This park is a true gem in Salinas! Originally designed for children who use wheelchairs, it’s thoughtfully built to be accessible and welcoming for everyone. The parks offers a wide variety of fun activities, making it a favorite spot for families- so it can get busy!Convenient parking available in the front, clean restrooms, water fountain, & picnic tables.

Stumbled across the gem in the heart of Salinas. Talk about a playground! Tatum’s Harden had something for children of all ages. We stayed an hour and didn’t see half of it! Our three year old fell in love with the plastic seated swings and the rocking horses. We stayed mainly in the ‘tot lot,’ and could’ve easily remained for hours. Things to climb things to swing, things to slide, things to spin, things to touch, things to explore, things, things, THINGS!

I highly recommend bringing your children here! New, clean, safe, accessable playground with plenty of varying activities and space. There are BBQs and picnic tables across the parking lot and the whole area is very well maintained.

Finding this park was such a gem. It was pretty empty and huge with great structures. It is made for those with all mobility ranges. My son had a blast. When we visit Salinas or near abouts, we will be coming back!
