About the Location
Park Overview
Found in Corona, California, Butterfield Park sprawls across a generous 44.1 acres of public space. It's a breath of fresh air for anyone looking to escape the usual hustle without actually leaving the city.
With its vast grounds, you'll discover plenty of room to do your thing - whether that's a casual stroll or something more heart-pumping. Locals often mention it's one of Corona's biggest parks, making it a go-to spot when families need some quality outdoor time.
Natural Features
The park has plenty of greenery and well-kept trails that wind throughout the space. Despite being surrounded by city life, there's something surprisingly peaceful about Butterfield - it's like a little pocket of calm in the urban landscape.
What makes this park unique? It sits right next to the Corona Municipal Airport, so you might catch glimpses of small planes taking off and landing as you relax. As part of The Prado basin, the park also hosts its fair share of local wildlife - from frogs and crawdads to possums and other critters who call this place home.
Recreational Facilities
Sports enthusiasts will appreciate Butterfield's athletic offerings, including several baseball fields and a soccer field. These spaces attract local teams and leagues all year long. The three well-designed baseball diamonds regularly host games and tournaments that bring the community together.
There's also a playground for the kids, but it's worth mentioning it's on the smaller side compared to what you might expect from a park this size.
Dog Park
Dog parents, take note - one of Butterfield's highlights is its dedicated dog park with thoughtfully separated areas for small and large furry friends. Unlike many dog parks with dirt or wood chips, this one features actual grass that's generally kept in good condition, giving your four-legged companion a nicer place to run around.
There are water stations available for thirsty pups, but they could be placed more conveniently. You might want to bring your own waste bags along, as the park's dispensers sometimes run empty.
Amenities
For comfort and convenience, you'll discover a gazebo, roomy picnic areas great for gatherings, and multiple restroom facilities around the grounds. During sporting events, there's even a snack bar that opens up to satisfy hunger pangs.
Note that the restrooms are occasionally locked, especially when there aren't any sporting events happening, so plan accordingly.
Accessibility
Butterfield Park is quite accessible, with facilities designed to accommodate people of all mobility levels. The thoughtful layout ensures that everyone in the community can enjoy what the park has to offer.
Even during busy game days, parking is usually adequate, so you shouldn't have trouble finding a spot for your vehicle.
