Eastshore Park

I have walked my dogs in the past. A very peaceful and serene place. I enjoy the fresh air. Most people with their dogs are on the leash. They are responsible for their dogs. I haven't been their in a while. So hopefully nothing has changed.

Green grass, blue sky, The Pergola, trellis, vines, diversity, kids, grandmas, drummers, slack line, yoga, Capoeira, the lake, shorebirds, all good in the Oakland hood

Great place to go running or have a picnic. The jogging/walking path is about 3.5 miles and goes all the way around the lake. Beautiful views, especially at sunset.

Any place where there are kids playing and having fun and responsible adults watching them, is a wonderful sight to behold. You also have a nice Grassfield where you can play soccer football baseball or just play catch or run around I recommend this place for anybody coming to visit Oakland.

FOR EVER PARENT WHO HAS BOYS, GIRLS ARE WELCOME TOO, ACCEPTING DONATIONS ONLY THO,
EVERY SINGLE FRIDAY AT 3PM TIL 5PM THEY HAVE BOXING TRAINING FOR KIDS ALL AGES. Your children receive Free boxing gloves too.

Especially women, we create life so come on out, I will be there. This class is also a fitness class for maybe an hour just pull up to this park and learn how to fight and get in shape

The playground is fine, but the real draw (at least for my kids) is the plethora of gnarled little trees that line the lakeshore here - perfect height for the pre-K set. Just keep them well-spotted, as there's a five foot drop down to the rocky shore of the lake.

Love that Lake Merritt! So many black and brown people. Made me feel like its home. And it was a chance to support my people!!!

My kids had a blast. My 3 yr was upset she had to leave. The place looks nice since they redid the playground.

Great place to be with kids and family nice outing venue if you are looking for some nearby places…

Its avery nice place to walk around.. On the side there is a park and a large field to walk the dogs or even to take a nice relaxing break on the grass.

We love this park. Park creates personal tie and meeting location.

Been going to Lake Merritt sense I was young, even in elementary going to Santa fe, my basketball team would have to run it. Now I smoke and chill there.

Oakland institution

Fun park but too crowded for my taste

Since 1964 has always admired the lake in the middle of town great walking path.

It was valentines night and they had fire dancers and cool dogs.. It was a nice night

The lake area in Oakland is the best.People really enjoy themselves and everyone seem to love the view and scenery .

beautiful park for hanging out. don't miss the weekly drum circle!

Love to go see my boy dummerboy Aaron on Saturday and take the kids to the park on Sundays

Dog park but great for walks and views of the SF Bay
