Shasta Community Park

We love going to Shasta Community park for family walks AND to meet up with fellow Pokemon Go players. It's always nice during big game events to go to the park and find a little community to belong to. The little water fountains seem like a great way to cool off little ones during summer too so we will definitely be returning often.

Shasta Park is a great outdoor activity for the kids and families. It's right by the North Laguna Valley Hi Library across from CRC. There are two play areas for kids. Two gazebo areas for gatherings that can be reserved through the city of Sacramento. They do have bathrooms which is a plus. It has a water play area, basketball court, softball field, and so much more. I love the shade and seating available. It's a beautiful park.

Neighborhood mid-sized park next to a Sacramento branch library. Common amenities include athletic fields, covered gazebos, kids play area and concrete surfaced trails. Some mature shade trees.I generally come here in the coolness of early morning for some exercise. Occasionally, I encounter the aggressive dog leashed to the less intelligent owner/parent. I give that a wide space, but I carry a weapon prepared for the worst encounter. Nobody should have to face being bit or mauled by an untrained dog with an entitled idiot human. Protect yourself.

It's a relatively big park. There are some open fields for playing soccer or other games. There is a walking path that goes around the park. There is an aesthetic part of the park at the corner. It has an isle of palm trees leading up to a pretty flower set up. It looks like a place to hold a small wedding. The playground has a ship theme. There are exercise structures around the park. There is a seating area in the shade for parties to eat and gather. It's right by the library. The parking lot has enough parking.

Best park for Pokémon go! Many gyms within short walking distance of you need to do spontaneous raid within an hour window. There is a crew there every time we went there!They also have a library and water play thing for kids. Excellent location for both adults and families!

When i first moved in this area this was my to go to park... its not too big not to small and it has a skate park what more can you ask for? This area also has basketball hoops and a tennis area... awesome right? I can see myself bringing my babies here.. looking forward to some future family playtime highly recommended

This park is okay. As mentioned there are two different areas for kids to play. One section is for toddlers, and the other is geared more towards older kids. The set up is great, as it is right next to the local library. There are many downsides to this park as well. The play structure areas are very run down, and in serious need of repairs. There are also many people who have parties here, and leave the place trashed afterwards. Some are good about disposing of garbage, but they are few and far between. There are also a lot of unsupervised kids running around, and I've seen many arguments break out as a result. Bottom line is if you bring your kids here WATCH them, and if your having a party CLEAN up afterwards. If people did these simple things the park would be a much more enjoyable place for everyone.Cheers!

We like and enjoy this park. It's right next to the valley hi North Laguna library and makes it a convenient way to take kids to both in one trip. There's two areas, one seems to be meant for younger kids, toddlers, and the other side more for older kids. The theme seems to be classic adventure books and there's several climbing sculptures designed to reflect the theme. Both areas have shaded covers that helps when the sun is strong. I'm not sure if there's bathrooms here but when the library is open there's bathrooms available there. Overall, it's a good park and we like coming here. Do of course be aware and watch your kids as dangerous people maybe present here as at any other park.

This park is as good as it gets!!! Its like a mini water park but FREE with so much more to offer!Shasta Park has a couple playgrounds, baseball field, tennis/basketball courts, water mist stations, skate boarding area and a huge field to play whatever your heart desires! They have 2 huge playgrounds... one geared for the toddlers and the other for the bigger kids. Each with its appropriate age swings. I don't mind chasing my nephews around this park because my shoes are not being planted on dirt, sand or bark.. its like I'm stepping on what feels like rubber and soft sand paper (if that makes any sense). In the middle of these playgrounds is where you will find the awesome water mist area for kids and adults to run around and play in. Its so refreshing to have that cool mist greet your face on a hot sunny day. I will admit to running through these fully clothed because I was so desperate to cool off.. and it did just that. It cooled me off. =)Just found out from their website that the gazebo that is off to the far corner is meant for weddings! So this park really does have it all!I can't wait for the trees to grow.. this park needs more shade... The only shade you'll find is under the main gazebos by the playground and those are usually reserved on the weekends.

I actually really like this park! I think the area could cause some hesitation for parents, but the actual park itself is quite nice. Located off of Bruceville, it has two parking lots--one that is farther away from the actual park and another lot that is shared with the library on site. I came here on a whim because of Pokemon Go, but got the opportunity to actually walk around and look at the playground, the skate park, and the wide open field that allows kids to run around. I found the actual playground site to be very nice. It feels fairly new, but my information on this is minimal. The actual infrastructure is still nicely kept and the different swing sets, interactiveness and small water area are all colorful and engaging. The downside to how nice this park is unfortunately is that the parking lots are quite small for such a lovely park. This is definitely a place I imagine gets very busy during the summer time when the sun is shining and the kids want to go outside and play. During winter it's nowhere near as packed, which makes it convenient for me, but I can see this becoming a very easy annoyance. If you have kids this is certainly a place to visit. The EG/Sacramento area has quite a few parks, but even though it's size is small I found the play area to be much more engaging and interactive for the little ones. EG Park is huge and has a great area for kids to run around, but there's no play structure like the Shasta Park. Give it a visit! Your kids or you may fall in love with it!
