Citrus Community Park

Citrus park is one of my favorite parks in corona. I’ve been here on several occasions. For awhile, my best friends and I would come here every year for the fourth of July. That tradition stopped a couple years back, but it was a lot of fun while it lasted. We would bring blankets and chairs and food/​drinks and watch the fireworks here instead of going to Santana park with all of the crowds. The view of the fireworks was not even close to the view at Santana park, but jot having to deal with the crowds and parking situation before and after was nice! Aside from that, there’s a cool little playground and water park for the kids. The water park is even fun for adults lol anyway this is a great park, its always clean and seems to have less weirdos and drunks lurking about than other parks.

Love this park! All of the other splash parks near us have been closed during this time of drought so we drive a little further to get here but it’s so worth it! The kids have a blast there.

We have been taking a «tour» of the Corona parks, each day visiting a different one. This is one of our favorite parks so far. There is a great playground area that includes a splash pad. My daughter is 2 so we stayed with the 2 – 5 year old section of the playground equipment. She had a great time and the features were perfect for her age. There was a section for 5 – 12 year olds that was separate. My daughter also likes to run on the grass and there was a lot of that for her to use! The only feature I don’t like is the wood chips in the playground. My daughter and I spend most of the time in sandals. Thankfully she wanted to wear tennis shoes when we went, I was not so lucky.

Love this park! My kids have a blast here! I just wish there was more shade. Bring an umbrella or easy up, and pack a picnic because your kids could spend hours here

We love this place! It’s great for the kids during hot summer months. Bring a blanket & enjoy a picnic under the shady trees.

Great park. They have a good amount of swings. I like how they have a big okay set and a small one. This park also has a splash pad. It is currently turned off but should be coming on soon considering how hot the weather is.

Part of the Corona Parks and Recreation Department’s growing empire, this is yet another great place for kids and families. While this park has only been open about 5 years at the time of this writing, and the trees have yet to provide any significant shade, the park is maturing nicely and has plenty of attractions.
Plenty of room for lots of active little ones, colorful, interactive, and also safe and well maintained, the two main attractions are a nicely sized water play area with squirting fountains coming up from the ground, sculptures, water guns that won’t hurt a fly, and a playground that includes big stuff to climb and slide, and swings, surrounded by soft rubberized material so the kids can be owweee free.
There is a decent bathroom facility not too far, actually closer to the parking lot than the play areas. I love the permanently shaded area, where you can sit at picnic tables made of cement, and there are also park benches that dot the playground areas. The parking lot is large, so room for everyone.
There is lots of green, green grass and rolling hills that reminded me how much I loved to tumble down the hills in my childhood. I won’t mention how many years ago that was!
Lots of people were there the day we visited. Grandparents sitting in their beach chairs under umbrellas. Mothers sitting on the benches that look like orange crates with old Corona citrus labels affixed, sipping their iced cold drinks and bringing out a picnic lunch for the kiddies. Everyone was having a great time. And the location is in a nice area of Corona, safe and welcoming.
The park is huge. Another section of the park appears to be a large field for playing sports and is separated from the children’s play area. It also has its own parking area so you will not have to compete for parking on the days there may be games going on.
With our wonderful weather, I can see this as a very popular spot to bring the kids.

Come on Corona! This park is a mess!!! Just went there this morning and spent most of 30 mins picking up trash left all over the park. seriously the worst ive seen. Not sure what can be done about it, but something needs to happen. Its like people go and have a party and just let the kids run around and leave there food, candy, trash all over. there are trash cans all around! I even found a diaper and a slice of pizza NEXT TO THE TRASH CAN!!! really??? the splash pad area was COVERED in broken water balloons. This park is gross and at this point in time id rather drive further and find a cleaner park that i don’t have to worry about my one year old picking up a half eaten sucker covered in wood chips and ants.
