It's a beautiful park with lots of things to do. For us, it's our pickleball court of choice in Palm Springs and area. It can get really busy here especially on weekends. Good players from beginners to advanced. Very welcoming.

Beautiful park, plenty of free parking, playground for kids with spongy flooring so children do not fall and scratch end up with little band-aids, bump their little heads and injure themselves. Full size Basketball court, lovely little trails around the park for walking, jogging or running and picnic benches along with BBQ grills for a great family and friends events or gatherings. Huge park, beautiful grass to lay down on a blanket and read a book and just relax. I'm pretty sure this is a park that anybody and everybody can and will enjoy just as much as I have.

Beautiful park! Love the fountain with ducks, herons, turtles, and pidgins. Plenty of baseball and other sport fields. Lots of shaded benches. Perfect for hosting an event or having a picnic. Nice playgrounds for children. Plenty of well kept restrooms. Lots of parking. Honestly one of the best parks I’ve been to. Definitely recommend!

My wife and I enjoy the Civic part for all the things that it offers. Even watching a concert at night. You can walk around the park as you’re going to play a game of Pickleball or tennis. Palm Desert has done a fantastic job with our park. The crown Jewel, the Civic Park.
