One of my favorite parks and wow what a blessing to live so close to it! It's HUGE!! You can't easily get bored coming here because there's so many different routes to take! Been coming here for years now. There are at least 3 playgrounds here, clean bathrooms, lots of nature and different types of beautiful bird and wildlife here to enjoy. There's even a big baseball field, basketball courts and other recreational activities.

I love jogging here and bringing my family to this park. For the most part, I feel safe, and the other joggers I pass are friendly and polite. I only came across one visitor wearing racist pins, hats, and clothing. But he kept to himself. Near the entrance, a mentally ill homeless person yelled obscenities at me. But, baby geese, ducks, herons, and egrets!

Mon-Fri parking cost $3 and $5 on Sat and Sun. This park is huge. From what I saw, they had a baseball field, a kids playground and a lake for fishing. Unfortunately it was a cold day so I didn't venture the park, except for what was close. I would recommend this for kids, adults, and the elderly.

The park was serene and beautiful. Loved the ducks in the pond. Just be careful while walking not to step on bird mess there is a lot. Otherwise the park is great. The walking trail is nice.

Does your park have catfish

Pr3tti3 Luv3 | Aug 22, 2020
Karma Erica | Aug 22, 2020

Yes, there is Catfish. However, if you're fishing to cook and eat them, I dont suggest you fish there. Fishing for fun just to catch and release would be the place for this. Fishing for dining would be a Fishing Park such as Anaheim/Santa Ana Lakes, not a heavy polluted muddy Park. Good Luck

If you are younger than 16 yrs old do you still need a fishing license or you just can't fish at all?? Is there fishing allowed?

Julie Cortes Reyes | Aug 23, 2019
Brian Maurer MTB | Aug 23, 2019

@Julie Cortes Reyes, 15 and under do not need a license to fish. If a person is 16 years or older they are required to have a fishing license. If the person fishing only plans to fish fresh water, the salt water purchase is not necessary. But if they plan to use more than one fishing rod they will have to pay for the use. Some places only allow one rod in the water at a time other lakes may allow more than one with the purchase of the sticker for it. There are fish in Craig Regional Park, however they only have Catfish and Carp if I recall correctly. Unfortunately, no bass within this lake.

Is there fishing allowed?

Rudy Ornelas | Aug 23, 2019
Brian Maurer MTB | Aug 23, 2019

Yes you can fish at Craig Regional Park, the species of fish there are catfish and carp, unfortunately no bass, possibly bluegill. Any angler age 16 or older must buy a CA sportfishing license. This applies to state residents (anyone who has been living in CA continuously for six months or more) and non-residents. Licenses for residents and non-residents are sold separately.

Is it mountain bike friendly

joe rodriguez | Aug 23, 2019
Cynthia C Perez | Aug 23, 2019

There's no bike trails, but if you don't mind using the road pavement the cars use because the entrance starts at the top of the hill and semi-spirals down to the lower end of the park. The best way to view it will be to googlemap streetview. Hope this helps!
