Located at the downtown along perimeter intersection streets of Petaluma Blvd South, E St., 4th St. & D St. It was a nice walk after breakfast from Sax's Joint Restaurant. My granddaughter enjoyed the nice playground set with slides and swings. There are picnic tables and a nice open grassy area. Restrooms are conveniently accessible. There are park benches and a covered gazebo landscaped with roses. Dogs allowed here!

Lovely creekside walks, a few cozy benches, safe trails for friendly doggies and just a incredibly cozy and lovely feel! Perfect for an intimate walk with a friend or loved one, or simply birdwatching. A natural riparian corridor (Santa Rosa Creek) runs through it. At the time of this writing, there is already no water in the creek No playgrounds and only 1 concrete path. Turn R at Oliver's Market and go straight to the end of La Salle. Street parking.

This park is great for walking your dog birdwatching having a nice, relaxing lunch, etc. The bathrooms are very rundown, but they're usually somewhat clean and always open. We had our daughter's first birthday here. It is a very nice place for a party, especially since we live so very close by but all the rules the city has now made it very difficult and they keep upping the prices for renting the area so we won't be doing that again but it was worth it at the time and a great time was had by all.

Big signs say, "NO DOGS ON THE FIELD". Dont be that guy and let your dog do a dukie on the field. Actually, don't be that guy and not even pick up after your dog at all. There are tennis courts and when I came, it seemed to look like there was a little dog park happening in the tennis court area? Not sure if that is a regular thing ? It seemed like it was. There are 2 great play structures for your kiddos to romp and play (see my attached pics) I felt very safe with my son on the equipment for the smaller structure. Not many trees or shade here at this park. There are bathrooms but are unclear if they were opened or not ? I know in summer during games they are. Not sure about the off season? There was caution tape around them.

I have to give this trail 5 stars even though we spent less than an hour here. It is Christmas week…read moreand we needed to get our dog out on the trail. The last rain was about a week ago so she was beyond ready. We arrived around 4:00pm, which meant the sun would be setting at 4:45pm. Fine. We carried on anyway and it was totally worth it. The main trail begins on a straight path from the farmhouse. It cuts through an alley of trees and tall grassland, opening to reveal the (now) green rolling hills of Petaluma countryside. For those seeking the stillness of winter or to hear the songs of nature, this is your spot! There wasn't another soul in sight and it was perfect! It was just us and nature. I found myself whispering to my husband so as not to disturb the energy with my voice. We walked until the shade of the sun hit the hills, then turned around. By then it was 4:40pm. A park ranger drove down the main path to ensure there were no other folks on the trail further down. She waved to us and continued on. I would venture to say that the best times to enjoy this trail would be at sunrise or sunset. The colors at sunset were right out of a picture book. 3,400 acres of pastoral scenes of bright green, rolling hills, a river running through and birds singing the songs of winter. I mean it was almost out of a movie! And I live here. Bless. Because we arrived so late, I did not notice a ranger station or any park staff on site. Surely there are but we didn't see. There is an area near parking that has a map of the trails as well as general information on the park. The park is open for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding and is open from 7am to sunset. The road returning to Lakeville from the park, Canon Lane, is also not to be overlooked. Again, right out of the picture book, white fenced, sprawling ranch property, the Petaluma river reflecting the golden hue of the sun. It should be taken into account that this isn't a massive or well-known park so the parking area is good for under 50 cars. Probably more like 15-20 but I could have missed another area. Definitely a spot I plan to frequent more.

Not too steep of trails, gorgeous scenery, roaming cattle, sunny and cool, crisp, breezes. Not heavily populated by trail seekers so I was happy to not see many people! There was ample parking, as well as quite a few handicapped spaces. Too, plenty of restrooms and little portable hand washing stations. We also saw a few equestrians loading there horses into a trailer as we saw numerous horseshoe prints along the trails. Although this day wasn't great, due to the horrific news of the loss of Kobe, and his daughter, visiting this Regional Park was an unexpected treat.

They have a bathroom near the parking lot that they keep clean. There are several different trails that you can take and some that connect to Jack London Park. We hiked the Bennett Valley Overlook Trail, which is a 3.7 mile out and back trail. Dogs are not allowed on this particular trail so you will have to leave your four legged friends home if you decide to hike this trail. The overlook has stunning views. There are two picnic tables if you want to pack a lunch/picnic and enjoy the views for longer. Most of the trail is not shaded so something to consider and bringing a hat may come in handy for this reason and wearing sunscreen on sunny days. Also wear hiking shoes and bring water to stay hydrated along the way. We enjoyed our hike and the views and look forward to hiking some of the other hiking trails soon!
