5 reviews for Eagle Park
Yeah, I really don't know how you can rate a park less than 3 stars. I mean, it's a park! Did you expect Disneyland? Unless kids are throwing dog turd at your face (true story, and I'm pretty sure I'm not that ugly?), there really is no room for error.
I came here with my friend because we (maybe just her) got lost driving back to Palo Alto. We were walking her dog and its brother! (Shihtzu's.... so cute). Anyway, I guess the old mantra about dogs being chick magnets is modified when you yourself are walking dogs with another girl, because SO many moms came up to us with their babies to pet them. It really was a tender moment, and yes I am sensitive to these things. (Ladies, I also watch chick flicks. Only good ones like You've Got Mail and Definitely, Maybe)
Apparently the old Mountain View high school was here before it moved 30-odd years ago, and the mascot (Eagles) is retained as the name. Stupid trivia I pretened to care about just because it on the statue in front of the Community Center/Pool. There's also a relatively small playground that PACKED TO OVERFLOWING with babies, toddlers, moms and shiny pink strollers/other plastic baby objects.
Also a big open playing field, complete with awkward pre-teens "dating" there with a frisbee.
Dogs + babies + happiness - (acne ridden tweens) = 4 stars!

What a nice little park! Huge sports feild, a compact little playground and a pool facility that makes the Rengstroff facility look like a dump in comparison. This neighborhood park truly has something for everyone in its borders. With a changing area that is not quite so public, I think we'll be signing up for swimming lessons at Eagle Park from here on in!
Word of warning: parking is a challenge, especially on weekends!

I'm so happy to have this awesome park in my barrio. The playground area was recently improved. The bathrooms are always clean. I've never used the pool, but I've also never heard any complaints about it. I've been to a few birthday picnic parties at the picnic tables. And the very best part of all is the endless supply of poop bags for my little doggies! Eagle Park rocks.

One of the kids I nanny loves Eagle Park, but I can't see the appeal except that it has a pool. A day pass for swimming is at most $3.50 (non-resident adult). Otherwise, this is just a large, standard park bordered by busy Shoreline.
Eagle Park is a great park. Since they put in new play equipment, it is even better. It is a neighborhood park, so if I had to drive to it, I probably wouldn't go there. It is a good place to walk to and meet other people in my neighborhood. My kids play there nearly everyday.
You don't have to worry about squirrel attacks and it is easy to keep an eye on the kids because the park has a nice layout.
