American Legion Park is probably the iconic park of Stockton. I'm not saying it's the best park,…read morebut it is the park that most resembles "old" Stockton in that the entire city used to congregate here for the 4th of July decades ago. First, Stockton wasn't always on the wrong side of a population 350k or more. I remember when we were about half that in the early 80's. This park was the premiere location to hang out and just relax. There really isn't much for facilities here. There is basketball, a kids playground and that's about it. The grassy bank protecting the 'hood from flooding is kinda cool because it provides an interesting pathway around the park and the Smith Canal. There are some concrete tables and benches if you want to throw a quick BBQ or just share some beers during COVID. You can fly a drone and get some great pics of Stockton from about 500 feet. You can throw a frisbee and lose in said Canal. You can talk a dog for a nice walk around and double back or shoot all the way to Pershing and make a loop. In short, this isn't the largest, most beautiful, or even the best facilites, but the location matters and this place used to the heart of Stockton when times were a lot better (kid of the 80's, greatest decade ever)!

I visited this park on mother's day. They do have lots of green grass area, a lake or the pond ...I don't know if that's the body of water from the delta. Anyway, it's a cool spot to take the family to, if you don't want to go to the sometimes overcrowded Victory Park down the street.

There's plenty of handicap parking. Parking is also right next to the playground, splash pad, basketball courts and picnic area.

When it's crazy hot and you're tired of being inside and you want an alternative to the rivers, this is a great local option that's FREE as in paid for by our taxpayers $.

But honestly, it wasn't even necessary, it's cozy and safe, so you can see almost all the way around. Best money I've spent for the kiddos in a while, oldest (5, the middle (4) and the youngest (1 1/2) were all entertained and nobody wanted to leave - they could have stayed all day! I love this place for us grandparents. Kids already asked me when we are going again, music to ears, I'll be back.

The only downside: We recently took our two dogs here to play fetch and walk around and not even 5 minutes in they were full of ticks/fleas. Obviously it's not a dog park and is open to start cats and dogs but the amount of fleas/ticks that were on our pups was just wild to me. Our pups were rolling around the grass because they were so uncomfortable. We immediately went home and treated them. THIS IS NOT A PARK TO WALK YOUR DOGS NOR PLAY CATCH!!! BE CAREFUL.

I will say that when we pull dad to reserve our spot there are a few homeless people that called this area their home but they did not bother anyone during the duration of the park being utilized. Was definitely well visited by many families and their kids this past weekend. They do not have a common area grill so you would need to bring your own. There are public restrooms for the most part was semi-clean. Overall the appearance of the park was well-kept.

We got lucky, we were the only ones here so we had the whole playground to ourselves. The place is really big and their jumpy things are in great condition! They have lot of little areas to jump and play. The girl working the front desk was very friendly and informative and helpful. The bouncy houses are so much fun! The smell of cleaning solution is very faint but still enough that you feel confident they clean often which is nice. This place is great if you need to kill some time with kids on a hot day!

Only your party can be there during your time block so the place is all yours. All little kids must wear their own grip socks (that they sell). Adults must wear socks in the play area but they can be regular socks. The place charged to bring outside food, but there is plenty of parking that is free. The set up inside has a small area for little kids (like 6 months - 2 years). The rest is like a little kid ninja warrior set up. Of course my kid was the one who busted his lip but the staff gave me a baggie of ice. They are pretty strict about leaving on time since they have back to back parties on weekends.

We paid $6 per vehicle. This park has different areas of picnic areas. The shelter type areas are reserved areas. You'll have to rent these in advanced. If you have a large party with the inflatable jump houses, you'll need reservations as well. For the smaller areas of picnic tables, it's first come first serve kind of thing. Driving around the park is pretty. You'll have to pay close attention for the curvy roads and one way signs. Inside this park, there's a Micke Grove zoo! I heard it's a small one but we didn't have time to check it out. There's also a Japanese Garden. We're very intrigued and will have to come back to check it out. There is also Fun Town, an 18 hole disc golf, water play feature, a lake, and much more. I am sure I've left out quite a bit. You'll have to check out their website for the latest updates and information. Overall, we enjoyed our day here!!
