Santa Ynez Park

Google does not know how to get you to this park! But once, you figure it out, it’s pretty easy. Make sure you approach it from Edison Street and you’ll be just fine. Thank goodness Santa Ynez is so small :-)
This park allows booze — a very important fact you should know! We decided to have our rehearsal picnic here the night before our wedding. I called the county and they said that if I for sure wanted the picnic tables I could make a reservation, but since Friday evening is a slow time for them I decided to chance it and it worked out just fine. We got here earlier in the day to stake our claim on the tables, and received no one who tried to sit there. I would imagine if you were trying to do the same on a weekend though, you might want to reserve the area. It’s a small park but very clean, fenced, and has a playground for the kiddos. Great park!
Park closes at sundown.

Beautiful unused park. As tourists to the wine area we took the gamble and it paid off. The Unilocal address via GPS spits you out at the wrong address but find cuentos street and eventually you’ll get to the park. Unfortunately it gets even trickier as the entrance is only for handicapped so you have to go all the way around and come back at cuentos on the other side. You ll see a sign then. Really beautiful park with a volleyball court, we had it all to ourselves and let dogs off the leash the entire time. A must-​see but. take a bottle of wine!
Also if you have kids they do have a regular children’s playground as well.
