Lakeview Park

My cross country team runs here and some walkers don't know general trails rules but that's ok. Nice place to run and easy access to Double Peak (if you're looking for some elevation). Sadly I'm not allowed on the playground, though. 5 stars.

A hidden gem. Kids love to play in the play area and the views from the lake and hiking trails are so relaxing and beautiful. We love it here. Photos by Sandra Yvette Photography.

Good place on Discovery Lake in San Marcos.. Children love to play. Space for making fun with friends, enjoying outing and having a small party with family. Lake side view is wonderful with many ducks wandering all over the lake.

Enjoy walking around the lake. Trail is an easy walk on level ground, fishing with license, dock, benches, lots of wildlife. Native plants, clean, well maintained. There are other trails that are moderate to difficult, great for jogging and running. Park area has green space, nice large play structures, and a water feature for the kids. Parking in lot and street parking. A jewel of a park in San Marcos, CA.

Very nice neighborhood and location. Solid play structure and a cool fountain that goes off starting at 11am, almost hourly (see screen shot for actual schedule)
The fountain fills a small area where kids can get their feet wet and splash around a bit, which is perfect on a nice hot day. Only thing lacking here was a good swing set.
