Great park! The kids playground is so big, there's so much stuff for them to play and climb on and it's beyond the basics of most parks. It's also covered so there's lots of shade! read more

This park has such a variety of play equipment and vast open space as well. It's wonderful to come to. The hardest park is the parking on the weekend during baseball games. Other than that, this park has great facilities which includes clean restrooms. We came here for an Easter egg hunt which was a well organized activity but they have plenty of other things you can do besides that! Highly recommended! read more

Decent parking lot, well kept grassy areas, huge playground that's shaded, it was so much fun taking our toddlers here on a hot summer morning. They had several varying age and skills appropriate structures and lots of space so it didn't feel too crowded or dangerous even though there were many families and kiddos around. Lots of benches and picnic tables too so we can take snack and water breaks. Playground was pretty clean and well maintained. read more

This is an amazing park. The shade they have provided entirely covered my kids for the entire three hours we were there. The play equipment is for a variety of ages and everything was clean. The downsides are I have no idea where a bathroom was and I found the parking lot distance from the playground to be a bit confusing as there are multiple lots and no signage that I saw. read more

Impressively, beautiful park! lots of activities and things to do here. Bathrooms are sparkling clean. Came here one afternoon to meet up with a friend for a doggy date. The entrances weirdly tucked behind a health food store if you're not looking for you definitely would have a hard time seeing it. Once you get in the first thing you see is the skate park which is super cool bunch of little kids doing tricks and having a good time. Parking was super easy to find. There was a ton of grassy area for humans and four legged fur babies. A whole park was just so nicely maintained and super clean. We took the circular route around the park and checked out the soccer field in the baseball field. there is also a pretty big dog park in the back corner of the park. Really enjoy this place, doggies approve also. read more

How lucky I am to live in a community with such a beautiful park. It offers plenty of parking, a covered children's play area, a dog park and skate park as well as picnic tables, benches, restrooms and sports fields for soccer, baseball and community events. The park is safe and well maintained. What more could you ask for? I've met so many friendly people here who come to exercise on a regular basis. There's a Vons grocery store to the north of the park just in case you need some last minute food items or snacks for a family gathering or picnic. It's all here in the beautiful community of Encinitas. read more

This park is huge and absolutely beautiful! There is lots of parking in different areas of the park, near every section, because it's so big. There are nice, big, paved sidewalks all through the park, beautiful green grass that is well cared-for, a skatepark, huge playgrounds and more! This park is great for anyone of any age. There's also tons of large grass areas if you want to have a picnic or play soccer, football, or anything else. The park is also right nearby a grocery store and tons of other places. I definitely recommend! read more

Not only is this a great spot to go on a hot day, as the entire playground is shaded, it's also perfectly suited for children of all ages. I've come to find that my friends with older kids struggle to find good parks that their kids aren't bored with. This park boasts a giant rope jungle gym/course that is really awesome. It has smaller structures for the littles and even the small structures have beginning rope climbing sections. Well-kept bathrooms. Tons of parking. Manicured lawns. Unique ways for the kids to play. This park has it all. The drinking fountain even looks like a Lion! My kids thought that was a lot of fun. read more

What a cool big park! The park is beautiful, has a skate park, picnic areas, clean bathrooms and a dog park. We originally came for the dog park but it was closed for something for a month. So we'll need to come back. Plenty of space for everyone. Not much shade though since this is a new park still. Kinda hard to find of Encinitas Blvd, it's a small side street that you take a left into, or just go through the plaza, there are signs. read more

Encinitas Community Park - Great climbing area for older kids. Has wide variety of equipment for all ages. Soft landing pads, plenty of benches. Cool park. - Parks Near Me - Encinitas, California

PLAYGROUND IS OPEN FOR PLAY!! It may still technically be closed for COVID (I don't know the CA restrictions well enough) but there are still tons of kids playing on the park and there's no signage stating it's closed. It's certainly not all gated off like the park playgrounds in Carlsbad are right now. Go and enjoy! ---- There's not much they could do to make this park better. It offers a fun, modern playground for kids (spider climber, teeter-totter, merry go round, monkey bars, spinner chairs) all fully covered by an expansive shade structure. Rubber bottom throughout - NO SAND. There are bathrooms, plenty of benches and picnic tables, and a drinking fountain. There are trails for walking throughout the park and plenty of parking. I haven't looked closely at the skate park, but based on how many kids are there on a regular basis, it must also be pretty well done. The park is a little hard to find - the sign at the turn in off Santa Fe is tiny, but it's distance from the main road is really nice once you're there. I wish there weren't any swings, but I guess that's just a matter of preference. Still a solid 5 star park. read more

Love this park. So serene. Extremely tranquil. Come here to walk our dog and have picnics. The grounds are super kept. Love the foliage and design of this park. We love exploring different parks and this one rates number one for our family. read more

I think i'm the only person who goes to a park on vacation. This one did NOT disappoint!! I got a little confused at first because the park part is not very close to the parking lot. But once we found the trail, it was gorgeous. A lot of greenery. It was nice to see the play area open!! It makes me so sad during this time to see the playgrounds closed. It was in a cool shady area and had a little climbing wall. Love it!! Very active. This park also had a nice big dog park, cleanest park restrooms i've ever seen, and baseball field. Wish i lived here because i would absolutely come back! read more

Came here on 6/30/2022 with the kids to join a summer play date hosted by Tubby Todd. It was a big playground for everyone to enjoy of all ages. Restrooms were clean. Water fountains available. Lots of people walking their dogs. I parked on Bach Street and walked right into the playground area. Free neighborhood parking. Slides, swings and monkey bars too. Lots of grassy area to sit and relax. Playground is under the shade too, that's a bonus in hot summer weather. read more

This is truly a fantastic park! Right off the freeway behind VONS. Lots of open space to pick-nick on. Dog park, bathrooms, water fountains & plenty of parking. The skate park is not lit up tho...so once it gets dark you gotta skate on back home. It seems like there is always something fun going on here...follow the park on social media so that you don't miss out! The sports fields are located far end of the park- South / East kind off...drive the car alongside and park over there, if you are attending a sport event. read more

What a great kids park tucked in behind Vons and right off the freeway. The park is designed for age 2-5 and is fully shaded. My son had a lot of fun. The grass area is plenty and there is a dog park right next door too. Parking is av in three sides. My new favorite spot. The Picknick benches are unfortunately not covered but I'm grateful that the play area is. read more

My pup and I usually like to come here for the awesome dog park they have. However, this community park has extensive walkways to walk him also. There are baseball and soccer fields. Playgrounds full of children. A skateboard park. Plenty of green grassy areas and a short dirt trail area with local flora. It is a short walk to and from the coast despite hearing the nearby freeway sounds. If you get hungry this community park is right behind various eateries. I would recommend the vegan drive-through, Plant Power fast food. Just the refreshments alone are helpful here after an active day in the park.. read more

Weird how such a massive park can be kinda hidden. It's tucked away off of the 5 where you'd least expect a massive outdoor facility to be, but there it is; a huge park filled with beautiful baseball and soccer fields, picnic areas, a skate park, and even an off-leash dog area. All of the grounds are immaculately kept. You won't find grass for sports this nice many places in San Diego. I'd say it's even better than the astroplay surface that's become more and more popular over the years. It's much easier on your joints and you don't have to pick little pieces of tire out of your nether regions for the next week. There's always events going on here and every visit has been nothing short of a superb park experience. If you some day see an intramural event of yours if being hosted here, you'll be impressed. read more

Definitely a cool spot! Tons of grass to hang out on. The park has a lot of different climbing features. One structure for the smaller kids and another for the bigger kids. Cool balancing and spinning activities. The entire park is covered which is nice, and keeps it cool. Two kid swings, and two larger kid swings. Tons of walking area. Skate park which we didn't venture too. This park does have bathrooms. Concession stand which is near the soccer/ baseball fields. Great park! I will be back to enjoy more of the features.

So, apparently you can write reviews for parks! Encinitas Community Park is brand-new, only been open for a month or so, and it is gorgeous! I'm currently standing around, waiting for the Spring Easter Egg Hunt to begin, and I am amazed at how huge this place is. Three large fields, two of them baseball diamonds, a beautiful nature trail, a fully equipped playground, and a great skate park that would make my uncle proud; all of this with plenty of parking for everybody. Full fencing separates everything, the trail itself is clean and pristine, and the playground seems nice and spongy for the safety of kids two and up. I'm really impressed at the beauty and grandeur of it all. Encinitas should be proud to have a new park like this. Only time will tell if it can be kept up to the level of greatness I see here today.. On the Easter side, there is an impressive event going on right now. Volunteers in the city have gone a long way to make a great party for everyone to both enjoy and take part in. Standing on the edges of field 2, we easily see about 10,000 eggs waiting to be picked up by eager two-year-olds. There will be little chance of parents screaming at their children to push down other kids in efforts to get their eggs this year. "Punch him, Mason! Punch that kid for Jesus!" EDIT: I have to warn park-goers, there are A LOT of dog owners here that will let their pooch off the leash. This isn't that bad as many do it at the actual dog park or far up on the higher fields and pick up their crap. But, there are also parents that keep their dogs with them on the playground. I got to watch today as a woman pushed her kid on the swing while puddles kept appearing at her two dogs' feet. More than once I've seen people picking up steaming loads by the slides. It's pretty eff'n disgusting. Though, I guess many people don't care if their kids play in animal waste. read more

Nice size park, had a picnic outside and most people were not wearing mask. Dog park area stated mask required and some people still didn't wear them. We choose to keep our distance from others. Friendly dog and dog owners, from what I noticed most people also keep an eye on their dogs. There's also a restroom near the dog park which is kept clean. read more

This was our first time in Encinitas, and this was an absolutely beautiful park. It was tucked behind a little strip mall of businesses. Huge parking lot, lots of open greenery and a huge structure with different things, jungle gym, swing, etc. We'll definitely return when we're in the area. Only thing I don't see here is a lot of shade, so be prepared with lots of sunscreen. read more

My son loves the skate park here, but it was my least favorite of the three we visited in 3 days. The park itself is just okay. I'm not a huge fan, but my son gives it 5 stars and we're there for him. I much prefer Al Norte for my own enjoyment. read more

Great community park! Has something for every kid of every size, age and preference. The playground is shaded all over which is great! Not somethin you'd normally see. Googlee maps will misguide you, so will apple maps. Go to the Vons nearby, and then aim towards the back of Vons. Then you'll see the park and look for parking just past the shopping mall parking. read more

This is a nice community park. My son loves it. When we're in the area he likes to stop by. He enjoys running the bases. It's larger than our neighborhood park, but a bit noisier, due to it being so close to the freeway. I like the landscaping, it's nicely done, very stylish. There is plenty of parking here. I haven't used the restrooms here, but they do have them. The playgrounds are pretty cool. My son is at an age where he's not interested in them anymore, but the equipment here is nice, they have a little something for everyone. This is definitely a spacious park, lots of room to run around and play. Ideal for a kite. read more

Ugly. Boring. Pathetic. Ugly, boring, pathetic. Ugly, boring, pathetic. Ugly, boring, pathetic.

What a wonderful dog park!! I wish we had one like this one where we live in South Orange County. It's large enough for plenty of dogs to run around without overwhelming each other. It has GRASS, shade, a sidewalk, an agility course, and bushes and shrubs for the dogs to explore. There were dogs of all breeds and all sizes, and best of all, they were all friendly! We will be back! read more

This is what all neighborhood parks would want to be, if they only knew a park could be this awesome. The skate pool is one of the most fun pools around, with plenty of seating, and is even fenced off from the street course section, which is also awesome. There are ball fields, dog parks, long walking trails, a play ground, and lots of open grass area to hang out, throw frisbees, or anything else you need open area to do. They even have bbq grills and picnic tables. When Encinitas built this park, they did it right! Best park in North County, by a long way... read more

SO happy that this park is finally open. Was surprised to see there is a skate park. That wasn't on my radar at all but I'm glad it's there. Anything to keep teenage boys occupied and fit is groovy in my book. My main reason for coming here will be of course the dog park. My dog has a lot of energy she needs to release and she does go to Powerlines almost daily but comes back a little dirty. The dog park here is all grass which keeps my girl clean. She seemed a little timid at first since it was her first time here but soon she was zooming all over with a line of doggy friends chasing her around. It provides dog waste bags and has a doggy drinking fountain. My dog was scared of the fountain but hopefully she will get over it. The people who were here with their dogs seem to know each other and the dogs seem to get along for the most part. There was a little scuffle and the owners were on it right away. The small dog park though is a joke. I would say to small dog owners to take them to the first time part which is larger and then incorporate them into the main dog park once they seem comfortable. There were many small dogs running around in the large dog park with no problems. This is how dogs get properly socialized. I will be a frequent visitor so if you see a small pit mix zooming around the park come over and say hey. read more

A tucked away, community gem! Great open, green space that is family/dog on leash friendly and with easy parking. If you are on Santa Fe, the driveway to the park is adjacent to Plant Power. There's tables/benches, grills, playground and skate park. Also there's water fountains and recycling bins. read more

I'm very excited this park is now finished. I'm so happy. Located right off the freeway, I have watched the progress a long time now and always wondered, "when are they going to open the place?" Well it's finally open. Though not officially as I believe the grand opening is this Saturday. Regardless, it is already going off big time. We went just before sundown and there are lots of people walking dogs, cruising around the baseball fields, throwing footballs around and.... get this - skateboard park!!!! I did not know they were building a skate park as well. As we drove in I got all excited and realized I want a skateboard again. I have no business on a skateboard anymore but I want one now. Oh boy! It's on and I'm gonna get hurt. Maybe I'll just picnic, play softball, run my dog, play on the swings, run around the trails. Man, I don't know. I just feel happy to live in Encinitas. it's such a wonderful place. I love my city. Encinitas is just a fantastic place to live. I really want to thank everyone that had anything to do with this park and our city planning for all the beautiful work they have done. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And, thank you, again. I know some really great things will be happening at this park and I just can't wait to be a part of it. Suggestion.... Music in the park???? Maybe? It's just an idea but it would be fun if they hired or allowed occasional summer concerts at sundown as they do in Del Mar. Whatever they do or allow I will be there. thank you again. What a fantastic job. read more
