1 / 3Montrose Community Park
📍 Montecito Park, CA
Montrose Community Park combines playgrounds, baseball and softball fields, pickleball courts, and undeveloped hiking trails in a well-lit, paved-path setting. Dog-friendly with poop bag dispensers on-site. Free parking off Clifton Place.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for active families who want multiple options in one stop - playground time, a casual hit on the tennis or pickleball courts, and a dog-friendly trail walk. Weekday visits are noticeably quieter. Families with toddlers should do a quick scan of the playground area on busy weekends, as some visitors have flagged litter as a recurring concern.

“Great park with playgrounds and ball fields, but also an undeveloped section with a few short trails where you can take your dog on a little hike. Poop bag dispensers available”

“In the past few months I noticed a lot of trash all over the park. Especially in the kids playground. It's a hazard for small children that like to put things in their mouth. There's also a lot of dog poop on the grass, which I try to avoid but couldn't this time 😢.”

“Situated in the Montrose section of Glendale this is a large well lit spacious park with fields for baseball and softball and pickleball courts, parking is available off of Clifton place but is a small lot and fills up fast additional parking can be found off if verdygoi road.”
💬 What parents mention
Overview
The park's paved main path links baseball fields near Verdugo Road to a central playground, tennis courts, and a half basketball court. An undeveloped section with short natural trails is popular with dog walkers. Good lighting throughout makes evening visits practical. A secondary parking area on Verdugo Road serves overflow when the main Clifton Place lot fills. The park is community-maintained and sees heavy weekend use.
