My childhood. Has a fantastic view and isnt too bad on a hot summer day because of the wind. It has a rec center which has a basketball gym, ping pong, pool, and air hockey and other sign-up classes. They have a playground and a nice pathway.

Nice walking path around park. Not flat and level. Little bit of incline involved but nothing major.

FINALLY!!! A chance to get out.. Amazing how you dont realize the things you take for granted until it is taken away. A food for thought there...

Great community asset!!!They have a ball field, playground, and outdoor basketball courts.Inside they have a gymnasium with indoor basketball courts. I think they also do volleyball in there.They have a game room with a pool table and ping pong. I think these games are free to use, you just have to check out the balls/paddles from the front desk.Finally they have a nice selection of classes / activities for children. Everything from foreign languages to dance and karate.I believe you can rent of space inside or outside for parties and events too. A great resource for the community!

Great dog park with beautiful view of the ocean on clear days. Best it has a dust pan w handle and rake for poo so no need for plastic bags. Nice dog water fountain bowl too.

Very beautiful basketball courts. Ive never seen a basketball court get so much use. The kids use them during the day, but at night the adults take over the courts with a serious game of basketball. During the week a basketball class is taught here and the instructor is amazing, would highly recommend you sign your kids up. The park also boasts a community center, a dog park on the east end of the park with very friendly people, and a baseball diamond with lights for evening use.

There are two playgrounds, (one connected to the community center), that are fenced in and meant you younger children. The park one isnt great to wheel strollers in to, but otherwise is a good place for those with toddlers.

There are multiple areas of this park on a large hill. At the very top you have a parking lot with a large baseball field, a dog park, a small playground, as you walk down, you have some tables and picnic areas and a larger wood chips playground and at the very bottom you have another playground, the actual community center and a basketball court and probably some restrooms (I didnt see them today). Its on a hill slope so not ideal for bike riding and there are some steps to go from middle to bottom areas. Not busy this morning, but nicely tucked away with nice views.

Great feature in the community. My daughter attends dance classes here for very reasonable prices. Seems to be a lot of other activities offered. Will probably spend a lot more time here as the kiddos grow up!

Came here for a birthday party. There is plenty of space for the kids to run around and a nice playground for them to play in. It was a long walk to the restroom from the playground, so be prepared to walk a distance. There were plenty of benches and a nice grassy area for kids activities.

This park has the only dog park near west chula vista. It is adequate but I wish it had a bigger dog enclosure and grass. The greater park where dogs must be on leash is great, plenty of grass, places to play and lounge, and good walking trails for a leisurely stroll.

My daughter took her two dogs to this park on Jan 18, 2017. While at the park a German Shephard and its owner entered the park and the owner did not release his dog. The dog became mad at its owner and turned on my daughters male 13 mth old pup, and another dog a pit bull joined in on the attack. At this pointother dogs owners became involved trying to separate thedogs. The pitt nailed mydaughters pup and turned on mydaughter. Other ownersbeat on the pittuntil it finally releashed thepup. By this time both mydaughter and her dog were inpretty bad shape. The stupid pittowner who was a white lady inher mid to late 30s approachedmy daughter to see if she and her dog were ok and made a dumb Aremark and saw that my daughter and her dog were pretty banged upand took off quickly.An off duty EMT was at the park to assist both my daughter andher dog. When my daughter got into her car, another dog fightbroke out with the GermanShephard and another dog.This park needs to have onsite city supervision while the park is opened, bad park stay away not good.
