Glen Sato: ★★★★★
Low key and not too crowded, three tennis courts(pickle ball lines on one court), basketball courts and a bathroom. They updated their kids playground and during the summer, they have a small ankle height pool.
Joe H: ★★★★★
Very clean and recently renovated playground with basketball and tennis courts with a small skate Park. Playground: One playground is for younger toddlers where the other is for kids 5-12.
Mercy L: ★★★★
There are tennis courts, place is clean. Great place for tennis practice, preferably with a partner.
El Nuevo Mundo Market: ★★★★
It's a little hidden, but it's easy to get to. It's an excellent location for walking, tennis, and kids.
Connor Duffy: ★★★★★
The tennis courts are currently under construction.
Oscar: ★★★★
Nice small park with many things in such a small area. They have three okay and fairly lit tennis courts, a wading pool for kids, fairly modern playground, and basketball court. The basketball court has no lighting and is not that great condition but playable.
Eric Sandoval: ★★★★★
Nothing fancy. Basketball court, tennis courts, and a playground. Simple layout
Patty C: ★★★★★
Small community park. With nice tennis courts.
Daniel Rojas: ★★★★★
Great family park with wading pool and tennis courts. Loved the jungle gym
Jessica Sulahian: ★★★★★
Nice park for kids to play at, benches for parents, sand under the equipment, a basketball and tennis courts.
Shawn Sickler: ★★★★★
Playground, tennis, basketball. Clean park, restrooms closed for some reason
Arnetta M: ★★★★★
Great tennis courts and the entire park is very quiet and well maintained. Doesn't seem spacious enough for a big picnic but certainly great for play dates with the little ones or a nice place for reading, yoga and light exercise. Lots of squirrels!
C. Stuart: ★★★★
One of the hidden gyms (see what I did there?!) of local parks. Lots of shade, apparatus, basket ball hoops and tennis courts! Locals hangout here - nice.
Skip Boyden: ★★★
Played tennis the seats were removed from the benches , I guess due to the virus, So could not sit down and relax
King Steve: ★★★★
Lovely little park to bring the kids to when you're in the area. Also a nice place to place a game of tennis if you're that kind of person. Nothing too spectacular but that's the beauty of it.
Gian Godet: ★★★★
Most of the time quite and quaint. Nice tennis courts, and a nice place to visit with the kids.
Alicia Simmons: ★★★★★
Great space. Enclosed play structure. Mostly sand. Big kid and baby swings. Outside of enclosure is lots of great and trees. Basketball and tennis courts. Quiet but close to fwy. Small wall around the perimeter to make it nice and removed from the streets. Feels safe. Had lots of fun!
Tywana: ★★★★★
We LOVE this park! I bring my 9 year old daughter here every day before homeschooling. The tennis courts are easily accessible, the grass is always manicured and the bathrooms extremely clean for a very old neighborhood park. The summer time wading pool is also a big hit if you have little tykes...My kiddos are too big for this now but when they were tiny tykes, they adored it.
Derek Hoyt: ★★★★
Nice tennis courts!
Tywana Wright: ★★★★★
We love coming here. The park boasts a set of tennis courts, play area, and wading pool which is awesome during the summer months. My daughter is 9 and we literally come here every day before starting homeschooling. Great community gathering space.

Jessica Guardado: ★★★★★
The renovations to this park are amazing! There’s two play gyms. One is for younger kids and the other for older kids. There’s even swings for “baby and me.” I can’t wait to be able to visit when the splash pad opens too. Overall it’s great park! Even the grass is greener now.
Katie Gardner: ★★★★★
As most locals know Hollyglen Park was recently renovated. It’s awesome and way better then before. We love it. No more sand! Hooray! And the whole park seems more spacious now.
Royce Khan: ★★★★
Loved this park because of how clean it was. It also has very beautiful colors.

Katie C: ★★★★
This park is amazing!! Can't wait for the splash pad to open. The ONLY negative I have is that they have sand everywhere. So a trip to this park will inevitably mean a trip to the bathtub immediately after. Other than that, we love the equipment and space! Basketball courts, tennis courts, splash pad, picnic area and love the friendly Holly Glen neighbors that go here! We'll definitely be back:))
Jamie T: ★★★★★
This is one of my favorite parks. Had many play dates, happy memories at Holly Glenn Park with my children and now granddaughter. It's a nice park for a picnic, to play basket ball, a game of tennis or just enjoy the play area. The park is nice in the mornings very toddlers friendly. Park gets busy with middle school kids after 2:00. Summer the little pool is opened with park staff supervision.
Nancy T: ★★★★★
Date: May 28, 2024. I'm so glad I stumbled on this gem of a park!! It's so pretty and seems newly renovated. It's very clean and the kids love it! There's two playgrounds and some little things in between. My toddler loves climbing the stairs to get through the tunnel and slide down the big tube slide! I love that it's fully covered so my younger one isn't afraid of going down it too because he can't slip off! The restrooms are also very clean and plentiful. They sit right next to the exercise machines. They also have a parking lot next to the tennis courts but plenty of parking all around on the streets as well! I've seen the wading pool but never got to check it out when it's open but it's pretty big! Hope we get to check it out next year but it's always so much cooler in the South Bay. They have swings and ones where an adult can sit on the end while the child sits in front of them and my babies love it!! So much easier and more fun than just pushing them behind. And this way you can see their full reactions as they swing! Woowoo!! As you can tell, I'm a big fan of this park! Always a hit with the boys and love that it's so fresh and clean! Oh also plenty of benches around! And the ice cream truck is always there!

Since I have been spending the last week here, I decided to Yelp about it. This park rocks and it's tucked away in a cute little neighborhood. It has some great amenities - tennis courts, BBQs, a gated park, tons of shade and picnic tables, and the best part - a wading pool for the kids! I have been spending most of my time in the wading pool with my two year old. It's only open during the summer months, Tues-Sat. I know it opens around 10:30AM and I'm not sure what time it closes but it's extremely clean. They drain it and refill it every night, and have people there throughout the day who clean out leaves, etc. and even play games with the kids. And it's free! It's a perfect summer beat-the-heat solution for toddlers and small children, and it feels great as a parent to have my feet in cool water! Some tips that I've picked up while I'm there - morning hours are best, because day camps come in the afternoon. Fridays are the busiest day. The least busiest time I went was Saturday AM.

Reviewing the tennis courts only. Live literally across the street from the courts and do not have the benefit of using them because they are always full! Good luck trying to casually hit balls on the weekend or after work. There are tournaments, practice leagues, doubles leagues, etc. The only upside is that the park shuts down at 9pm, which is an hour later than the Del Aire tennis courts. The best time to go is as soon as the park opens and even then, there will be others waiting to grab a court.
Son Tran: ★★★
Very dim lights system on tennis court.
Ethan Orantes: ★★★
Played basketball late at night with a few friends of mine and its the best with a sma BBQ area and a play area for kids, just had to deal with some of the locals telling us to go home since we don't live around the area but still had a good time.
Skip Boyden: ★★★

Claudia Guzman: ★
This review is specifically for the tennis courts. There are 3 courts total. The first court is always taken by pickleball. The other two courts are first come first serve. One light on the last court goes on and off. Both the freeway and the pickleball court are really loud. So loud you can barely hear your opponent, like the score. To get to the middle court, you have to go through either the first or third court. Well today we constantly had kids going in and out through our court. There's also no respect for people waiting. The other day, after waiting over an hour, we asked asked how long they had left and the response was "idk, maybe another 45 minutes". This is the last time we'll come here for tennis.
Lidia Alvarado: ★
I was very disappointed because I drove a long distances to take the kids to this little pool and it was closed and also the kids playground. So it was a waste of time and gas which is expensive..I would appreciate if they would take the time to update their information on the internet.
