A well maintained patch of land with great walking paths. Perfect for creative photography, bird watching and all-around enjoying the outdoors. I walked the grounds quickly this morning just to get a feel for what the place was like and will definitely be back. I would guess that you have to arrive early to take in the true beauty of this area as parking seemed very limited and it probably gets very busy. I was there around 9:30am on a Sunday and there were not many people there yet.

Lovely garden in the heart of Carmichael-Fair Oaks. Only negative was the traffic noise, but it was a great experience, nonetheless. Beautiful and well-marked flora on an easy trail.

Small botanical garden but very cute. It was a good escape from the city. Nice way to be in nature.

Nice place to walk around with lots of trees, plants, and flowers. A few picnic benches near the entry area. Lots of benches scattered around everywhere. Everything is very well maintained. Didn’t see a bathroom, but there’s a porta potty in the parking lot. Had a great time walking the dog here.

I lived in the house on the upper side of the park for 13+ years. Grew up there. The park is amazing. Why must you ask if there is surveillance?

It is a park maintained by volunteers in collaboration with Carmichael Parks & Recreation. Like any public park, all are welcome during park hours. Field trips are welcome, but you must make all your own arrangements.
