Jack N. Sheldon Park

Great park. Very clean and spacious!! Tons of pickle ball and tennis courts. Open late. A hidden gem!

Like the very first reviewer said, this park is not in the best area. What is provided at the park is great and parking is easy (as long as there's no event), but there are strange people who roam the area and many people speed down the road. Not ideal to visit when it's getting late and would *highly* recommend sticking in groups. I was here yesterday around 4 PM just to hang around the neighborhood cats and was harassed by a man who later came back to get close to my car in an aggressive manner to throw some type of wad of tissue. Leave the scene immediately if somebody starts harassing you because they will return.

Jack N. Sheldon Park is located in the City of Sacramento, and is part of the "Southgate Recreation Park District ." I was brought here many many years ago by my late brother in-law who loved to play tennis. There must be at least 5 to 6 lighted tennis courts here plus bench seating for spectators to watch.The parks other amenities are, a lighted parking lot, a baseball diamond, soccer fields, picnic area with BBQ's, shaded structure, and of course a play area with slides and climbing structures for the kids. Restrooms are also available. Since the park is not situated in the best of area, I would recommend visiting only in day light hours ! Now let's hit some balls !!!!
