    This is a big park mostly meant for baseball but they do have an indoor pool, basketball court and 4 baseball field, a soccer field, a basketball court, a handball court, tennis courts and a football field. What it looks like, it should be good for kids and to plan some of your parties.

    Came here for flag football game. Artificial turf. Plenty of seating and field is nice! Main entrance from park to the field blocked (under construction) had to drive into Expo Bl. On first turn off LaBrea.

    Came to this park on a recommendation for some dog training. Used the original bathrooms facing the field. I appreciate that there was toilet paper in the girls' bathroom(single stall) My husband walked into the men's, and he said he was disgusting. Then afterward, I was informed that there were bathrooms in the new building and such a difference in cleanliness.

    Everything has been improved except the field, the scoreboard and the press box. The field is at least 17 years old with patches of new turf sewn in between the hash marks where there is the heaviest traffic. The Nevco scoreboard has not been repaired in at least four years and the opaque windows in the press box need to be replaced with clear ones. There were many Stadium lights out making it dimly lit on the field. It is due for new LED lighting. The sound system sounds like AM radio when it works. And the back parking lot needs to be repaved as smooth as the front parking lot right next to the gymnasium.

    So nice tennis courts, and lots of activities are available. Big parking lot is always shotage, but always street parking is available. One issue is homeless tents at the corner, mostly you won't encounter them, which is not big issue.

    Bleachers were really dirty, and very rickety. Felt unstable walking up the bottom stairs. Bathroom was insanely nasty. So many potholes in the parking lot.

    Nice large park. Indoor new gym and pool. 12 tennis courts open till 10p football and soccer fields. 2 outdoor basketball courts. A skate park. A preschool and small public play yard. Was a lot of homeless people but not as much right next to a high school.

    Good place to visit and have some fun at the park.

  • 5/5 Antoinette G. 1 year ago on Google
    This place was great based on my one experience.

  • 5/5 Nick K. 1 year ago on Google
    Free EV charging, indoor community center with lots of resources, outdoor area not over policed. Feels relatively safe even at night due to somebody always being around because of the free EV charging.

    Looks nice let's see if attitude's have changed

  • 5/5 Calvin P. 1 year ago on Google
    Rancho look amazing! I used to play basketball there everyday for years in the 80's & 90's. Looks great. Makes me feel good!

  • 5/5 Sandra H. 11 months ago on Google
    Beautiful Park on so many levels and very clean in other areas. I felt completely safe there, too!

  • 4/5 Doran R. 9 months ago on Google
    Great new facility. Pool and sports gym are incredibly nice. And the offered programs are great. The staff rocks as well.

  • 5/5 Golden Syndicate Productions, L. 3 months ago on Google • 26 reviews New
    A hidden gem. The politics of it being in a brown community is the reason why you don't hear of its mention. But the facilities are rennovated and clean.

  • 3/5 Renie F. 1 year ago on Google
    It's fairly noisy, but it's an easy track.

  • 3/5 john c. 2 years ago on Google
    This facility on Obama Ave. is pretty shabby looking at present (early January 2022) as construction of new indoor aquatics, etc is getting close to completion. I am employed by a contractor involved with the project and so my purpose there was work related. It may well deserve a higher or lower rating by people who actually get to use, possibly enjoy the amenities.

  • 3/5 Elliott P. 1 year ago on Google
    There’s a lot of construction, and the road into the lot is a mess of pot holes and occasional encampments. But the track itself is nice enough and not too heavily subscribed.

  • 5/5 jovan H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for sports, training and swimming. Nice friendly staff. Definitely kid friendly and safe. Park director Phil is a great guy and easily accessible

  • 4/5 Robert V. 1 year ago on Google

  • 3/5 This Is W. 1 year ago on Google
    Looks like they did all that work for a pool and a basketball court. Whatever happened to activities and programs for the kids. Ballet, Carams, Dance classes, just games, summer camps ??? Kids Need Programs not basketball courts.

  • 4/5 Alicia R. 1 year ago on Google
    Large sports complex, tons of open space. Nice gymnasium. Check the website for kids/sports programs. Also EV charging station are top notch (fast) #chargepoint stations🙂

  • 3/5 Bambi R. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a busy park. Parking hard to find. But not impossible. For the large crowd that was there, everybody was having a good time. The street tacos were fantastic!! Bthrm dirty - it's a busy ball park expected it. Those metal benches don't do my spine n hips Any!! favors. Loved being with my fam nd watch my nephew play

  • 5/5 Hugo A. 2 years ago on Google
    I come here for tennis every now and then and have yet to have a bad time. The courts are in some rough shape, but the improvements are gorgeous.

  • 4/5 Sapphyre Media, L. 2 years ago on Google
    You have to know someone who's been there to help you navigate how to get in! But once you get to the hidden parking lot everything else about it is nice.

  • 4/5 Ralph L. 2 years ago on Google
    Indulgence in the pleasure of outdoorsy skate culture, breed within lanes deep beneath the stretch, a length that conjures waves to form, A breached beach, squeezing adrenaline, meandering through crevices of sought out energy reserves, that serve purpose. That serves growth. Skateboarding.
