A perimeter path good for scooters, a covered eating area, shaded seating, monkey bars and a glider reviewers single out. Restrooms exist but get lukewarm marks, and there is no changing table, which is worth knowing with a baby. The parking lot is small for how busy it gets at times.
One of the few genuinely shaded playgrounds in Santee, with a gazebo holding six picnic tables, restrooms and courts. The shade makes this the reliable summer pick when the rest of East County's playgrounds are too hot to touch.

Very crowded with all age children. Open bright lit field for playing. Great walk path. Meh restrooms. No changing station which is so dumb considering its a childs park. Shaded seating for adults and such. Parking lot small considering the amount of people. Dog friendly.

We love this park. It's peaceful and fun for our kids! There is a concrete walkway around the perimeter. This is convenient for kids on scooters or people walking their dogs on a leash. They have a basketball court and covered area so that you can eat in the shade. There is plenty of parking.
