I have lived around the area for quite some time and have seen multiple upgrades to the play ground area over the last several years. I love the refresh of the play ground. It's bright, vibrant and it feels more spacious as well. Great place to go take a nice stroll, play basketball, soccer or even eat at one of the picnic tables. read more

I have returned to Live Oak Park (LOP) to play some amazing pickleball with a few of my work colleagues. Luckily, it was on a weekday between 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Again, there are 8 permanent pickleball courts. We used two of them. We didn't have to wait nor did we have to give up our courts during our visit. We got almost 2 full hours of fun play until it got dark. So cool! Courts were really nice. However, they may need to be swept and rinsed down. There are 3 entrances onto the courts. Benches are available on one side. The waitlist rotation paddle system is closer to the benches. Restrooms are nearby the courts, but if they are closed, you'll have to walk over to the other restrooms near the children's playground or basketball courts area. Btw, the pickleball courts do not have any lights for night play. Once it gets dark, you'll have to call it a night! However, the tennis courts do have lights for evening play. If allowed (not sure), you may bring your portable pickleball net and lines for use. Just a thought. Weekends will probably be very crowded. So come early to snatch a court for however long possible until waitlist rotation comes into the picture. I'll definitely be back to LOP for more fun pickleball play. Thanks LOP! Sorry, still no photos at this time. read more

Absolutely huge playground area! Where was this when I was a kid? Cool outer space theme with a large rocket ship in the middle and tiny little astroid all over the place. There's some picnic tables, and a gazebo ( I believe you can rent this for birthday parties on the city website I wish the restrooms were a little bit closer though read more

Really nice park! Parking can be a challenge when there are soccer games going on, but if you want the kids to enjoy hours of fun at a new park, it's worth it. Also a great location to have a kid's party. There are designated tables for that. You're able to reserve the space through the city for a fee. read more

Live Oak Park - Parks Near Me - Temple City, California

It's a community park, but a very well used park that holds some holiday events, has a community center that's always booked for classes, a huge field for soccer and softball games and a running track around the perimeter. Recently (June 2025) the new playground opened. It's been under renovation for about 2 years and it's money well spent. It's much bigger, eye catching and every evening since it opened, it's been packed with kids. There are also tennis courts,neither some converted to pickleball courts. Towards the southern end are basketball courts and a wall for punchball or practice solo tennis. Besides all of the sports areas, there's a spacious covered area with many tables and benches, which can be rented for parties. I often walk my dog here, or just come for a walk. It's safe and brightly lit with park patrols always in the move. Live Oak Park is a great place for everyone to get out of the house and get some fresh air. My only gripe is when there are games or events, parking can be tricky. read more

Brand new park playground has been open for a week now woohoo it is so so crowded on a Saturday afternoon/evening but these large shade things make summer bearable. There's a large climbing rocket structure for the older kids and a smaller spaceship for the toddler and younger kids. The new swings for toddlers with the bucket seats and regular swings, spinning things and spiderweb climbing things are great. Even has little color wheels and spinning gears and colorful marbles for the even younger babies to enjoy. The landscaping with the up and down hills are great for all the kids to run up and down hills and valleys, lots of fun to be had here. There's a large field for other sports with balls the walkway for walking or tricycle or scootering should be allowed and basketball and punchball courts remain the same. There a restroom not far from the covered picnic area where there's always parties and tons of uncovered lunch tables. Parking has become a bit of a struggle now that everyone and their whole families are coming to enjoy the park and also keep in mind I saw a parking enforcement giving tickets to cars that were not parked "head in" read more

Really nice pickleball courts, with great competition. Playground is great for my grandson too.

I came back to Live Oak Park after several months. They finished construction on the playground. All I can say is "wow." It's the most extravagant playground I've seen - makes me, even as an adult, feel jealous of the kids that get to play here. The 4 white wings is what you'd see from a distance. It provides shade during sunny days. The middle looks like a rocket, connecting to tunnels, slides, and other enriching areas. It's a great place for families to take their young children. On the other side, there's now a popular pickleball court area. It looks very distinct from the tennis courts interior, but they are connected. All the courts were filled and looked like folks outside the fence were waiting for their turn. Overall, it seems that the playground and pickleball courts have brought more people to the park and it's exciting to see the development overtime. read more

This newly renovated park has so much to offer. There is so much to do. All the kids love it. It has been packed every time we have come. Very cool space theme. There is parking on both sides of the park. At times can get crowded. There is also street parking. Not too much shade for the kids play area. Suggest having the kids wear hats. They did make shade to the side for parents or underneath the trees but not much seating. Suggest bringing a picnic blanket. Of you want to host a party they do have a large covered area with tables. They also have a walking trail. read more

Played pickleball midweek at Live Oak. The park has 8 courts composed of 4 permanent net courts (#1-4) and 4 portable net courts (#5-8). The latter courts are the furthest away from paddle holders where players put their paddles to reserve a spot for the next game (moves right to left). First time at these courts and the park has a parking lot and also off-street parking where you need to watch for the street cleaning signs. This a a fairly large community park that also has tennis courts and little league and larger baseball fields. Since I went to play PBall as a drop-in not knowing anyone at this facility, I started with some newbies and got easily slaughtered, 0-3 games against some intermediate players. The last three games I played with another visitor that was also an intermediate and played some good people and went 3-0. Was harder to pair up with a local player but I can understand as most people were playing with friends. Met a lot of nice people in my two hours of play. Recommend playing on courts 1-4. read more

We went to this park on Saturday. All the playground equipment is for kids -- some parents stayed nearby while others sat and watched. The facilities are new, but unfortunately there were too many people. Kids need to be careful while playing to avoid getting hurt. It would be much more fun on a weekday when it's not so crowded. read more

Wow when did the playground here get such an upgrade?! Live Oak Park is the park I grew up going to as a little kid and seeing how much it has changed and improved is so amazing! Large parking lot - it gets full during peak times and weekends. Awesome recreational classes for little kids in the auditorium. The field is large, lots of tennis courts, basketball courts, public restrooms in multiple areas! read more

Love Live Oak Park! It's clean, well maintained, and very family-friendly. The playground is great for kids, and there's plenty of open space to run around or just relax. It feels safe and welcoming, and it's a nice spot for both kids and adults to enjoy. We always have a good time here and keep coming back. read more

Enjoying the new playground. It is very interactive and my kiddo and friends played for almost 4 hours. They were happy to have the water bottle fill stations, and had it so close to the playground. We had to use the main community center restrooms. They were inside the a/c and it was cleaner than the ones that were outside. We will be visiting when it is cooler and during the week. Weekends were busy for sure. read more

This is a pretty busy park especially on the weekend. Tons of events going on but it's a beautiful, well maintained, and large park. Dogs are allowed now but not on the grass I believe. Walked my dog around the path and it was a solid walk and my doggo loved it. Plenty of trash cans around to toss doggy bags. Punchball court, basketball courts, and tennis/pickleball courts. Overall a good but busy park. read more

Live Oak Park - Basketball - Parks Near Me - Temple City, California

Parking: Lots of parking. Includes: This park has a large open field (that was under construction), basketball courts, many tennis courts, bleachers, baseball field, community center, track around the field. First time checking out this park. The open field is nice but because it was blocked off for construction, we didn't get to use it and walked on the track instead. The park was quite busy with many people using the tennis courts and walking along the track. This seemed to be the main things at the park and due to the heavy usage, it did feel a bit crowded. Had wanted to play ball with my dog, but with the field closed, we were unable to. Outside of the field there wasn't much other greenery, and not many trees so I can see it getting pretty hot in the summertime. read more

Very fun! My kids loved it. Bathrooms are close and clean. Everything is pretty new and lots of fun

i used to come to this park often to play pickleball with some friends. it's gotten very crowded recently and not too many courts for pickleball but everyone is super friendly and inclusive so you can usually wait in line to play doubles and pair up with someone. the field is large but the PLAYGROUND!!!! i'm not a kid anymore but if i were i would beg my parents to come everyday since it's so fun and well built. parking is slightly limited, especially at night time read more

We love this park, very dog friendly with a nice and new playground for kids. I only wish that people who visit there please supervise their kids. Some kids just don't understand English and they don't follow the rules, it is not safe. The only thing I don't understand, why some of the management staffs are so rude, we didn't know that they don't allow people stay after 10pm? We saw them drove over the field/grass and high beam to people who are staying on the field. I think it is very rude . Really don't understand why they do this, and it sounds like they constantly checking for people, give out parking tickets (do not back in parking) I saw they giving out parking tickets within 5mins . They are very . read more

This is a great park playground with a nice shaded area for group parties and a play structure for kids of all ages. There's a really nice Helicopter play thing which my 2 yr old loves, to the point where I think he'd spend the majority of the day in it. It's quite unique and fun for a child to use their imagination and interact with the play area. Parking can be easy as it has a parking lot. Temple City gets hot, so bring water to stay hydrated. The perfect scenario for kids would be to come before 10am when the sun has not come out and the play structure is not heated by the sun's heat through the day read more

Live Oak Park is lit not gonna lie. I enjoy the wall court the most; heavily underrated. I wish more parks has a wall court. I love playing my childhood game, punch ball and kick back, on that wall. The only complaint I have is that the cops be kicking people out by 10pm. I get it, the park has a closing time, but I believe no parks should have it. Take Almansor for example. Almansor technically has park hours but no one gaf. Cops be patrolling but that's about it. Like let me enjoy my late hour punch ball and kick backs before I have to face the real world again Good thing tho is that there aren't any more patrols past 12am so if I'm ever sleep deprived and lack common sense, I would go to live oak and chill there. read more
