    Park with school in the background
    Tiffany D.

    This is a tiny little park tucked in a residential neighborhood right off the Ramona Exit off the 10 E freeway coming from DTLA. My friend lives around the block (and attended the attached Highlands Elementary school), so I come here often before work to get a quick run in before we hit the Hong Kong breakfast nearby. Each loop around the park and school (on the sidewalk path) is a tiny bit over half a mile, so 2 loops is 1.07 miles. Run around a few times, and I can justify that unlimited milk tea at breakfast and start my day off right! There are also tennis courts and decent lighting at night, though I've never used either. Feels very safe and residential.

    Locked gates.

    Visitation Rights: I've been to this park many times. It has been my home court when I play…read morepickleball after work. Location/Parking: Located on McPherrin Ave. between Harding and W. Newmark. Parking can be found along McPherrin or other surrounding streets if you can't find parking. Entertainment: The city usually hosts a decent amount of festivities for the community at this park. Current Events: From May 7 - 10, they're celebrating cinco de mayo (5/7/2026 :5pm to 10pm and Monterey Parks birthday (5/7/2026 to 5/10/2026). Barnes Park Offerings: 1) Pickleball Courts (6) /Tennis (1): 2 month's ago they repaved and installed permanent pickleball nets. There's only one tennis court now... haha Pickleball is taking over! Pickleball courts are closed starting 5/4/2026 to 5/12/2026. Will reopen on 5/13/2026. 2) Baseball/Softball Field 3) Community Center 4) Gymnasium: Indoor basketball and pickleball courts (7pm - 10pm) 5) Restrooms: They're available. Not really clean though. 6) Teqball table: Don't see people use this table to play. I guess I'll watch this on youtube for now. Hopefully, one day.... I'll be able to see this sport in real life. Barnes For Thought: Overall, it's a nice park. Pretty cool that they had enough funding to install permanent pickleball courts. Perhaps the next thing they can fix up is the restrooms.

    A nice city park nestled in a cozy Monterey Park neighborhood. Although I don't usually make it a…read morepoint to visit regularly, I do visit at least annually when I volunteer at the Cherry Blossom Festival. It has always been a well-maintained park with plenty of offerings, although the pool is currently closed. Plenty of parking in their lot (on the south side) or surrounding streets although parking can get tough when there are major events.

    3/21/26 What a great find! It is a good seven minute walk from our place and I just happened to…read morestumble upon it on my morning walk. This park is a great gathering and refresh place for the community of San Gabriel for leisure exercise nature walks for children and adults alike. There is a couple of playgrounds located inside Vincent Lugo Park, one of which is La Laguna playground with huge animal shaped installments for children to play & explore and a regular playground with swings & climbing/jungle gyms. For adults, there are outdoor exercise equipment, which I saw are located in two separate places.. There are more nooks & crannies for me to explore that I may find in my next visit. Picnic tables are found some shaded some not, bbq grills, too. Additionally, there are covered tables and chairs as well for the community to hold parties or any kind of celebration. Walking paths are available, both cement & ground (clay-like). I noticed that there were a few sets of people doing tai chi-a few of them brought their music to coordinate their movements. It seems like small park tucked away, almost hidden. It's like a nature trail for me. I figure I could cut across the Alhambra Wash path to walk to it next time. Restrooms available, ample parking spaces. Lots of trees, greens. I love this "discovery"

    I used to come here as a kid and it was the best park in my opinion. Love the character slides with…read moredragons, whales, and dinosaur. This time there's seals, a boat, dolphins, octopus, snail, and sea star. The downside is sometimes the slides may have been used as a restroom so you can smell it and might need to avoid those slides. They do have a restroom which is a smelly and dirty but useable. Other than that, great park with sand! So be careful!
