Caroline DengJanuary 17, 2016Used to come here a lot as a kid, and I highly recommend the concrete slide (bring cardboard to slide down) and the carousel! This is apparently the oldest public playground in the US.- Holger LüdorfAugust 25, 2011Massive playground in Golden Gate Park with tons of different play structures, a water/sand area and a great, albeit slightly dangerous concrete slide (use cardboards to slide).
Jennifer WongSeptember 2, 2013Large playground with large climbing structures, cement slide (bring a cardboard box) and sand play areas. Open space with a carousel and food stand and some shady area on the perimeter. Kids love it!
be sure to bring a spare change of clothes on a hot day! splash around and enjoy the water feature while soaking in some rays in a really lovely playground.
Matthew TraubFebruary 15, 2015If you forget cardboard there's usually a graveyard of scraps at the bottom of the concrete slides.
Parents MagazineJuly 18, 2011Koret’s Children’s Quarter has areas for every age – even for babies – plus a carousel. Established in the 1880s, Koret’s is thought to be the first public playground in the country.
Treena McCoyJuly 25, 2011Great park - slides, rope mountain, carousel. One of the best parks for kids I have been to.- Check out the awesome concrete slides while locals drum a beat in the park. www.enrout.com
Don't forget to bring boxes for you and your kid(s) to use on the concrete slide!
Paul SnowJune 5, 2010Visit the oldest playground in the nation and - in my kids' opinion - one of the best.
- Fun fact: This is the oldest public playground in the United States.
