  • Larry Phong - PAS Architects★★★★★

    San Martin Park is truly a gem in the community. The variety of play equipment is amazing — from classic swings to creative climbing structures that keep kids engaged for hours. The zipline is a favorite — always a thrill for the little ones (and even some grown-ups!), and the whimsical carriage play structure adds a magical touch that sparks imagination. What really stands out is the diversity of activities available. There’s something for every age and energy level, making it a great spot for families to come together. Parks like this are so important — not just for play, but for connection, learning, and growing. Public spaces like San Martin Park are a cornerstone of healthy, vibrant communities, and we’re lucky to have it.

    San Martin Park is nice. Has a lot of grass area to run around, play soccer, football, etc. Grass even has small mounds to add hills to a run. Has two full basketball courts. Has two playgrounds one for 2-5 year Olds and one for I believe 5-12 year Olds. The 2-5 year old playground is In caged so that is nice so your child doesn't run off. Has picnic benches in the middle so the playground surrounds that area in sand with play structure, swings, and fixtures for kids to play on. The 5-12 year old area has a couple slides, fixtures, Cinderella seating area and a 5-10 foot zip line. That area also has sand for kids. Pretty cool park. Usually not too packed.
