Beautiful park with ample shaded spots to relax and watch the ducks. You can always find a nice spot to be completely alone. It has a lovely stream that runs into a big lake where you can fish. The playground is small in size mainly for very young children ages 1-5. Great landscape and a nice path to scooter around on for the older kids.

Beautiful Park, well managed, clean restrooms, plenty of parking Fun for all ages and its a great little local Fishing Hole. Its catch and release so the first are sporty. Then again so are the fisherman... THEY CAN BE PRETTY COMPETITIVE ABOUT THE FISHING SO BE SURE TO BRING YOUR A GAME. Just a few things I forgot BBQ Pits, Jungle Gym, and dog friendly. Its in the middle of a safe, clean and friendly community.

Walking around the lake is so much better for my soul than walking around a city block. Emma Zen

I like this park. Beautiful lake, another little lake up top, with a mini stream connecting the two with a nice little waterfall. I never see homeless on the playground but around the lake. Some questionable characters parking in the parking lots near the lake and the upper parking area. Overall, a nice place to go by yourself or with your family and friends, just be aware of your surroundings.

Big and spacious, overall for a park its clean. The bathrooms had seatcovers, papertowels, soap and stocked with toilet paper. Everyone was keeping distance and being safe.

One of our favorite parks. Its beautiful. We love the walking paths, the little rivers running through it, the little bridges, the squirrels, the kids play areas, the pond and the ducks. Lots of parking too. Its a very busy park on Sundays though.

Great park and the best fishing you will find in a small city park. I myself have landed some very nice fish here. 2 carp both over 20 lbs. Around 30 bass in the 2 to 3 lb. 3 over 4 lbs and 1 over 5 lbs. All this in the last 5 years. The park is beautiful. A nice place to walk around. JC Johnny

Eisenhower Park is simply one of the loveliest parks I have ever seen! I spend lots of time there for the beautiful grounds so exquisitely landscaped and the total sense of peace. I go there with my lunch, to read in an atmosphere of silence, or simply to feed the ducks! Its for sure my go topark!

Actually I went today with my girlfriend who lives nearby. The park is built around a sizable pond where numerous Canada geese and mallards reside year round. A pump station system is installed on the higher ground of the park so that water Cascades from a high point down over rocks into the pond, and there are outfall pipes toward the middle of the pond also, which keep motion imparted to the body of water. The water appears to be quite clean. There are turtles also, and a handful of picnic benches and tables staged about.

Very nice park to go out with the family for a picnic day. It has picnic tables and fire grills. Lots lots of ducks so bring the old dry bread with you to feed them!

Review №11

Great place for a picnic! Nice water features and grills available for public use. Lots of seating, shady spots, sunny spots. There is a nice paved loop for lap walking. Lots of water birds for watching. I use this place as a spot for dog training and getting exposed to distractions. Everyone around is very polite, asking permission to pet my dog, and very friendly with chats. Tidy and clean. Lots of trashcans available.

This is a real park. Ducks, turtles, fish and lots of hills and places to sit. Theres even a playground for kids. There are a lot of duck droppings and some tables should be cleaned but thats very minor. Just bring something to sit on. Great for jogs or the famous walk at the park

Beautiful park with a nice pond. I brought some bread but wish i wouldve brought more for the fish, turtles and ducks. Theres lots of them and they love bread. Brought my nephew and our bikes because of the small hills here. Great for picnics too. Overall, we had lots of fun.

This park is great for walking! We loved seeing all the baby ducks! The hills arent too extreme, which made the walk much more enjoyable! The park is clean, and the restrooms were as well. Lovely place!

Review №31

Despite the limited closure of the park it was so a peaceful place to visit and to picnic. One word of advice, if the geese approach you while you are eating, ignore them, it is just their way of begging for scraps. They will waddle away once they realize you are not their food source. Above all, enjoy the outdoors, respectfully.

What a beautiful park. This park is on a hill but I think that gives it a character. It feels like its made of four or five little parks: the pond; the creek; the hill (there used to be a zoo here as well but now closed), and the hilltop. The interesting thibg about this public park is that its right next to a shopping center, so patrons seem to like bringing meals from those places into thr park. The pond is not very clean but still, there are fish and turtles living in it. It is also on Lincoln Avenue which is busy but the its nice and quiet in the park somehow.

This park is decent. The parking lots are small & scattered around, so you might have to drive around a couple times during peak hours to get a spot. There are 2 playground areas - one for toddlers and little kids (2 to 5) and one for older kids. The playground flooring, which consists of dry wooden chips, is not ideal because if a kid falls down on it, its gonna hurt. A soft rubber flooring, like at Ambriz park, wouldve been better. Also, the playground equipment is very old and not as sophisticated. The artificial pond is pretty small and not the most attractive. But its still a decent getaway place to walk around with your dogs or kids. I still like coming here once in a while because its bigger and has way less dust than Ambriz park. Among local parks, my favorite is Tri-City park in Fullerton.

The park aint so great. But the lake is some good fishing. Decent catfish bit and if you are a bass fisherman practice here. I have meet B.A.S.S. tourney fishers there to hone there skills on the Huge smart bass that call it home.Fishing these water will kick your butt and put you on your A game.

Great place for walking and connecting with nature. Playgrounds for those with children, lake for fishing, peaceful sounds from the waterfall. Plenty of tables, bbqs, benches for picnics. Besides ducks, geese, Canadian geese and coots there are squirrels! Ive enjoyed this park for many years now. They used to have various animals (goats, deer and even a turkey!) in a fenced off coral which has been empty for a long time.

Picnic benches, a little creek/pond, and enough trees for decent shade. Seems like a nice spot to quietly read or have a picnic with the family. There is also play equipment towards the back.

When I was a kid my mom used to bring me here to feed the Ducks. I dont have kids of my own but as my nephews and nieces were growing up I would take them there to feed the Ducks. Its kind of a tradition. My sister had her wedding photos done there, and we used to have birthday parties there all the time.The water used to be absolutely disgusting, caked with bird poop, feathers, debris, and all kinds of disgusting stuff. But it actually looks like they keep it up now. It looked so much better than I remember. The weekends youll find a lot of photo shoots going on, birthday parties kinsenyeta, and weddings.You can feed the Ducks, but keep in mind that bread is not good for them. We read that they like lettuce and corn. They eat the corn like crazy but didnt touch the lettuce.The park goes on and on, its pretty big. There used to be two playgrounds, but Im not sure if theyre still are. We only came up on one. I remember you had to walk pretty far to the second one, so we might not have gone too far. Or they may have just gotten rid of it I dont know but I did not see it.Theres a couple little Lakes the big one of course and little streams going from each. Lots of beautiful birds. Ducks , geese, we even saw a dove. Some other birds that I could even tell you what they are.There was some police activity while we were there. They had a couple they had seem to pull out of the bathroom with a bunch of bags that they were going through. Always go into the bathrooms with your children.There are several parking lots, but on the weekends parking can be quite Limited. We were there this past Sunday and one of the parking lots was not even open, and we actually got the last parking spot in one of the open ones.Very fun and cute Park.
