The scenery makes the park. Located across the street from San Francisco's historic Victorian Painted Ladies is a small playground with tons of character. The equipment is decorated like the Victorian Row Houses. The park offers wonderful photo opportunities of San Francisco.

This is an adorable playground with a row house design. The playground is fully fenced. The actual equipment is fairly typical of most playgrounds, but the location is ideal. This equipment is for children ages 2-5 years.

There is 1 table outside of the playground area. There is a great field to lay a blanket down and have a picnic across from the Painted Ladies.
There are sidewalks around the park. The city and Victorian homes provide excellent scenery.
This park is somewhat well maintained. It could have been a bit cleaner.
The restrooms are decently clean.
There is a water fountain on a pole outside of the playground.
Good luck. It can be tricky to find street parking in this area since this is a high traffic area. It is free parking though.
