White Rock Community Park

Almost didn’t visit this park because of the reviews swaying it was a hang out for shady characters… It turned out to be fantastic! Life guards were super nice and attentive to the kids, lots of space to spread out and one of the life gaurds was so kind he let me use his chair! This was a highlight of our whole trip to Sacramento for my 7 year old and everyone was kind and courteous. Hope to make it back again.

The splash park was a big hit with my 3 kids. They had a blast especially because of the slides. My 4 year old was only able to go on the orange slide only (which is a minimum height requirement of 36″). I like that the area was gated off because it made me feel safer knowing my little one wouldn’t just take off. They do have employees working there, someone is taking the $ 1 for the slides and measures the kids and 2 other employees stand at the bottom of the slides monitoring the kids. I have no problem with this whatsoever. I even was up the majority of the time from my chair watching my kids and making sure they were following the rules. A lot of parents are sitting in their lawn chairs or underneath the shade in the picnic benches and they don’t pay attention to their kids. Some little girl pulled my daughter’s hair while they were in line for one of the slides and it made me happy to see one of the workers handle it. He asked the little girl to take him to her mom to tell her. Her mom was ghetto, with a bunch of kids that weren’t listening since they showed up. She kept trying to ask the workers if she could put her baby down the slide or in the water at the end of the slide and 2 workers told her no. That’s not allowed and why do you even have to ask 2 employees the same question after one of them already told you no. There was 1 worker, a male, who was really nice and a good employee. From the moment we walked in he checked us in and he measures all the kids even if they look tall enough for the slides. He put on band-​aids on kids that got hurt and he even fixed my kids friend goggles. My youngest who is 4 did have to be talked to a few times because he would keep going down the slide when other kids would and at one of the times he talked to him he grabbed him by the elbow which I did NOT like. I was watching the whole time making sure he wasn’t hurting him or grabbing hard, and I didn’t say anything to him except I got up to ask what had happened. And the guy was really nice and chill so I didn’t get upset or say anything but definitely next time we go here and I see the employees grab him by the arm or elbow I will have to say something. It’s different to hold their hand and put yourself at their eye level like he did with the other kids and with mine also but the grabbing of the elbow to me is not okay.
So overall the spray park was fun, the park it’s at is big and looks well maintained, I didn’t see any illegal activity like other people posted, but I did think the neighborhood surrounding the park and driving up to the park didn’t look the safest or nicest.
Definitely bring a canopy, umbrella, or those tents for parks because it was hot and VERY sunny! I felt like I was going to pass out at one point from sitting/​standing in the sun.

Great water park… But bad crowd.
Better to just drive 10 more mins to the Folsom Aquatic Center!!!

Splash park was not running and it didn’t have any information as to why! From the sign it should be open?!?

According to the website here are the splash park hours. Will update review after we check out the water.

Great park, nice walking areas to walk your dog. Music and activities are always fun here. Xmas is great here with tree lighting, rides, music, food. Great water area for kids to play in during summer.

I have had a great experience here. My kids loved it and most parents also joined in the fun. The life guard pay lots of attention to the kids and regulate there rules good times.

Summer Time Water Park is GREAT but…
We moved into the neighborhood a couple years ago and the park was just being built. We were extremely excited to see they had a GATED water park play-​area, 2 Full basketball courts, 2 full tennis courts, huge gazebo with ample sitting and BBQ pits and a new modern play area for the kids. But we were let down by the crowd it attracted.
The water park is FREE unless youd like to use the water slides which then its only $ 1.00 FYI
The negative points about this park is the local crowd it attracts. The fowl mouthed, pot smoking, PDA heavy crowd is extremely inappropriate around children so its why I give it its ratings.
I recommend this park as a strictly «stop and go» location. Stop for the kids to get wet and NOTHING else.

Awesome little water park for small children up to 9 years old. Older than that and it probably wouldn’t be too interesting

This place is fabulous for the kids on a hot day. Admission is free and it only costs $ 1 per child if they choose to play on the slides. If it is hot please keep in mind to bring your own shade and chairs too. There is a shaded cover with a few picnic tables but they were taken when we got in (early) so be proactive and just bring your own. The 3 kids we brought were ages 8, 10 12 and they were completely entertained for the first hour. I think younger kids could spend a few hours here with no boredom issues. There are height requirements for the slide but other than that everyone can play (yes.even parents). Fabulous cheap entertainment!

This park is gorgeous. The splash park is amazing. The people loitering all over the park… not so amazing. G.h.e.t.t.o! Drugs being sold in near the playground, people using their own bbqs and drinking all over the park. If the park can get some enforcement, it would be a safer place.
We still attend the splash park. It’s only $ 1 for the water slides. I had kids asking me for dollars… meh. Bring a cabana and chairs. There isn’t alot of shade, and where there is, you won’t want to sit next to the people sitting there. There was a woman in a pink bra top, jean shorts and cursive tattoos. If you do what we do, and keep to yourself, you’ll have fun. It’s a great park. The more non-​ghetto people who attend, the less it will be «the spot» in the hood.

This review is for the splash park.
What a fun and almost free way to beat the heat! It is ONE DOLLAR (each) for kids who meet the height requirement to ride the two slides. I didn’t see this on any website about the park that I read so keep this in mind. This place is so awesome for kids! The water pressure here is way intense than any other spray ground I’ve been; you will definitely get drenched. That yellow bucket throws down SO. MUCH. WATER! My child was too short to go on the slides but it looked fun. There is someone who monitors the slides, which is a nice touch.
There are restrooms and a playground close by. The park is spacious for kids to ride on their bikes and maybe even have a small soccer game if it’s not too crowded. There are trees spread sporadically through the park that you can sit under. Minus one star because they don’t have much in the shade and seating department. They have a few picnic tables and a few benches but bring your umbrellas and chairs/​mats/​towels and prepare to camp on the ground. We went on a Saturday afternoon and parking was decent. Street parking was easy to find.

I love the idea of the water parks for the kids. It’s a great idles and hope to see more of them pop up soon. This one has lifeguards on staff which is really nice.
A few things I didn’t like I’d that there really isn’t much seating and also there is a lot of illegal activity going on outside the fence of the park.

One of the places I most liked in White Rock Community Park is the large open space. The space is large, It’s really cool place to hang out.

This is a cool neighborhood park. The basketball courts are always being used and the pool looks nice (right now it’s fenced off and empty). They’ve got a a little sidewalk trail that goes through the park and a huge grassy field to let the dog go wild (on her leash, that is… yeah, on her leash!). I also like it because I’ve seen a lot of other pits being walked. Doggie likes other pits. Four woofs!
