Mesa Grande Park is located in South Sacramento and is part of the City of Sacramento Department of Park and Recreation Division. Local residence can find an adventure play area for the older children as well a tot play area for children under the age of 5. The picnic areas in the park are separated into three different areas. There are no shaded structures (gazebo) in the park. There are plenty of mature trees providing ample shade around the picnic areas.Some of the other amenities that this park has to offer are a full basketball court, a soccer field, a volleyball area, and a 0.33 mile walking/jogging trail with stretching stations along the way. As always be safe and thanks for reading !.

(If you don't need feel like reading such a long review, read the last sentence for overall review) I really grew to love this park ever since I moved to the Mesa Grande neighborhood 6 years ago. I enjoy it for a couple of reasons. First off, I love how accessible it is for me; I can bike there in less than 5 minutes or walk in about 10 minutes. I love how I can take my dogs for a quick walk without having them get tired before they actually reach the park. Plus it has a couple of trashcans located throughout the park making it easier to have a picnic and throw the trash away or not having to carry my dog's business around, I can easily dispose of it. I love how the park has two sort of seperate playgrounds, one seems to be for older children and the other for smaller children. Plus it has a small seating area between the two playgrounds so parents can sit and watch their kids play. In additiin, there is a few tables, grills and water fountains availble for a comfortable visit to the park. There is also benches located around the walking/jogging path and there is two exercise areas located on the park and a field that is often occupied by a few soccer players. Although the park is very acomadating, there is two reasons why I don't give it 5 stars. One it is very small which is reasonable for it being a park for a rather small neighborhood. In addition, although pets are allowed it doesn't have one of those water fountains that has a lower level to give your pets some water. Which is a bit annoying for when you are staying at the park for longer periods and your pet wants/needs water. I hear we may be getting one soon so I will gladly change my review to 5 stars. I wish I could rate it 4 1/2 for now. Overall, great park for family and pets and easily accessible.

Beautiful big open area for kids to play, or for walking dogs, or walking around the perimeter for exercise. There seems to be 1 swing for special needs kids, and thats nice. It's nice that there's two very simple swings side by side off to the side a bit, if older children want to swing on the swings. I took a star off for not having a bathroom. Yes, it's close enough to most of our homes we can just go home, if need be, but it'd be nice if there was an option to go there.
