South Town Park

Park Overview

Located in the southern part of Vacaville, California, South Town Park is a popular green retreat within the Southtown master-planned development that took shape in the early 2000s. If you hear locals referring to it as Little Oak Park, don't be confused - it's the same place, and even appears under this name on official Parks and Recreation maps.

This park has become something of a neighborhood living room, where residents gather to enjoy the outdoors, play, and connect. With its generous open spaces, it's meant for spreading out a picnic blanket, tossing a frisbee around, or simply attending one of the many community events that bring neighbors together.

Recreation Facilities

At the heart of the park lies Magnolia Park, home to well-maintained baseball fields, a spacious soccer field, and winding walking trails that invite you to stretch your legs and soak in some nature. The area accommodates both organized sports and casual walking.

Basketball courts offer a place to shoot some hoops, while the children's playgrounds ensure that family outings include something for everyone.

Playground Areas

The thoughtful design of South Town Park includes age-appropriate play spaces that parents will appreciate. Little ones can safely explore the toddler playground with equipment sized just for them, while more adventurous kids can challenge themselves at the big kid playground. Both big and little swings mean that children of all ages can experience that classic playground joy of soaring through the air.

Amenities

When hunger strikes, the park's picnic areas and barbecue facilities make it easy to enjoy an outdoor meal. One of the park's best features has to be its abundant trees, providing welcome shade that makes even summer visits pleasant. The natural canopy creates peaceful, cool spots to relax - a true gift on those warm California days.

Location and Community Impact

The park's proximity to residential areas means you can easily walk or bike over from nearby neighborhoods. The park is a popular place where neighbors meet and children play, contributing to the sense of community in Vacaville.
