Gabrielino Park is tucked in a residential neighborhood near the UCI campus. The park rules…read moreactually say that it's only for community residents and guests but I'm not sure how they would verify or enforce that. I think you'll be fine as long as you're not causing any trouble. There's no private parking lot but there is ample street parking surrounding the park. The park has basketball courts, a kids playground and swings, a soccer field, some grills and tables, and even a small gated dog play area. It's a nice park that is secluded and peaceful.

Street parking, closest to playground would be along Twain. Uphill path to swings (2 toddler, 2 big…read morekids) over wood chips with no shade and one seesaw. Further the uphill path is the playground geared older over foam terrain. Unfortunately not an entirely clear line of sight between play equipment and swings. No shade over play equipment except for the two dirt diggers, but there's a unique train car that can seat a bunch of kids. A few picnic tables and trash cans. At top of hill is a dog run. There's an adult basketball court and a half court with lower hoops. A flat grass field with what appears to be movable goals. Restrooms appeared closed.

The park has a huge grassy area in the middle surrounded by a basketball court, bocce court, and a kids playground structure. There are no tennis courts and restrooms and I'm surprised they don't have pickleball courts. There is also a private pool area and clubhouse building seemingly only for the residents. Overall it's a quiet and well-maintained park that can (mostly) be enjoyed by the public and not just those who live around there.

What I liked about this park was the absence of sand and instead there were wood chips. Much easier experience for mummy's to wipe down their toddlers before getting into the car! Sadly, it is not shaded in the day time but luckily it isn't busy in the evenings. It is adjacent to a basketball court and a private community pool.

This park has really gone downhill. Went because it was on a OC list of recommended parks…read more The swing seats were COVERED in mud, mildew and bird poop. It was the first time I really felt like if I put my kid in there, her shorts would be black from the swing afterward. The swings are rusty and uneven, and hearing another kid, are very loud and squeaky and need WD-40. The equipment is COVERED in spiderwebs, dirt, bird poop, sand (like, a LOT even in the higher levels, more than you'd expect), and I even saw a BROWN WIDOW!! Made me so paranoid that my daughter would get stung by one hiding somewhere. The whole park needs a hose and some pest control. In addition, looks like people disrespect the park - tons of litter and trash on the ground. Tons of burst latex balloons everywhere. All in all, we didn't stay long - it was the first time in a long time I've thought "oh this park is really gross, I don't want my kid here." I'm not coming back to this one.
