Sarah Leydon: Great park! Spent hours there with the kids. They have a toddler water feature and a brand new play ground! More renovations are set to be put in place. Always clean, no homeless, great parking, awesome baseball fields. The basketball court needs to be renovated, i believe that is part of the upgrade plans. There are also a few places to barbeque. A great place to have a party or get together!
Kenoyer Jerod (JRod): This was my first time to Black Butte lake. This day we were at the main spillway overlook and checked out a few of the camp grounds. On the Orland Buttes side they have a huge group area that had horseshoe pits, large gazebo with a large BBQ area. Bathrooms with what look like shower. And plenty of space for everyone. Oh yeah! They also had a playground for the littles in that group site.
This whole area looks pretty awesome, especially when the water is full. If you dont like heat I would suggest camping spring or early fall.
S Romo: I went to do the hike and drove up to the dam. Very pretty in March. The weather was perfect for this visit and it wasnt too busy. I thought this area was beautiful!
Ann Salisbury: This place is great! Not too far from the city of Sacramento by car. A great place for bird watching and photography. Some small hiking paths and a visitors center. Its $6 for the auto tour only but you can get an annual pass for $12. A worthwhile service of the federal government and a place worth protecting.
Jesse White: Great addition to your admission price to the zoo. Really get a birds eye view of the black bears as you traverse new heights in the red woods. Luckily we visited on a quieter week day as I could see this being rough with crowds. Beautiful and well worth the visit and rating as best in the US.
Rebecca Aires: Very cool! They don’t require that you pay to visit but they ask if you can give them a $5 donation if possible. Guy at the front desk desk was lovely and very helpful! Museum had a lot of interesting info about the city and surrounding area. Loved it!
Angel Tun: This is charming coastal town . Eureka is well-known for its preserved Victorian architecture. I spent my time browsing Eurekas old town, home to various wonderful shops and restaurants. Cute little old town .
Chrissy H: The Sequoia Park Zoo is such a great little zoo thats perfect for any age! We spent about three hours here and also walked on the Redwood Sky Walk. They have a lot of great and unique animals to view which made for an interesting and educational trip.
The Sky Walk was absolutely phenomenal! We really enjoyed learning as we walked along the redwood trees, suspended in the air.
I like all of the educational pieces they have throughout the zoo and we all learned a lot.
The cafe offers lots of food options and even delicious cookies and ice cream.
There is no parking lot here so be mindful that you will have to park on the street in the surrounding neighborhoods but its free so thats great.
