It was such a nice day. They keep the park nice. We had an area all set up for a birthday. Even a worker came and took our garbage and gave us extra bags.

Enjoyed the nice scenery here, when it is a bit colder its not crowded, and very peaceful and serene

The park is nice and unique but there is a distinct lack of shade. A handful of smaller trees. Great for sun-lovers but redheads beware. If you are concerned about shade being an umbrella or tent.

One of the nicest and most unique parks in San Francisco.

There are plenty of spots to sit, there's a grassy area if you'd like to have a picnic, and there are porta-potties if you need to use one. There are great views of the bay and a platform so you can see everything. Also, the area is very clean and you could probably swim in the cove if you wanted.

Not only is it a park, but also a historical site. There are many signs with information about people building ships and some remnants of the equipment. Overall, I highly recommend this park. You could easily spend a whole afternoon here.

Quite impressed on the atmosphere here, and cleanliness as well. This place is a hidden gem within San Francisco. Definitely recommend going here especially if you are looking for a social gathering with people who love biking.

A perfect neighborhood park. Optimal for an outdoor lunch, or coffee and conversation with a friend, plus views. There's a large side area with tables and lawn that can contain multiple large groups for birthdays, etc. Don't know if this is part of the county system that allows table reservations. There are well maintained porta-potties, but as yet no permanent facilities with sinks, so bring wet naps.

Stumbled across the park. Unique and interesting. Will have to come back for another visit.

Poorly designed park. Benches are placed where there's no shade and in weird places. Not enough trees to provide any form of protection from the sun or wind. Seeing people bring tents and umbrellas is ridiculous.

One of the best things about working at UCSF Mission Bay campus is this view. Took this photo during my lunch break. Unbelievable serenity. Work? What work?

Launched our kayaks at this cove.
Then paddled to McCovey cove to enjoy the roar of the giants fans on opening day.

Cute neighborhood park with great views of the bay! Great place to watch the sunset with a cool industrial landscape. It’s quite small but has lots of space for dogs to run around.

One of the park at 3Rd street between Mariposa station.great for family and community.

City Government is planning to build a trail 24 miles from AT &T park all the way long to candle stick park.wait and see the new Development.

Great morning workout, come early to beat the sun and crowd.
Some stairs are steep, so watch your step as there are no railings. I recommend just going up the stairs and taking the trail down, I think it's safer, best that way.you will def have a good workout after 2 round trips.

It's nice. Quiet and secluded on the Eastern Shores of San Francisco. One of the last places in San Francisco you could go to and you will be the only person there in the middle of the day. While you have the opportjnity, go there and give it a shot. This area of San Francisco is being developed and will soon be like every other lost forgotten portal into yesteryear

I go here every evening with my dog.

It's a great place to go, plenty of space along the beach with calm waters, a lawn which has plenty of space to sit down and have a picnic with the family with a few benches.

On the other side there is a even bigger lawn, an actual picnic area with BBQS.

I love coming here, my only issue is people not complying with leash laws and blatinley ignoring the "keep your dogs on a leash" sign in 2 parts of this area, so if you do have a reactive dog or aren't wanting dog interactions be aware you will see many off leash dogs.
