Frog Park

Nice park, but it gets really crowded on the weekends. Some of the structures make it hard to spot your teetering littles, but overall it's a much better use of real estate under the highway, which normally would be filled with not so family-friendly people and stuff.

Had heard so much about frog park. People kept raving about it and pics looked good. I have been on the hunt for a good clean park with a nice playground and clean toilets for my daughter's upcoming bday party. But as soon as we landed I didn't like it :( I really wanted to love the idea of frog park and I love that they are using this area for a good purpose but it's right below the highway and it sucks because of so much noise it creates :( I don't know but my idea of children's park is in a quiet area with lots of greenery for them to enjoy.

Frog park has some decent space a nice wood chipped playground and 1 decent bathroom. But that's about it. I don't feel good about coming here for a casual day or a party. I wish Oakland had more amazing parks such as Berkeley has. Sad :'(

Frog Park is hiding in plain sight under Highway 24. there's not much happening here. it's for the kids and the dogs(park adjacent to Frog Park). others may find this place pathetic. it's an innovative use of land that's not commercially viable.

amendities: play area (swings, slides) for young kids. slide are for older kids, olde trees, benches, grass area. just street parking. many strollers noticed, obviously from the surrounding neighborhood.

The park structure and toys for children are great, lots to do that challenge your kiddo's body in different ways. The only complaint which knocked two stars off, is the lack of child supervision. There were children running over and grabbing my children or toys she was playing with, lots of close calls with wobblers under swings, and wandering children crying. I notice many adults were busy on their phones and missing a lot of important child interactions that could have allowed the children to learn better socialization skills. I don't think I'll come back with a toddler but the park itself is beautiful and engaging. This review is based on a summer, weekday visit.

Something to know is there are two locations, Hardy and Redondo. Their website says Redondo is for little kids, so that's where I ended up. I've heard a lot about Frog Park and I was really surprised that it was empty. Then I saw the homeless tent just to the side. One of play structures was stuffed with stuff. I thought maybe the homeless person was using it for storage until a cell phone rang from inside and someone answered. This park isn't big enough for my kid to not run into the occupants. This park looks abandoned by the neighborhood. Now I know why.

I absolutely love this park. Always tons of families and kids. Friendly people. Lots to do. Grandkids love coming here!

Commenting on the park. We learned about it through a nanny who briefly cared for our child and regularly took her here to play. Once I visited, I was disgusted with the state of the park. The play area is small and the equipment appears to be poorly maintained. Additionally, there is an encampment of unhoused people abutting the park. I understand that the entire area has a terrible infestation of large rats, which is not surprising given the location. I think there are better alternatives nearby.

Cute park in Rockridge for little ones. Has a nice shady area with benches and tables, and parking is easy. Kept my 3 year old busy for an hour.

Part of the playground is a bit outdated, and the bathroom is a little gross, hence the 4 rather than 5 stars.

I love this park! I will definitely be returning with my three year old and my English Bulldog. So nice having a dog park and playground so close together. Looks like people donate their toys to the playground which is a nice treat too.

Very cool place for kids or pets. I would highly recommend especially for anyone with youngsters

Hidden park shaded in the trees. Parking off of Claremont could be a bit crowded, but there are other streets that offer better parking.

3 slides, easy steps for little ones, and activities for older ones (cobwebs, monkey bars).

Glad we found this park!
