I have been to this park 4 times now and it’s been for an annual flag football game between the Sparrow Warriors (as in Cpt. Jack Sparrow) vs. the Viking Horde. This has been the site for what previously has been a pre-​Super Bowl flag football game between fully and authentically costumed Cpt. Jack Sparrows (that would be an entire team of them) playing flag football against the fully and authentically costumed Viking Horde (costumes provided by the Sword and the Stone in Burbank). Usually attendees are lots of pirates, pirate wenches, pirate cheerleaders, vikings of all sorts and there are generally celebrity players on the field.
This has been a great venue for this game each time! We just have to get the cup back from the Vikings next year!

I made an online reservation for the gazebo at the Orange Grove Park for my daughters birthday party. I payed $ 55 for a 4 hour rental from 2 – 6. We were lucky in that no one had rented the gazebo before us from 10 – 2 so we were able to set up early. While setting up there were a lot of parents and little kids on the grass field playing soccer and some using the playground.
Parking is kind of tricky because of all the soccer games going on so some of my guests had trouble finding parking spots. At around 3pm though most of the soccer players had left. Also, be mindful with the street signs since they ask for cars to curb their wheels or you may be ticketed.
When my reservation time kicked in at 2pm and my guests began to arrive I noticed that some young boys still walked in our reserved location and used the basketball court right next to us. They were oblivious to the fact that the gazebo was reserved and walked in and out as they pleased. We also had a random man walk in and ask for money and food.
On the plus side, the kids playground was helpful because it entertained the kids and we didn’t need to rent a moon bounce. The restrooms were right next door and that was convenient too. We had to pick up the restroom key the day before.
In general, the gazebo is a nice location for a kids birthday party but don’t expect others to respect your reserved spot. Also, if someone rents the space before you then you will have to wait until they have cleaned up to begin your own event. For us the cons (tricky parking, random strangers on the reserved premises) outweighed the pros, so we will not rent out this location in the future.

The park itself is fine, it is clean with decent restrooms.
I only write this review because I got a $ 45 parking ticket parking on Mission St because I didn’t curb my wheels! Sure, the sign said to do that, but the slope really wasn’t that much…

Great little park near the farmers market.
Truth is, I go here many Monday night for pick up soccer, as the lights can be turned on by anyone, but I noticed they also have a nice (and under-​used) playground and tennis courts. A lot of people also take advantage of the little baseball diamond there. I’ve also seen some pick-​up football. Only drawback to the park is its small, so if you’ve got a group that’s too big, its gonna get tight.
