Ok so we wanted to try a new park, so I gather up the kids and we head over. This park has a kids…read moresplash pad (I assume is open during the summer months.) The playground has a large rocket which is at least 30 feet high! It includes two totally enclosed tube slides and another 2-4 lower slides. In fact it was so tall I was afraid my 2-4 yo's would be too scared to go up to top, but nope! It took them 2 to 3 times walking up the stairs to gather the courage, but once they did it trying to get them off the slide to put on jackets became more of an issue. We had a water gun fight, ate some snacks and they played til they were wore out. I heard this isn't the grandest neighborhood, although I didn't experience any issues, I am not familiar enough with the AV area to give a honest opinion: good or bad about that so know that my star rating is based solely on my experience inside the park not the neighborhood. The pluses for me was that they had a clean play area and the splash zone is right next to the two grounds. One set is for say 5 yo and up and a more milder toddler area all in same eye path, so you could easily watch two sets of kids. There is a lot of grass areas so you can camp out, have a picnic and make it a day trip with young ones. There is ample parking with a well lit lot. The soccer and other fields were brightly lit so you can play organized sports at night. What I did have a issue with is: The playground isn't lit up at night. (see pics below) which I truly don't understand. We waited thinking that the timer hadn't spring forward with time, but after looking around noticed two things the light structure is set for a dim yellow almost amber light while all the fields have super bright white lights and that one light was actually on so the other 2-3 lights just hadn't been maintained! Shame on parks and rec to not thinking of the safety of children especially during spring time when families are coming back out in larger groups. And next a question for parks and rec. Why does the playground where our most precious gems would play have the dimmest lights? You are putting children at risk of falling, being touched or hit inappropriately or worse (use your imagination!) This should be the brightest lights the park has not the darn soccer field. How is any mom and/or dad going to go let the little ones play while waiting for their older ones to finish up a practice or game with little to no lights? That needs to be addressed ASAP!!! and that is the reason my rating is only a 3 star, because I think that dusk time visits would be unsafe for most families.

A father is teaching his youngest son how to 'hit one outta the park'. Small family barbeques are being planned and celebrated in the shade of one of the first-come-first-served gazebos. A future skateboard influencer is setting up a"live feed"for his tictoc fans. Cool Palmdale kids are practicing their 360s at the skateboard ramps and half pipe in the skate park.

Old friends are playing a pick up game at the basketball courts. Future Lakers in the making! Kids are playing games, swinging on swings, sliding down slides, playing sports and .. musical instruments??!! Future rock stars can practice outdoor instruments here and out. Bring the band for an outdoor concert. There's a commemorative plaque in this park paying homage to Vietnam veterans. My dad served in the military during the Vietnam war, so I came to get a picture of the plaque for him. What a great park! I'm enjoying the weather, admiring everything and everyone. I brought my takeout to a nice table in the shade. Pandemic points! Every time I come to this park I get to trade smiles with somebody different. I moved to the area for a reason, the people. This park is located in an area of the Antelope Valley that looks like a country rap video directed by Clint Eastwood starring everyone. I traded hair compliments with the most beautiful little girls I've ever seen. Rainbow beads, you are my sunshine "No YOUR hair is prettier!" In return I got one of the best smiles in my life from their father. Why do I get something better back when I give a compliment, a hug or a smile! I don't know, but this park is a premier place to practice. I left with a skip in my step. A full tummy. Cool pictures. Great advice. And. The distinct impression that this place and one smile could change the world. I drove away playing "We can work it out" from Stevie Wonder. I didn't make it out of the parking lot before I got another smile and a nod. Everybody should come check out this park. Bring your picnics, team practices, YouTube fans, your biggest smile and your family.:)

The main path is dirt, with grassy areas inside the loop which is perfect for jogging, walking, or just getting outside. There is also a smaller, paved field nearby, connected by a dirt path. Shade is limited, so it's best to bring a hat or visit during cooler hours. There are drinking fountains, a small outdoor gym setup, and public restrooms available. The space is also used for games and can easily accommodate groups. Parking is limited, but you can usually find a spot - except during events or games, when it can get crowded.

Trails were not shaded. The Interpretive Center was small, but pretty cool as they had a very active snake on display. Overall, great place to hike. They have different trail lengths.

They have so much imaginative things for them. The theme looks like bugs, actually it looks like the Ant's life around here. I wish just three things for the park. 1. They put a water element in 2. They update the woodchuck playground to that soft compound for the kids, because they can't wear sandals as hot as it is with this kind of woodchuck they stick them in their toes 3. The parking from what I see is pretty far away from the park area if you're bringing multiple children or equipment is a Long Beach like walk! Lol Other than that if I lived near here, this would be the park of choice for. I don't think they have a designated dog park area, but it's a large enough park that you could walk your dogs. They have at least two baseball fields, two tennis courts looks like it might be two basketball courts and at least 2 to 4 different areas to play soccer a skate park a barbecue pit area. Literally the only thing missing is water !!
