Great park with nice scenery. Water pad is very fun! My neighbors were very noisy, which was AFTER 10 pm to 1 am.

Husband loves fishing, so we went to check it out this weekend. Didn't really do our research so didn't go prepared. Price was affordable. The staff was very friendly and informative. Loved that it had so many nearby activities for the family. Spent a few hours here just enjoying the scenary. Kids enjoyed the playgrounds and walkways to skate around the park. We'll definitely be going back to enjoy the camping/splash pad/ golf course.

This a beautiful city park with plenty of green grass and level paved sites in the Cottonwood campground. We were here for RV repairs at a local manufacturer and needed a safe place to stay for a couple of nights. We didnt need the shower facilities so cannot comment on their condition but I imagine they were good since everything else we saw was in immaculate condition. The employees we dealt with were friendly. Highly recommend but be sure to book in advance if you are thinking about coming here on a weekend or holiday.

Nice little hidden gem in Rancho Jurupa. Paved roads and the RV sites have grass and trees. There is a splash pad and playgrounds for the kids. There is also fishing, a mini golf course, and a small convenience store.

We rented a cabin and it wasn't what we expected. The queen bed was a twin twin with a trundle, the blinds were missing slats and broken, floors were very dirty to the point that we had to wear shoes or else our feet turned black. The park is beautiful and had so many wonderful options for kids! Besides one interaction with one park ranger who was very rude, everyone else was so friendly!
