Esteban Park

Sports Facilities

Esteban Park features a mix of both lighted and non-lighted sports areas, so you can keep the game going even after the sun sets. The park's layout offers something for just about every type of athlete.

Team sports enthusiasts will appreciate the baseball and softball fields with lighting that lets you squeeze in that late evening practice or game. Soccer players have their own dedicated soccer field, while rugby players can tackle away on a specific rugby field within the grounds.

If you're more into individual or small group sports, you'll come across lighted basketball courts and tennis courts waiting for you (though heads up - occasionally some tennis courts might be missing their nets). And for those who love the feel of sand between their toes, there are lighted sand volleyball courts available. This variety of options gives you many ways to stay active.

Dog Park

The dog park at Esteban Park is a local favorite, featuring two adjacent fenced areas with grassy surfaces where your four-legged friends can romp freely. There's bench seating for humans to relax while watching the canine social hour unfold.

While the dog park is generally well-maintained, it's a good idea to bring your own waste bags just in case supplies run low. For everyone's safety and enjoyment, remember to keep your pup on a leash when exploring other parts of the park.

Amenities for Visitors

If you've got kids in tow, the recently renovated playground area with its fun slides will keep them entertained. Planning a get-together? You'll find ramadas and picnic areas scattered throughout the grounds, along with grills for cooking up your favorite outdoor feast.

When nature calls, you won't have to leave - restroom facilities are available for your convenience. Many areas of the park are well-lit, making evening visits both possible and pleasant, but some sections might be a bit dimmer after dark.

Recreation and Activities

Looking for a good workout spot? The perimeter path stretches just over a mile, great for walking or jogging. It's become a popular lunch break destination for nearby workers looking to get some steps in.

The generous open grassy areas provide plenty of space for impromptu frisbee games or simply spreading out a blanket to relax. Drone enthusiasts have also discovered that these open spaces make for ideal flying conditions.

Community-minded? Check out the free market held by the volleyball court on the third Saturday of each month from 8 AM to 10 AM. It's a great place to exchange clothing, housewares, and other items with your neighbors.
