Reviews
"Great dog friendly park. Lots of enclosed areas to pet the dogs off leash and a nice little dog park tucked away. The lake is pretty to watch from one of the surrounding benches. There's also a playground and bathroom nearby."
"Mountain lake Park will always be an iconic location for kids of all ages. It's great to see the constant upgrades, and the close to detail attention the grounds keepers are paying towards from the landscaping, habitat, and patrons alike. There have been many mistakes in planning this part of the freeway that are now making the best effort to rebuild and remedy such issues. For the most part I am welcoming the return of the turtles who were native to the area! Great place to take in the nature, have a picnic, play, have fun, and explore. I sure hope that many will come and enjoy the great things this little park has to offer, as I have done over the years of being here."
"Huge park, with a lot to explore, but the children's play area is actually really neat in itself. HUGE slide. Nice, clean bathrooms on site. Definitely a lot different than Golden Gate Park. Be sure to check this place out if passing through."
"Lovely park. Spacious with slides, swings, and various climbing structures. My 10&12 yr old enjoyed the place - although they hooked up with other kids to play hide&seek in and around the playground. There is a toddler playground and an older kids side. Both side looks fun with lots of climbing apparatus. The playground surface is rubbery, bouncy, and safe for toddlers and those that are likely to tumble from time to time. It's clean. Huge plus! Wonderful foggy view of the lake today, but it's good to be outside watching the kids play. Playground is right by the toilets. There is a picnic table right next to the bathroom. It overlooks the playground."
"Hidden gem with a lake and basketball and tennis courts. Kids can play on the gym. Go west in the park for romantic hills and a dog run. It's not Golden Gate Park, but a small new discovery."
