Lakewood Park

Lakewood Park is a spacious 10.7-acre public park located in Sunnyvale, California. Established in 1964, the park was originally designed with an outer space theme, though most of the thematic elements have been lost over time.

The park offers a diverse range of recreational facilities catering to various interests and age groups. It features multiple sports areas, including two ball fields, a basketball court, two tennis courts, and two handball or racquetball courts. For those interested in less structured activities, the park provides two horseshoe pits and a multi-use field.

Lakewood Park is also well-equipped for families and children, boasting two playgrounds and a water play area. The park includes several reservable picnic and barbecue sites, making it an ideal location for community gatherings and events. The largest picnic area can accommodate up to 150 people.

One of the park's unique features is its skateboard ramps, providing a dedicated space for skateboarding enthusiasts. Additionally, the park offers access to the John W. Christian Greenbelt pathway, extending recreational opportunities beyond the park's boundaries.

Lakewood Park's operating hours are from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, with basketball and tennis court lights remaining on until 10 p.m. This schedule allows for extended evening use of certain facilities.
