Reviews
Acres of land to horse ride, jogging, walking, running,sightseeing, dog walking, bird watching and biking. Baseball fields and swimming pool are huge.
I caught rainbow trout here in 1971 and sailed a sailboat in 1980. That’s it, move on.
Love this place, there’s new trails to explore and it can be quite big if going all the way and around. The “vaqueros” can be of annoyance. They don’t respect the joggers and sometimes block trails with their animals. Some have morals others are straight inconsiderate fools. The trails are great, great scenery, natural sounds, some awesome birds. There’s homeless junk around tho.
Good walk nice streams and hike but theres some homeless people living down there in between a bunch of trees 😐
And its dirty in some areas
The views are great and there’s some streams and the damn… The walk is nice and it’s dog friendly. There’s some bathrooms but aldo porta potties thru out. The playground is nice and also tons of picnic tables everywhere
