The workout equipment is very fun for kids and adult to play together. Then they also have a playground that kids can switch around. When u walk to the other side of the playground they have zip lining! It's super fun, The only down side is there is lots of poop, probably from people walking their dog and didn't clean up after. So make sure watch your step! Wish they can help keep the park clean. This is a very fun park ! Will be back if in the area. This is definitely hidden gem.

Our visit was in July 2025 to this cute Fair Oaks park within a small neighborhood. The park has a…read moresmall splash pad, and two playgrounds one for younger and older children. My granddaughter who is 8, loved the splash pad & the younger kids playground. The park is not gated and is adjacent to a walking path. Be careful if you have a little runner. The splash pad has a high water bucket dumping water in different directions. There was only one working water spout for the little kids when we came and the frog sprays water but you have to click the yellow button on the blue pole to make it work once it turns off. The older kids playground she loved the round rope swings but did get rope scrapes on back of both legs from swinging on them so be careful. Next time will use a towel under her legs. The big net play structure is fun if you want to just climb around but to get to the slides there is a big gap between the net structures that you have to go past in order to work your way across the rope bridge then to the slide. She was disappointed she couldn't get over to slides as a big gap she couldn't reach other side safely. Really wish there were rope stairs going straight up to slide area so kids can play on slide that can't do rope structure. The younger kids playground was nice. Multiple climbing structures that included a slide, rope hammock, a turning swing type activity. Parking is along the street only. Park has Drinking fountains and clean bathrooms. There are two picnic table areas. One down by the playgrounds and another by the splash pad.

There's plenty of room to expand, so hopefully they can add additional amenities moving forward. Plenty of adjacent street parking in the community. Recommended.

Sunrise, a surprise 3.5 miles, and a birthday fitness gift!…read more Took my wife out to Maidu Regional Park for a 3.5-mile walk/hike as part of her birthday fitness gift, and honestly, this place did not disappoint! We got there around 5:45 AM while it was still dark because we really wanted to catch the sunrise. And let me tell you... it was absolutely worth getting up that early! Now, my wife wasn't exactly thrilled about the idea of 3.5 miles -- mainly because I may have conveniently left that little detail out beforehand. ‍ She survived though! The trail was well paved, clean, and felt very safe. There's also plenty of parking, and the parking lot was well lit. The actual trail wasn't lit, but honestly, it was so clean and easy to follow that we didn't really need it. I kept my phone handy and used the flashlight from time to time whenever my wife thought she heard something. As the sun started coming up, the whole experience got even better. Definitely a trail I'd like to come back to during the daytime because there's plenty to see and experience. And the timing was perfect. As we were leaving, a baseball team was starting to gear up for the day, which was a pretty cool way to wrap things up. Overall, 5 stars all day! Great place for a morning walk, some exercise, fresh air, and a beautiful sunrise. Two thumbs up! Definitely worth checking out!

I am quite a bit surprised that one of the cleanest and quietest parks in the city of Citrus…read moreHeights does not have a single Yelp review! And considering "Van Maren Park" has been opened to the public since 2005, I feel honored and privileged to give this park its very first review for all to enjoy reading. Citrus Heights has roughly 25 parks; more than your average city with less than 100,000 residents. I find an abundance of outdoor recreational areas wonderful because it allows kids to truly interact the old fashioned way by playing outdoors and enjoying the fresh air. Located in a truly quiet, suburban, and residential part of town (in between Thalia Way and Stock Ranch Road), Van Maren Park is small but also feels as if you're in the wilderness. Since this park is only amount of mile from my home, I've walked and biked here on numerous occasions ever since moving to Citrus Heights in April 2016. With well over 4 acres of land, some of the features you will find here are 8 benches, 2 covered picnic tables, 2 BBQ grills, a children's play area, a basketball court, a bike rack, and a drinking fountain. Additionally, there are several paved trails leading down to a garden & nature area as well as a wooden bridge and creek. On the several times I've frequented this park, there has been little to no people coming here! I mainly see walkers, joggers, or people walking their dogs. And without a lot of the locals that visit here, finding a parking spot (if you choose driving here) is an absolute breeze. Even in the hottest, drought-stricken summer months (July-September), there is quite a bit of freshly cut green grass. I would give this quaint little park a perfect 5-star rating if it wasn't for a few minor things. I do realize this is a small park but it is lacking a restroom. Not a big deal but if you do plan on bringing a large gathering for the day (especially small children/babies), the closest restroom is nearly 1/2 mile away. Also, even though there are trash bins, everything is few and far between. So plan accordingly if you do happen to spend a few hours out here. Overall, this is a great family park that is super quiet and a great relaxing place to spend the day.

I liked that the creek was rather clean. The parking lot was also clean. Thankfully, it seems most dog owners pick up after their pups so that was a pleasant respite! Plenty of trash bins to facilitate. Overhead lights at end of the park near Smoke Tree Court were great - they brightened as you approached. The green grass is nicely maintained. I'm sure it helps to keep the soccer players and families happy! The two tennis courts were nicely lit at the Fair Oaks Blvd end of the park and looked in great shape. At 6:00 pm PST, in the dark, they were being used. Love that. Tennis courts are open until 10:00 pm.

One man's junk is another man's treasure as they say, we found ribbons, balloons, and sequins left over from birthday parties, a feather, leaves and flowers as well!

I would recommend this renovated park that boosts 2 playgrounds with swing-sets, a restroom, water fountain, covered picnic benches that can be reserved, a little library, basketball court, soccer field, tennis courts and a walking trail. Our daughter had a blast with the friends she met on the playground and didn't want to leave! We'll be back! SYOY! :-)
