Huge park with space to run around with your dog, or let your kids play on the playground. The play area for smaller children is shaded and relatively cool. There's also a sandpit. And there's a great water feature for the hot summer days for kids to splash around in. There's a great place structure for older kids as well. Lovely and clean park that we are adding to the rotation! read more

This park is awesome! It has both a tot lot and an older kids lot. Most of both are shaded-amazing! There is a sand pit on both sides. Best of all, for summer: there's a water feature! That spot is almost full sun. Easy parking all around the park, too. Some of which is shaded. Love this place! I've taken my 2 year old three times in the past 4 days. read more

The good: This was a great park with a shaded playground, a small splash pad, sand area, bathrooms, and plenty of street parking. We have a heat wave right now in San Jose but I was still able to take my kid here because of all the natural shade from the oak trees. It's especially pretty during the fall because the trees have all turned colors. It's nestled in a neighborhood so feels safe and quaint. I liked the cute "kids only" treehouse sign on the playground. My daughter enjoyed climbing the faux rocks. It was busy on the Saturday we came. The bad: The sand and splash pad area are adjacent so that gets messy with kids. The interesting: The name comes from the former principal of the school that used to be located where the park is now. read more

We love this park! It's got a smaller playground that's partly fenced in and sand and that the littles love to play on. It's also got a bigger playground for bigger kids and sidewalk area for scooters and bikes. There's bathrooms and a water feature and a decent amount of shade. My only complaints have been when bigger kids take over the smaller kid area and get too rowdy and fast moving and knock over babies (with their parents not doing anything about it). And the water feature is a little lacking in water and water pressure but that could be California drought related. read more

This can be a hidden gem depending on where you are entering the park. On one end it just looks like a huge grassy field perfect for running or laying out a nice picnic lunch. The other end is where the play area is, complete with a water feature and a small hill where you can walk the curvy path all the way to the top. My girls have ran down the grassy hill and even rolled down it. The play structures are really nice and can get quite busy in the summer once the water feature becomes available. You can ride your bikes, scooters and roller blade/skate. read more

Wonderful park with sitting and shade areas to enjoy your time while you're there. My grandson likes this park very much especially playing in the sand box. read more

Today was Temper Tantrum Central with my toddler, so we needed to head out of the house to burn off some energy and Jack Fischer Park was the place to go! Oliver is three months away from turning two and he is certainly living up to the "Terrible Two's" stage that is soon approaching. So we will be needing to find more toddler-friendly activities in the Bay Area... soon! Jack Fischer Park is one that we frequent often. It's a smaller, neighborhood park, but my kids really enjoy it. It's clean and people who come here are very friendly. As always, I love that there are two separate playgrounds for the big and small kids. There is a fence surrounding the small kids playground, but it does not entirely close all of the way. There is no gate to keep is closed, so my Houdini of a child (Oliver) can easily escape the small kids playground. The water feature is also a very popular feature with my kids, so we MUST come prepared with swim suits when visiting this park. There is also a "Bee Hive" shaped hill that my daughter loves running up and down on. PARKING: -Street parking available in residential area COST: -FREE! FEATURES: -Playgrounds (one for big kids & one for small kids) -Picnic Area (available on first-come first-served basis) -Restrooms -Large Grass Area -Water Feature THINGS TO KNOW: -Bring a swim suit (for the water feature) -Bring sand toys (for the sand area) -No BBQ's or outdoor cooking allowed -No inflatable jumpers allowed -This would NOT be a good birthday party location read more

absolutely fabulous park for little ones and big ones! the mostly enclosed tot lot is shady with seating, a sweet little play structure for little legs and a nice sandpit. The bigger kids playground has a fun play area, and a bigger sand pit with a lot less shade. The water feature is fabulous, just enough fun for all ages. There are lots of great shaded seating all around the park, pathways to ride bikes and scooters on & parking all around the park. There is also a bathroom with a changing table in it, and its all very clean and nice looking. The only negative I have about this park is that I didn't find it sooner!!!! But my son loved it, I love it and its on our list of weekly adventures from now until we move away! read more

Nice atmosphere of fun, laughs, nice park to read, take walks, a lot of parking available on he street since this park is in a residential area! Really beautiful park , I would say One of my favorites and I will be back when I am close the to the area. read more

My empire has decided to add Jack Fischer Park on the list of favorite parks. This is a small yet very clean and well-kept park in Pollard Road near El Camino Los Gatos Hospital. My fiance and I frequent this park and have our lunch picnics here once or twice a week. Although having only a few benches and tables to sit on, this park is not crowded even during the weekends so there isn't any problem about losing space to use. A lot of children and their (nannies?) caregivers populate this park in the mid afternoon. The small hill at the side of the park make it a great and fun exercise for the little ones. The trees surrounding the park are lush and they are a pretty view in the fall ! On several occasions, I had needed to use the bathroom and the ladies room is well-kept and there is always two toilet paper dispensers. The sink always has soap and it never smells unlike other park toilets. Come and visit Jack Fischer Park and have a quiet but fun time with your fam bam or your other loved ones. Do some cartwheels on their lush grass area and MAYBE I will bring my volleyball peeps here and do some peppering. I am not sure if this park requires a permit for little sports activities like my casual volleyball group but if not., we can always go to another park. This park is in the middle of a residential area and parking may be a hassle if a big group of people flocked here. There is no private lot for parking in this location. Parking is on the street which literally surrounds the awesome park. Jack Fischer is truly a park my empire will hope to keep. read more

Jack Fischer Park - Lush trees... - Parks Near Me - Campbell, California

This park is in a GREAT residential location, has a COOL water feature for the kids to run through time and time again, open grass area in the shade and sun, big sand box and two playgrounds: toddlers and preschoolers/elementary school. I would definitely come again! Morning (9am-1pm) is great for the younger children and the afternoon for the older children. read more

We live just down the street. They closed it down to renovate it, and it opened yesterday. Sadly, while the play structures were upgraded, they took away the normal swingsets and replaced them with baby-only swings. My 10 and 12 year olds are very disappointed because they used to use the swings all the time. They also replaced the sand with tanbark. We aren't thrilled at all as this park now has become a lot less interesting to us. read more

This cute little park has a real neighborhood feel. It was full of families when we visited. There is no parking lot but there seems to be plenty of street parking. There is quite a bit of shade which was nice and 2 play structures. One for kids 2-5 and another for kids 5 and up. They also had a sand pit and a splash pad, which the kids were loving on a warm afternoon. The neighborhood and park feel very safe and the bathrooms were clean. Great little park! read more

Fun playgrounds, shady, clean enough. Lots of sand & wood shavings, though. No soft landing places on playgrounds & plan to get dirty. Irresistible hill for rolling down. Nice breeze even today, a very hot day. Plenty of benches strategically posted around the playgrounds with a full view of both playgrounds from most. Fenced around the toddlers in a nice, unobtrusive way. Nice parents so far! A small water feature to play in during the middle of day, turns off at 3. Everybody seems so happy! read more

This is a stellar park for kids, with a huge grassy area, and an irresistible hill. The favorite attraction is the water feature, so bring a swimsuit and towel for each kid. There are four swings, one of which is like a hanging lounge chair for kids. There are several play structures, some steep slides, and fabulously, most of the play areas are enclosed so it is less likely for little ones to find their way into the street, On Mondays, there are *two* Las Madres groups that meet here, so stay away unless you want to experience craziness incarnate. There is a decent amount of street parking. read more

This park is great for the summertime adventures that us parents need. The water feature is the main attraction here, so bring the bathing suit, towel, water shoes, and sunscreen. Come early to beat the crowds. There is only street parking available, and I have never had any problem finding a place to park. There is a large sand feature as well, so pack a bucket and shovel, and let the kids go wild! read more

Jack Fischer Park - Water Feature - Parks Near Me - Campbell, California

Beautiful park located in a lovely neighborhood. Would love to live in this area. Park is great for the little ones. Well maintained, sand area is clean and safe for kids to play. This park does have a water spray area. Mostly I see people walking with there strollers to this park. Street parking is available. Your little one will love this park. They will have a great time! This park also has a restroom. read more

I'm here at least 4 times a week. Its got everything my 3 year old needs. * Big green space to run.....away from heavy traffic. * Water spray are open until 5pm for the boy to play in the water in. The big kids can overrun it at times but usually enough little kids keep them away. * Big hill to bike, skate, run or roll down. Too bad it doesn't snow here because it would be awesome for sledding. * Swings, slide, rope ladder * Sand feature with waterfall/aqueduct like thing going on. The neighbors usually leave enough toys for your kid(s) to play with in the sand so you don't have to worry about bringing any/losing any I only ask if you bring toys, share them. What are you teaching your children if you don't? Its got sun and shade and picnic areas. Us locals can be a bit of weirdos though. Strange birds. read more

I saw this park while driving with my son and decided why not! Super nice, clean, even has a water area for use on those hot days. I think we stayed about 45min maybe an hour. Perfect for both tots and bigger kids. read more

It is a nice, small park with something for everyone. It has two play areas: one for little kids and another for bigger kids. There are also water areas like the arches that squirt water and a water fountain surrounded by sand to play in. The restrooms are usually pretty clean for a park (with water and sand) and there are a couple of tables around the park. Next to the park is a nice lawn. My favorite part of the park is the grass hill. It has a walkway to the top that spirals around the hill. There is a nice circle bench to sit on and admire the park. There are plenty of benches and trees to shade the park. This park is family friendly and a great place to have a picnic. read more

Sometimes I like to walk around the park after dinner and this place isn't bad. A lot of kids are here because it's for families with kids but they have a picnic area and just space for me to do my exercises. read more

Cute Park in Campbell! There are some great sprinklers for kids to play in but most of the kids were 5 and up so my little 23 month old were too scared to go in. The sandbox area is great and a nice large area to play in. The swings were limited with only 4 for toddlers so go during the week since my twins had to wait a while to go on. Play area was targeted for kids 6 and up since it has climbing rope, giant slide and a tunnel. If you have little ones this is all too big for them. The park has a beautiful lawn area and clean bathrooms. I think we will come back when the Twins are 3 years old. read more

Great park, but be aware that RIGHT NOW, the PLAYGROUND is CLOSED and undergoing major construction.

This is a great park. As mentioned, it has plenty for the kids to do. The water feature kept my daughter busy the whole time we were there. It's great for those hot days...in fact, I was inspired to play in the water feature with her! We will go there again. read more

Probably my favorite park around the area. I love the sandbox, swing and slides and especially the man made hill. My daughter loves to climb to the top! I am sure she will love biking or riding her scooter to the top once she is older. read more

Awesome park because Good hill for skateboarding biking etc. Water area Side playground Waterfall/creek It is awesome go to it read more

I am so happy that the kindest and most caring principal I had as a child has a park named after him -- the Jack Fischer Park. He was a principal at San Tomas Elementary School in Campbell, California I attended in 6th grade in the early 1960's. All the kids loved him. He was an incredible human being. At 64 years old I still think of him and the kindness he showed me, my brother and my family. Ingrid F,, a fan of Jack Fischer, former principal of San Tomas Elementary School read more

totally fine small park for locals. It has a water feature that runs in the Summer if we aren't in a drought and a nice hill to scooter/bike down. The other kids' behavior is hit or miss- like all parks. Repairs are slow, however. A portion of the park was boarded up for months and now a new piece is boarded up waiting to be fixed, which sucks because its the stairs. read more

Nice park, many activities to do for kids. It's small size so don't expect something special.

Play areas fenced off! :-( We love this park! I have 2 1/2-year-old twin boys. There's always something here for them to enjoy. They have such different personalities - one is busy doing a hike on the grassy hill while the other one is busy playing in the water feature. We tried going there this afternoon to take advantage of this gorgeous weather before the rain hits next week. Alas, the play areas were fenced off and the tree trunks were wrapped in an orange material. Looks like they are doing some renovations. Can't wait for it to open again. read more

Great park and space for toddlers. Very clean and I loved the playground equipment they had.

This park is excellent rain or shine. The gentle hills and grassy area's are excellent and the sand and play structures as well. The structures are more suitable for younger children than Oak Meadow park. read more

Great park for the little ones, especially the toddler-age kids! The water feature is wonderfully cooling on hot summer days, and the play structures are great year-round. The bathrooms are pretty clean too. Another highlight is the grassy hill. The kids love to just run up and down the hill - amazing what a lump of dirt can do to entertain them. I don't know what it is about this park, but I've had super luck with meeting some really nice people at Jack Fischer Park. The adults and kids are friendly, and sometimes that makes all the difference in level of enjoyment! read more

great park. very enjoyable family spot. perfect for small children. i used to take my kids there when they were little and it was always a fun time for them. the sand/water is endless amusement. seriously, what kid doesn't love playing in water? and there are lots of trees and grass, it's all very well-maintained. street parking has never been a problem. if you've got kids, give it a try! read more

Love this park! Great water area and my son loves the sandpit! I just wish they had a better playground area and maybe a cover since the two times we have gone the slides and everything were to hot. Overall great atmosphere to bring a blanket and sit under a tree and relax while the kids play! read more

I love going here with my kids. They have so much fun playing in the water. Its usually not crowded - even on the weekend so that's great. I live in Fremont so I actually drive all the way here to take my kids here since they love it so much! read more

Great park! The water play is fantastic! We could have stayed all day and not become bored. We went on a Wednesday am/early afternoon. It was a little crowded as to be expected, but not bad at all, I didn't see any huge groups meeting. Plenty of street parking without too far to walk. read more

My 21 month old loves this park. Favorite part is the water feature but that's only in the summer. In the winter months he prefers that sand box bug he also loves to run up and down the hill and go down the slides. read more
