As far as parks go in Merced, this park isn't bad. Sufficient gazebo shade with a very nice…read moreplayground. The water fountain sucks - do NOT drink from it if you ask me. The trees and such aren't babies so you do get shade in other spots. It's a nice place for my kids to get off the bus at. I wish cell coverage was better in this area but it's not the parks fault :-P Waiting for my kids in a shady area is awesome. Cons: Ants and roaches everywhere by the tables. Please spray there a bit more if possible city of Merced. The water fountain is a minus in my book. Overall: Great park - much better than some "other" parks in Merced.

They have carnival like rides for the littles, a little train ride and a snack bar. The staff was very nice, the place was clean and well kept. They have a unlimited wristband for $10 dollars or tickets are .50 cents each and each ride is 1 ticket. Very affordable. There is a little zoo next door, and a large park as well, with lots of shade. I am so glad we found this little place, our grandsons had a great time and we will be coming here again very soon!

We spent about 3 or so hours playing & exploring. It's really meant for younger ages,probably up until about 10-11. My son is going to be 11 next week & loved it because he loves dinosaurs, digging & science. Not sure i would go out of my way to go back, only because we don't live locally but if we lived in fresno I would consider getting a membership.

This park is right next to Golden High School and near by San Miguel Rancheria Market. The park is very huge and there is something for everyone, big grassy areas to kids play grounds and bath rooms. I saw a lot of people going for walks and walking their dogs. There was a few teenagers roaming around as they were on the lunch but mainly it was empty. There are a lot of garbage cans so you need to go out your way to litter. If I am in the area I will definitely return. I felt safe, very pretty and peaceful. A great way to get some fresh air, take the kids and BBQ.
