Great little park with wide-open spaces for soccer. They also have a tennis court, picnic area and two play structures with swings separating each one. Bathrooms are clean. Hand wash station provided. Boat trailer and tow vehicle parking located here as well.

Nice park, there is a bicycle trail. If you want to do some walking, it's about 2.5 mile one way 5 round trip

We had a great time setting up a little picnic for my birthday at Garcia Bend Park. It was a week night and the weather was perfect after having triple digit temps for multiple days. There was a cool breeze and being near the Sacramento River helped as well. We spent two hours there and it was peaceful. The downside is parking as the parking lot is big and we had a few heavy items to haul from the parking lot to the grass area. All in all, we feasted and enjoyed each other's company. It's a large park, close to home and it's conveniently located next to the river and trail.

Beautiful place to visit but the park needs to be cleaned like pressure wash or updated . There’s graffiti on some of the play structure . The swings for toddlers are filthy and outdated .

I love this bike trail, it offers charming views of Sacramento River and if you love walking your dog the perfect trail for four legged companions. If you want more off road trails to walk up to levee, and make a right. I have yet to explore that side of trail, but it's all rocky path. Very safe of your women going for a jog and great atmosphere for family walks. There is a huge soccer field, decent playground, tennis court's and your surrounded near tree's. Can't wait to go back.
