Briercrest Park

"This is a great open ended play park. There is lots of green space, instruments to play, a couple swings, giant sand box, and a big rock to climb. It’s good for scootering or bike riding."

"Beautiful park tucked away in La Mesa near the hospital. Parking is difficult but the it is worth a walk from down the street."

"Not much parking but very modern, peaceful urban park. Tucked behind Sharp Grossmont Hospital and a memory care residential building, it could easily be missed. With the recent storms, the plants are a bit battered but will hopefully come back full force once we get back into our usual hot climate. Lots of shady places here though and places to sit with some interactive areas for mostly kids but adults will enjoy looking at least once. Also, popular rock hiding spot so bring some of your own or enjoy the hunt. I usually like to relocate one to a different park to give it some mileage. I’ll add photos in just a bit; technical issues but didn’t want to wait to do a write up. Edit: Photos added which gave me a couple more what I would like to say are insights but opinions; park needs to be on a more regular maintenance schedule. It doesn’t need much but everything just looked like it had a coat of dirt over it. Yes, it’s a natural park, etc. but that doesn’t mean a good power wash and trim wouldn’t help."

"Nice little park where we take our dog for a walk. Always seems to be clean and well kept. There's a playground but it's fairly small. Has a few gardens as well with a wide warranty of plants/flowers. Sometimes will see rabbits there."
