Nice little park located in the hills between San Marcos and Carlsbad. Usually fairly quiet during the week. There is also a walking trail located near the park. Numerous sports fields with plenty of space. Very clean and the surrounding area is very nice. There a little Main St. feel with several restaurants, different small businesses, and unique stores.

Great Park with trails and you can even take a trail all the way to the top of Double Peak Park summit about a 5k hike starting at the dog park going from 600ft to 1500ft elevation hike or run. Which is also the route for the most challenging 10k race in San Diego, the Double Peak Challenge 10k race at the end of September.

Beautiful park and so well maintained. The trails up to the top are very steep and make for a challenging run/hike.

Great park with soccer fields, picnic areas and a playground for little kids. Plenty of parking and always super clean.

Spacious. Very well taken care of. Lots of hills. Great for a workout or fun with family.
