Westlake Community Park

Location and Overview

Nestled in North Natomas, Sacramento, Westlake Community Park spreads across 10.32 acres of inviting green space. You'll come across this neighborhood location at the corner of Westlake Parkway and Broadgate Drive, about 7 miles north of Downtown Sacramento. It's part of the Westlake master-planned community, which, as you might guess, centers around a pretty lake that shares its name.

Play and Sports Options

Kids will light up at the sight of the adventure play area, complete with swings, slides, and monkey bars where they can burn off energy and make new friends. For sports enthusiasts, the park offers a variety of athletic facilities. There are bantam soccer fields for the footie fans, basketball courts for shooting hoops, baseball courts for practicing your swing, and even grass volleyball courts for beach-style play without the sand.

The park also offers plenty of open grassy areas where you can toss a football around or organize an impromptu game of ultimate frisbee with friends.

Community Hub

Westlake Community Park is both a recreational space and a gathering spot for the neighborhood. The amphitheater hosts small performances and community gatherings throughout the year.

On special evenings, the park transforms with food truck nights, where you can sample local cuisine while chatting with neighbors under the open sky - definitely worth checking out if you're visiting when one is happening.

Park Features

When you need a breather, you'll appreciate the thoughtfully placed benches and seat walls scattered across the grounds. A charming faux bridge adds character to the landscape - well-suited for those Instagram-worthy park photos. Cyclists will find convenient bike racks to secure their rides while they enjoy the park.

Hungry? The park offers several picnic areas where you can enjoy a packed lunch or casual dinner with family and friends. And good news for dog parents: your four-legged friends are welcome here, although do keep them leashed for everyone's comfort and safety.
