This park is so beautiful, and then to have the treat of the elk right in front of us was amazing. It is so awesome how they just live among the people here in the community. Nobody bothers them, and they don't bother anyone. It's a beautiful thing. They are so majestic. I literally could've sat there for hours just watching them, but my granddaughter wanted to feed the ducks. Unfortunately, there weren't really any to feed. Another thing I wanna mention is the bathrooms here are so clean, not something you always find at a park. This is a great place to go to have a picnic and spend some family time. My granddaughter was already asking me when we can go back. 9/28/25

It's a lot roomier than the other fenced areas by the parking lot. We were having some problems with a stranger's dog in the "newer" park so we decided to walk our guys... low and behold this excellent discovery. It's a bit run down, could use some attention to the "lawn" but it's a great alternative if you have big dogs that need space to run. There's a section for small dogs, too.

I come in the morning and have found a tampon and used condom. There is plastic around the sewer grates that is torn. There is often trash by the sewer openings. There are times the poop bags have ran out for awhile not being refilled. Sometimes it floods and stinks like sewage and the dogs can get their paws black from it. When it floods bad during raining times they lock it up. Some people leave styrofoam coffee cups, poop from their dogs, and broken toys. I wished this park had a bathroom. Regulars are very nice. Benches on each side, shade from trees on one side is nice and dog/people drinking fountain. I am thankful to have it so large because I have big dogs that love to run and play.

I have a few good and bad things to say about this dog park. First off, I do not own a dog,…read morehowever, I do work for dog rescue and my friend has a dog that we bring here from time to time for exercise and play. We have come a few times and it was nice, no issues. However, today was different. There were several Husky dogs that were being rather aggressive to other dogs. The owners, one an obese, Hispanic male, was being a bully as well. There were several other Hispanic males who told me and my friend to take our dog elsewhere if we didn't like it. We left and so did another girl who observed the entire situation. No one cared that they were bullies and I am writing this to warn anyone who goes there to beware of them. Their dogs are mean and aggressive and the fat "brute" bully does nothing and won't control his dog. He gave me several death threat looks and if I would have been armed with pepper spray, I may have used it. We wanted no trouble and left quickly. I am really nervous to go back. It is a nice and beautiful park although, there are no bathrooms and also many people do not pick up their dog's poop. Pros-beautiful dog park, has nice benches to sit on and pretty grass. Con's-No bathrooms or shade, sometimes poop not picked up, mean bullies who are hateful with aggressive dogs. There was a girl there that the bully's dogs were trying to bite and pick on. The poor dog was crying but the girl did nothing. So odd that people won't fight for their own animals. I wanted to call the cops but saw no point. If you see people like this with a Husky, I urge you to report him. I am not sure to whom though. Enter at your own risk. Take pepper spray and be on guard. Never know when the mean, fat bully might return.

There are all the typical awesome things you'd find in a park including kids playgrounds and swings. All of these are new and of a quality structure. But what really stands out are the cool extra features like filtered water bottle fillers, exercise equipment, and a Bike Pump Track. If you don't know what a Pump Track is it's a place to practice your mountain biking skills. Oh Tehachapi, you really know your audience! Looking at this park you can tell there was a lot of thought and consideration that went into renovating it. It's the little things that count in life and in parks too!

Calico Ghost Town is a historic ghost town and former silver mining community located in the Calico…read moreMountains of California's Mojave Desert. Founded in 1881 during the silver mining boom, the town prospered for over a decade before declining when silver prices collapsed. By 1907, most residents had left, and Calico was eventually restored and transformed into the county-operated attraction known today as Calico Ghost Town.   Situated just off Interstate 15, about 3 miles from both Barstow and Yermo, Calico has become a popular stop for travelers exploring Southern California or driving between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. We visited in February 2026 during our trip to Las Vegas and were impressed by the dramatic desert scenery, unique rock formations, and panoramic views from the surrounding hills.   Today, visitors from around the world come to experience the atmosphere of an authentic Old West mining town. The park offers a variety of amenities, including RV and group camping, cabins and bunkhouses, mountain biking trails, off-road vehicle areas, shops, and restaurants. Throughout the year, Calico hosts several special events such as Civil War reenactments, the Spring Festival with Americana music, Calico Days celebrations featuring burro races and mining-themed activities, and the popular Halloween Ghost Haunt in October.   Only minutes from Interstate 15 and a short drive north of Barstow, Calico Ghost Town makes an enjoyable roadside stop for food, shopping, sightseeing, and a glimpse into California's mining history. However, I would recommend visiting Calico Ghost Town during the spring or winter months rather than in the summer, when desert temperatures can become extremely hot and less comfortable for exploring the outdoor attractions and surrounding hills.

Yes its an OLD run down ghost town but it truely feels OLD and run down now. Trash everywhere. Spiderwebs and dust everywhere. Its not the Calico look, its literally no one cleaning around here. It looks so unclean everywhere we went. Also...I dont feel many workers are in Character anymore. I miss that. If they are even dressed up they are just sitting around on their phones or talking to each ither. Zero interaction. Zero immersion... just so disappointed. We keep coming back but its just getting worse.
