I came here randomly on a Thursday because it was scorching hot, and this is the closest splash pad to me. To my surprise, there was an evening farmers market. The atmosphere was so amazing. There was excitement coming from the park and waterpark. There were tons of local vendors. I truly enjoyed all the sampling at the farmers market. There's tons of green space with courts available - like basketball and tennis. Corn hole was being played as well. It was so much fun! read more

SUMMER CONCERT REVIEW: The city of Dublin hosts free weekly summer concerts from June through August at Emerald Glen Park on Thursday evenings. This also coincides with their farmer's market. I came here last Thursday to catch "Pop Fiction", a cover band. I arrived at 5:40 PM, 20 minutes before the concert, so I walked around to check out the farmer's market. There are food trucks, fruits, veggies, seafood, pastries, and lots more. The concert is at the Amphitheater, which has a couple tiers of lawn area. Early birds take up the back section and set up their tents and tables. We had a few folder chairs, and brought our own food for a little picnic. "Pop Fiction" was high energy and did a good job with songs from the '70's to today. They were a little pitchy at times, but everyone was just having a good time. As the evening progressed, more people came up front to dance or sway. There's no shade on the lawn, so definitely bring sunscreen and hats. The park itself is huge, but I didn't have time to check it all out. We enjoyed the concert and picnic. We'll probably be back for another one before the summer is done. read more

After a leisurely stroll in Brentwood, my family and I found ourselves with ample time before we could indulge in a buffet meal in Dublin. As we explored the area, we stumbled upon this delightful playground with a refreshing water feature. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to discover that it was conveniently located next to The Wave indoor waterpark. The playground boasts a spacious parking lot equipped with four EV ChargePoint stations. The playground itself is well-maintained and clean, featuring two well-equipped bathrooms. My daughter and her cousins thoroughly enjoyed their time playing and splashing around in the water, making this a truly memorable experience for the entire family. read more

This park is so amazing and beautiful also has outdoor water for the kids and a lot of things to do

One of the best parks/playgrounds for children under 7 on a hot hot hot day! Ample parking, but you have to walk far. I didn't think there was much field for free play and not a lot of picnic tables. So probably not great for parties, but perfect for a half day family day. Thanks for the free splash pad, City of Dublin! read more

This park will always be special to me. It is always so clean, well lit and well maintained. They have a great tennis court, basketball court, baseball field, soccer field and skate park. We spend a lot of time here in the spring and summer. And it is the only park that I feel safe walking my dog in past 9 p.m. There is always ample lights. And there is a spot on the hill that belongs to a king and will always be sacred to me... Love you King H... Love Emerald Glen Park... read more

This is a long-overdue review of my favorite park. It holds a special place in my heart since it's where we celebrated our son's fifth birthday party. We rented a covered spot with clean BBQ grills and restrooms. It was the perfect spot. During the pandemic, this was one of the first places where I felt a little back to normal. There are always friendly people around, and the area near the water fountain is our favorite place to eat take-out food. Our families met for our Thanksgiving potluck lunch the last time we were here. We brought extra tables and chairs and enjoyed a casual lunch on a beautiful day. I loved spending family time here. read more

5 stars for this huge park that has it all, and everything that's here comes in a size large!! Multiple soccer fields, multiple baseball/softball fields, 2 basketball courts, multiple parking lots, restrooms, batting cages, tennis courts, just a lot cause there is a lot of space here. So you can imagine that plenty of people frequent this place, and they do, but because it's so big, it never feels crowded. There's also a rose garden and water fountain here along with The Wave water park. And this huge park is super clean, i will definitely be coming here again!! read more

Now, THIS is what I call a beautiful park! Emerald Glen, you are so damn dreamy. Since the start of COVID, I've kind of become a park bum. I never used to hang out at the parks all like that, but now I crave for park excursions. Picnics. Naps. Laying out and getting some sun. Reading a book. Yelping outside. This has become my new luxury. Some parks are better than others for this, but Emerald Glen is state of the art babyyyy! So, let's talk about it; This. Park. Is. HUGE! Oh naw, naw... this ain't yo typical neighborhood park. Emerald Glen comes equipped with batting cages, soccer fields, basketball courts, swimming pools, water slides, barbecue pits, bocce ball courts, tennis courts, picnic areas, field space and so much more. Parking is ample and there are clean restrooms on site. They have a large kids play area and huge grassy fields that make it super easy to spread out and social distance. They keep this place immaculately clean and well manicured. There are a few paved walking paths that circle around and through the park. It's perfect for walking, running, or even for just a quick stroll. My favorite part of the park are those vibrantly green fields. Sooo much space to spread out and lounge around. I had a little picnic here and it was so enjoyable! When the weather is warm, this is the perfect place to chill out. You can find a nice shady spot near the trees. It's a busy park as you can imagine. But since it's so large, it doesn't feel like it's busy. This definitely one of the prettiest Bay Area parks that I've been to. When I'm in the area again, I place to stop back here again to have another picnic. read more

You can swim or host a water event at the Wave! You can picnic! You can play! You can watch a wonderful kite showcasing on Sundays I love this park! read more

Wow, Emerald Glen Park is one of the best for family picnics and play dates. They have picnic tables but it's just as good to set-up matts and portable tents on the grass if you can find some shade. Speaking of grass, its really green, clean, and well-maintained. Guess the grass is greener in Dublin, LOL! They don't seem to have lots of jungle gyms/playgrounds for kids. However, they have a place for basketball along with a baseball, soccer, tennis, and skateboarding. I also love the many tree-lined walkways around the park. For those of you who like playing in the water, the Dublin Wave Park is co-located on the same property. Will definitely plan to come here more often. They have a fairly clean central restroom facility and lots of trash and recycle bins throughout. Also, multiple parking lots to access the park. I recommend using Google Map to navigate to Dublin Wave to find parking near the open picnic areas and proximity to restrooms and trash bins. You know, for those diaper changes after a big meal. read more

Gorgeous park in Dublin with a really pretty rose garden in full bloom despite it being August. There are 2 play areas surrounding a water play area for kids. Plenty of space for picnic blankets and we even saw a few birthday parties (both reserved and non reserved) at the park. Right next door is the Wave and we can't wait to check it out! read more

There's a lot of playground structure, a sand box, and splash pad all in one spot. Surrounding the play area are trees that gives shade to tired mommies (and daddies). If that's not enough for you, there's a nearby waterpark called The Wave, adults get in for about 15$ and small kids 4$. This park is a gem and worth the drive (from Hayward). It is clean, well maintained and manicured ambiance. read more

We started from Emerald Glen Park on our group's hike of the Tassajara Creek Trail and then walked the perimeter of the Park on our return from the trail. This is probably the most impressive city park that I've seen. First, it is huge park at 48 acres. The amenities? Baseball, softball and soccer fields, batting cages, cricket pitches, lighted tennis and basketball courts, bocce ball courts, lighted skateboard park, picnic areas with grills, playground, and a rose garden. There are plentiful parking and clean and well maintained restrooms. There's more. The park has an Aquatic Complex named The Wave, which consists of an indoor and outdoor pool, Splash Zone and a waterslide. Impressive park. Residents in the area are so fortunate to have this park in their backyards. I wouldn't mind visiting and enjoying this park again. read more

We come to this park often due to how much space is available for public use. Our favorite is walking around the rose garden when it's in full bloom! This park also hosts the Dublin farmers market and concert series during the summer. Great for walking, kicking a soccer ball around, or flying a kite! read more

Awesome park, huge and spacious. Just very crowded for parking unfortunately. We stayed around the kids area. We brought some water shoes and my toddler son loved running around the play fountain area. Great little play structures with slides and swings for various ages. read more

It was my first time to visit this park and it's quite lovely! We did a small little picnic in the picnic area which you can reserve. There's lots of tables to sit as well as garbage and wash stations. The restrooms are also right there. They have a large soccer field that folks were running around and just enjoying the sunny day. There was also a playground for you kiddos and big kids. The closest parking lot is actually in the lot for The Wave. Otherwise the larger parking area is a walk across the sports field. Definitely a great place to walk, run, play, walk your dog, hang out socially distanced with your friends. I hope to come back again some day. read more

Another great park we discovered in Dublin. This park is huge and has so many different activities you can do. There is a pretty good side kids playground, slides, sandbox and also a super fun kids water area. And I'm the other side of the park, there are basketball courts, skatepark and baseball field. Plenty of space to ride your bike or scooter. A bonus on Saturdays there is a farmers market, so grab your food and have a picnic right after. read more

One of the best parks I've gone to so far. There's just so much to do. There is an indoor swim area for those that want swim lessons. Outside there are many obstacles on play on like toddler-safe rocks to climb, normal playground, etc. The open area is also huge here! We saw many people flying kites (I will be buying my own kite now). The landscaping is so beautiful--white pedals falling from trees reminds me of the almond orchards in Woodside. Dublin is so much closer than Woodside though! I came here to create content for my small business (@thecolorspaceco) and it felt so nice to create content without worrying about coming into contact with other people bc there was just so much open space! It is a huge park! It seems very safe as well. read more

Such a great get away with the family young and old. There is so much space at this park for everyone.

The rose garden is nice and the park has plenty of places to pop up a tent and bbq. read more

Beautiful park, nice for walking and seeing people playing various sports. It has 2 very nice playgrounds for kids as well!

This is one of my favorite local parks! There is SO much there. A skatepark, a park for playing, tons of beautiful areas to sit and admire the artwork, walking areas, grass, etc. It's right next to The Wave (an indoor pool park in Dublin) and easily accessible with loads of parking. I go here whenever I need to clear my mind and just chill out. There is enough space to socially distance from everyone and take some time to yourself to relax. I highly recommend giving Emerald Glen a chance and visiting if you're ever in the area! read more

An absolutely lovely park. Located in Dublin, it's developed in a newer section and surrounded by a nice community of $1M homes (hey, welcome to the area). Whether it's picnic'ing, bbq'ing, walking, basketball, volleyball, tennis, soccer, baseball, football, Bocce ball, cricket, or The Wave ($) water park, skate park, or just enjoying the rose garden -- it's very large, and has something for just about everyone. Not comparable to a Central Park or a Golden Gate, which are in a class by themselves, but this is definitely in the tier just below. read more

What a nice park to have a kid's birthday party! I was a guest to a 1 year old birthday party and had an awesome time. Restrooms were extremely clean and I saw a staff member come by to check up on things. The playground looked like fun, but I didn't participate. Sidewalks were also nicely paved and clean, as well as the parking lot. My favorite part was the nice, well-kept grass. In between eating birthday cake and other goodies, I'd lie down on the manicured grass. The light breeze on a hot day made it super relaxing. If I still lived in the bay area, I'd have an adult birthday party at this park! However, park reservations are only available to residents of Dublin. read more

It is kept up by the City very well. read more
