A large regional park offering extensive play ground equipment, a lake that permits fishing, hiking & biking & equestrian trails, redwood grove, tennis courts, sand volleyball courts, fields for a variety of sports, group reservations sites, and restrooms.
The wildflowers towered over our heads as we took the 1 mile hike to the redwood grove. It was the perfect day... not very hot! I can imagine that this trail gets pretty toasty without any trees to shade it. In 2008 a wildfire swept through this area and the wildflowers that grow there today show the amazing recovery that nature can make!
The first thing that my kids saw when we drove into this park was the playground with 6 large red slides coming down it. They could hardly wait for me to stop the car so they could run down the hill and start sliding. The play structures were plentiful and satisfied my 2 - 10 year old for a long time. The only problem was that the bathroom was pretty far away, and up a big hill!
This park has a lot to offer and we enjoyed only part of it today! The playground, the hike and the beautiful wildlife we saw today (egrets, bluebirds, butterflies, snakes and ladybugs) was all awesome!
