Great playground. I agree with another reviewer who said that Thousand Oaks has great parks. I fully agree, there are so many great parks in TO. This one has absolutely amazing playground equipment.

This park has recently been renewed. My son loves it because he can swing, use the slides and also slide down the hill on cardboard! It is a lot of fun!

A nice park with ample parking. Not too windy and not many people around at 2:00 AM on a weekday.

Love this park. My son plays basketball inside the gym when not in use and outside. I take a walk around the whole park with my dog. It's great to play pickle ball as well. Good amount of parking. The ant hill is a hit with my young daughter. Playground was recently remodeled a year ago, nice and colorful. Good amount of swings.

Great playground, good for all ages. The ant hill is a lot of fun, remember a piece of cardboard to slide on.

Nice large area but the turf has seen better days. Doesn't seem like the turf lasted very well. Curious if they bought and inferior product because the fibers sure are coming loose.
