There's so many good things happening here!…read more - toddler pirate ship - rope climbing - impressive larger play structure - grass fields - across from nice walking paths for mom - really nice covered picnic tables - clean and well maintained The only downfall to this park for me was that it didn't have a bathroom. It also didn't have swings but we didn't miss them. We loved playing and hanging out here, and between the park, and walking down the walking path to Central Park, we burned 4 hours of the day which was just what we needed.

This park is legit!! My kids could play here for hours. We were visiting the Great Wolf Lodge in…read morenearby Manteca and stumbled upon this park before check in. While there is no bathroom, it's an absolutely epic play structure with three stories flanked by another climbing structure and an awesome pirate ship. There is also a huge grassy area. Would return!

There's plenty of handicap parking. Parking is also right next to the playground, splash pad, basketball courts and picnic area. It gets busy on the weekends; however, the weekends it's mostly the locals only. When it's crazy hot and you're tired of being inside and you want an alternative to the rivers, this is a great local option that's FREE as in paid for by our taxpayers $.

This part is pretty freaking cool. The splash pad area is smaller than the new park next to LPD,…read morebut imo it's way better. Here's why: The play structures, bathrooms, water play area, picnics and shade are all right next to eachother. As a mom with young kids, I felt comfortable sitting down and watching them run back and forth from water play to the pirate ship, back to the picnic table to grab a snack, ect. The other park in town with a large splash pad area is large enough that I felt the need to follow my kiddos around. The picnic areas here are way nicer because they have good established shade. And, for potty training parents - the bathrooms are literally right there. Across the large flat field (perfect if you want to play soccer) there was adult exercise equipment, basketball courts, and tennis courts. They even had a handicap swing and one of those cool ones for both baby and an older rider, that face eachother. 10/10 reccomend this park! As we got into early afternoon, the park got super busy and there were lots of rough older kids. We decided that the crowd was getting a little too rough for our littles so we decided it was time to go. I would say that if you have toddlers, morning hours are best before it gets super crowded.

This is a pretty new park even though it's been open a few years but I would say it's a better park…read morethan any other Lathrop park. It's near an elementary school but not as close with a whole grass field between. The pathway that's between the school and park is wide and shady, filled with places to sit, workout and eat. There is a restroom at the park and on the Slate Street side closer to the school. The water splash pads runs continuously during the day in the summer because the water is recycled and filtered. They have city workers that check up the area regularly. I see them in the mornings when I go for a walk sometimes. They added a new pergola type area next to the tennis courts. More tables to enjoy and a bbq pit I believe The parking is pretty much street parking but it seems that a lot of the visitors are from the area so they most likely walk to it. Ice cream trucks, well vans come by and sometimes the school would invite Kona Ice usually on Wednesdays sometimes. Kona would usually be on the Slate Street side FYI

We've been coming to this park since 2018. It's a lovely quick get away not far from home…read more Campground Hosts are ALWAYA, kind, welcoming, accommodating and helpful. Just really nice people. However, through the years, the neglect of this park is starting to show dramatically. Roads are torn up, overgrown trees oftentimes scratch RVs and way too many stray cats. Our last two visits with friends were ruined due to faulty electrical equipment but worst of all sewage backup into the camp site. This is unacceptable but more importantly, pretty sure the health department would find this to be in several violations. We would be so disappointed to have to stop coming here but these issues are happening at different sites, not sure we want to be part of a crap shoot. SJ Parks department, please do better for your customers. UPDATE: Someone came and sprayed the area. All he accomplished was to spread the sewage leak to a bigger area of the campsite. EWWWWW

Warning: the address may not…read morecome up on your google maps because it's a new development but it's right across the street from the almost completed Living Spaces Furniture store in Manteca. Easiest way to put it. But this park has a lot of grassy area, a back stop with fence to hit baseball/softballs, a mini tennis court, and horse shoe toss thing. What I love about this park is the non bark/sandy area! So easy to take my 1 to and she can't put anything in her mouth because the ground is made of that rubber bouncy material. There's a toddler play area, and then a bigger kids one. Clean tables, with plenty of trash cans. There are no bathrooms the only negative. If you are in the area and have little ones definitely should get out and get some outdoor time here.
