Pinecrest Park

Very nice, cute little park, well maintained. I have been here quite a few times and plan to return again. Nice place to walk dogs.

My daughter and I were invited to a kid’s birthday party here last year. This is a nice, spacious park located in Mission Viejo off of Santa Margarita Parkway. It has a large open field for many types of sports activities including a cute playground on one end for younger children.
One big frustration parents quickly discovered were that there were no bathrooms available at this park. A little surprising with the large play area for the children. Fortunately we were here for only a few hours, so there didn’t seem to be any accidents among the many children attending the party.
We also noticed that a few of the children (including my daughter) were getting these nasty rope burns on the middle of their lower backs from one of the playground equipment. Possibly from the slide? So until the equipment is upgraded or replaced, I would be very cautious on this playground.

This park is pretty nice. I love it mainly because it shaded by many trees. Which I love because I HATE the sun and heat. We’re getting closer to summer so this will be one of the parks we’ll be spending most of our time at.

Took Vance here this morning. Awesome park! It’s big and has about 3 – 4 little play sets. There is an open field my active BOY to run free on. And the great thing is that it is so close to home. Just a 2 minute drive! I’ll definitely be taking him back to play again.

Nice park. No bathroom. I saw some toilet paper in the bushes. Funny

Beautiful and useful park — nice children’s playground, big grass area for soccer games, street parking, trails for hiking and wilderness area, shade trees, dog friendly (leash required).
Only negative is NO BATHROOM! AAAHHHHH! Maybe that is what the wilderness area is for?

This is a small park tucked away in Mission Viejo, close to Trabuco Canyon. They have a couple playgounds and a huge field, but the main appeal is the walking trail, which travels through an undeveloped area with dirt roads and shady trees. It’s a great place to take a curious dog on a walk, so that they can chase after lizards or smell all the smells. The trail is really short, only about 1 mile, so it’s an easy little walk to do in a short amount of time.
