Reichmuth Park

Not a terribly large park if you are just looking for the standard amenities but what really stands out about this park is the disc golf. There is also a little skate park but not something I find myself using unless I want to seriously injure myselfFair warning, this was literally my second time disc golfing ever. Compared to the other ones I've mostly scene but not played this seemed to be on hard difficulty. I determined this on how often I found myself going into the trees and brush to retrieve my discs. Much cursing and expletives abound, but that was more on my failure and inability to properly throw a flat object.All kidding aside most of the course is in a wooded area but it very well maintained. While I call this a small park, it is small relative to a park like Land Park or Elk Grove Regional. It's actually quite large, but a decent portion of the park is the wooded area where the disc golf course is located. There is also a bathroom on site but like many park bathrooms, it's quite terrifying and best avoided.

Very beautiful forest like course challenging with lots of obstacles but very fun and feels amazing !

This park was a great find. I found it searching for skate parks, with tennis courts, and playgrounds for my family that has kid ages ranging from 2 years old to 14 years old. There is also a big grass area where my sister and I used our badminton rackets to toss A birdie back-and-forth. There was also a basketball court.Missing a star due to male teenagers without supervision harassing young girls but overall the park itself is a great park to bring the kids and get some exercise.

I really enjoy this park. I walk or run the trail weekly at least and while I can't say everything there is always and forever rainbows and unicorns, is McKinley either? No. Unfortunately that element can show up no matter how beautiful the surroundings. It goes without saying always be vigilant for yourself of surroundings. It doesn't make the amenities or the experience undesirable for me, but then again I didn't find the "objects" the other reviewer did. With that said, I haven't found any questionable object on the trail or at the park, I also haven't seen a transient or prevalent trash on the trail; maybe a napkin or two over time. The park itself is cute. There is also a baseball diamond and larger soccer field there too. Kids are usually at the playground from the surrounding areas. The tennis courts usually have at least one available too which is convenient. Paramedic fire station is right next door too, I figure it helps odds if ever an emergency.

Okay, not much has changed from my last review as far as atmosphere. The drug dealers and homeless still linger at this park which is soooo unfortunate! I did give two more stars on this update because the newly built playground is significantly better than the last. Completely new play structure with a fire fighter theme. There are many components to the new playground, all with different function and purpose. Also there is a dual swing (see pic) that I found interesting and made me L.O.L. Though at the same time I thought it was an awesome addition to the swing sets. Although this park as a whole isn't my favorite for safety reasons, Reichmuth does has everything the surrounding neighborhood needs. From a skate park to baseball and open fields, the new playground just adds more value.

Nice shady areas, small bbq area. Full sized basketball court, frisbee baskets, soccer field and playground. Nice bonus - skate ramps! Parking lot is adequate and accessible.Lots of families and kids. Not too many vagrants but lots of weed smokers. This is a park!!!! Little kids are around. Take that somewhere else.

Taking a stroll with our dog around our new neighborhood, I happened to run into new friends and neighbors. I asked if there was a creek nearby and was directed to the Reichmuth Park Nature Area.Despite the official Reichmuth Park address, which will lead you to the conventional grassy area of the park, the best way to access the Nature Area is from Silver Lake Drive off of South Land Park Drive. As I walked into the canopy by Sump Station 65 on Silver Lake Drive, my trepidation turned to delight as I discovered a wild wetland forest right in the middle of our urban neighborhood!There is a beautiful trail which meanders and eventually leads to the grassy areas of Reichmuth Park. Along the way, we spotted wild blackberries, grapevines, cat tails, and even a fig tree nestled among the native oaks. We heard crickets, frogs and saw a shallow pool full of tadpoles. Even though we didn't see any, there are reportedly bunnies. And birds. Lots of birds. Apparently, per the Sacramento Audobon Society Reichmuth Park is home to many uncommon birds.One hundred years ago, Reichmuth Park used to be an area called Munger Lake. It was later renamed Reichmuth Park after it was owned by Joseph and Amelia Reichmuth, who also operated a 358-acre dairy.If you want to melt away the stress of urban living, I suggest a walk with your dog here. For safety reasons, I suggest you don't go alone.My kids really loved the "secret" nature walk. Except for the wet shoe in the boggy water incident, but the shoe was washed and no harm done. This morning, my six year old son stated that he's pretty sure Master Yoda lives there but only comes out at night when it's foggy. Only the birds and the bunnies may know for sure.

So much shade and beautiful trees. Awesome new playground structure. Clean and appealing baseball field. Lots of grassy area to enjoy a walk.

It's a good place to play disc golf. But the bird watchers tend to ruin the experience. They seem to heckle people that walk on the common space. A pair of older men dressed in bird suit's walked over to me on as I was teeing off on tee pad two. Confused I asked them what they were looking for. They scoffed at me and said that there's a well endowed worm eating warble in the trail and my existence was nuisance. I was stunned by the remark. They then insisted that I'm not worthy to breath the same air as them, and that I'm not welcome at the park. Another time a man dressed as worm proceeded to wiggle around on the muck off the trail... he proceeded to warble about.. shouting out "warble", seeming to lure in a well endowed warbler. I though this park was inclusive...

Big park, nice disc golf course with some heavily wooded holes. Enjoyed our time here
