Beautiful park in yorba linda, its clean, no homeless, the redwoods could use more water, and the nature walk was exposed to the sun but we went on a beautiful spring day
Went just see to the Redwood forest in Brea... pleasantly surpised by the wonderful Carbon Canyon Park & lake too.. huge playground for kids to play. Redwood forest was beautiful, I highly recommend it!
Really nice parkPlenty of playgrounds for children and grass areaLake for fishingClean restroomWe really enjoyed it
Beautiful park. Redwood grove serene place to relax after a hike.
This is a beautiful park with lot of different playgrounds, the pond is nice to watch all the ducks and geese. There is a short walk that takes you to a Redwood Grove planted back in the 70s
This park was beautiful! My boyfriend has talked about his bucketlist and seeing Redwood trees was on the list. I searched for a place that had them and i found this place, Redwood Grove. It was amazing being there. Any nature lovers out there i definitely recommend coming here and seeing these amazing giants. These are babies compared to the ones up the coast but they were just as awesome. Theres benches in between the trees where you can sit and admire their beauty. We’re definitely coming back❤️
New to this park! But need to remind people that the butterfly park is on Lot F!! I personally was a bit nervous with rattlesnake signs everywhere, but glad no encounter when we were there. Only red ants.. lol. Its good that they warn you of poison oaks.. Dont touch it! You could find lake, shelters, horses, rabbits, geese, birds, etc. Need to return there earlier time of the day. Next visit well check out the oaks and the dam. Yes, you need to pay to enter (parking), start from $3 - $30 (buses). Weekend $5 for normal car. Nice...
Fantastic park well kept by very nice park staff. Great for walking your dogs and getting some exercise in nature.
Fantastic park with lake and play area for children and a lot of shaded places to sit. Also, there’s Hiking Trails . There’s an admission fee for entrance.
Beautiful lake! Many hiking trails and lots of picnic tables. Mostly clean park and bathrooms are clean.
Redwood Grove in park. Great hiking trails
It’s cool but it’s popular it’s not as peaceful and serene as I hoped
A great big park for picnicking, sports, fishing, meditating, wildlife viewing, biking, hiking and taking a leisurely stroll through the ‘woods!I really like urban escaping here to a more natural, quieter environment than most local parks. And as large as this park is, it never seems to get too crowded!There’s designated areas for group gatherings, some with requiring reservations.Fishing is possible at the small lake for those who are licensed. I’ve noticed people fishing from the shore or off the small piers, extended over the water a few feet.There’s designated areas for just about every kind of group sports, including baseball, volleyball and soccer, as well as the availability of tennis courts.Inside the main park, users can access everything via paved pathways. Restrooms are located all around the park.As a hiker, I’ve enjoyed going along the surrounding trails for short hikes. Natural dirt and bark pathways are par for the course(s) there. There’s no restrooms available along those paths.There’s the long Creek Trail along the south side of the park, the namesake of which is dry much of the year. There’s also trails that loop to the Carbon Canyon Dam and around to and thru the Redwood Grove. Except for the ‘Grove with its canopy cover, these trails are open space trails, so sun protection should be considered!I’m particularly fond of the Redwood Grove, shown on Google Maps and posted park maps. This is a rare grove of large trees for Southern California. Good for taking a meditative stroll thru the forrest!Kudos to Mario, Richard and crew for a landscaping and maintenance job well done!
This park is great! Has everything you and your family could ask for. Great trails and recreation areas. Fishing, volleyball, baseball diamonds and tennis courts are also available. Nice friendly people too.
Beautiful big part with various facilities for children, the trail leads to the redwood grove is a truly hidden gem!
Photographer approved!! 🤩 this park is amazing!! Definitely worth checking out! It’s $3 to get in!
Awesome escape. Ive been with my kids and without; lots to explore(or just chill) for all ages. The redwood grove is beautiful, feels like a slice of NorCal. Packed on the weekends, for good reason. Go during the week if you dont like crowds.
Favorite park to go to on the weekend. Beautiful tennis courts, nice hiking trails, playground for kids of different age levels. Well maintained. Especially pretty in February/March when the hills are green.
Beautiful park + lake and a nice walk through the redwoods. A very easy hike.
The best part of this park are the Redwoods. Its the only successful non-native Redwood grove in Southern California. OC Parks regularly waters them to keep them alive, and maintains thick mulch around the base of these cherished Redwoods to keep them moist. Theres even mushrooms growing in the mulch! They planted them in a shady part of Carbon Canyon, which helps. But Yorba Linda is otherwise very dry. It feels about 20 degrees cooler among the Redwoods here than in the rest of Yorba Linda. And the evergreen scent smells so refreshing. Reminds me of being in the Redwood forests of Mendocino County or Big Sur.
Awesome park. Bike/walk trails, beautiful small hidden redwood forest area. The lake is really cool also.
Been coming here for the last 55 years. No other Tommys hamburgers taste the same as this place in my opinion. Nice LA experience. One thing I noticed all women cooks now. Sorry dont want to be sexist but they prepare food so much slower. But quality control is 10+
Loved this place. A short easy trail walk to the Redwoods cluster which is gorgeous 😍. Then back to the park area. Kids loved the lake, ducks and of course the playgrounds. 3 different ones for different size ranges open. The newest for the older kids is currently fenced off for continued construction of it. The swing selection is fun and accommodates differently abled. 🥰 many different climables and ride ons that even the parents can share in.
Great park family areas were spaced out nicely bathroom was clean in our area not to far for my wheelchair to go and fit nicely in the regular bathroom without having to wait for the handicap one. We will definitely be going back soon!!
Great place to bring your family, extremely clean and plenty of room for day out or family activities. Parking is $5 bucks ..well worth it .. fun games for the kids and easy fishing. A must visit location
Gorgeous place, can not see it all in one day! They do charge to get in but its a great park with lots of open space, table seating and play grounds for the kids. They have path ways to walk around the park and for the most part very well taken care of! I havent seen it all but so far for what I have seen its awesome!
Paid $5 to get in. Park open until 9pm. Turn to the left for parking and if you want to go into the redwood grove you drive to the right and the parking is there. Beautiful grassland and plenty of benches for social distance.
Best kept secrets in O C. Easy to hike,and lots of free parking. Beautiful location,and very quiet. A must place to visit,if you want to enjoy the redwoods with out the drive. This trail takes you into Chino State Park. Most dogs are on leash,no strollers,or many bikes. More of a tranquil place. I have seen photo shoot,but for the most part, never more then 2 or 3 people. Again, very friendly,clean,quiet and beautiful place.
I recently photographed an engagement session in the Redwood Grove at Carbon Canyon Regional Park. I recommend going a couple hours before sunset because it can get dark quickly amongst the towering trees!
Very nice park and the trails have some nice scene. Nice lake, lots of places to sit to relax as well.
We took the trail to the redwood grove. It was an easy hike. Then followed the Santiago Creek trail to the end and walked back to the car from there. It was a little over 3 miles total. It was absolutely beautiful. Ive always wanted to go, glad we finally did.
Nice and beautiful place to bike and hike,and picnic, Family sport, friend gather up for a whole relaxing day. Very big park and have tennis court and hiking trial. We love to go to the wet pond to see little tadpole. Watching the water going down quick, hope those little frogs can survive. Overall is a great park to explore. Last weekend it was so crowded.
Great park. Lots of things to do. Plenty of picnic tables. Hiking trails. The Telegraph Canyon Trail (hiking/biking) is literally next door. Parking at Chino Hills State Park is $5, but here, it is only $3.
I peaked in the window if the nature center (they close at 2 Sat. and Sun.). Looks like a great place to get info. on the flora and fauna of the area. Theres a huge red tailed hawk (stuffed) on the counter and a cougar and Bob cat.You can also rent a room there for parties or meetings. I mountain biked up Telegraph Trail to 4 Corners. There were some tough climbs for me, but boy was that FUN riding down!!! We saw a dad with 3 kids (5-10 yrs. old) who made it that far as well! I cant wait to come back and try it again!
Very clean and well kept park in a beautiful canyon with hiking and biking trails all around the area. Hit the like if this review helps you.Watch out for hotdog size land mines left on the grass near the lakes - left there by the geese.The playground equipment is really great with separate structures for each different age group and nice long slides.
Nice park with a lake, tennis courts, and some shady trails. Great for family picnics and a walk with your furry friends
We went hiking this morning. My 2 year old was able to walk this entire trail. Mostly flat ground so great for beginner hikers or anyone ready to just get out and be with nature. We enjoyed our time. One thing I would of appreciated most is if the porta potties were open for use. There are few along the trail which is pretty neat and could be very helpful. One thing that stood out was how clean these trails were. I dont recall seeing any trash or wrappers along the path and there is a trash can. This area seems to be very looked after which is wonderful.
$5 for parking, totally worth it! Fun hike to the red woods, fun park, the kids played for hours! Somehow didnt take any pictures of the redwoods
Very clean park to bring your family too $3 for the mon-fri. Saturday-Sunday $5. Well worth the price of admission
Love the different plants here and the spacing of the park. Makes it feel bigger than it is.Also leads to great MTB is State park.
In this time of physical distancing it was nice going to stick a wide open park. First weekend open, so who knows how it will go forward from here.Dirt trail paths are pretty wide open, so felt pretty safe. Playground equipment was all fenced off, so stuff is good.
Love going there for an early or late walk. Its always clean. I did notice some graffiti on some parts of the white fence leading to the trees, sad to see that.
Great park to go to the only place in Southern California to see redwood trees 🌳 there are trails, play grounds, a lake to fish, and picnic tables it cost 3 dollars on weekdays to park 5 dollars on weekends to park
Its so pleasant to go on a walk here. The redwoods is so awesome reminds me of Northern Cali. Good for an easy hike using the longer routes in total was about 3.7 almost 4 miles of a walk/hike
Beautiful park. You have to pay to park or park across the street by the museum or houses. The park was very crowded on a sunday. Good place to celebrate a birthday but lacking on hiking trails. Great place to fish. Would be relaxing if it wasnt crowded
Beautiful park started at opposite end of park from entrance an walked through the Botanical garden an took the red wood trail long walk took over hour pretty much flat.
A quick Pros & Cons list to help you in your visit;Pros:1. Ample parking for everyone (paid $3-$5)2. A huge green grassy area for everyone to play!3. Numerous HUGE shade trees to gather under.4. A nice size pond with ducks around.5. The grove of Redwood trees to see!6. Plenty of hiking trails with signs.7. A beautiful park to visit, but HOT!Cons:1. Its HOT! So check the weather, and prepare.2. The hiking trails are very dusty. In some areas, almost like talcum powder. Be prepared for that sweaty body, and those sweaty legs to get all dirty ...hahaha. The only trail that isnt dusty is the small portion within the Redwood grove itself, as its covered with mulch.
This park has a very cool pond, and a big playground for the kids to play in. There’s a great area for hiking, and taking photos. The Park is on the smaller side, but a great place to take your kids out. The only downside is that it cost 5$ to get in and they charge a reentry fee.
We love this park. Theres alot of different trails to walk, bbqs, equestrian friendly, dog friendly and a place for the kids. It was so pretty. There is a 5 dollar fee to get in but it is so worth it!
Carbon canyon regional park is in my top 5 places to fly my DJI Phantom 4s, now that says Alot! Very nice well kept up park, very relaxing to fly my Phantom there. Nice lake and playground area for kids, you can also go mountain biking from there. You do have to pay to get in, M--F $3, and weekends I believe its $5. And can you believe they have a redwood tree grove, here at Carbon Canyon!
Beautiful place to relax and maybe takes special photos for special eventes like XV or weadings. It has trails to walk and hike. The parking cost is only $3.00. It has clean bathrooms and clean lake. You can fish there but I ignore about the requisits for fishings. You must contact personal of the park. The most amaizing adventure is to rich to the Red Woods and learn about them. Children always enjoy the hiking and come back home so relaxed and calm. I really recomed this place for an adventure but go prepared with enogh water to drink to avoid isolation. When you rich to the Red Wood, they have fontains but it si better to go prepared especially if you are bringing small kids and pets. Also bring hats and be prepared to walk. Also be causious with coyotes and montain lions. There are signs warning hikers about them so always keep small kids and pets close to you and be preared on what to do in case you enconter one of them. What mostly we have encontered is coyote and we just not show ourselves afraid and we make noise to scare them. Show yourself stronger then them but always with respect to the fauna. Hope you enjoy the place as we have.
Nice lake and picnic areas. The redwood grove is very special. The trails to the rim and dam offer nice views of the valley. Many migratory birds enjoy the lake and surroundings. This picture of pelicans fishing on the lake at sunset was inspiring.
Beautiful views and I like going up the little hills to see all the homes around here. Theres a nice little lake and not too crowded, even on a Saturday.
Beautiful place with plenty to explore. Very mild hikes with awesome views of nature along the way. CHECK OUT THE LITTLE SEQUOIAS HIDDEN DEEPER IN THE PARK!
Beautiful park. Lots to do for everyone. Nice walking trails. Great scenery including the largest (per park info) redwood grove in southern California
Pretty good spot, i visited on a Saturday afternoon, plenty of people but you still have a lot of distance
Awesome little park to post up in and enjoy the day. Plenty of space and shade from the trees.
Surprise to find redwoods in So Cal. Nice green park (although some areas closed due to COVID) backed by hiking trails. Not much shade other than tree area.
There is a small trail inside the park that leads to a little redwood area. It is really beautiful there. The park side is pretty big too. There is a big lake inside the park. This would make a great place to have a picnic and hang out with your family and pets.
A lovely space close to home if you live in north OC. Lots of families visit on the weekend but theres plenty of space. During the week, its less traveled, except the redwood forest which always seems to have people taking photos.
Nice park to take your family so many things to do
I liked how there were benches for people fishing, shade from trees, plain fields, also a big play ground!! My sisters enjoyed it too.
A nice regional park with a lot of trees, pond and nice trail. A pleasant place. Also, well maintained!
This is a lovely park with a small lake and benches. Its a nice place to have a nice sit and stare.
This is the best park around this area to go with kids. great play areas, a nice walk around the lake, clean toilets. parking is 3$ on the week and 5 on weekends
Beautiful park. Lots of playgrounds, bbqs, trails and fishing! I love the sand in the playgrounds instead of the bark thats most everywhere else.
Very nice park, great jungle gym and parking fee only $5.00. Had a small birthday party. Enjoyed the fresh air and the nice clam feeling.
It was our first time there and it was very hot.We also had our dog with usWe will return when it is a little cooler lol
Nice and clean park. Great park for small kids.
Great park ,nice walk to the red woods grove.
Nice park, nice trails, love the red woods, friendly staff check in at the entrance, worth spend time at the park walk my dog.
Great place for family fun. Kept up very well, staff on top of keeping it a safe clean environment.
Beautiful park with plenty of areas to lie down under the shade. Also have bbq pits and clean restroom facilities. Great times with the family.
Trails were surprisingly narrow into the park but overall a very scenic hike!
Great place to go picnic with friends, family, and even other occasion use. A place for fishing, barbeque and play sports. Tons of tables and chairs a convenient play, clean public restroom, even a place to take pictorial. Great for toddlers to adult, different play area for kids, area is clean and park ranger on site. A small entrance fee, but worth it.
Great easy hike around a park area.Fun for the whole family.
Beautiful park. Multiple playgrounds for kids. The lake is beautiful, and they have several picnic tables located under trees for shade. There also are several walking trails, one leading to a grove of red woods. Seeing them is a magical experience. Highly recommend!
Beautiful park with excellent playgrounds for kids of all ages. Access to hiking trails and a small lake.
Have you been here? This is a great place for runners hikers cyclist and chess people who want to enjoy the outdoors
Great for morning strolls or hikes with your loved ones 😍
Awesome place for the family of you enjoy hiking and exploring. Definitely recommend going here if you have kids
Nice park, only $5 parking fee. Big playground and nice shelters to have a BBQ at. Can get hot though.
Absolutely amazing first stop in California! Made the quick hike to the redwood area. So beautiful!
A buddy caught a 5 to 6 lb catfish here, good amount of trails and playgrounds and BBQs here for a small park.
Beautiful park, very well kept and ample parking areas. Me and my kids have a blast every time we go there to play tennis
Redwoods in Southern California! They are located at the back of the park and down a hiking trail. Also a nice spot for fishing. They stock it with catfish, bass, trout and a few others. Admission is $3 per car during the week and $5 per car on the weekend.
This is a formally developed huge sprawling park just about a mile or two in from the entrance to Carbon Canyon. They have lots of covered structures for family parties, a beautiful little lake, plenty of shady trees, playground structures for children etc. There is an entrance fee for cars.
This park is decent, a little lake, trails, tennis courts and redwoods. Its a decent park.
Hammocking is aparently not allowed at this park. The only rule I saw was no roping or sectioning off an area
An easy trail leading to a small redwood grove. Nice for a family hiking. The trail is easy enough even for the seniors. Yet, there is enough fun for everyone to enjoy.
Great park and easy hiking trails. A great starter hike.
Nice local park. The fees are cheap and there is lots to do!
Awesome park. Check out the redwoods section for cool pics. It is about a 15 minute walk from parking lot A
Pretty good park it got a lake and a trail to a redwoods trees in the middle of nowhere! Love it
So beautiful! Well maintained trails and a redwood grove.
So beautiful. My kids Loved it. An entry fee of $5 Totally worth it.
A lot of activities for kids, geese and ducks walking around. Nice facilities for group activities.
Beautiful park. Attended a Cross Country Invitational. Not alot of parking, but when the lots are full there is paid parking right at the trails. Was only $5 for the day.Plenty of benched/gazebos, playground lots of tennis courts. Overall a nice place to spend the day.
This is my favorite park to go bike riding. From beginner to expert. Its awesome, I been coming here for over 15 years.
Great park with bbqs and a lake to spend time with the family.
A great park to play with your kids, relax, fish, bird watch, or just walk around in a natural environment.
This park is very clean and nice for family to relax with your pets. the ducks are a little angery they chased my puppy and me and i loved how theres no one with all that smoking, just the smell of bar b que. keep up the great job.
My favorite place in Orange County. Walks through the Redwoods. Hike over the dam. Fishing at the lake. Great place!
Place was great, plenty of shade all over the place. Plenty of restrooms strategically placed. Also, it doesnt get too packed even on weekends. And its connected to Chino Hills State Park so there are countless miles of trails for hiking. Not to mention Southern Californias largest Redwood Grove, home to 300 individual trees, is just a 15 minute hike from the parking lot. All around a great park, 5 dollars for parking is worth it. And 3 dollars on weekdays.
For a very nice chill walk/hike its amazing, really shaded walking and redwoods! The small redwood forest is very peaceful. The grounds are kept very clean as well which makes this a place to keep coming back to!
Great for a hike or mountain bike ride. Lots of open space and a wide range of trails.
This is a gorgeous park with the highlight (for me, at least) being the beautiful redwood forest there. Definitely worth checking out. Theres also a ton of grass and a cute lake there. You could easily spend a day chilling at this park. Very spacious and nice.
Beautiful park with lots of great areas for kids.
Its a very interesting place ..has a small redwood grove. Nice walk up the dam
Great park, spot for kids and a hiking trail
My happy place!
Chino Hills State Park section by the Discovery Center was used to host a memorial service for Douglas Dale. The building could be rented for @$250.00 and it was the perfect spot!! Tables, chairs, little kitchen area and a screen. It was a beautiful sendoff for a long time Carbon Canyon resident.
Lovely park for parties. Several play areas for kids and wildlife to warch.
Awesome little park, gets surprisingly busy early in the morning. Weve been taking our daughter here to run around and get some fresh air during the current climate. Theres a neat-o little lake as well, occupied by some territorial geese lol. As long as you dont mess with them, youll enjoy this park.
Lots of picnic tables, a variety of trees, squirrels, geese and grassy areas to hang out on. And nice clean tennis courts too. There is a sidewalk around almost if not the whole perimeter of the park or you can walk on a dirt trail. A great place to get away from the city and be around nature.
We attended a birthday party and it was a hot day but the sheds you can reserve were great and most spots had trees as well. It has lots of playgrounds and sheds. The lake was a nice touch. You can get great pics as well. Too bad I had my phone die before I could take some.
What an amazing trail, and not too far in real Redwood trees! Great for family hikes and an easy level.
Fun park with great guidance. the sequoia are small but its a nice patch none the less.
Fantastic playgrounds for the kiddos, as long as its not too hot, since none of them are shaded. Good BBQ/picnic areas, and plenty of geese, coots, ducks, and egrets. Also great for the kids, if theyre into that sort of thing. One of our go-to spots for the playgrounds, particularly if you have the OC annual pass.
The main park is well-kept. But the real draw is the short hike to the redwood grove. There are 241 sequoias here, providing a nice, shady place to relax. The Grove is uncommon in Southern California and definitely non-native, but nice nevertheless. The trees are much younger and shorter than the native groves in the Sierras. Quite a novelty.
Beautiful park great play structures for kids clean nice small pond
Awesome easy access,,large,lots of wildlife birds,squirrels, fishing, great playgrounds
Beautiful place! Take the family! They will love it!
Good park, but there’s too much poop from the animals from the lake. What’s really great here is the hiking, since this park is known for hiking, but when walking around the main park and picnicking here, it seems like there’s too much poop from geese, dogs, and other animals, and they’re mostly on grass.
Carbon Canyon, for me makes a great morning gravel bike ride, along with picnic breakfast by the lake.
None little park with a small section of red wood
Serene and well maintained park. Fishing pond, lots of shade trees & nice playground for the kids. $3 fee per car on weekdays, $5 on weekends.
Beautiful park with great walking & hiking trails. They have beach volleyball, horseshoe pits, tennis courts, butterfly garden & mini redwood forest.
This is a fantastic park. Ive been here for family reunions, parties, and for family photos. Beautiful park with lots of space for biking, hiking and enjoying the lake. You MUST visit the small redwood forest on your visit. Its an easy flat 10 min. walk to get there (about 20 min. round trip).
Nice large and open grass areas, large playground, decent size lake and walking trails. The restrooms and outside hand washing area were clean and well maintained! So was the cover picnic and grilling area. Felt nice to see the friendly park range cruising around.
Beautiful outdoor hiking trails in the back of the park. Small lake, playground, and trails.
Love walking the trails and visiting the redwood grove.
Awesome location for the family.
This is the only grove of Red Giants in Orange County and its located in the city of Brea. Trail is capricious—-so stay on the dirt while keeping a watchful eye for snakes. Rangers are caring and alert/available to park patrons requests.Mountain bikers frequent this trail along with joggers so be alert. Trail is flat and restrooms are nearby. You will need to pay for parking or buy OC Parks Pass (definitely worth it) and this includes use of playground, lake, access to wild animals geese, squirrels and goslings.Cool trails here. Do note temperature is crisp in the redwood grove (bring a light jacket). Geese looked healthy---viewed waddling to the lake.Park Ranger helped remedy a natural crisis involving a hummingbird baby. 🙏🏻
Lovely little spot for walk.
Amazing place, very peaceful, great walking trails! A MUST visit if you can!
It was all good but there was too much duck dung on the grass
Nice park with small lake. Fishing allowed with license for age 16 & up. Kids play area include sandbox.
Great place for a walk. I recommend just before sunset. The views are great. The walk is lesuirely. Great outing for a young family.
These red woods are not native of south California, theyve been nursed and pacified for 50 years so gently with subtle every that you can feel the sacredness and lightness and so much love under these lovely trees. Good job the care takers.
What a cool park! Its a 3 dollar entrance but it is worth it to have so many things you can take advantage of. From biking/walking trails, duck pond, lots of space to be socially distance, to multiple playgrounds and tennis courts there is just so much you can do. Lots of trees for shade and lots of tables to sit at. Surprised I have lived in socal my whole life and havent been there till today. Look forward to going again soon
Very nicely laid out with open spaces,clean bathrooms and a lake ro.fosh in. Great families and medium size groups. The bird poop from.the geese take away from it but dogs are allowed on leashes and thats a positive. All in all a very nice park.
Great park, wide spaces, with tennis courts, a man-made lake, and even ducks and geese! Its undergoing renovation: tennis courts, parking spaces, etc.
Beautiful views. Wonderful wildlife. Great seeing all the people out enjoying nature and family time. The playground equipment was all in use and the cooking areas were clean and enjoyed by several people.
Such a beautiful park, a great photo spot. but beware the goose poop!!!
Great trails and open enough to distance. Most children are seen playing, but it depends on how comfortable you are with letting kids play. Access to restrooms depends on your location/area, but they have the facilities.
Great little eatery here, we meet up here often before we ride. Easy to find and get to, with plenty of parking. Friendly smiling faces. Quick service and great food with good sized portions.
Beautiful park with a pond and trails. The trails dont have shade so better be prepared. Theres play area for kids and lot of picnic tables. Parking fee $3 weekdays and $5 on weekends
Very nice hike for families with kids and dogs! Only about a mile.
Fabulous place, hidden gem. Beautiful redwoods, so peaceful. Gotta ck out this place 👍
Lovely spacious park 🏞️. Tons of trees and mini trails. Has plenty of picnic benches, tennis courts, volleyball courts and a lake. Plus not to mention cute ducks and geese. Entry is currently only $5. Well worth it.
The small pond/lake was clean. The small groups of people were well distanced and respectful. The park was also well maintained with a minimum of litter. The public restrooms were open.Lots of shade. Lots of picnic tables in the shade. Lots of parking (remember its Covid season.)Worth every penny of the $5 Day Fee.
Nice big park plenty of areas to use.
Very nice park, nice easy trails to walk also
One of the cleaner lakes in Orange County. Wasnt afraid to let my dog Roxy near it. The redwoods were beautiful and provided a lot of shade on a hot Southern California day.
Very good park! Great hike!!
Nice place, a lot bbq zones.
Not much of a hike buts its convenience and redwoods make it nice. The park/lake adds more options but the hike itself isnt anything to remember. its a 4 star park, with meh hike bonus. Parking seems adequate but never been during peak times.warning: proximity factor probably playing too much a role in my assessment.
Lots of activities, big park! Excellent for taking the kids and family out!
Great hikes the redwoods were really cool
The park is wide enough to accommodate visitors. There are trails, tennis courts, playgrounds in the park so lots of things for friends and families to do here. My favorite part is the red wood area. The red woods are tall and provide cool shades. Definitely not something common in SoCal.
Went straight to the redwoods beautiful small area of them not the giant ones we usually think of but a nice, calm, peaceful area to go to. Beautiful park area as well well kept up area as the landscaping was out working. no trash around.Probably the nicest bathrooms Ive seen for a park.Just a beautiful pleasant area to go to with the lake and ducks .Parking... You can pay or park up the hill neighborhood instead of going into the parkDistance /miles .. can get a two mile or one mile walk in depending on direction you take in the park. Ask at the entrance for a map and directions.
Amazing!! With its own mini redwood forest. The playground are amazing for the children. And with wild ducks and goose to look at its a great time with family.
Great park hiking tennis a lake volley ball. Nature center along your hike. Very clean one of my favorite parks.
Beautiful Park, nice scenery, and some wildlife.
Great place with nice scenery park and trailsWe took a lot of pictures in Redwood trail 👍
Plenty of play area for kids. Fishing .highly recommend
It was a really cool place to see.. Will go back again soon..
Wonderful playgrounds (4 different ones!) with many swings and fun equipment for the kiddos. Great hiking trail to the beautiful redwood forest.
This park is a GEM. Its secluded, well kept, abundant picnic tables with BBQ, playgrounds and a fishing lake. $3 per vehicle entry fee.
Very good hike for people looking for an easy walk. The redwoods are spectacular.
Great view! Really nice for mtb.
An easy place to walk. Perfect for cooler weather.
Nice trails. Did an hour and a half walk to and from the redwoods.
Son loves to play at Carbon Canyon. Always clean and well taken care of. Great place to walk or even hike. Nice little lake. Has some bass and trout.
This is a really pretty park with multiple playgrounds, parking lots, and barbecue areas. Everything was kept clean and there are lots of trees with a nice open like to watch the ducks swim.Great for nature walks and trail exercising with cool poles and how- to boards for each stop. I will definitely be returning with lots of friends and might even take up as they have multiple courts to practice at
What a nice experience! Short, easy hike. Good for elderly and kids too. Dogs allowed as long as leashed. Saw amazing redwoods and birdwatched. Nice lake as well. Great place to visit.
Such a great park to spend the whole day there. Multiple trails to hike and explore with the family.
At the end of the trail in this park, you will find a small redwood forest. It is super cool in this hot summer. It just like a reward for people who reach the end of the trail.
Clean, plenty of space, fun fishing, my boys had a blast looking for eggs. We went the day before easter but still found space and parking. Parking is the only down fall but again I came a sat before Easter. Awsoume park
Very clean, very good for family good place for families. My mom and I went there together to have fun this spring.
Lots of space, but paths are still somewhat crowded. The redwood grove is so nice!
I have come here a few times after finding out that there were some Redwoods that werent at the Fullerton Arboretum within Orange County. I was excited because i love Redwood trees. Coming into here, I began expecting alot because of how closed off and in the hills this park was, and was indeed not disappointed.Parking here is around $3 or $5 on the weekends I believe. If you want to avoid paying, you can park a little further in the neighborhood, which was really far in my experience. I prefer parking inside now and donating some of my hard earned cash towards the maintenance of California Regional Parks.The contents of the park is magnificent. Theres a small lake or a big pond in the park with docks on either side which makes for great meditation. There tennis courts to the east of the park, Picnic areas and benches scattered, a beach volleyball court at the entrance to the trails, playgrounds, and a dam that sits somewhat close to the Redwoods that makes a for a nice hike and beautiful views.All and all, this place is such an Orange County gem and by far one of my favorite regional parks within the county. Whether you want to go for a leisurely stroll, taking the kids out for some fresh air, or coming here for an intense hike. This park has it all.
On March 30, 2021, I arrived at the park for lunch with my son on our motorcycles. The woman at the gate was very disrespectful. After paying the full amount to enter she lifted the gate and we began to enter. She then yelled at us to stop and then said to us are you serious? I guess we did not get our tickets. If she wasnt ready for us to enter then she shouldnt have opened the gate.Also while we were having lunch the gardener came by blowing leaves and dust at us while we were eating. I love the park but the staff is awful.
The ambience here is awesome! I found that, even with many people around (although definitely social distancing) my experience was quite pleasant. The hills nearby and the size of the park provide for easy, nice walks.
My kids love this park. It’s local for us so we go for a lot of different activities... playground (there’s like 5), fish in lake, go on redwood “hike”. There’s also tennis courts, though we haven’t used them yet. Nice shaded grass areas. The only complaint is in the summer there’s not really any shade on the playground structures so go early morning or late
From a fishing standpoint, I was slightly disappointed. With the tail end of the bass spawn approaching, I was expecting to be able to fish the residual beds, and the late spawning fish. However, I was greeted by hunks of algae, and lake scum. No matter if the rig was weedless, or a Texas rigged worm, I would receive a lure covered in muck. Other than this, the park is gorgeous. Unique, diverse sets of trees cast their shadows across the many paths, perfect for midday family strolls. There are many shaded areas of which to sit at and enjoy a meal, as well as bountiful restroom access. If looking for a local OC fishing spot, look again. If looking for a great park to spend a day doing anything BUT fishing, look no further.
As parks go, this is one of the best in all of Orange County. Great for events or a couple hours at the park. Theres a large lake with fishing allowed, multiple playgrounds for kids, sand play areas, and a number of shades picnic areas (some which can be reserved in advance). One thing our group loved was the water faucet attached to the drinking fountain. Useful for washing off sandy feet or filling up buckets/water bottles.Parking/entrance fee is $5.00. I was pleased with the upkeep of the park and noticed park staff coming around to take care of emptying trashcans, etc.
Limited parking if there are a lot of people. Also, costs $5 to get in, at least by vehicle. I reckon you could walk or bike in for free. Its a huge park with plenty of dirt trails. I was here for a college cross country meet. There are places to have picnics here and plenty of areas for children to play in. You can mountain bike here, too. Oh, and theres a good-sized pond here, as well.

2022-01-14Lovely park there is an artificial lake that is stocked for fishing, a nice playground, tennis courts and short trails. The area is slowly healing from the fires but still looks beautiful. The main attraction is the redwood grove they have two trails to get there one is shorter. Definitely worth the walk.

2022-01-18Walked back to the redwood forest they were beautiful...was surprised people walk all the way back there to take family pictures. Its great but take the short path to the right when you enter the park and park at the end of the lake to see the trees. Lots of room to relax. Some unique sights, butterfly area, pretty birds very nice!!

2021-08-04Carbon Canyon Regional Park is a great place to spend the day, or to have a large family gathering. We did the Redwoods Grove trail, which was very easy, and is only 1.5 miles long. It was great to both see and smell the giant trees. This is such a hidden gem, and as there are picnic tables, a wonderful spot for a picnic. Much of the hike was in the sun, but still fun. There is even a dam along the way. The entrance fee is $3, and worth it. We parked by the trail head, which was a dirt lot, but other lots around the park were asphalt. There are shelters, with BBQ pits, which should be reserved ahead of time on the OC Parks website. Fishing is allowed in the pond for those interested. There are tennis courts, volleyball courts, baseball field, bicycling/bike trails, equestrian trails, walking paths, restrooms, and an awesome playground. The six massive slides were one of the main reasons we chose to come to this place. Dogs are allowed, but should be kept on a leash. I’m most assuredly going to plan a family get-together here, and I’m looking forward to another enjoyable experience.

2022-02-13Very nice park - lots of shaded areas and benches. Also, decent size lake and lots of grass area. Very pretty sunsets over the water, and the filters arent so strong that they move the water, so it often looks like glass.

2022-06-13Interesting park in Brea, near Chino Hills. Part of the park is the typical neighborhood park with kids swing, slides, and overwatered lawns. Part of the park has a very nice native garden, well tended, labelled, and comprehensive. Yet another part has, to my knowledge the only coastal Redwoods grove in Southern California. Well worth the trek in the hot Sun, to feel to cool sombering peace of the Red giants. The park is also the western gateway into Chino Hills State Park, well worth exploring in the Spring with full wildflower bloom to re-inforce the names from the native garden. 😉

2021-08-16Hiking trail here is refreshing. The hiking trail is located in the innermost park lot of the park. Went on a little exploring around the park, very nice area for dogs. There is also a lake in the middle of the park. Both hiking trail were great, but I would suggest the redwood trail, the redwood area is refreshing and filled with wildlife and damp air. Definitely a place for a family trip.

2021-07-06Took my brother and mother on this very easy hike at the park.The park has picnic tables, trash cans, benches, grills, and restrooms throughout. We paid $3 for parking. I saw 3 playgrounds for the kiddos, tennis court and a pond. Saw a few people fishing. There are a few trails and are super easy. Lots of parking.
