What parents say

Koret Children’s Playground is such a delightful place for little ones! The moment we walked in, my kids were instantly drawn into all the exciting things there were to climb, slide, and discover. The play areas are creative and varied, making it feel like a mini world built just for young explorers.

This large playground for children is located inside Golden gate Park in San Francisco. There's plenty of free street parking within the park and on the streets. Just about a block away. Lots of fun things to do for kids. And, I think it is wheelchair accessible for disabled children too.

★★★★★ — Em, Jul 2022

Great big playground for kids. There is an exciting stone slide and indoor historical carousel around. No parking fee. It's a wonderful stop for kids to have some exercise when you are in the Golden Gate Park area.

★★★★★ — Shawn, Jan 2026

Such a great family spot. All ages welcomed. Lots of dogs running around. There isn't a parking lot and parking is tight but if you drive around enough you will find a park. Ton of grass areas and trees for shade.
