Prado Regional Park

They are still remodeling this park but most amenities are available. It's a beautiful park in the middle of a busy city. Great place to bring the kids to ride bikes and do some fishing. Rowing non inflatable and electric boats are allowed. Quiet and peaceful park gives the feel of being far from home when you're not.

There is construction as of December 2025. However, the park is still beautiful! Disc golf course is very well taken care of. Fee for entrance to disc golf is $15

Prado Park is located off the 71 FWY off Euclid. I believe their new prices as of May 2025 are now $10/vehicle on weekdays and $15/vehicle on weekends & special events. $3/pedestrian, $1/dog must be on a 6' leash at all times. They list all fees on their website FYI. The park is huge! It offers picnic facilities, biking, kid's playground, hiking, fishing, camping, trails, and more. It has a meeting room that seats up to 80 people and can be used for parties, or simply gatherings. I also noticed additional offerings such as an equestrian center, disc golf course, archery and shooting ranges. Don't expect to see pretty, colorful flowers but the park is nice and clean. Some areas will have gopher holes, watch your step. Staff do their best to keep the park enjoyable, which it is. Overall, it's always a great, relaxing time at Prado Park.

Great spot for outdoor fun and family time! I recently visited this Park and had a wonderful experience! This park is perfect for a fun day out with family or friends. You can enjoy BBQ, picnics, camping, playgrounds for kids and even water activities like paddle boating, fishing and a beautiful lake view. Parking is $15 per vehicle

My grandson wanted to go fishing, so my wife planned a quick trip to Prado Regional Park. We got there early on a Saturday morning. The line was about 10-15 cars already. Check in was fine, even though it was Labor Day weekend. The park was ok. There were people camping there. It reminded me of Lake Skinner. The grass was dry and brown, there was gopher holes or holes of some other creatures. We parked and unloaded our stuff. We walked to look for a spot. Since we were early, there was plenty of room. The spot we picked was covered with ants, close to the water. We stayed, because it was probably covered in ants everywhere near the water. We found a small spot with brush blocking the water on each side of us. I didn’t get a bite all the time I fished. I switched the type of bait, about 4 times, but nothing worked. I ended up catching a duck, because Daffy decided to eat my power bait. I reeled in my line carefully and used a towel to cover Daffy’s eyes. I was able to remove the hook from Daffy’s mouth. The best part was watching my grandson learn to cast and reel in the bait. I wish there would have been one fish caught, so he could have felt the fight. We had some finger foods and drinks. The restrooms were surprisingly clean. There was a picnic site by our location, so it was easy to wash our hands. So… No fish caught. Dry landscape. Lake side covered in ants. Charges $40 to enter, $20 for me, $20 for the car. Weird. Daffy ate my bait. I missed some college football for this. Fishing was license free today. It is one of two days, that a license was not needed, although I do have an annual fresh and salt water license. I would have rather been shore fishing at Del Mar Beach in Oceanside. Yea, there is a Del Mar Beach in Oceanside, but on Camp Pendleton. This place is only ok. I wouldn’t recommend this park for serious fishing. This is why they call the sport “fishing” and not CATCHING.
