Jessamyn West Park

Its a nice dog friendly park. The area is safe for kids to play in however it’s literally right by a major road and cars are always speeding by so keep an eye out. The basketball and volleyball courts get rowdy sometimes, but it’s usually not a problem. It’s quiet in the morning, perfect for yoga or reading. It gets rowdy as the day progresses.

Nice neighborhood park not very many amenities. Good place to read or do some light exercise.

Came over here with my lil guy for some playground time. I instantly noticed that this is a pet friendly park so I immediately had to keep my toddler away from rolling around in the grass areas.
The playground is nice, I was little bummed seeing a few cigarette butts in the wood chip area near the swings, so be alert.
If you are a dog owner looking for a place to walk your dog then this is the place, they have a cool dog run area as well.
If you have a kid that is still at a age that you have to shadow them, then I recommend a different park, since you don’t want them rolling around in the doggie grass, and you don’t want to see them pulling up ciggie butts when they reach down at the wood chips. I’m not an anti smoker but you shouldn’t be allowed to smoke near a playground!

Nice little park. Close to a major street though. Make sure you keep an eye on the little ones running around.

I’m taking away one star for the bathrooms. They are gross! If you want poop logs and pee in in the dirty toilets, used crumpled toilet paper all over the floor, and NO SOAP in the soap dispensers or paper towels, then by all means use the restrooms at this park. If that’s not your cup of tea, HOLD IT or use the bushes. The men’s room is the same way, per my husband. MINUS ONE STAR FOR NEGLECTED BATHROOMS. UNACCEPTABLE.

Quaint park in the middle of suburban Yorba Linda. Dog friendly with a cute, sponge-​floored playground. Nice for an evening stroll or a picnic.
Basketball courts, restroom facilities, grilling area & playground with swing set.

I’ve played an abundance of my outdoor basketball at this park, so it served as a retreat from the everyday muddle of suburban life as an adolescent to young adult.
The facilities are okay at best — there is a restroom that always seems to smell like long overdue bowel release, and I’m pretty sure the water fountain outside of it serves us some sanitary toilet water. Though, I might be wrong about that.
This is a family park, so I guess I understand the vast landscape of wasted grass area that never seems to be used. I do see children do flag football practices here though.
I’m not sure who engineered the design of the basketball court area, but I don’t think they thought about how intrusive and destructive a sand filled volleyball court can be next to a basketball court where 5 on 5 games are being run.
The biggest problem I have with the park is that NJB or YLB practices get held here when there is only one and a half basketball courts. There are actually a couple of middle schools called Travis Ranch and Bernardo Yorba, both of which are located within a 5 mile radius and hosts multiple basketball courts at their respective playgrounds. I think those areas are better suited for young teams to practice. When there are 15 – 20 people wanting to play a 5 on 5 game, it can be a bit frustrating when these middle-​aged coaches become unreasonable about their children who probably won’t succeed as actual NBA professionals.
The light system also seems unreliable — sometimes the lights shut off when the «red light» hasn’t actually been lit, disallowing an issued warning. These lights also shut off at 10 p.m. which seems a bit early. It would probably be safer if the lights were on longer, so that people aren’t harmed by predators.
Overall, my experience with Jessamyn West Park has been pretty good, but that is due to the games and people, not the park itself, which isn’t as reliable.

This is another great park in the City of Yorba Linda. They have alot of great facilities at this location:
1 full size basketball court
1 half size basketball court
1 full size sand volleyball court
1 giant jungle gym/​playground for children
1 set of swings
1 baseball diamond
2 soccer fields
1 giant covered picnic area
parking lot
free standing bathroom facility
Everything is well kept and maintained properly. Their are lights for the basketball and volleyball courts. This park is also located on Yorba Linda blvd providing easy access. Be aware of your kids here as the eastern end has a steep hill that a child could fall on and roll down a hundred feet or so…
