    Beautiful park to take a walk at. Have a nice picnic and play with the kids. Currently there is COVID-19 testing going on at the site. There is a great hiking trail.

    Plaza de la Raza at Lincoln Park consistently holds wonderful art events for all! . Dia de los Muertos is always a wonderful, heartfelt experience here! Besides the entertainment, there are vendors, both food and artisan to explore as well as arts & crafts events. I look forward to it yearly!

    It was a nice day to visit a park we hadn't been here. Lots of cars. Didn't realize how big the park was. Very well shaded. We are from Dallas, so we were only able to be here just here for a few hours as the site seeing continued

    There is no dog park. Maybe a park to walk a dog, but no area where i would let my dog off the peash. Large homeless population. Trash and broken glass on the walking trail.

    This park is fantastic. If your looking for a lot of space and great park features, go to Lincoln. The bird droppings are a bit much but that is expected of a lake side parks. Small trails to walk give you a great sense of privacy, while the main park is so large you can always find a spot to set up away from other's! Still need to look into fishing regs here but even if you can't fish, I'd suggest visiting.

  • 5/5 Danny E. 4 years ago on Google
    I think they manage this park as best they can. Usually clean and very well kept. Still a great place to go and relax, feed the ducks, read a book, smoke a blunt...whatever your ❤️ Desires.... Great great park!!

    So glad I decided to come here. Haven't been to a park in a while. I was able to see a bunch of squirrels and geese and really enjoyed my time out. Definitely need to come back again.

    It's very misleading to call this a dog park. There's no fenced in area, and tons of geese for my dog to chomp on. I can't let her off the leash here. It's not safe. I'm sure it's a great park, but it's a terrible dog park.

    Really nice little village center and lake for having events. Too much loose goose pooh!! They gotta do something bout the birds. I saw beautiful white Aflac ducks and a turtle though. No fish. Good sized park but didn't notice Porta potties or restrooms anywhere.

  • 5/5 KIMBERLY 1 year ago on Google • 31 reviews
    I grew up coming to this park and seeing the train pass by.. We also used to fees the ducks and squirrels. I come here for breakfast to just relax and see all the different types of ducks and bird watching. Great for picnics and birthday parties!

  • 4/5 Jon 5 months ago on Google • 21 reviews
    Really enjoyed watching trains pass by the park. I wish they kept the bathrooms a little cleaner but hey it’s a public park in a major city. I like to take my partner and walk around the lake and watch the ducks and geese swim around. Be careful as the geese can get aggressive!

    The Park is large so there's plenty of space, plenty of tables to picnic, or to stroll, jog, throw a Frisbee, relax...it is Dog friendly, I'm not too sure of the Restroom facilities, but I think they're locked because of our homelessness situation in the area.

    For Kids: good variety of play equipment and plenty of bathrooms. Equipment has some wear and tear but looks to be in good condition. Everything is in a big sand pit. The ducks are a nice change up distraction for the kids.

    One of my favorite LA public pools! Very new and clean, it's also saltwater instead of chlorine which is so nice.

  • 5/5 Branden J. 1 year ago on Google
    Great park to visit lots to explore pool,skateboarding fishing 🎣

  • 5/5 Palito M. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a nice place to enjoy on a sunny bright day. I te s full of nature fun grounds for the kids and a place to sit back and enjoy the water fountain. What more can you ask for when you’re looking to take a nice quiet stroll near a pond full of ducks and geese. There is plenty of parking

    I loved the park! There's not too much to visit but the area is quite nice!

  • 5/5 Frisco C. 6 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    It's the type of place where you take your lady with you and enjoy a beautiful night in the pond on the swans.

  • 4/5 Gustavo R. 9 months ago on Google
    Ducks, geese, and I don't know what other birds, but come down and feed them. Two playgrounds for the kids. Some graffiti and homeless people near the restrooms but overall good experience.

  • 5/5 Carol M. 2 years ago on Google
    Speaking of Hazard Park. I was a child help my father help keep the park to since children and all families would be able instead of recreation of having more concrete. If you ever to think of Izzy, Isidore, Chiro

    Nice clean park. The Low Rider show is great

  • 5/5 Nayan G. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice a quite, early morning. Fishing was fun, a lot of catches, no keepers tho. Several paddle boarders, midmorning. But noon, Abita crowded. Over all nice area.

  • 5/5 Brian R. 2 years ago on Google

    Big big park

  • 4/5 Anika M. 7 years ago on Google
    Ignoring some of the shady characters, this is a great place to exercise & people watch. There is exercise equipment, paths & a recreation center. Someday the pool may reopen.

  • 3/5 Luis F. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 robert t. 5 years ago on Google
    Love this park

  • 5/5 Gabriel P. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a really pristine park. The pond is teeming with ducks and geese. It's big enough for a nice morning jog. There aren't any homeless camping about, at least on park grounds.

  • 2/5 Jerry L. 2 years ago on Google
    I was at Lincoln Park for a Covid test, provided by CORE - FLOWHEALTH... I preregistered and my wait in line was about 8-10mins max... the reason why 2 stars is I had to wait 7 days till I finally got the test results today. I called the telephone # on website... nothing at all! Then I emailed them on 3rd day and yeah, they replied, with record high amount of test samples, and then on the 5th day, emailed again and got the same generic email... day 7th, still no returned phone call!

    The park is beautiful, the lake is unique, water will always seeps up from the ground, it is a tributary of Los Angeles River. There is a skateboard park, professional baseball field, basketball and handball court where you can enjoy with family and friends. Tons of large trees, a place to walk with lots of oxygen. The park is clean, 3 toilet buildings, on Mission Rd, Valley Bl, and close to a parking lot. The park and restrooms are kept clean by super responsible crews. This Sunday and every other Sunday, there is an art and craft market 🤡🌞❣️ high quality merchandises for gifts to your family and friends. Come check them out ASAP (see in photos).

    I've always loved Lincoln Park since i was a child. I absolutely feel nostalgic feeding the ducks. It's a nice park to picnic in with the family.

  • 4/5 Ken M. 1 year ago on Google
    More ducks than you can shake a stick at. Yes, they're everywhere and it's wonderful. Navigating the man-made lake, basking in the shade along the shore and walking with grace, assurance and elegance. The park is spacious and never really crowded - so a wonderful place to get closer to nature at least for a little while.

  • 5/5 Jimmy SINCERELY D. 2 years ago on Google
    Grew up in the area, moved away in 1980 and moved back 6 years ago. Played there as a little kid with siblings. This park is full of history, from being a zoo to having an alligator farm, to film production of many known early television shows. Today, it has been surrounded and inhabited by many homeless encampments but still a beautiful park.

  • 3/5 Salvador R. 1 year ago on Google
    Trash cans over filled and only one in the area. Safe playground and many families using the park. Stores across the street so that is convenient. Skate park is clean and smooth. Lots of ducks wandering around.

  • 2/5 HairFreek B. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice facilities, plenty of sports, skating area, tennis courts, baseball fields, swimming pool, fishing, walking trails.. But too many bums in the park. I feel like my kids are in danger. The tables are all marked up. Empty beer cans litter the seating area. Homeless people camping out by the restrooms. The most terrifying part, my son picked up a used balloon off of a bench and put it in his mouth and began to blow it up. Who knows what was in those things? This place needs more police patrol.

  • 5/5 Scarlett C. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful Lincoln Park! My daughter loved watching the array of birds and waterfowl doing their thing. Sadly there is so much trash in the water, the grass...yikes 😣 I remember it being a lot cleaner the last time we visited.

    Good

  • 5/5 Yü W. 1 year ago on Google
    I wouldn't come to Lincoln Park just to visit, but if you are around the area, this is a pretty decent park for various activities. The lake, originally named East Lake, is beautiful, calm, with a cute view. Around the lake are several athletic and recreational facilities including a big outdoor pool, a skate park, tennis courts and playgrounds. Even though the park isn't huge, there are three restroom structures. Overall the park is a great place to spend a quality time in.
