Boulder Creek Park

Poops has not been picked by owners. Always have poops there every time we went!

I live near this park. Its long and spacious. Its great for running around, and has a gas station and a subway near by for a refreshments. It has everything you need from a grill, dog park, basketball courts, fields of grass, playground, and restrooms. I kind of wished the lights stays up at night for the courts and the dog cage because I go out at night. Also a tennis court would be nice. 4/5 starts out of my preference.

Pros: It's a clean park with a large covered playground. Had a nice trail to walk laps around, lots of grass (that's sometimes green!) and two dog park enclosures that never too crowded and kept clean. It offers nice wide open spaces to play ball or settle down for a picnic. Cons: The grass is often dry, and the playground is the only shade offered. There are no trees or other methods of covering. Not many benches for seating, and the few that they have are spread out. Near to large power lines, and has heavy foot traffic at night sometimes. My Personal Feelings: It's not a bad park, being that it is the only one close to this area within walking distance its.....acceptable? It's good for a walk/run, the dog(s), an early morning or non-summer picnic, as well as maybe a game of catch. However, bring your own chairs and bring your own shade. Personally, I feel that they should add some sort of gazebo or canopies to offer more shade for visitors. Its Nevada, it's far to hot for children, pets, and elderly to have to walk to the far end of the park just to cool down. The place is just not the sort of park where you are there to relax and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors. It's a get your exercise handled close to the house during Covid sort of park.

Great park, but fire department called twice on different occasions

Wasn't what I had expected, as I hadn't really looked at a map of it, but it's a nice park. It's very long and narrow, with a long, grassy area that's just wide enough for a couple groups to play competitive sports. Opposite the grassy area, there's a line of variously sized dog parks--although none was especially large, a basketball court, a restroom, and a small children's playground with both a small 2-5yro playset and a 5-12yro playset, concrete picnic tables, and shading. (But don't expect the picnic tables or playsets to be in much shade at 3pm in September). The designers really tried to pack in a little of everything to meet everyone's basic interests/desires, and it seemed pretty new and well cared for The play area isn't anywhere near parking, and there's actually only a parking lot on one side, which surprised me as I would have expected there to be two--one on each side--with how long it was. So, if you're stopping by just cuz you heard there was or saw the sign for a park/playground and want to let the kids play on a playset for a few minutes before you continue on your errands, it's gonna take them that few minutes just to walk to the play area, and then you'd hardly be able to see them from the parking lot once they got there. Otherwise, it's a good park, with plenty of space for running around in the grass and playing sports. Update: There actually is one small row of parking on the opposite side of the park that I just couldn't tell was parking from my view from the playground. It's still a bit of a walk from it to the playground, but it's less of a walk than from the main parking lot!
