Jeff Cooperhouse: ★★★★★
Beautiful park! Love the fountain with ducks, herons, turtles, and pidgins. Plenty of baseball and other sport fields. Lots of shaded benches. Perfect for hosting an event or having a picnic. Nice playgrounds for children. Plenty of well kept restrooms. Lots of parking. Honestly one of the best parks I’ve been to. Definitely recommend!
J L: ★★★★★
One of our favorite places in Palm Desert! Beautiful park with lagoons, turtles, ducks, play area, sport courts/fields and we were able to view the artists in action during the Plein air festival! A great place to have a picnic and unwind!
Jon S: ★★★★
Recently visited this park for the first time. It's a great place to play and or relax, has a playground grassy hills, flat area, a stage, near by parking and quiet areas, no homeless that I could see and is open all the time. Pretty flowers and a bridge. Walking distance from the local community college. Police not far away. Not sure if it's lit at night or not.
Sharon: ★★★★★
Son had a baseball tournament here. Beautiful ball fields. Bring your own chair and shade as there are only concrete bleachers and not much shade. Didn’t see much of the rest of the park but it looks well maintained and has offerings for so many different activities.
Kathy Condon: ★★★★★
Always have appreciated this Park. On this particular day, went to the first Water Lantern Festival held there. Walked by the rose garden and gazebo...pretty as always. Then sat at the edge of water and waiting for the sun to set. At sunset, we set our lanterns into the water...containing our wishes and desires for the future.
