There were play structures and swings appropriate for toddlers through elementary aged kids. I loved the soft padding for the ground and seating around the area. There's also a large grassy field for running or chasing bubbles. It's right next to a community center (I think). There's a parking lot and also street parking around the perimeter. Highly recommend!

Village Park is one of our favorite parks. It has a large, open, flat layout that's perfect for…read morefamilies with children of all ages. The toddler play structure is excellent, and I especially love that there is a separate fenced area for the youngest children, which helps keep them safe and prevents them from wandering off. The turf surface is well maintained and makes the playground feel clean and inviting. The surrounding neighborhood is beautiful, peaceful, and feels very safe. There's a large grassy area that's perfect for picnics, birthday parties, or simply relaxing. My older kids also love using the open cement area to play volleyball, basketball, and other games. What I appreciate most is that the park offers something for everyone, from toddlers to older kids, while creating a safe and welcoming environment for families. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a clean, family friendly park with plenty of space to play and enjoy the outdoors.

What a wonderful facility!…read more This building is very new (only ~1.5 years old) and absolutely beautiful! You walk into a large naturally lit lobby, with local event flyers and news on display, as well as Millbrae branded merch (hats, shirts, etc) for sale. There is a reception desk with staff there to help and answer any questions. I came specifically to pick up a custom SF Giants Kleenex box that I ordered at the recent Millbrae Art & Wine Festival. We were greeted by Laurie, who was very friendly and told us all about what they had to offer at the Rec. Center. Just behind some glass doors near the lobby, is a game room. This is mostly targeted towards kids, with a giant TV and various video game systems to play with. We saw around a dozen kids hanging and playing in this area as we walked by. As you continue down on the first floor, there are classrooms, conference rooms, and even a giant hall that can be rented in full (or half) for private events! They also have a kitchen connected, which is helpful for events serving food. There are several clean and accessible bathrooms, as well as lots of fun historic photos on display. They have a Fitness Center with various equipment, and space for aerobic classes. There's also a room dedicated entirely to Ping Pong! If you get hungry or thirsty, there are two vending machines with drinks and snacks, and several water fountain/refill stations throughout. There is also an entire upstairs area. In addition to private rooms, there is a "Senior Lounge" which has comfortable seating, a large TV, and a half-kitchen. There is an outdoor patio connected up top with over a dozen lounge type chairs to enjoy some fresh air. They also have space for outdoor activities for people of all ages. There are multiple playgrounds for kids, in addition to multiple tennis courts and a large field. The Rec. Department also oversees many other fields (school and other) and a skate park, according to their website! If you live in (or near) Millbrae, you gotta check out this Rec. Center! There is a ton to do, it's super bright and clean, and the staff is all very friendly and welcoming! I'm looking forward to coming back again and utilizing some of these amazing features!

Then, there are a couple of different options of play structures available that are suited for different age groups. They also have a big basketball court that was not busy at all when we came, so we got to use essentially the whole thing to practice shooting hoops or even kicking a soccer ball around. There is also an enclosed dog park right next to the basketball court, although it's a bit smaller than other dog parks. On weekends, there are softball/baseball games in play in the field next to the park, but we were able to find parking relatively easily in the street. Bring a jacket if you come - even on a warm day, there are many areas of this park that are shaded due to the heavy trees in the area so it can get a bit chilly if you're in the shade.

We were given a map at the kiosk and the ranger was super helpful, pointing out easy trails and longer options. My boyfriend and I chose the Quail Trail, which was just over a mile which was perfect for a leisurely stroll. We parked near a playground and a picnic area, and the restrooms were decent. There's plenty of parking, even another lot with great views that we decided to hike to instead. The Quail Trail itself was beautiful and straightforward, even though it was a really hot day and I was definitely sweating! But the views were stunning. Just a heads-up though, we saw some poison oak with reddish leaves, so be careful not to stray off the path. It's a fantastic park, highly recommended, especially if you're planning a picnic.

The only thing is, in that playground area, they have TWO different slides: one for ages 5+ and another for ages 1-4. PLEASE be cautious of your small kids going down the big slide...my 5 year old son ended up tumbling down halfway through because of the downward force. I'm thankful he was able to land properly 1/4th of the way through, otherwise he could've injured himself really badly. He was left with a small cut on his lip and nose. Not sure why the slide posts that it is safe for kids as young as 5 to go down it when it clearly is not. Also, they closed the slide that goes down right next to it...I should've taken that as a "sign" for my son. NEVER AGAIN.
