A few of us came out here for a picnic, and we were WOWed with how clean and vast this park is. We are all Mesa residents, so this was never really on our radar. There is a HUGE playground, multiple swings, and a zipline. Many picnic tables to reserve, and lots of parking! We absolutely loved the park, but our gaggle of toddlers loved it more!

This is a pretty nice city park with multiple parking lots, a walking path around a "lake", lots of…read moregreen space, seating, and a playground. There's also a scouting activity area that looked interesting and seems to be for scouting troops to have campfires and outdoor activities. Technically there's also a hummingbird garden but unless you parked in a specific spot or know where to look, you'd miss it as its small and tucked in a far corner. While small, it is nice (aside from the pile of cigarette butts some jrrk left) with some nice plants, a short walking path, and a water feature. It has a lot of desert plants but I was surprised not to see more spring flowers this time of year. The park is nice and the water seemed clean and not smelly, but I wish we had more areas of denser vegetation like the hummingbird area to walk around in. It does seem pretty well kept up and I noticed several newer desert willows growing. At 8 am on a spring Sunday, it was busy with people walking, fishing, at the playground, and doing tai Chi, but parking wasn't an issue.

Everything on the ground is cool- swings, sewsaw, music, log walking, slides, and down below next to the lake is the huge splash pad. Wasn't on so not sure of safety.

I mostly come here to run…read more Riverview Park does make me wish I was a kid again because they have so many cool things for the little ones to enjoy. The parks I grew up playing at were nothing like this one. There is a 50-foot tall Genesis climbing tower, playgrounds with a rubber surface to protect from falls, a 60-foot long caterpillar mesh rope climbing structure and a splash pad. The lake is stocked for those that like to fish. There are picnic tables, a fountain and ramadas that can be reserved in advance. It is nice to come here in the evenings and see people going on walks and families gathering for celebrations. We all need to get out and enjoy the outdoors more in my opinion. Riverview Park is next door to Sloan Park and the Mesa Riverview shopping area. There is so much in this area to do and enjoy. I have really enjoyed living a short drive away from here the past couple of years. Riverview Park is located right off the 202 freeway and has plenty of parking.

It has so many…read morethings for them to do at this part for all his climbing adventures etc. and a little tiny park for my daughter who is no where near able to climb the big park like her brother. Only downside to this park is that there is absolutely No bathroom even remotely close within walking distance. So if you need to go you gotta bolt out of there in your vehicle unless you are fortunate to live close by to run to and from. Not the case for us so lots of whining about leaving. Other than that this is in our top 5 local parks.

Welcome to Homestead Park. Here we have two playground areas with the larger one having two…read moreislands. Island 1 has three slides (two open, one tube). There are two ways to get up, scale a vertical wall or climb a ladder. Neither of these are friendly for small or young kids and they will need help getting up. On Island 2 there is a roller slide and young kids can get up here. In the same area there is also fake rocks connected with "spider webs" and two zipcords - one rope and one chair. All in all my 5yr old can do it all without assistance but the 3yr old needs help. The second playground are is geared towards smaller kids and has one slide. There is also a field to play ball games or fly kites. A pickleball court and a basketball court. Swings and two ramadas. In all, not a bad little park. -1 star for the entire place being limiting for littles.

Gilbert Regional Park is near my house and it's a great spot to workout, play, or relax…read more It features many sport courts- pickleball, tennis, volleyball and basketball. While there's a lot of pickleball courts, I've seen them full with a queue to play. I haven't seen this with the tennis courts or other sport courts. There's a playground with a play structure, swings, slides, a zip-line and more. It's on a hill so there's multiple levels to play on. There's a large splash pad for older children and a separate area for younger children, so less likely your toddler gets run over by a pre-teen not paying attention. The one drawback is there's not a lot of shady places to hide from the blistering summer sun. There's a large grass field but it's sloped and thus not useful for playing flag football or soccer. I believe it's built that way to watch performances at the pavilion. If there are flat grass fields at this park, I have yet to find them; they would be a welcome addition. At the end of the park there's a lake with a walking path around it. The largest ramada is on the lakefront and looks to 100-150 people. They have smaller ramadas around to rent as well. Overall, Gilbert Regional Park is a nice clean new park with many amenities. Everything is still in good working condition and there's a lot of open space where everyone isn't concentrated into a small area.

Very clean and so much fun!!…read more There's a toddler area and a big kid jungle gym. Also a fantastic splash pad that is fenced in. It gets really busy though. Go early in the morning to beat the crowds (I think we were there by 9, it got busy by 10).
