2 reviews for Live Oak Park
*sigh*
The park of my childhood. It's an old park covered in old oaks. It's not cool like a suburban park since Fallbrook is rather rural and hilly, so this park doesn't have the luxury of being necessarily flat or all the cool modern amenities.
But, there really cool nooks and crannies where you can just camp out to spend the day under the trees (among other things, but you didn't hear that from me). Given all the trees, it's great for pinatas.
Mind you, this park gets hopping too on major holidays so parking can be a bitch.

This park is a beautiful representation of Fallbrook. First off, it's a historical site on which local Indian populations often settled to gather and grind acorns- you can find various boulders covered in indentations created by their use as a mortar. Later the park was settled in by some of the first people to inhabit the inland North County area (the Reche family) back in the early 1800's (I believe.) The trees are beautiful and very old, some are covered in thousands of holes created by woodpeckers for winter storage of acorns. Live Oak Park is quite the hot spot on weekends and holidays, but if you don't mind a multilingual chorus of 'Happy Birthday' and lots of people, it's still rather pleasant. Great place to walk your dogs or children- just be sure to keep them on a leash (dogs, not children... unless your child has a habit of pooping on the grass, in which case a leash would be advisable), the rangers are tyrants. During the non-summer months a little creek runs through the property which attracts ducks. All-in-all by far the best park in Fallbrook, perhaps all of North County.
