Very nice,good people clean lots of trees and area for my doggies to explore.relaxing and comforting knowing my fur babies would not leave the park.When I'm in idylwild this is my go to place for getting the kids the exercise they need to be able to run around without a leash.

It's always clean. Hardly ever crowded during the day. Easy to find parking even when games are going on.

Definitely worth a visit. We went near closing time during one of the heat waves (8/6/23), so we had to cut our visit short. When the weather cools down, we look forward to checking out the trails, but on this visit, we parked & walked up the paved path to the top of the hill. Beautiful views of the lake & new developing parts of Winchester. Interesting to see how this whole valley will look in 20 years. Bottom line: free to visit, but closes around 4:00pm.. maybe hours change during different seasons, but not sure. Check it out if you're looking for outdoor things to do.

Make sure you stop by this spot in Idyllwild on your trip! Absolutely beautiful view of the mountain and trees. It's nice to have a picnic and just relax before taking the long drive home. Several trails nearby I'd love to try in the spring. Love listening to the birds and seeing the squirrels. Saw a deer too on our little hike!!! Parking isn't very good, not a lot of spots and have to pay. Busy gorgeous spot.
