Ok so we wanted to try a new park, so I gather up the kids and we head over. This park has a kids…read moresplash pad (I assume is open during the summer months.) The playground has a large rocket which is at least 30 feet high! It includes two totally enclosed tube slides and another 2-4 lower slides. In fact it was so tall I was afraid my 2-4 yo's would be too scared to go up to top, but nope! It took them 2 to 3 times walking up the stairs to gather the courage, but once they did it trying to get them off the slide to put on jackets became more of an issue. We had a water gun fight, ate some snacks and they played til they were wore out. I heard this isn't the grandest neighborhood, although I didn't experience any issues, I am not familiar enough with the AV area to give a honest opinion: good or bad about that so know that my star rating is based solely on my experience inside the park not the neighborhood. The pluses for me was that they had a clean play area and the splash zone is right next to the two grounds. One set is for say 5 yo and up and a more milder toddler area all in same eye path, so you could easily watch two sets of kids. There is a lot of grass areas so you can camp out, have a picnic and make it a day trip with young ones. There is ample parking with a well lit lot. The soccer and other fields were brightly lit so you can play organized sports at night. What I did have a issue with is: The playground isn't lit up at night. (see pics below) which I truly don't understand. We waited thinking that the timer hadn't spring forward with time, but after looking around noticed two things the light structure is set for a dim yellow almost amber light while all the fields have super bright white lights and that one light was actually on so the other 2-3 lights just hadn't been maintained! Shame on parks and rec to not thinking of the safety of children especially during spring time when families are coming back out in larger groups. And next a question for parks and rec. Why does the playground where our most precious gems would play have the dimmest lights? You are putting children at risk of falling, being touched or hit inappropriately or worse (use your imagination!) This should be the brightest lights the park has not the darn soccer field. How is any mom and/or dad going to go let the little ones play while waiting for their older ones to finish up a practice or game with little to no lights? That needs to be addressed ASAP!!! and that is the reason my rating is only a 3 star, because I think that dusk time visits would be unsafe for most families.

There is one spot I think they missed a great tree spot to cover all the parental views, but that's just a small inconvenience. They would have earned 5 stars of there was a splash pad, water mister or something there! I just don't understand why every park in the AV doesn't have a water element as hot as it is here. Temps range 90+° as early as April until as late as October. (Since they can afford to water the fields mid-day in the summer the water and cost isn't a issue) I didn't visit restrooms so I can't comment on them, the park is clean and well maintained. I appreciate that the water fountain is clean and in working condition also that they have a doggie bowl for our family pets. That was well thought out Also it is kind of handicap accessible for kids that need extra assistance. They have ramps onto equipment and they have a rocking type ride that a child who was there in a chair was able to enjoy. It would be great if a swing for them could be added idk how but something that can lock in a chair and let them also enjoy that. But the fact it isn't sand means a lot for some kids I thought that was very well thought through. I will bring the baby back again she enjoyed herself

I brought my takeout to a nice table in the shade. Pandemic points! Every time I come to this park I get to trade smiles with somebody different. I moved to the area for a reason, the people. This park is located in an area of the Antelope Valley that looks like a country rap video directed by Clint Eastwood starring everyone. I traded hair compliments with the most beautiful little girls I've ever seen. Rainbow beads, you are my sunshine "No YOUR hair is prettier!" In return I got one of the best smiles in my life from their father. Why do I get something better back when I give a compliment, a hug or a smile! I don't know, but this park is a premier place to practice. I left with a skip in my step. A full tummy. Cool pictures. Great advice. And. The distinct impression that this place and one smile could change the world. I drove away playing "We can work it out" from Stevie Wonder. I didn't make it out of the parking lot before I got another smile and a nod. Everybody should come check out this park. Bring your picnics, team practices, YouTube fans, your biggest smile and your family.:)

The grounds and fields all seem to be very well kept up, and the restrooms seem to be in decent shape. The park is also located in a nice area, far enough away from main streets and the highway to be decently quiet, but not so far away as to feel too remote. I'd recommend this park!
