About the Location
Splash, Play, and Gather
Tucked into the Portola Springs neighborhood, Plateau Park features a Junior Olympic-sized swimming pool that's great for getting your laps in or just cooling off on those warm California days. Got little ones? They'll love splashing around in the separate wading pool where they can play safely while you keep an eye on them.
If basketball is more your speed, the full basketball court is ready for your next pickup game or solo practice session. And parents, you'll appreciate the tot lot where your little ones can climb and explore on playground equipment while staying cool under thoughtfully placed shade structures.
Outdoor Living at Its Finest
The park includes barbecue facilities and scattered picnic tables for outdoor dining. It's a wonderful spot to flip some burgers while the kids play, or to host that family gathering you've been planning.
The park's great lawn offers a refreshing patch of green where you can toss a frisbee, practice yoga, or simply lie back and cloud-watch for a while. Sometimes the simplest pleasures are the best ones.
The Practical Stuff
You'll discover clean, well-maintained restrooms here - a small detail that makes a big difference when you're spending the day outside. The overall tidiness of the park makes for a much more pleasant experience, something you'll notice right away.
Parking is plentiful, so you won't have to circle the block or park streets away just to enjoy what Plateau Park has to offer.
