The Chaparral Park is a recreational facility that maintains a playground, volleyball courts,…read moresoccer fields, and also maintains an exercise course and several lighted ball fields, plus it has a fishing pier. The park maintains a recreational path for running, walking, biking and rollerblading.

I walk through this park every day and I always think, is this really a park?…read more This park is not bad, but its location and size are very odd. It almost seems like they didn't know what to do with the land so they made it into a grassy area and put a play structure there. Now I am sure a lot of people walk through here, especially with dogs. But there is no properly gated area for dogs. It's close to a busy street, so would you even feel comfortable taking your kids here and possibly running by cars? I am not trying to make this out to be a terrible area and I am sure it serves its purpose. This is very much a local's kind of park and it gets its occasional use. But definitely not something to drive out of your way for!

Additional pros: + There is a restroom onsite, although I cannot speak to the cleanliness of it. + There is also a parking lot with a decent amount of spots. + There are several covered areas with picnic tables, which I believe are first come, first served and free to utilize! All of this to say that if you find yourself in the area looking for a place to play, Rotary Park will not disappoint!

I've been coming up to SRP for many a-years, mainly for beach volleyball. Ballers tend to flock…read morewhere courts are safe/clean and well-maintained, and an added bonus where you can reserve them. There's lots of other activities spots too - baseball/softball fields, open fields for grass volleyball/football, basketball courts, playground, and walking paths. But I only care about the beach courts. The City of Scottsdale is routinely known for all the above with SRP courts- which is why they are always in high demand. #FirstWorldProblem There are 6 doubles courts with provided lines, lights, and ramadas with tables in the walkway between Courts 1&2 and Courts 3-6. Seriously, they know what they're doing here. A couple of years ago I called the Parks office to rent courts for my birthday volleyball tourney and the guy I spoke with indicated that they know they're good. If they aren't reserved, it's truly a toss up whether you can claim a court or not (even during summer). I only wish that other towns/cities could build as good courts in bulk much closer to me so the drive would be better, but a las.. I still end up at SRP weekly.

Update: they do have a handicap accessible port-a-potty near the parking lot. It was stinky and disgusting.

Adj: Fancy and Fun at Fountain Park…read more So while on a trip to AZ, we came to this park kind of on a whim because we were staying in Fountain Hills. It was close to the hotel we stayed at and I read some great things about this park and my kids loved playgrounds, so off we go. It's been redone so it did not always look so fancy schmancy, but let me tell you this town and neighborhood is quite well to do so I think the funding is not lacking. The park is right next to the man-made lake which is made famous because of the fountain that goes off multiple times every day! But back to the park, the playground really is fun. There's things to climb, slide down, run onto, jump up and down on, and even a zip-line like thing that was kind of scary for me (yes, I'm a scaredy cat). My kids had a great time on that thing and my son in particular went crazy on it going back and forth multiple times. Overall, this is a great park, the playground alone is worth a visit, but then there's covered seating area not far from the playground, and right next to that there's a musical section where you can hit on different metallic objects to make music! My kids really had fun w/those things. There are benches for parents to chill after exertions on the play structure. The view of the lake is nice from anywhere at the park too. Lovely and enjoyable. We would love to visit again.

Bonus is that there's a bathroom that is clean and kept up during the official park hours. There are two different park entrances and parking areas. The second one further up the road is the one that has more spaces available during the early morning. Just know on the weekends, this place is packed and that you usually have to compete with the sports leagues for spaces to park and will have to park on the street. Glad to have a nicely maintained, safe community park so close by.
