Sunland Park

This park is super close to my house I just wish it didn’t have a homeless and druggy/​transient problem. You don’t really want to take your kids here. It’s a damn shame because you can see that the park has potential. Hopefully Sunland park can one day turn around.

It would be such a nice park if all the homeless people and bums weren’t here. I don’t know why this park attracts so many of them! It sucks because this park has 2 different playgrounds, basketball, tennis courts and a skate park! I do not feel safe when bringing my kids here. I wish they would regulate the park a little better so that families could feel safe.

Clean park. Lots of tall trees. Family friendly and pet friendly.
Quiet and not good for picnics because of some flying insects.
There are 2 play yards for children. Great!

Another location I checked out due to River’s Edge filming; and what a depressing park. It was full of homeless people, cursing about. A group of wannabe thugs trying to be all bad ass and all of the character of the park was removed when the river rock structures and walls were removed to expand the baseball field and such.
The parking is also horrid and nearly gave me an anxiety attack trying to parallel park an SUV in the only space for 2 blocks.
The park is wedged between Fenwick and Foothill and no parking anywhere but on the Fenwick side. The place is gated up like a penitentiary, with only two entrances.

Great summer play area. The kids playground is very well shaded and wonderful for those hot summer days when the thought of being outside is unbearable. The other playground is much more sunny but great for winter play. My girls love watching the squirrels that make the shade trees their home. Easy parking too.

I love this park. Everyone seems to think it is dirty and alll that but I can’t really tell when I go there. It’s a nice thing for sunland tujunga to have.
