There's also a basketball court and a community center, which makes the park useful for different kinds of events. The playground area is decent, especially for kids. I noticed the padding looks like it was recently redone, which is nice. The play area has a little wall climber, slide, pole, and stairs. I do think the wood around the slide area could use some updating because it looks kind of old, and the slides seem extremely high, which I think should be changed or made safer. The bathrooms are currently being redone, so that's good to see. Overall, it's a decent park with good space and activities for families.

This is a nice local park to go to. I happen to not come here for a long time even though that it's…read morevery close to where I live. The park has improved over the years since they added bleachers at the parking lot as well as renovating the playgrounds. It's not really a big park but it's convenient for those who live really close to it. They have a building called Irvington Community Center, which I think is a place for children's activities. There is another building which is small. I think it was supposed to be a library, but is recently closed. Right next to it is the ballot drop box, where I usually go to drop my ballot envelope. Nothing much changed overall but it's good to reminisce the memories I have going here when I was a kid.

For those with young children, you'll appreciate the two separate play structures tailored to different age groups as well as the gigantic grassy field perfect for field games and picnics. The play structures include a number of modalities like swings, small slides, and climbing structures. The flooring is tan bark so be careful with splinters. Those looking for an outing to hang out or share food can take advantage of the many picnic tables and barbecue pits scattered around the park. Trash cans are also readily available so needless to say, the park is quite clean. Most of the tables sit under trees so you'll be shaded from the beating sun most times of the day. They also have a small, well-maintained basketball court with nice nets for a pickup game. I've rarely seen anyone playing so if you do come with your own crew, you'll have some private time to yourselves. Street parking is available but if you drive further in, you'll be able to make use of their parking lot. There are some small shaded areas in the lot and plenty of spaces. Overall, Birch Grove Park checks all the boxes for park goers and it seems the city does a great job to maintain it so it'll hopefully continue to be for years to come!

This is my new favorite park to bring my daughter to…read more Pros - Plenty of street and a private lot available. Two playgrounds - one for smaller kids and the other for bigger kiddos, a basketball court and plenty of open green space. Open and clean bathrooms. A plus right there. Lots of trees that provide shade for the playground. Sandbox for the kiddos to make sand cakes. Cons - none! Of course it tends to be busier on the weekends. We've gone usually in the mid-morning and it's not crowded at all. Families or groups are setting up for their parties. Otherwise it's a great neighborhood park.

Plenty of parking when we went right…read moreafter dinner and walking the stretch around the lake is enough to kill around an hour if you're just jaunting around and more than enough to digest a big meal. Around sunset on a Monday there were still lots of people sitting on the benches, walking, biking, jogging, and roller blading. Felt pretty safe, but when the sun sets there's not many walkway/street lamps so keep that in mind. Lots of Canadian geese and we got to see their awkward teenage goslings. There's some ducks and we got to see what looked like cormorant and I think a small heron. We also got to see small song birds and some robins too. It's neat that they have bird houses on some of the trees too and we got to see some ground squirrels. I think the prehistoric themed playground is super nice too. I LOVE themed things so the little saber tooth structure from the distance was quite nice. Along the lake are some "work out equipment" like a pull up bar and parallel bars. Lots of bird turds, so be wary of where you walk, but other than that. A solid park.

Just a street away from supermarkets, cafes and popular eateries, Northgate Community Park is a common suggestion in between errands, especially if it involves playgrounds. It's also just a few blocks from the highway entrance which makes this place an easy meet up spot for out of towners. Parking is abundant in the private lot but also plenty available along the street. The kids have a great time here due to the open play area and variety of modalities within the play structures. The play structures were recently upgraded and includes swings, slides, climbing walls, ropes, balance beams and steps. The ground is all padded and there are plenty of benches for those looking to have a comfortable vantage point to keep an eye on your little ones. For field activities, they have two large grass fields frequently used as cricket fields with some local pick up games. The perimeter is also very walkable with paved sidewalks for those looking for a route for their four legged furry friends. Basketball courts are also available but pretty limited. For families looking for a spot to hang, they have a nice picnic area with benches and tables, however, it's not shaded so you may want to bring your own covering or find a spot on the grass instead. There aren't that many spots so you may also want to come early to reserve them or go through the city to secure a spot. They had bathrooms before but I believe they were under maintenance when we last visited and they only had the portable potties available. Overall, Northgate Community Park has some of the most unique playground structures and best maintained in the area. Its location is also a highly travelled one for those aiming to couple the day outside with a meal or some productivity. This quiet park is frequented by locals and you're bound to meet some new friends from the neighborhood!

Northgate Community Park is located here in North Fremont, behind 99 Ranch Market, Fremont. I've…read morebeen here a few times with a group of friends mine, that I hang with. This community park, is pretty big with a decent sized parking lot. The park is pretty clean, there wasn't much trash or anything else lying around except for a shopping cart, lol. It has one basketball court, with nets attached to the baskets. I believe there is a volleyball court, however you need to bring your own net in order to play. There's like at least 3 baseball/softball fields here for you play either one, so that shouldn't be a problem. Now, for the little younger ones, there are 2 playgrounds. One for little ones, and one for older ones to play in. There pretty well kept, clean, and easy for kids to use. This community park, does have a restroom/bathroom for you to use, although I've never used it before. Overall, this is a great park to spend sometime just to chill, play, have fun, be athletic, and be outgoing! I've had some great memories playing at this park with some of my best friends. We all had a great time. I'm sure you will too, if you just do something fun! The reason I gave it 4 stars is because it's a big park, but not all of the park is being used.. There's a lot of empty space filled with grass that could be put to better use. I've taken pictures of the park as well.

There were plenty of shade and a lot of picnic tables for you to sit on especially during this time of quarantine. I also appreciate that the bathrooms are still open, but I will have to say that there are no windows in there so it could be a bit scary. Besides the grassy areas itself, the park also has a lot of tennis courts, baseball fields, basketball courts, and volleyball poles (bring your own net). Will definitely come back to this park, most likely on a weekday - probably, will have way too much people on the weekend.

One thing about this baseball league is that the kids make really good friends - more than on their soccer or basketball teams because baseball is truly a team sport! I coached the tee ball team this year and was so impressed with the kids listening skills and their encouragement; always cheering for their teammates. You can see these children grow a lot in 3 months! I also love that baseball can be for children as young as 4 and has boys and girls on their teams.
