Positive Reviews:Guthrie Paterson: ★★★★★
Great park in Rustic Canyon! Excellent recreation center, great fields and playground, and nice tennis courts. A great place to visit!
Becky Newman: ★★★★★
Beautiful park. Lots of happy dogs and kids running arround; well kept tennis courts. Court time can get competitive, especially on weekends when there's a long wait. Rules are posted, some people follow, most don't.

Carey Hirschman: ★★★★★
Great local park between Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica. The park is nice size with tennis courts, basketball court, tables for eating and a field to play ball. The facilities inside are ok and need some work. I would hope the park can get fresh grass planted as it’s a mud field
Melanie Galuten: ★★★★★
This is my fantastic local park. Steeped in history... Rustic Canyon Park lies sequestered among enormous old growth trees that were planted as a forestry experiment back in the 1800s. The Park building dates back to a time when old world creatives like L. Frank Baum (who wrote the Wizard of Oz) had an enclave here called the Uplifters. The building used to be their clubhouse. The park has tennis courts, basketball courts, a cute little playground area and they also have lots of great classes like sculpture here.
Seena Samimi: ★★★★★
Good park overall, and good for kids, but Tennis courts lack upkeep and need fencing to separate the courts.
Trent Park: ★★★★★
Nostalgia!! Old Spanish era California styled court yard and sprawling open space in a secluded neighborhood with ample tennis courts and perfect for an outdoor bbq!
