Mary Gomez Park and Pool 651 Bucher Avenue, Santa Clara, CA 95051

"It’s a cute place. It has a nice paved walkway with trees and open fields bordering it. The park has a basketball court, a pool, and two tennis courts (behind the pool), as you walk in. It has a playground and picnic area down the path. They are both nice, the picnic area is an average size. After that, following the path they have a very nice, shaded tree area and more open field. In all it’s a nice place. The only downside is that the pool is not public. But I don’t mind, that’s not the reason I go, the reason is to have a nice walk with my friends, family, and nature."

"Pool is nice, warmer than the ISC pool, what suits the kids better as they are not swimming that many laps. Only downside is probably the neighbors, acting as the roads belong to them with all the cones. Or parking in the driveway and sticking out through the sidewalk. People will be people I guess"

"Pool is smallcand shallow, I guess. They even categorize each lane for fitness level. I probably will use it when isc closed due to mechanical problems. Came to visit only but will try to see. In my opinion it's good for kids, not suitable for adult lap swim."

"Went during the afternoon and there wasn't alot of ppl. If your looking for a playground with sand, this is the spot. Nice play area for the kids and a shared area with benches right close to the play area. The park is a long strip and somewhat enclosed on two sides. But it's nice and green with plenty of shade. I did see a basketball court at the other end as well. The picnic area too was shaded. A big plus for eating out here"

"Equipment is a bit outdated but kids still have fun here. It's not accessible for people of all abilities; it does have two play structures and swing sets (2-5, 5-12). There is a nice grassy field and many trees, as well as a restroom. There are 13 parking spots and a handicap parking spot and lots of neighborhood parking. It was fairly quiet on a Saturday evening. Park closes 1/2 hour after sunset."
