The best part of the park are the hill views! I love coming here with my kids while we kick the soccer ball around.

Recently got back into tennis, so I paid this park a visit with one of my friends. This is a large…read morepark with several different features, including a pool area. The tennis area has 4 courts, and they are well maintained. All 4 courts were occupied, so we did have to wait about 45 minutes or so, but it was worth the wait. I noticed there are lights on the courts, and would love to try them out one night.

Thanks for your Summer 2011 programs! My son attended a few of the very diverse offerings including…read moreChess Camp and rock climbing. Both had great instructors that really seemed to enjoy what they were doing and made things fun for kids. The prices were reasonable. In past years, he has attended summer Lego camps but those were just too pricey for us this year. Upon hearing about the fun my son was having, a friend, who lives in the Central Valley, said that she wished her town offered cool classes like Livermore. FYI. This year I signed up for classes only a couple of weeks in advance of the start date. In prior years I stressed out signing up for stuff in April only to have a few camps canceled the week prior to the start date, due to low enrollment. This year, enrolling later, only one of the camps I wanted was full. Everything else still had openings. I called and asked if the classes had enough attendees to take place before I paid. This way we avoided disappointment and childcare juggling issues.

It is a very nice neighborhood park. Livermore seems to have a lot of these small family oriented, neighborhood parks which is great. There is a nice path for walking the circumference of the park. There are also some swings, slides, etc which my grandchildren love. The park is safe and low key. I highly recommend and congratulate Livermore for having such a nice system of family oriented parks.

There is a spinner to dry your suit. The pool itself is 25 yards wide and has 12 lanes. There are four shallow lanes for people who are doing wading work. There is an advanced class that takes up four lanes at noon so it can get crowded for everyone else at that time. Water aerobics are in the early morning and other lanes can get crowded at that time as well. But the lanes are wide so doubling is not usually a problem.

I gave this place 4 stars, because he tried to contact them a couple of times and said it took them a while for them to reply back. Other than that, this place was nice inside! We had a big enough room where they did the surprise flash mob dance for me. Lol. Next time, I definitely want to rent this place for future events.

This is our preferred park for kiddie birthday parties because of the four large picnic tables…read moreunder a shady gazebo, right next to play structures, a shady lawn and a large grassy playground. It's easy to have a birthday party here while keeping an eye on all the little ones running around, and the picnic tables are not too far from the road, which makes carrying food, games, coolers heavy with ice and water bottles, and presents (on the return trip) quite easy. The tables can't be reserved and are first come first served, but we usually carry a couple of card tables, table cloths and picnic blankets - with the plan being to just move the party to the lawn if they are all busy (we have never had that happen, but that doesn't stop my über organized better half from planning for this contingency). The only thing I wish this park had was a bathroom, or even a port-a-potty, but that seems to be a problem with most parks in Livermore. This would have been a five star review if it did.

Nice park. It's fairly easy to keep all your children in view here. The larger play structure is…read morepartially shaded at times. The smaller play structure may be somewhat difficult for children to climb as it doesn't have the standard stairs to climb. My main complaint is the ornamental plum trees, which drop lots of fruit on the sidewalks and cause a huge, gooey mess. The toddlers try to eat the stuff and it gets stuck on stroller wheels. There is a hill and a large field near the playground that the kids love to run down. Just beware of the mud.

Best to look at the map to see where you need to go. There is an upper area and a lower area. Parking lot in the lower area seems to have more space, but the upper lots were full with all fields having games. If I had to nit pick, they need a larger lot as it took some time to exit when the game ended. Everyone wanted to back up and leave from the same row of cars. It was chaotic and frustrating, but the park is amazing!
