🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for Montebello-area families wanting a low-key free outing with BBQ and playground access in a visibly secure setting. Young to school-age children get the most from the playground and open grass. Bring your own food and drinks — no vendors on site. Confirm swing access is open before bringing children who specifically want that.

This small park next to Montebello City Hall is very pleasant place to have a barbecue or picnic. It has a few barbecue stands and picnic tables. A nice children's playground and a grass field to play catch or Frisbee. There are a few large trees to provide shade. A public bathroom is available. Parking is street only but there is plenty of parking.

Love this Park. I bring my kids here. Just sad that the swings are locked up with a pad lock and restrooms are closed because of "Covid"...I thought covid was airborne and wasn't on surfaces 🤔 Anyways, The Montebello police station is next to the park and the park has cameras which seems safe for kids. Walking distance to various food places

Great for playing volleyball, kids enjoyed playing in the playground. Restrooms were fully stocked even hand soap and plus… only thing we kinda notice was a man and woman just looking and driving around, perhaps it’s just me but as a father I feel it, anyways be careful with these people. Great park
