles of trails to take you on a journey. Dont leave town until you take a stroll through the park

Aside from a good amount of homeless people, this park is a cute little spot. It’s relatively big so there are a few places to go and have your own area and watch the river. There is also a park for kids and a trail for bickers and joggers.

Nice park, ya theirs homeless, but I’m from Utah, and our parks gave a way bigger problem with homeless then this park had. Son loved it, though I did have to should him to not touch anything that wasn’t grown in the park with his hands, dirty.

Beautiful park in the middle of Redding Ca. Right on the Sacramento river..... Unfortunately its heavily populated by aggressive transients.

This park has changed DRAMATICALLY since I lived across the street in 2013. I saw roughly 15 people who were living there or homeless wondering around and did not feel safe. So sad to see the change in our town.

Heart of the park I went to was calm quiet and was not a lot of homeless people and I had a great experience Ive been in the area all my life and went to the park I was expecting more less of a not so desirable experience turns out that local law enforcement or whoever is placing the park and keeping things under control is doing a good job because there was no riffraff or undesirables around and me and my girlfriend could walk undisturbed and we had a great time we spent about three and a half hours there no incident at all it was lovely definitely going to go back.

The place is wonderful and beautiful. Magical even. Sure there are a few homeless handing out down there trying to stay cool, but thats every town you go to anymore. Theyve never bothered or harassed me so Ive got no problem what so ever sharing the park with them :-)

Nice park with lots of playgrounds and structures for kids as well as some really nice benches and pathways for walking

Review №21

One of the most shadiest parks in Redding. Parents/child care people need to check temperature of equipment. It would be helpful if Redding Parks & Rec or citizen groups did a cigarette but pick up. Maybe post some pictorial graphic signs.

Great spot for horse shoe games

Review №23

Great place to go and relax in the hot weather. It has plenty of benches and concrete tables spread out to enjoy the Sacramento River and the fish veiwing area. Lost a star just because it seems that more homeless people enjoy it more then those who dont realize the beauty of the park that live near by.

I went there last night, yet the bench overlooking the city was fenced due to renovation. I understand why this park is a hidden gem, its such a nice park with great views of DTLA. Perfect date choice! Or to stroll around and enjoy a nice nature walk in the city.

This park is very large. It has play grounds,a skate park, walking trails, alot of picnic tables, a beautiful gazebo that you can reserve for parties, weddings. The Aquatic Center is also there. Plus theres a viewing center for the salmon. If you havent been there you should really go visit

Very pretty, aquatic center, with Sacramento river running the length of it. Lots of BBQ pits and shade. Also kids park. Not recommended for a place to be after dark. The day time is peaceful and relaxing.

A little trashy, but you can manage to find a nice part of the park

Review №41

Fish viewing enclosure at stream bed level is fun at salmon migration times.The boat launching area has a ramp and a dock to tie to.The park is kept surprisingly clean considering it is fairly popular with indigent people and the usual freaks.The Sacramento River Trail goes right thru it as it follows the banks of the river from Turtle Bay Sundial Bridge up to Shasta Dam and back again. Which provides quite a bit of river access to fishermen on foot. Overall a nice place and comfortable for everybody from 0 to 100 years old

5 stars if you dont count the transients. This park is amazing, and I love it, but the transients definitely put a damper on things. Hopefully RPD keeps the pressure up.

Homeless drug addicts yelling at kids, doing drugs out in the open, and towing trash into the river. I feel sorry for RPD having their hands beyond full.

While it is a somewhat nice place to go there is the problem of homeless people coming to help themselves to the event for food to which they just help themselves to.
