Yes, there's water when the City opens the acequias to bring water into the communities. Best time to visit is dusk or dawn. But of course, anytime is the best time. Enjoy!

She really kept the kids, and adult, engaged. While this place is generally only open to schools they are open to the community sometimes, just check out their Facebook page to find out when. I highly recommend checking it out if you get the chance, you completely forget you are even in New Mexico! Such a beautiful forest and so much to learn.

This is a perfect spring or summer spot for a late afternoon picnic. There are picnic tables, a playground and plenty of trees for shades. Each time ive taken a walk here i notice people around me walking their dogs so its also a nice spot for pets.

The Good: Where to begin? Amazing tennis courts, tons of them, well maintained. Two public…read moreracquetball courts! A fire station next door: during big events the staff sometimes bring out the truck and hose the kids. A building to host events. Several long grassy fields for sport. A SHADED PLAYGROUND! (Cottonwood trees, but they do the trick.) Widest bucket seat radius in the city. Tire swing and regular swings. Benches for parents. Large big kid play structure. The Bad: Tire swing is kinda lame-o. Black widow spotted beneath the play structure on two occasions (a reality in NM but come on, this is Los Ranchos, the "too good for Montano or Paseo" 'hood). Structure not good for kids 18 months or younger, and requires close supervision a while thereafter. Crappy cell phone reception on Sprint often means dropped calls. The Verdict: When the kid is old enough, this is a gem. Amazing what a little shade can do, alongside a neighborhood association who cares.

There is a shaded picnic area, and a grassy area with a few mature trees. There is also a small amount of parking, so if you wanted to park here and utilize the bike path on Tramway that would be a possibility. Another cool feature of this park is that it has a few adult pieces of exercise equipment. There is a place for tricep dips and pull-ups, a bench for situps and a chest press. I would feel comfortable coming here without my niece to use the equipment or have a picnic.

It's in my regular rotation, because the convenient location and fact that I've never seen it crowded make it easy to stop by, however briefly, when the kids could use some park time. I'd say this play structure is good for preschoolers but kids much older than 5-6 might find it a little boring or tire of it quickly. A great park to stop by on your way home!
