Redhawk Community Park

Park Overview

Situated in the heart of Temecula, California, Redhawk Community Park spreads across 15.2 acres of public recreational space. Located within the Redhawk Community, this park offers something for everyone, whether you're looking to break a sweat or just enjoy some fresh air.

With its lush greenery, winding paths, and pretty views, there's a certain tranquility that hangs in the air here. The grounds are kept in great shape, and the facilities are clean - always a plus when you're planning to spend the day outdoors.

Notable Features

A waterfall greets you at the entrance - a lovely touch that sets the tone for your visit. This park isn't just pretty to look at though; it's designed for actually doing things, whether that's working out or simply unwinding after a long week.

The walking and running trails are well-maintained and suitable for all fitness levels - perfect if you're trying to get your steps in while enjoying some scenery. There's also a basketball half-court if you're in the mood for a quick pickup game.

Dog Park

If you're a dog parent, you'll love the dog park here - it's genuinely one of the highlights. The fenced area is thoughtfully divided into separate sections for large and small dogs, so your tiny pup won't accidentally become a chew toy for a Great Dane.

Your four-legged friend will appreciate the dog-specific water fountains, and you'll enjoy the shaded benches while watching them play. The grassy area is regularly mowed and kept in good condition - no muddy paws to deal with when you get home!

Playground and Recreation

Got kids? The playground features modern equipment that'll keep children of different ages entertained. They've even added a newer playground area recently, giving the little ones more options for burning off energy.

Around the park, open grassy areas provide plenty of space for impromptu frisbee games, picnics, or just lounging under the shade of mature trees with a good book.

Amenities

When nature calls, you'll come across clean, single-stall restrooms near the parking lot - convenient if you're wrangling small children or strollers. For meal time, picnic tables are scattered across the park, with many positioned under shade trees for comfortable outdoor dining.

Planning a small gathering? BBQ units near the picnic areas make this a great spot for family get-togethers. And don't worry about staying hydrated - water fountains are available for visitors throughout the park.

Location and Access

Redhawk Community Park sits within the larger Redhawk Community of about 3,000 homes. One nice perk of the location is its proximity to Old Town Temecula's restaurants and shops, as well as the beautiful Wine Country if you're looking to make a day of it.

Just south of Temecula Parkway and with easy access to the 15 Freeway, getting here is pretty straightforward. You should note that the parking lot can fill up during busy times, and there's a right-turn-only policy when entering and exiting the lot.

Community Space

Beyond all the recreational facilities, this park really represents a gathering hub for the community. Multiple grass areas and picnic amenities create natural spaces for family outings and casual hangouts.

One thing visitors will definitely appreciate during hot California days is the abundance of shade trees within the park. Just remember that the park closes at night, and security does make rounds to ensure everyone heads out by closing time.
