At the very least a cleaning was necessary and so was an updating of proper signage for tennis court usage, rules & etiquette. Was looking forward to being able to reserve the court for scheduled matches. Then I wondered how long it would last before it fell into disrepair again. Not too long! Sadly for those of us who love the game and use tennis courts with respect , the Albany Memorial Park courts are now again being used as dog parks; social venues (that include bringing meals & drinks) for pickleballers ; play grounds for soccer/volleyball/skating/etc. Foul language from both young & older people. This park would get a higher rating if facilities were used as intended. Maintenance of the property can only do so much. Park users must learn to be Responsible & Respectful people too.

Chaucer seems to LOVE this place... In fact he kinda thinks he owns it, lol! He must investigate(sniff) anyone who enters his kingdom! Super friendly welcoming for all!!

It's also right next to 'Leila by the Bay' restaurant. The playground is designed mostly for younger kids with the floor deck made from recycled rubber materials. It has a couple of toddler swings so definitely not for teenagers. We didn't have these kinds of playgrounds when I was growing up. It has three benches and three picnic tables with lots of grassy area. Depending on the time of day, the surrounding trees will provide some shade. I've taken my friends here during the pandemic just to get away from the pandemic madness while enjoying the outdoors while maintaining social distancing. The city of Hercules also does a good job of maintaining and cleaning this park, and the garbage bin is never full, which is a sign that it's being serviced in a timely manner. Best part of all, you can watch the Amtrak passenger trains and freight trains pass by on their scheduled routes. There's something hypnotizing about a train going by; no matter how many times I've seen it, you can't help but look and enjoy. It's definitely appropriately named Railroad Park.

If you have little kids they might not like this. Older adults are more likely to appreciate what this is here. Not many improvements or things for little ones to do but there is open space and unusual looking rocks. No faces that I could see - you have to have imagination but still, they command attention. I don't really like dark thickly wooded areas. Its seems creepy and my imagination could run wild thinking about what might lurk nearby out of sight. This place is open, has fresh air and is not all that popular... all things that could make this a good place depending on what you like. I felt it was serene - peaceful. Bring your (leashed) dog here - both of you can sniff around instead of the same old place for the 30th time.

Hey, I wasn't expecting Mt. Rushmore, but I was looking for an outcropping that could pass for a nose or maybe an ear. On the plus side, this rock park has actual green space flanking the boulders. You can find it off Arlington Avenue on Thousand Oaks at San Fernando. There are two benches, a picnic table, a water fountain, and of course, the rocks to climb on if you're so inclined. Adjacent to the park is Indian Trail, a rocky path that takes you down to The Alameda. Now, could someone show me the face? RELATED - Exploring Berkeley?
