I grew up around this park and have had several friend gatherings and birthday/family parties here!…read moreI've created many memories at this park. There's places to sit and eat, open grass are to have picnics, work out, let our dog run around, and even a play ground for kids to enjoy along with a full size basketball court with the floor smooth enough to bring your roller skates! I highly recommend to bring your family here for some fresh out door activities. Only giving 4 stars cause I'd prefer a better restroom but for a park it's not bad I'm just picky lol

Most of the people wound up on the grass to have lunch. I didn't move fast enough and was all sunburned going home. On some Saturdays during the summer they have games, crafts, and activities. That was a pleasant surprise. The park itself and bathrooms were pretty clean. You might want to bring your own grill cleaner and table cloths.

Watch for the ducks, geese, turtles and fish just be sure if you hang out with the birds you have shoes that wash off easily. Bunnies are often seen in the shrubs, darling and so fun to spot. They recently gutted this entire park so everything is new. Bring lunch and use one of the picnic tables or find a tree to sit under. This is a great park with a bathroom near the playground, swing in and check it out. The gorgeous flora alone is worth the visit.

I saw a playground, a pond, a bridge, several trees, and people enjoying themselves. There are areas where people can set up for activity and eating, at least one appeared to be reserved. This park is near the 5 and 605 freeways. It was not too crowded on the Sunday mornings that I visited earlier this year.

We did our Cub Scout bridging here and it worked out perfectly! A playground, sitting area, water, and bathroom near by, along with enough room to have all of our events spread out without impeding any else's experience. In all this is a really nice park, and I'm certain we'll be back in the future. :)

Every year the Pulmonary Hypertension Association sponsors a walk, which, highlights its impact and…read moresupport it provides to many living with the disease. It provides a safe space and welcoming environment, while offering a sense of community for those in need. This year's turnout was amazing as individuals shared their personal experiences and spoke of the importance of PHA and how being a part of this association has changed their lives. Pulmonary Hypertension is a condition where the blood pressure in the arteries, which carries blood from the heart to the lungs becomes too high. The work this association has and continues to do is remarkable, which is why I will continue to be a supporter. If you know anyone with this disease, I would encourage you to share this association with them.

Water features attract a lot of fowl including Canadian geese, mallard ducks and so many more duck species, plus of course seagulls and crows, pigeons, and a large number of turtles. Very fun for kids to explore. Slides and climbing are built into the structures. Adjacent to neighborhoods so lots of street parking, as well as a separate parking lot. Playground equipment geared for the 3 to 12 year old kids. Lots of covered sheds and picnic tables- those are available for Cerritos residents to rent, but otherwise are free for use. Also has grills if you want to barbecue. Clean bathrooms, onsite toddler pre-K programs offered. Lots of well maintained grassy areas and shady trees.

The lake area with the little church in the background is a nice touch, makes it feel more relaxing and not just your typical park. Good walking paths, plenty of grass, and nice spots to just sit and chill. Everything felt well kept and safe, which is a big plus when you're bringing kids. Plenty of room so it didn't feel overcrowded either. Only thing watch out for duck poop on the walkways and grass, especially near the water. Overall, great spot for families. Definitely coming back

The park is gorgeous, hidden in the quiet hills of La Mirada. It's a hot spot for locals and dog lovers. Super clean, everyone is respectful and kind which adds to the charm of this park and the pride of La Mirada. Perfect place to put in your ear buds and zone out for a few hours while getting your steps in.

Unfortunately another large dog came in with his mom and decided to poop wayyyy too many times. I was worried about a virus so we left. Mom was trying to clean up but really just needed to take her sweet girl home. I was concerned about a stomach ailment since some feces was very loose, please go to the large dog side please next time. . My girls once they chilled a bit , first time, had a blast. Please be sure when you visit to close both gates on your way in and out and clean up after your fur baby. This park is so cool with tons of grass, little hills, a water station , benches and a separate area for large and small dogs. What a blast!! Love it.

It is rarely crowded and there is a lot of (hilly) space where Fido can run and play. There is a separation for the small and large dogs. If you go on a weekend, parking is challenging since Costco customers are parking in the lot too. During the week there is plenty of parking. Just like any other dog park, watch where you step.

There's not much shade on the wide path, but I read from other reviews that the narrow paths have more shade, but more difficult. My own verdict on that, is yet to be determined. I'd have to come back soon!
