It is so windy here! How do the hang gliders do it? If you've been to this park, you've probably…read moreseen a ton of these cool kids flying around. This park is right on the edge of a cliff to the Pacifica ocean(with a secured gate, don't worry). On a sunny, but windy day, you'll see a good amount of people hang gliding--pretty cool! There's lots of grass to run around, picnic tables, garbage bins,.. all standard stuff here. Ah, no public restrooms though! There's a full size basketball court, a playground and a separate structure for the little tots. Only a couple set of swings, and if you're the type that loves jumping off of them... there's tanbark instead of sand, just so you know! What's really amazing here is the VIEW. The view of the ocean is so pretty and during a sunset, it's so surreal. Since it does get windy, make sure you wear layers and a good jacket! We're talking strong, there goes my beanie, type of wind. Most of the time, there's only a few people there. It's a small corner park, but does the job. Definitely a nice option to walk around after an early dinner.

This park is very similar to the Palisades Park which is about a mile up north…read more Palisades has a few pluses: 1) it has a sandbox area 2) the basketball courts are separated from the playground area 3) the playground structure meant for older kids is more manageable for toddlers 4) the dog run area is located not too far off On the other hand, Northridge has its own pluses: 1) there are 2 smaller structures for toddlers 2) grounds are kept very clean 3) land is very flat and free of hills 4) less windy compared to Palisades 5) there are toddler swings available 6) parking is available right in front 7) a reasonable amount of children frequent the park See my pictures posted!

I've been going to this park since the 80's when the park wasn't in a good shape. The main reason…read morefor going to this park was to play pick-up basketball when I used to be gung-ho about playing. Even if the court was outdoors, there were always good competition with older Filipino men to go around. Even though I was a kid and younger than them, I gave 'em a few bumps and bruises. After so many knee surgeries, playing basketball is no longer an option for me...let alone playing outdoors on hard concrete. I'll leave that to the younger generation now as I've come to terms that my glory days are way over. Besides, I don't want to be embarrassed as I've become that old Filipino man that I use to clown on the court. Yup, growing old sucks. Since my playing days are long gone, the city and county has poured in a lot of money to improve, not just the basketball court, but the entire park. There's two separate playgrounds for the older kids and toddlers. Both floor decks are made from recycled rubber, which has become the norm for modern playgrounds. It's very soft and bouncy with a little give for extra padding. There's plenty of picnic tables, that is often rented for parties and events. It's also handicap accessible with wheelchair ramps built in for easy access. There's plenty of grassy fields in the picnic areas as well as the baseball field. Dogs are welcomed too and poo bags are available for your disposal. Bring your dog to the old football field just besides the baseball field to let them run around off leash. There's plenty of free parking spaces available in the parking lot, as well as street parking. There's two tennis courts in an enclosed fence that makes it feel like a private court. They have offices and a community center inside, but I've never been in. If you live in the neighborhood, there's pathways that leads you to the park. Be careful though since I've encountered a few coyotes living in the area, including my sister, who lives just a couple of blocks away. It's a good place to be outdoors to get your exercise, walk your dog or just breathe fresh, foggy and cool South San Francisco weather. It's a clean and well-maintained park that's a good place to hang around and staying active.

The park itself is on the corner of Cherry and Park. Shade: the first thing I look for. The big kid playground is under trees and pretty shaded. There are other spots in the park that offer additional shade for picnics. Just look for the trees. It's a good mix of sun and shade. Playground: there is a little kid playground and big kid structure, on opposite ends of the park. Nothing fancy. Swings! There is also a small area for barbecues, a small basketball court and plenty of green grass to run around. All in all, a humble park, but it's got great shade and grass to run around.

Nice multi-use neighborhood park!…read more Pros: Decent sized playground area, along with green spaces for playing tag or hosting birthday entertainment. Picnic area are pretty far from each other. Sunny and not windy for south city Clean and well maintained Private, off the main road Cons: Very limited parking in the lot within the park, and hard to turn out of the lot if you didn't find a spot. You probably have better luck in the neighborhood but it is a longer walk in - bring a stroller or wagon for yo things and kids! Noise from games, along with spectators letting their dogs roam while games are happening. Not great for small children in the adjacent picnic/ playground areas who might not be as polite with dogs. No nearby entry to bbq areas - the only entry is from the dropoff traffic circle. You will need to walk a bit to get to the main playground and picnic areas and if you forget anything in your car, it's a hike!

It's next to a neighborhood so parking can be tough if it's a busy day. We set up shop in the upstairs area with the 2 picnic tables and had a successful event in most ways except one. Unfortunately restroom availability is a problem on the weekends. There is a building that has a restroom that needs a code to enter. However, there isn't anyone there to provide it so it's practically useless during off-hours. Bummer for folks who traveled far. Not sure if I'd be back unless we are visiting our friends who live nearby and they decide to have a party there.

I found this place during COVID, when my boyfriend and I just wanted somewhere we could hang out while without worrying about social distancing. There is AMPLE grass area. It wasn't empty, yet it wasn't crowded at all -- every little family had their own space to run around. My boyfriend and I brought a little picnic there to enjoy on the grass, and it was super lovely to soak up some last moments of summer here. Would definitely frequent this park if I lived nearby.

Looking for a quiet playground in San Francisco without the chaos? This hidden Sunnyside park is…read moreone of the best low-traffic spots for kids -- calm, clean, and actually relaxing. Not flashy -- just functional, peaceful, and easy with kids. It's not the biggest or most popular park in SF, but that's exactly why it works. It feels tucked into the neighborhood instead of crowded or overstimulating, which makes it way more manageable with little ones. We've had picnic days here where my baby just watches the dogs running around, and somehow it turns into its own little show -- simple, low-effort, and surprisingly perfect. If you've ever searched for a quiet park in San Francisco, a low-traffic playground for toddlers, or just somewhere you can actually breathe while your kid plays -- this is one of those spots. Good for: All ages (best for toddlers-~8) What matters: * Playground: Yes (rubbery cushion flooring -- great for little ones) * Baby-friendly: Open field for picnics + watching other kids/dogs * Bathrooms: Yes (each restroom has a changing table -- super helpful) * Dog-friendly: Yes (dogs allowed in the park, but not inside the children's play area) * Seating: Several large picnic tables + scattered benches * Shade: Very limited -- can get hot on sunny days * Parking: Limited -- expect to walk in or get dropped off * Terrain: Mostly flat with paved paths (easy for strollers and wheelchairs) * Accessibility: Wheelchair-friendly layout overall Real-life insight: This is one of those parks that doesn't stand out at first -- but once you're there, you realize how much easier it is than busier San Francisco playgrounds. Less chaos, more space, and a calmer overall vibe. Pro tips: * Go on an overcast day -- this park shines when it's cool out since there's very little shade * After rain, bring a towel so you can dry off the play structure and still get a full park day in * Best for low-key days when you want something simple, not overstimulating

Even for me! Some thing unique other than swings and slides. Gives the kids a chance to actually use their body and strength. Test their own abilities. Only thing I don't like is, the mats are all holey and broken on some areas. Dangerous when a kid trips or sprain their ankles. I informed my babies to watch out for it and avoid it. I hope the groundskeeper will see it and fix it.
