1 / 3Holly Park
đ Hawthorne, CA
Well-equipped Hawthorne park with three baseball fields, basketball and tennis courts, a kiddie pool, playground, and walking track with workout stations. Free entry and parking. Steady traffic noise from Van Ness Avenue.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for sports-focused families with school-age kids, Little League teams, and groups planning picnics with reserved areas. The range of facilities handles mixed-age gatherings well. Families seeking a quiet park or prioritising leisurely walks will find the traffic noise disruptive.

âNice small park. I've visited this park twice. Once on a Sunday at 4:00 pm and once during the week at 3:30 pm. The times I visited, this park had a constant level of noise. The noise from the steady stream of cars driving on Van Ness revving their engines, cars and motorcycles driving by playing very loud music, and there must be an airport nearby. In 30 minutes three small planes flew overhead. It's not a quiet park. The park itself is nice. It has one large picnic area where you can make reservations if you have a large group. Very nice children's area and lots of seating and benches throughout. I visit parks to walk my dogs and this park really does not have a walking path. It does have three very large grassy fields for sports which are well maintained and open to everyone. The paths inside the park are pretty but they just take you to a certain area like a path to the children's play area. The one path that is a circle is a dirt path around one of the fields. The front of this path is on Van Ness, lots of traffic and the right side of the path is next to an old set of railroad tracks. The area is fenced off, but your view is trash. The next two turns on the path are inside the park so these are nice. I wasn't in love with the walking path, but I was able to walk my dogs in one of the grassy fields at the very back. If you are going to this park for a picnic, to play in one of the fields, sit on one of the benches, the children's play area, you may find the park very enjoyable. If you are going to use the walking path, I would pass. Also my visit on Sunday afternoon there was a large group in the picnic area that started fighting. I immediately left. This fighting may have been a one time event by attendees using the picnic area. Otherwise it's a nice park if you don't mind the background noise.â

Overview
Holly Park covers multiple sports facilities - three baseball fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, a walking track with workout equipment, a playground, and a seasonal kiddie pool. Free entry and typically easy parking make it a go-to for Little League games and large group picnics. The park sits adjacent to Van Ness Avenue, so traffic noise is a constant presence.
