Nice park with lots of green grass.

Lovely, green, neighborhood course. Lots of neighbors visit the park and playground. Just be a little patient and let them know youre throwing. You will have to avoid some backyards on hole 4 and 6. Dont think too much about going OB, just throw it confidently with a good fade. Its a good morale boost course. You should be able to throw at least a few under par and a birdie is possible on every hole. I can usually get a couple eagles, which feels great. You can really let loose on holes 2 and 3, just make sure no ones on the playground for hole 3. The hardest holes are 7 and 9. The hill on 7 is steeper than it looks. Trust your backhand hyzer on hole 9 and throw it hard around the bend. Respect the course and everyone on it and it will treat you very well!

Great for sledding! I dont have a picture of the hilly part but there were a lot of people out there with us this afternoon sledding, it was great! We enjoy the playground section too when there isnt snow. :) Beautiful views from this park.

The playground has been updated relatively recently. There are now two structures: one for kids 2 - 5 and the other for older kids. They seem to be well designed to meet the abilities of those ages. There is also a section on the younger side that has musical devices: drums and bells that my baby has been able to enjoy from about 6 months. Lawn is fairly well cared for and was kept very green this year. Fyi: No public restrooms because it is in a residential area.

Park has a beautiful view. Needs more shade only had 1 table with a small shade over it. This park would also be nice with some more tables and maybe some outside cooking grills. I didnt see any bathrooms. This park would be a great location for a swimming pool.

Disc golf review only. 9 holes. short course ~24 minutes to play it all. 1 hole over 400 and a few over 300. bring a midrange disc. OB is generally the road or someones back yard with a brick fench. hole 3 and * is near play park so might have to wait a few minutes for the kids to clear away. overall good course great scenery.

This is a hilly park offering various activities in a nice family environment with beautiful Sandia mountains in view. Ive seen people play golf disc, picnicking, football practices, and playground for children. Also, its a great place to train for stamina or hold special events.

Gorgeous park, tucked away from the bustlings of Lomas and I-40. The view of the Sandia Mountains are spectacular. The rise at the center of the park is also a great place for meditation as its surrounded by noise dampening trees while still maintaining an excellent view. This park was well worth stopping for.

This park is pretty fun especially in the winter. There is a lot of large Hills and you could go sledding. Also the whole park is set up to play Frisbee golf. There is a playground for the children as well. Could be a little bit Greener and cleaner but this is New Mexico so cant be too picky.

Leashed dogs should be allowed and poop bags posted on the rules board. Other than that its beautiful and a good size

Review №29

I am used to playing much more difficult courses in Colorado, yet I found that the most difficult aspect of this course was the consistency of the wind. That, and the fact that the sign clearly states that only service dogs and guide dogs are welcome here, yet I had to wait for some blatantly arrogant local who was walking both of his dogs illegally around the park as though it was a canine restroom facility, which it is not! Perhaps I should have just shot first and offered explanations later, after potentially causing injury to either him, or one of his dogs...

I love this park they have a beautiful area for grass that you can walk on lay down in they have a gazebo also have a really good structure for children to play on. Its in a very nice quiet safe neighborhood. Even if you just want a good place to go walk theres a nice walking Track around the entire park very nice and its not a straight back and forth path either its got some curves and edges to its nice.

I wish more parks looked more like this one, although after seeing rattle snakes, it just goes to show that you cant have it all. A perfect place, just missing a water view.

It has a great playground that is different from the others. It has a separate area for 2-5 year olds. The older kid area has a third level with a ladder going up to two tall slides. Great views of Albuquerque and the mountains. Great place for a picnic, even while watching the kids play. Picnic tables are scattered through out and near the playground.

My review of: Vista Hills Park in Rio Rancho, New MexicoI have found the land of the Teletubbies! Thats what I thought of when we pulled into the tiny parking lot at the bottom of this steep hilled park. This cute park has very green grass, Frisbee golf course, and a wood chipped play area. The play structure is castle looking and has zigzag slides that are very fun. There are picnic benches and a water fountain but no restroom.
