    Younger kids area

    Haiku: Larwin Park Shaded all around A park for all kids to play Safe, clean neighborhood. --- I have three requirements for kid parks and Larwin Park meets all three. 1. Shade: My inner vampire rejoices. This park is magnificently shaded well throughout most of the day. There are large, canopy fabrics stretched well above the playground equipment that provides the best shade. I don't have to bother with slathering on sunscreen or donning hats and long sleeves to hide from the sun. 2. Engaging playground equipment: The playground is basically separated into three sections--an older kids playground (ropes course, multi-person shell swings, tall slides); a giant sand pit (couple sand tables); and a younger kids playground (short monkey bars, small slides, climbing wall). 3. Safe neighborhood: Located in Buena Park, this gem of a park is a hot spot on the weekends for families. It seems like the sand pit is regularly cleaned and the playground is properly maintained. Bonus: 4. Clean bathrooms: If you have potty-trained little ones, you know this means the world. Four all-gender restrooms are cleaned regularly. 5. Other: There is a full basketball court, a reservable Picnic Shelter, a running/walking track that goes around the park, dog poop bags available, private parking lot.

    Been going CRAZY at home. Decided to take down my bike and ride to this park. Located off Ball road between Knott and Valley View smack in the middle where Buena Park and Anaheim meet. This park us perfect to get away with your 4 legged pal, bike, running shoes or family. If offers immediate fun for all. Did you get that? Fun for all. Even as an adult I would Love to play on the equipment here. They have a running track here, huge grassy area, benches and doggy bags to clean up your pooches poop. They even have bathrooms. Although the COVID has this park closed the track part is open. Perfect to ride or run on. I'll probally walk my dov here next time. She would live this placement This park also has a few residential sleepers in the early morning so just be careful.

    Shade! I love the new shade over the playground area. It's dog friendly, big grass areas to practice soccer or baseball, basketball court, and patio area with grill. Two areas for play, big and small kids. Nice bathrooms, but NO SOAP. Drinking fountains and sitting areas while kids play.

    Visited today the new and improved Larwin Park. They kept the old basketball court and resurfaced it. They have a improved playground area for older and younger children. They also have swing-sets for different aged children. They "flattened" the park, prior to its change it had several hills. Now kids can run around the grass area better. However they removed all the mature trees and replanted with saplings. It will be awhile before you get any kind of shade from trees. They added a better picnic area and tables for families and the restrooms are sufficient. What I am glad to see is the new walking path they added. They also have lamppost for night time walking along the path. Overall it's a good park for our neighborhood, only time will tell how others thinks about this park.

    Love this park so much! Dont know how it looked before but this is so clean and neat now. Shaded playgrounds for younger and older kids. Plenty of parking.

    I don't know what this park looked like before but the renovations are wonderful. Lots of open space and play structures for toddlers on up.

    I took my son to this park for the first time. He had a blast playing in the sand as well as the playground equipment. I will definitely be coming back.

    2019 shade structure.

    Five stars for a beautiful renovation overall, and especially so now with the added shade structures covering both playgrounds.

    Great maintenance, Buena Park!

    We love this place and how spacious it is. My son loves checking out their books and their video…read moreroom where the kiddos can play video games or games from the projector. Definitely worth going back because when you're all done and exhausted, eating in the food court upstairs was delicious!

    Just from visiting this spot a couple times on separate occasions, I would definitely consider this…read morethe best indoor spot I have ever seen for a toddler. It's quite spacious and there are just such a variety of activities for kids, from playing in a ball pit, to stacking random foam blocks, to playing in an area filled with random electronic entertainment (like mario kart and coloring fish), to actual play area with slides and padded obstacles. Even after seeing some of the lower reviews, I still think it is relatively clean considering the amount of traffic the weekend or evening may bring. I didn't really see anything that was broken or not working, and even when the mario kart system bugged out and was on a default screen, a staff member quickly did a reset and got it back into working order within 10 minutes or so. A consideration to be made is the fact that not all the parents are attentive with their kids, so there were definitely some kids that are just disrupting other kids playing or being obnoxious/rude. It's inevitable but also makes it feel like some parents literally just let their kids do whatever with little supervision, knowing that they are within the indoor playground. For example, my 1 year old was sitting on the padded carousel, and an older kid (at least 6 y.o.) jumped into the middle of the carousel and started dancing around wildly, which would've been fine until he almost fell on top of my much smaller child. It should also be noted that the area was marked for 2 y.o. or younger, but there's pretty much no enforcement of the space. Otherwise, it's a really cool spot for kids to burn a few hours and I still think it's remarkable that they fit so many different things to do in the same area.

Water features attract a lot of fowl including Canadian geese, mallard ducks and so many more duck species, plus of course seagulls and crows, pigeons, and a large number of turtles. Very fun for kids to explore. Slides and climbing are built into the structures. Adjacent to neighborhoods so lots of street parking, as well as a separate parking lot. Playground equipment geared for the 3 to 12 year old kids. Lots of covered sheds and picnic tables- those are available for Cerritos residents to rent, but otherwise are free for use. Also has grills if you want to barbecue. Clean bathrooms, onsite toddler pre-K programs offered. Lots of well maintained grassy areas and shady trees.

The playground area is great for all ages my kids had a blast and didn't want to leave. The lake area with the little church in the background is a nice touch, makes it feel more relaxing and not just your typical park. Good walking paths, plenty of grass, and nice spots to just sit and chill. Everything felt well kept and safe, which is a big plus when you're bringing kids. Plenty of room so it didn't feel overcrowded either. Only thing watch out for duck poop on the walkways and grass, especially near the water. Overall, great spot for families. Definitely coming back

Parking was very limited at that time, so plan ahead if you're going early. Clearly, a lot of people know this is the spot for a serious workout. The stairs themselves are brutal in the best way possible. After about three rounds, my legs were completely done--but it's such an effective workout. This place really gets your cardio in fast, and you feel accomplished every time you finish a round. The views along the way make it even more worth it. We also came back later in the day around 5:30 PM. It starts to get a bit dark around that time, so that's something to keep in mind, but it's still a great experience and totally worth it. Overall, if you're looking for a challenging, fun, and effective outdoor workout, Hillcrest Park stairs deliver every time. Just be ready for sore legs and limited parking during peak hours.
