About the Location

Park Overview

Nestled in the Rosedale area of Bakersfield, Silver Oak Park spans a generous 9.8 acres just south of Rosedale Highway and east of Heath Road. This community location offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. What stands out immediately is how clean and well-maintained everything is throughout the park.

Amenities

The park features lush, green lawns great for picnics or games of catch. For families with little ones, the children's play areas are a major draw, with equipment tailored for both toddlers and older kids ready to climb and explore.

If you're the sporty type, you're in luck. The basketball courts regularly host friendly pick-up games where you might make a few new friends. The tennis courts come complete with pickleball lines and are usually available without much wait. There are also several baseball dugouts excellent for practice sessions or impromptu games.

The expansive open field is a favorite among dog owners - just remember to keep your furry friends leashed as there's no designated off-leash area. Thankfully, poop bags are provided, so there's no excuse not to clean up!

Picnic and Gathering Areas

Looking for a spot to celebrate? The shaded picnic areas make for perfect party venues. With grills available and shelter from the sun, these spaces are great for gatherings of all kinds. Everything from birthday parties to family reunions happens in these cozy corners.

Seasonal Features

When summer temperatures soar, the spray park offers welcome relief from the heat. Kids (and let's be honest, adults too) can splash around and beat the heat in this refreshing splash pad. Just note that the spray park typically only operates for a month or two during peak summer, so time your visit accordingly.

Recreation Opportunities

Sunday mornings have become something of an unofficial pickleball meet-up time, with enthusiasts gathering at the courts to play this increasingly popular sport. If you prefer a more solitary activity, the walking trail meanders through the park and connects to the surrounding neighborhood, offering a pleasant route for your morning stroll or evening constitutional.

Hours of Operation

The park welcomes visitors daily from 5 AM to 10 PM, 365 days a year. This generous schedule means you can enjoy an early morning jog as the sun rises or wind down with a twilight walk after dinner.
