    Sunday mornin' Pickleball
    Fran V.

    I was looking for a pickleball court close to a friend were we could meet up. This worked so we met up on a Sunday morning. There are two tennis / pickle ball courts. Outside and just a short walk from street parking. I followed google directions which took me to the park parking lot, however that was closer to the playground. I found it was a little closer to park next to elementary. Only saw one other player the hour + we were there. Even though it's not close to me, it works and it's not nearly as busy as trying to play at Cyan in South Reno.

    Lots of shady picnic tables!

    Wide open ocean of thick green grass! Just want to take off my shoes and run around in it. Lots of mature trees giving respite shade to the picnic tables and walkways. There is a restroom, playground and other sports amenities. The cemented walkways lead out of the park between the subdivision. The Googs maps won't direct you to the actual parking lot, but one can park all around the perimeter of the park in the residential area.

    Picnic tables under the trees.

    Pah Rah Park is one of the best parks in Sparks. The park is very big and has a lot of grass and trees. There are 4 playgrounds at Pah Rah Park. The main playground is located in the center of the park. During the summer a temporary shade is put up over the main playground. The main playground is very cool. There is a great climbing area made of ropes. The main playground has a soft padding underneath. There are plenty of things to play on at this playground. The three other playgrounds have wood chips underneath. There are swings located at three of the four playgrounds. The main playground is the only one with toddler swings. There are two horseshoe pits at this park. There are several covered eating areas at this park. There are several mature trees which provide shade. There is a paved walking path which goes through and around the park. There are basketball hoops at this park. However, the hoops and the courts are absolutely pathetic. The hoops are broken, they have been broken for at least a year. The court itself is falling apart. The whole court needs to be replaced. I hope the city can do something about the basketball court at this park because the kids deserve better than what is provided. The park has bathrooms which are usually pretty clean. There are tennis courts at this park. The park is clean. A parking lot is available to park in. Have fun out there. -Dadzone

    Amazing park in Reno - from a Reno native, by far our favorite place to go. 10/10 recommend

    I have been to this park many, many times. Often times I have been here with the local homeschooling community. On the day I checked in I was here for a graduation party. It is the only park I know of where you can come and have a BBQ without having to have a permit. This park is large and the play equipment has been revamped and is fairly new. There are two entrances into this park. The first one is off of Vista and the second entrance is off of Shadow Lane. The Vista entrance has a parking lot. You will have to park on the street if you go to the other entrance off of Shadow Lane. The variety of play equipment is good for most ages from the very little to older kids. There is a basketball hoops for practice, tennis courts, volley ball area with sand, horseshoe pit near the smaller kids equipment at the top of the Park near where the parking lot is located. There is covered tables both at the upper equipment and closer to the lower equipment. There is a ton of grassy space for blankets and kids. Bring a frisbee or other lawn toys for kids to play. There is a huge jungle gym, merry go round, swings etc. I agree with other reviewers that the parking lot is hard to find as it looks like you are driving into a residential area. Keep driving around the corner and you will see the parking lot. This park is often packed on weekends. It is near Jerry Whitehead Elementary school.

    We lost a player today....

    This is our go to park! It has a few different play areas with one large play area in the middle. In the summer months they have a canopy over it all to keep it from getting to hot to play on. There is lots of grass and trees to enjoy. There are also several covered patio areas with charcoal grills. Bring a basketball to play on the two half courts available or try your back hand on the tennis courts. And if neither of those are for you... then try the baseball field! There is a drinking fountain and a really nice bathroom building which is maintained really well.

    Coolest play structure in Sparks? This just may be it!…read more I've had my eye on this park for a few months now and despite numerous efforts, I couldn't get there with my kiddo, until this weekend! The stars aligned and this was our chance, so play we did! The playground has the coolest climbing stuff I've seen including wacky ladders, rock wall type holds, and the coup de gras, the giant rope diamond in the center! There are also great slides and fun stuff to spin around in, plus a lot more. The grounds are kept clean. The parking is so easy. It's virtually brand new. And there are event tennis courts, a gazebo and a walking trail too. This is a great spot! Can't wait to come back!

    This is definitely one of the coolest playgrounds in Sparks. The playground is unique and has a lot…read moreof fun to offer. You can climb through the whole playground without ever touching the ground. The "spider web" in the middle of the playground is big. The kids loved climbing on it. A soft padding is underneath the playground. There are no swings at this park. There is a full court basketball court at this park. There is a grassy area and a paved walkway to enjoy. There is a covered eating area with picnic tables underneath. There are tennis courts at this park. There are bathrooms at this park. The park has its own parking lot. The park is located next to one of the many Sparks Fire Stations. So if you or your child gets injured, the response time should be very fast. Side note: This park is fantastic. The issue I have with this park is the location. The park is located next to McCarran Blvd. There is a right turn which passes by the park. Cars tend to be driving pretty fast in this area. All it takes is one car to lose control and plow through the chain link fence. Hopefully that never happens but you never know. At least the fire fighters are close by, just in case. But overall the park was clean and well maintained. Have fun out there. - Dadzone
