We were about to go to another park but we missed a turn so we ended up here and it didn't disappoint! It was a nice park, the swings are placed far away from the play structures though which i think was weird lol. The park has enough shade, i'm not sure if there's any bathroom though. Overall would recommend read more

Hillview Park - Playgrounds Near Me - Fairfield, California

Lots & lots of space!... ('And a bit of garbage to along with it too.) "The Pack"(HAPA & Trixie), seemed to enjoy it...

(You know the miniature, faded, blue plastic horse, attached to a giant spring?... 'That if you're not careful, is a perfect receipt for a face plant.) Well, it has been a while since I was last here... 'Now, it's all grown up, it's huge!... 'With a little attention & care, Hillview Park has a lot of potential to be a great park, it definitely has the space for it.

There weren't too many people out, a few people passing through walking their dogs, two guys practicing their "putting swing," which, "NO golfing," was one of the park rules. (Shrugs) No harm, no foul. We stayed for about 45 minutes and by the time we left a half dozen kids were playing a game of football... 'Seems like a pretty cool park.

People just don't get it... "Folks, this is YOUR park, provided by the city for your 'parking pleasure,' the least people can do is make some sort of effort to help keep it clean!" I just don't get it sometimes, I'd see the same thing in South OC and it always made me wonder if people really appreciate what they have?... Beautiful parks, well taken care of, watered & maintained, yet people feel the need to litter, not pick up after their dogs and blatantly disrespect the place they call "home." (Sigh) Go figure.

Nice park especially since they have remodeled it. The kids love going here. They have a nice trail to walk your dog or just walk yourself. Plenty of grass for kids to play soccer or football. They have swings in the far back of the park. I would totally recommend watching your child at this park. There was an incident where a group of girls tried to intimidate my daughter to the point she came and got me from my sisters house.. normally a cool environment besides that one incident. Plenty of trees around for shade and located in a nice neighborhood and right next to a school. During the rainy/wet season I would advise to wear clothes you don't care about because the trail can get pretty muddy.. it says it's a dog park but there is no actual enclosed dog park here just a trail for walking your pet. read more

This is a great place for a stroll. They have a nice playground area for the kids to have fun. I enjoy walking my dog while my children are going crazy on the equipment. I most definitely recommend this park to anyone who loves to be outside but doesn't have the money or the time to go to some place more extravagant. This is a hidden gem right in the middle of the city that you can enjoy for free. But don't take my word for it. Go check it out! read more

This is listed as a dog park but it's not. Plus it's very muddy right now. However it does seem to have a nice playground for the kids.
