Wicklund Park

With play structures designed by Berliner Seilfabrik and the best swings in Mountain House, Wicklund Park remains the go-​to park. The park features a gazebo, baseball field, a general grassy play area, and several playgrounds for children of various ages. It’s also near the Mountain House convenience store, a short walk away for a candy break for kids. Tall trees on the west can make getting a kite up difficult but with persistence, it can be done.

One of the most beautiful parks I’ve seen & kinda surprised it has its own Unilocal review! This place is located right in the middle of houses. The layout is so beautiful! I wish every home community had this. It’s seriously a great way for the neighborhood to come together. When I was there, you would see people on their bikes, grown elderly folks huddled together exchanging stories about their families & «the old days», see families running & playing on the grass. It was definitely a delight to see!
As soon as you drive into the street, you are welcomed by a huge gazebo! It was a beautiful structure! It’s surrounded by picnic tables & BBQ grills. There’s also plenty of grass space if you want to have multiple games running at the same time. There’s a play area for kids complete with the jungle gym. There’s plenty of shade & it’s honestly pretty breezy! When you think of Mountain House, you think of desert or heat. Haha. But this park is beautiful! There’s an elementary school right behind the park which is also huge. Parking is residential parking (of course). If it was closer, I would go often.

Wicklund Park is nice place to pass a weekday evening or Saturday afternoon. It has plenty of shade, several play structures for the littles, a gazebo for um gazebo-​ing in I guess. Overall nice pastoral location.

Located directly behind Wicklund Elementary School this Park was the first ever to be built in Mountain House.
This 5 acre Park includes a Baseball Diamond, Horseshoe Pits, Picnic tables and a couple of children’s play structures including Swings as well as a vast grassy area for Children to run around or have a game of Frisbee. The center of the park also has a well shaded Gazebo unlike any of the other Parks in Mountain House which makes it perfect in those hot Summer months when temperatures soar to over 100. Water fountains can also be found alongside the Gazebo too.
