BIG WILL: EXCEPTIONAL PLUMMER PARK PORTER I've been visiting Plummer Park for decades. Initially, it was to play basketball. As the years wore on, i frequented it to play and watch tennis, play ping pong, shop at the farmers' market and observe pickleball matches to see what appeals to so many about this "new" sport friendly to all-comers. Big Will, a DMS Porter, has without exception kept the Park clean, including the all-important restrooms which he leaves spotless. Big Will is a huge Dodgers fan. If you see him, ask him to show you the big tatoo that runs the length of his forearm. Plummer Park is lucky to have Big Will on its team! read more

We usually play tennis 9-10 pm weekdays, The courts are kept well and clean, they for sure need more lighting in the parking area specially with all the homeless arounds. But all in all, it's a nice park with a friendly crowd. read more

Do not come here to play tennis. Terrible experience. We showed up to find our assigned court taken, and the only available court was covered in balls with no way to use it properly. A staff member then approached us to say we couldn't use more than 6 balls while we were stuck dealing with a court full of them and nowhere else to go. On top of that, another player on court 3 was rude and demanded we walk all the way around them just to reach our court. Zero accountability from staff, zero organization. And the classes are a complete mess poorly run and not worth your time or money. read more

Go play Plummer Park Ping Pong with Peter its free every Saturday. Its the best. I give this park a solid 5 out of 7. But I agree with the guy that said there's too much dog poop here. Front desk staff should really pick that up themselves. I can't wait for that dog park to finally open. P.S. don't use the outdoor bathrooms. read more

I go here on Wednesdays for dancing. Parking is plentiful, security is tight, and the place is clean and easily accessible. It is close to several choices of good food that are within walking distance, so you cannot go wrong here. Enjoy! read more

My favorite local park. This is usually where I take my friend's dog when I'm sitting for her. He loves walking around here where there's a lot of shade and he bumps into a bunch of his neighborhood friends. This is also where I drop off my ballot on voting day. Fortunately, the premises are always kept clean. I don't think I've ever seen fecal matter which means people pick up after their pups! read more

Park is great for many people, there's areas to sit, people come and play chess, kids have the structures to play on ( I would say geared towards 1 and up) there's swings, tennis courts, bathrooms, parking etc! Come and enjoy the farmers market on mondays 9-2! read more

Another park we like to come to once a month. Plummer Park is a nice community park here in West Hollywood. Pet friendly and child friendly. Very nice place to be without being boggled by homeless, or trouble makers. Its located in a nice area too. Very clean and nature looking. I recommend visiting here if you are in the area. read more

Tennacity is horrible . Stringers are terrible. Private company in a public park. Holes in the court for months . Tennis net too low and again months go by. I see them giving 175.00 lessons on a net thats too low.Guy named Chris lives there and is always causing trouble and they do nothing. Ive been assaulted there no proper action taken.The guy still plays there. Owners grew up on public courts and they have taken this away from the tax payers. Had a guy swing a racket at my face no action from Tennacity. They just made courts 6 and 7 pickleball only . There's 2 free courts available for booking m-f but there's always the same guys on them . They have multiple accounts and they just book all the time they want . Tennacity does nothing about it . They are there just to try to make money only . It's just gotten worse and worse . Players that used to love to play there no longer do . Oh did I forget the blasting music from live ball and pickleball .wtf really? Yeah I want to listen to 80's sound track while hitting or whatever they come up with. read more

I don't think I've ever written a review for a park before, but it was that good! I came here with my baby and there are so many people of different languages and ages everywhere! The park is absolutely huge, with parking and public restrooms to boot! I loved how much grass there was to lay out, and the actual playground area itself is huge as well. Everybody was doing all of the activities and having so much fun. read more

**This rating is for the WeHo Arts Fair and Q-Con Event Overall: 4/5 Entertainment: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Operations: 4/5 Parking: 2/5 Entertainment: 5/5 There were so many vendors with unique merchandise all queer centered. I say if you are looking for a place to go, kill some time, and be distracted with some art in different media - this event was one to attend. It was free and A LOT to browse. Plus the separate building had a Queer-Con convention. I am not the biggest comicphile but I had a blast seeing the costumes and all the comics. Ambiance: 5/5 It was at a community center and the conference rooms made it easy to browse. The space isn't super big but spacious enough to feel welcomed and not crowded even with the tables that were laid out. There is a park next to the center which is perfect if one wants to take a break or a stroll during any of the events hosted at the center. Operations: 4/5 The event utilized two buildings and even the outdoor space. It felt organized and spacious - there was a clear flow to the fair. The tables were placed just perfect to allow plenty of space for groups to pass and interact with the vendors. The second building was close enough so it wasn't a hassle to bop around. Parking: 2/5 This was definitely the thorn of the event. The parking is very limited and not friendly unless you have a compact car. Some spaces are metered around the venue but WeHo isn't the friendliest with public parking. I was nervous my car would be scratched or hit ... Recommendations: I would have better signage so people knew where the event was for the Q-Con and even the time for all the programming that was happening. I saw it in my deep dive for pride events but it wasn't really advertised with WeHo pride or any of the neighboring prides. read more

Plummer park has been my childhood place Since I grew up in West Hollywood and very little at the time where I, would always go on the playground by going on the slides, doing some monkey bars, play on the sand, and Last but not least go on the swings which was my favorite thing to do in the park most of the time. The reason I put Two stars is because many decades ago there have been many Haikas which refers to people mostly elderly ones from Soviet union or Russia that usually sit on the tables where chess games are usually are where they would talk behind people's backs, and even sticking their noise into people's business's where it would feel uncomfortable to be around, and watch them stare back at you and not mind their own business at all. Now that I don't live in that area anymore I'm sure it's the same BS. read more

Intimate yet spacious park in West Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. It's definitely not a park you'd spot or even notice right away on a map or passing by depending on in you're coming from Fountain Ave or Santa Monica Blvd like I did this past weekend. They have tons a shade, parking and places to spread out. Definitely more narrow than wide in turns of park life. The have a community center for events and activities and tons of equipment including a playground for kids and the kids in adults, basketball and tennis courts, not to mention lots of places to sit and walk and enjoy the scenery. Someone mentioned they did/do/hopefully will do again movies in the park and this is true as we were suppose to go here two summer ago for a showing. This is definitely a less foot traffic heavy park, but a local favorite to many. The park is pretty well up kept however might of suffered in a few small areas during last years stay at home mandates. Plummer Park is definitely a must whether a walkable local, an over the hill one like myself or a visitor. Walk the dog, walk with company or just walk and enjoy yourself. read more

The dog owners have RUINED this tiny park. There are smears of poop allll over the grass (which is now in patches). So many of the old timers that play chess are very upset about it. It smells terrible. No place for the once thriving children to play as the millions of microns of bacteria in all the feces remains on the ground and can easily make children sick. Urine kills plants and trees. But do the dog owners care? Nope. They need to enforce dog leash laws and create a dog only zone. just awful. read more

Plummer Park is a great spot for pickleball. I like that they have a mix of paid reservations and open play opportunities. The parking is ample, and the rest of the park is cute, albeit tiny. Still, it's my go to for pickleball or the occasional game of tennis. read more

Head for a walk here almost two to three times a week. Small neighborhood park but lots of people always , plenty of space for a picnic. Many events hosted here all Year long. read more

Large and gorgeous park. We have been skating in the basketball courts since they are closed right now and it's perfect! They have a lot of playgrounds (closed because of covid at the moment) and a lot of tennis courts that actually are open! Plenty of green grass to work out or just hang out in. Plenty of trees but also a lot of sun! Gorgeous palm trees. My new fave spot;) read more

I saw many people picnicking and playing tennis here. There is a large outdoor courtyard meeting area that is closed off to public. There are homeless living in their cars parked in the lot. Not a clean place. On one side of the street there is lots of trash, plastic bags, cans, etc. read more

This WAS once a lovely park. But covid has turned it into a prison yard. I am Outraged by the overzealous and rude SECURITY GUARD on Christmas weekend, who was harassing families non stop. The playground for babies/little ones is the only fully fenced and enclosed space for children at the park. It is leased out by the preschool, but it's an open secret that you can use it. This HORRIBLE man kept demanding families leaves in the most unfriendly manner. Not only was it Christmas but if he was so concerned with doing his job, then the vagrant with his bum hanging out who was rolling around on the grass out of his mind, might have been a good place to start. But it's much easier to harass children and their parents, than actually do any real security work. Are these SG actually here to keep the families who use this park safe? Apparently not! And while I am pointing out their ridiculous hypocrisy... Pick up some damn rubbish!!! I have seen a mother complain about the state of the rubbish and a security guard cover it over with bark, with his foot, rather than pick it up. LAZY overpaid and useless. You are RUINING the park for the community. read more

This park feels like the myth of the American dream is real. It's really a beautiful sight to behold on a late afternoon when it's filled to the brim with people from all walks of life (shoutouts especially to the old Russian men who are almost always packed 5-6 at a table playing chess). Incredibly well maintained, fabulous amenities (free tennis courts, always packed, 2 basketball courts, playgrounds, tons of tables/benches, lovely fields of grass, ample parking, plus some mysterious buildings that I'm excited to explore whenever they reopen post COVID). Plus it's in my backyard. Nice views of Runyon from the right spots. A little slice of heaven. If you're mad about paying california taxes take a stroll around Plummer and then head to like Iowa or some shit and tell me how you feel lol. read more

Grew up here and used to spend countless hours playing basketball and rollerblading playing roller hockey. There is lots to do and always have events where u can bring ur kids read more

I love Plummer Park so much. For anyone who lives in the area, it is a green respite from busy city life, and just so, so lovely. There is really something for everyone - basketball courts, a preschool playground, old men playing chess, tables and benches to enjoy a coffee break and chat, sunbathers, people practicing karate, lots of dog-walkers...just delightful. Definitely worth a stroll if you need a little break from your day! read more

Plummer Park - Parks Near Me - West Hollywood, California

I love this park. It's a cute neighborhood park with a central lawn, playground, shady benches, tennis courts - a real community vibe. But what is the point of all of coming here to relax if you don't have access to the public restrooms? Restrooms are dominated by local junkies who will stay in them for 30+ mins at a time to shoot up. For such a beautiful gem of a park, this problem really brings the park down. Don't expect to pee after a game of tennis!!! read more

This is my neighborhood park and it's a decent spot. There is a good bit of parking, and that's nice. I've been to several meeting in a couple of the different facility buildings and they're adequate, if out-dated. There are tennis courts and a walking/running trail. Relatively clean. I feel perfectly safe walking around here during the day but don't think I'd do it at night... there are some hidden/darkish areas and even during the day there will inevitably be a few sketchy characters hanging around. Mostly, it's older Russian guys chatting and they will basically ignore you, though they do tend to grab the most desirable tables. It's a nice spot for a walk or if you want to look into hosting a meeting in WeHo. Nothing to get too excited about. Better than a lot of parks, not as good as some of the newer ones. A-OK. read more

Great place for kids and families. Very nice big playground for kids and dedicated, gated playground for toddlers. A lot of benches and picnic tables to sit, though occupied by elderly Russians playing chess. Bday parties for kids are common here. Numerous tennis courts, a wall for practice or squash, two basketball courts, workout area and large parking, there is even charging stations for electric cars on South side of the park. read more

Plummer Park - Charging points on the south parking of the park - Parks Near Me - West Hollywood, California

While visiting Hollywood, my friend and I wanted a break from the traffic and crowds and decided to search for a park. I discovered that Plummer Park was only a couple of miles from our location on Sunset Blvd in West Hollywood and seemed to be the closest park. I had no idea what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised at this relatively normal park tucked into the city. The best part, in my opinion, is the three hours of free parking. Although I only spent an afternoon in Hollywood, it was long enough to learn that not much comes free in the area. There was plenty of parking on the Friday afternoon. We set our towels on a grassy area and settled in for a relaxing rest. There was a basketball game on the court nearby and a photo shoot taking place across the way (it is Hollywood, I suppose) but all in all, it was a nice spot to relax. read more

is not a clean Park ! Too many homeless people , dog poops ...

I usually go to this Park on week Days, it is convenient and has a decent Kids Playground, If wasn't for the homeless that insist in reside on the park i would come here more often. When i think about Tennis i also consider the courts in here , they are clean and well- kept. This is in general a great community property , good for kids, adults, exercise, tennis ,basketball and to play cards : ) read more

Great family-friendly park! I've come here with my daughter and boyfriend a few times and have had great experiences each time. It's always busy but it's great because my daughter always has someone to play with! The park is clean, the playground is as clean as an outdoor playground can be, and the facilities are clean as well. The park is small but still big enough for lots of families to enjoy. My boyfriend seems to like the basketball court too! read more

Perfectly nice location, saw kids playing, dogs running around, older gentlemen playing chess. Went into a pavilion for a meeting, certainly was a nice big space, very clean. Docked one star because the folding chairs looked about five years past their end-of-service date, and the acoustics weren't great for a meeting. But still, a cute little park in a nice little neighborhood. read more

These are the reasons why Plummer Park is what every neighborhood needs: Pet friendly: trash cans are all around the park. you can even find poopie bags! Manicured green lawns: perfect for laying out a blanket and relaxing! Tables & benches throughout: usually full of Russian men playing cards.. Electrical charging: a few spots for those eco-friendly cars Parking Lot: bring your car! Farmers Market: on Monday mornings. Small, but you can find everything! Recreation Center: auditoriums... My November voting place! Kiddie area: swings, monkey bars.... Kudos to the maintenance team. This park is always clean and orderly! read more

Lovely square of recreation and nature in the middle of otherwise urban West Hollywood. Great for some outdoor activities - has tennis courts, basketballcourts, playground, plenty of benches, and an open green area perfect for frisbee, throwing the football, or relaxing with a friend. Lots of attractive people come to put in werkkkk with trainers/workout classes as well, so sometimes you get a great view as well. The persons in the park are pretty entertaining as well. Part of the beauty of WeHo is the incredible diversity in people around, adn this is definitely reflected in the park goers. From families with young kids on the playground, to older couples getting in a walk, to 20s/30s friends getting some workouts in, there's always something going on and something to watch. While there are homeless around, they aren't usually disruptive and mostly look like they're just finding a place to rest. Has a parking lot as well as street parking for convenience. read more

Cute little park set just off Fountain Avenue. It has a gym area with pull up bars etc and lots of grass and close to the tennis courts. I really enjoy it here but please note there are quite a few homeless people that enjoy the park as well. read more

Cute park , I say it's certainly good for kids/family. I usually stop by on Sundays w/ my friend and his daughter . I always see a bunch of kids running around and or kid b-day parties held by the playground area. There is also a tennis court area which seems to be popular. There are various picnic tables that are occupied all the time by chess players . Better luck next time, you can always sit on the grass if you bring a blanket . There is plenty of parking just make sure you follow the parking regulations and avoid getting a ticket. There are two different restroom locations. I suggest you go to the toilets inside the building next to the parking lot located in the back (next to the car-wash) . They are much more hygienic . Snacks, ice - cream, coffee and drinks are available for purchase inside the mini tennis building/front desk located next to the tennis courts. If you don't have kids, bring your furry friend. It's a calm park and a lovely way to spend a bit of your Sunday. read more

Its cute, sunny and well organized on an average day. However 3/5; last few times I've been I have had the misfortune of walking in dog poop (seriously guys, pick it up) and water was not working in the fountains (bummer because it was a hot day). Sometimes you have to fight to get a picnic table as the older men like to play hours of chess on there - but then thats the charm of the area. Slide up and start playing! read more

A fun discovery in the middle of West Hollywood. Adam H. was taking a minute to re-wash his car (I'm sure for the second time that week) and I got bored watching, so he told me to take a walk. I figured I'd just find some interesting street corners and that would be all. Instead I found lots of green space and picnic tables. Of course, I probably looked a little stalker-ish walking around in a hoodie texting/Tweeting/Yelping instead of enjoying said picnic tables or green space. I *heart* WeHo... and not just because of the boys. #Yelp365 - 31/365 read more

Plummer Park is ghetto! I have the right to say this, I've been a part of this park since I was 7 years old. 14 years total. This park is filled with old russian men playing cards, gambling, smoking, and cursing at one another in their native tongue. It's also filled with little children playing in the sandbox, riding down the slides, swinging on the swings, and climbing the mini obstacle course while their attentive parents, grandparents, and nannies keep an eye on them. There are also tennis courts and a basketball court where people frequently play. And there are many local events that take place here like Jewish Festivals, Russian parades, dance shows, choir performances, and plays that take place in Fiesta Hall. Also one great thing about this park is the Community Center, it was built around ten years ago, and it is filled with many rooms that frequently carry dance lessons, town hall meetings, and parties. You can find anything here from language classes, to yoga, to a plethora of dance classes... I guess you're still wondering why this park may be ghetto? Well, the people are the main reason. This park is inhabited by many russian fobs, young girls who think and dress like they are grownups, a few crazy homeless people, and druggies who try and stay on the DL. It's too funny. None of this stuff exists at Greystone park, Pan Pacific Park, San Vicente Park, or Kings Road Park. Plummer Park is one of a kind in that sense and on the surface if you were to first visit this park, I don't think you would see all of the obscurities of it, but since I've been connected to this place since I was 7, I know. You'd have to frequent this place in order to know of its "differences." This park is not bad though. During the daytime, it's very wholesome and very acceptable to bring children and families. I would recommend to stay away at night though. Plummer is just too funny. The dynamics and different groups of people that come here... well, very comical. read more

I would not advise going to this park for tennis courts cause to many times reservations have been double booked and it just ends up being a big waste of time and gas. Administration here is not organized ! Save yourself the anger and disappointment and book at other courts with competent administration. read more

Plummer Park is not on my favorite list of parks, but it is the closest to my house and when you have a screaming toddler who wants to run around and burn energy well this place seems to be the right fit. I can only speak about the park itself, it is a good size park with a playground for older children and a separate playground for toddlers located next to the preschool. There is a basketball court right next to the playground and tennis courts that are on the other side of the park. There is a recreational center that is only for teenagers along with other halls and center's for meetings, dances and other personal events. When I first started coming here about a year ago, this place wasn't as bad as it is now. And by bad I mean, elderly men taking over picnic tables to play chess and domino's making people have their picnic in the grass. I don't mean to disrespect, just that at first it was maybe one table here and one table there, but now they are everywhere and to make matter's worse, they have also taken over the toddler area which is gated! So if there is any disrespect, it is coming from them. How are mother's and caretakers going to give their children their snacks or meals? Another thing that I'm not too thrilled about is how there are too many teenagers bombarding the playground area where children play. They jump and run around small kids almost knocking them down. They have a recreational center just for them, why don't they stay there? Now I look like a helicopter mom to my 21 month old son ;/ I guess I will have to come earlier when everyone is at school and grampa's are napping. read more
