Camarillo Grove Park

What a hidden gem. This is more than a park it houses a nature center, dog park, hands on learning for kids, hiking trails and more! We spent a morning hiking, playing on the playground, and enjoying all the hands-on educational exhibits.

You can even hear goats and see livestock near one of the hiking trails! The park is nice for toddlers and families.

There is an entrance fee of $3 on weekdays and $5 on weekends (bring cash). You can also buy a year pass for $55. After our visit today, I think we will invest in a year pass, so worth it. Can't wait to return.

Love this park. Multiple trails. They have plaques along the way that describe the history and native wildlife. The park is great for kids.

I love this park because it has some easy hiking trails and it's clean. I love the farm animals that "bahhhh" at you from the mountain when you're hiking and the cool rock to climb. Pretty chill spot! Easy hikes.

Beautiful, relaxing area. A good area to go walking, hiking and bring your dog. One of my favorite places to take my dog too.

Beautiful spot to bring your dogs or simple go for a walk or hike. My dog loved it and it was very relaxing. Plenty of hiking or walking trails, green grass, dog areas and even a small playground for children. You will need $3.00 for parking. It's all cash basis and no CC's :(

Such a cute little park, my dogs absolutely loved it! There wasn't a bunch of other pets when we came but they still loved and enjoyed the space. Recommend for a peaceful afternoon!

This park was a great find for my family. We needed a large space to hold a family gathering and Camarillo Grove Park fit the bill. Plenty of space, benches & trees. A playground for the kids and your little dog too. lol
The park was clean and so were the restrooms. $5 to park on the weekend.

I really was enjoying this park until the Forest Ranger came over and told me to leave because he was "closing up" even though the sun had not set! Think it was around 7:20pm or so - I was the only one there and had my dogs with me, along with a couple more that I was walking for a friend, since she just had a stroke and needed help with them. He told me he would allow it this time, but no one should be there with more than 3 dogs?!? Really?!?! Never saw any signs and all my dogs are REALLY well behaved and NO ONE else was in the park! Really?!?! Kind of ruined my early evening and I felt like I had to rush everyone into my car and hurry out-- for what reason?!? So he could close up early?? Too bad, because other than that, it really is a nice little park!

I really disgusting incident took place here involving the front desk man named Doug. When I tried to call the park service to report what happened the man who answered used slurs and told me to just not go back.

WARNING NOT SAFE FOR KIDS!

Camarillo has an abundance of beautiful parks and Camarillo Grove Park is definitely one of them. Dogs can run off-lease Monday-Friday and if you need an enclosed area for your pup, the large dog fenced in area is great with lots of shade from the live oaks, but all dirt. The small dog enclosed area doesn't have the shade that the large dog area has but it works for small dogs. The park is full of picnic tables, has trash cans throughout although the cans don't have lids and often trash is spread around, has 2 separate restroom buildings that are kept clean, a nice playground area and large areas for large parties. If you haven't gone yet, check it out you'll thank me.
