There are lovely…read morebiking/walking paths, large grassy area, drinking fountain, port-a-potty, extensive play ground equipment with swings, slide, balance & climbing equipment, benches, picnic tables and a sunshade. Its not overly busy no matter what time you go. There's always friendly neighborhood folks with their kids and/or dogs to play together. The port-a-potty gets locked at sundown to discourage transients from making this park their home. I'm sure you can reserve the shade structure & picnic tables for parties. We like to ride the bicycles down to the park then play on the play ground equipment or kick the soccer ball/throw the baseball/football/frisbee til the kids wind down and its time to bathe & bedtime. I guess they were collecting money for the park by selling engraved bricks, what a neat idea!

As much as I enjoy visiting all types of public parks, "Eugene H Ahner Park" is just average…read moreat-best. Location-wise, this particular park is only a quick 6-minute drive from my home. And as far as the overall size, it is quite impressive. Located directly on Manzanita Ave. and just south of Coyle Ave. in Carmichael, this park serves residents from Carmichael, Citrus Heights, Fair Oaks, and Foothill Farms. Ever since moving close to this area back in 2016, I've been here at least a couple of dozen times. Parking can fill up on the more comfortable days and at times, I have had to park across the street and walk. Now I will start off with the good... The park is spacious with lots of greenery to enjoy a picnic, play frisbee, play football, and sunbathe. There is even a decent sized walking trail that circles around the whole perimeter of the park, roughly 1/3 mile. Additionally, there are several basketball courts (with fully intact rims and nets), tennis courts, two large play structures (complete with swings, slides, a jungle gym, a rocking car, and other various kid-friendly things. There is also dedicated workout/exercise gear here including an elliptical and a back/arms combination apparatus. And finally, there are drinking fountains that were in working order the last time I came here. Now I will state out the bad... The main downfall (that many other Yelpers have mentioned) as well as something ongoing at many public parks is the homeless issue. Many of which keep to themselves but nonetheless, it can be a deterrent for many families not to visit here. Another is some of the open-air drug/alcohol use. During several occasions, many visitors have sat in the parking lot while playing music, getting high, and drinking. I've noticed on several occasions local law enforcement monitoring this area so hopefully that will help to a certain extent. And then there's the public restrooms; my advice is that if you don't have to go, then don't. I've had to use it and at times here has been no running water, no soap, and no paper towels. All in all, "Ahner Park" is just A-OK for me; I recommend coming here during the late-morning and afternoon hours for the best experience. There is lots of natural sunlight without a ton of trees so it is always good to bring a hat/visor and sunblock if you stay for a prolonged period. Again, as long as you use common sense, watch your surroundings, and lock your vehicle, you should be fine. With that said and done, I am giving Ahner Park just an average 3-star rating.
