Thank goodness no challenge court. + Plenty of parking. + A quick 2 min drive, or a 10 min walk, from the apartments. + A tennis net separating 2 pairs of pball courts. + Lots of friendly, beginner pball players willing to play pick-up. Non-likes: - Only one door entrance into the pball courts. - A little dirty. There's often dirt or leaves on the ground. - The restroom is a bit of a walk away from the sports area. - Need another separation between each pair of adjacent pball courts to mitigate ball-on interferences.

This is a great place for children to play and it's not far to the beach. The children's park is behind the Marina Center. I think this is used to keep children from wandering around or away as the only way to go is to street parking or towards the outdoor courts (that have gated doors). It's a small city park, don't expect it to be immaculate and have all the things a large park would. Again, I like it for it's quaint and quiet atmosphere (yes, even with children).

Lexington is proof! This park, at its core, is two large sized football/soccer fields that can be divided up for smaller league kid games. One field is natural grass, the other a composite. The entire park is well lit because of the night games that are played there, which makes for an overall inviting and safe experience - and I never see the park empty, it's always in use. Surrounding the fields are a running track that circles the distance of the park, a large playground area, seating for the parents, oh, a large set of bleachers for the FNL and soccer games. A workout area in the back with a circuit style set of arm/leg machines. Pickleball and basketball courts, a general area with covered seating for picnics and gatherings, and a large parking lot area that, although large, can be found filled on busy days. Overall this is a good park and a great addition to our cities lineup. We come here often to do sports or use their other various facilities. :)

My only complaint is the playground is truly geared for older kids 2.5-3years + older. I feel with such a large project, the city of Cypress could have added a few other features to make it friendly for under 3yr olds - it's literally only 1 small slide for the littles - no steering wheel to drive, or any features to fidget with, or twist, turn, pull or other. I guess it was the last thing in their budget. All in all, it is a huge upgrade to the city of Cypress and we love walking here and that they have doggy bags for when our pupp finds a couple potty spots.

The…read morewhole area felt energetic in a way that teenagers would enjoy a lot, especially since I saw so many teens around the basketball courts, the grassy fields, and even near the playground. It surprised me how naturally the park gave off that youthful atmosphere without trying too hard. The open spaces and colorful areas almost felt like spots made for taking pictures, and they did not cost anything to enjoy, which makes them perfect for teenagers who like hanging out and being creative. It was my first time at Whaley Park, and I did not realize how much there was to enjoy until I walked around. I appreciated how easy it was to relax there without feeling rushed or crowded, even with all the teens playing games, taking photos, and talking with each other. Some parts of the park looked a little older or worn down, which is part of why I am giving it four stars instead of five, but nothing took away from the overall experience. I never doubted that the visit would turn out the way I hoped it would. I have only visited Whaley Park once before writing this review, but it ended up being one of the more enjoyable and energetic parks I have been to in a long time. I would highly recommend that teenagers go there because they would love the open spaces, the sports areas, the photo spots, and the creative vibe. It gives them a place to have fun, take pictures, and feel inspired in a simple and playful environment.

This park was pretty quiet and would only see less than a handful people around. This is a great place to teach your dogs tricks or let him go unleash and run around and play catch or something. You can park in the residential area, which is always plentiful. There are some shady trees and the grass is nicely maintained. Some people may complain and say this park is too small and dinky, but I guess it just depends what you want to do here. For us, walking our dog and having a different change of scenery is just perfect us 3. There really isn't much here, just a few benches and a cement road for people to ride their bikes or roller blade right on through, but that's probably why it's so deserted.

The only thing (danger) you need to look out for is overhead and side aggressive rod n' reel "casters" and those who use multiple hooks where it feels like potential hazard and an accident waiting to happen. We use squid as bait and it's resilient to the water and waves. It's good for families and kids, but come early to get a spot and avoid the sun. It's good for maybe 1 hr for kids to inevitably get bored or frustrated, but for adults chillin' almost like playing a round of golf where conversation and relaxing is a big part of a social activity, you can stay for hours, just bring a chair. Also, bring a hat, sunscreen, cold water and snacks. Parking (for free) could be easy if you know where to look, read the signs and are willing to walk. The people there are generally friendly 'tho we did encounter a few territorial grumpy older men, par for the course and not spoilers of a good time for us.
