Positive Reviews:
Franke Beats: ★★★★
All levels of play and fairly nice group of people. Been at roof top and indoor near hear in my opinion best pickleball option in L.A. Cause there not many.
Sidney Lim: ★★★★
Nice park. We went to play pickleball and the people there are nice. The only issue I have with the park is the noise due to airplanes overhead. Not much you can do about it, though.
Matthew Rochester: ★★★★★
Tons of space and pickleball courts. Great place to play fetch with your dog on an empty day.
Jose El Taco Patron: ★★★★
Nice little park. Sometimes, a little under maintained, but I would wager that has more to do with messy patrons because people leave !@$^ everywhere.. unfortunately. Great place to find some pickleball games on occasion, but with so few courts, it gets packed pretty quickly, and at peak playtime hours, it's not unusual to end up wanting upwards of 45 minutes between games. 🫤
Siddharth jain: ★★★★★
Well maintained park with 4 pickleball courts with round robin playing pattern.
Danny Camacho: ★★★★★
Amazing spot to hoop usually a lot of people come to play pickle ball and hoop you can do pick up games here. Amazing playground. There’s also a large playing area in the back with a bunch of trees next to the cemetery. You could have party’s and picnics here with the fam.
Pen Rose: ★★★★★
Best place for a picnic :) I came here on my lunch break to relax and unwind after a long day at work. It is a beautiful little park with lots of trees and green grasses. They have a basketball court made with synthetic surface, a well maintained natural grass and dirt baseball field, and a tennis court converted into pickle ball for those who can't play on a full tennis court. Burbank always takes care of their parks.

sydney wen: ★★★★★
I dropped in solo to check it out. There are 4 converted tennis courts so it's kinda close next to each other, but the nets are good and the surface is well maintained. There is a parking lot on-site and lots of street parking available too. The locals are mostly very friendly and the games move pretty quickly.
Uriel Crisanto: ★★★★
Beautiful park, very mellow atmosphere, if you can get past the constant airplane take off noise this would be the ideal BBQ area. The kids playground is on sand, my personal preference would be cushioned foam type of platform. Besides that this park is amazing, lots of trees, lunch tables, and cozy green grass.
James Hocker: ★★★★
Right in the flight path for Burbank airport, so you will periodically hear and feel a roar and see them low, climbing right overhead. Faint smell of fumes.
Matthew Rochester: ★★★★★
Tons of space and pickleball courts. Great place to play fetch with your dog on an empty day.

Mayumi Arai: ★★★
I recently visited this park to play pickleball and wanted to share a few observations about the park's condition. While I had heard concerns about a gasoline smell potentially due to the park's proximity to Burbank Airport, I did not notice this during my visit. However, there was a noticeable odor of fertilizer, which at times smelled unpleasant. In terms of the facilities, the four pickleball courts could benefit from some maintenance. Additionally, there was significant noise from airplanes flying overhead.
Emily: ★★★
Nice park but NO TENNIS COURTS. Pickleball only.
Negative Reviews:
Tony Tran: ★★
Pickleball courts are fairly nice. However some players are not very friendly. During our groups first time, someone else had made a mistake with our paddles in the queue process. We were unaware of this mistake as we had not touched it but despite this fact, this older male Caucasian decided to start berating on about our group behind our back. He went on for minutes, making some comparison to us being in high school and “arranging chairs”. Throughout the night he kept staring at our group and giving us dirty looks. Completely killed the vibe of an otherwise a friendly community. Beginners beware!!
