My go-to, around the corner Park to take my dogs to everyday. Most of the time there's not many people there, maybe a basketball player and a couple of kids in the playground. Sometimes they have younger kids classes that come in to learn about gardening in the back community garden area. It can get a little busy and noisy with a lot of kids there at that time but it's a park you should expect the kids to be there being loud. But what's nice is they're not their 80% of the time and it's a relatively quiet small city park to spend some quiet time in. If you go to the back past the playground and basketball courts you'll find the winding path that goes down to the community garden where you can rent garden plots in case you don't have a yard where you live, you can still grow your own vegetables if you want. Like all parks in the city they close at dusk so if you're there after dark make sure you have a dog with you. I couldn't be happier living next to another Park. This park is the perfect size and the perfect amount of people most of the time I can't complain. Try it but don't tell many people about it cuz I'd like to keep it a somewhat quiet space.

I was born and raised in SF then relocated to Florida, Seminole Heights, eventually moved back to SF. I love all my parks raise my kids around them. Koshland Community Park is one of those park that just has it all. This park is my second favorite to Lafayette Park also in SF. Here you get a sense of safety and cleanliness every time when you visit. Cement staircase can be tricky at night saw couple of people getting trip up. Kids play area is graffiti free and drug paraphernalia free. Be careful when parking on the street and read when street cleaning is, it's not always early mornings some are 6-8am and 8-10am. I represent city by the bay district B-6, thank you.

I have been going to this park for years. I like it because it has paved, wondering, pathways. Wildlife in the shape of birds are comfortable there and recently the park service finished replanting the park with native, drought resistant plants. The park also features a play gym for children in addition to a basket ball court. But the jem of the park is the teaching garden. Here locals of the area plant crops or other plants which are then used to to teach kids at the elementary school up the street

My kids love this small playground and community garden. There's a basketball court next to a fenced in play space. The play equipment includes seesaws, a tire swing, two slides and climbing parts. Most of the ground area is sand. The community garden is below and my kids enjoy wandering around and looking at the flowers and plants. The compost area there does attract rodent friends, but it's easy to steer clear. Overall it's a great little neighborhood park with unique features.

I enjoyed this quiet little park with its play area for kids, shaded benches, nice views, long path of staircases and attached community garden during a recent visit to the Hayes Valley neighborhood. You can miss it if you are coming down Oak Street. All one see from the right in the middle of the block is a small gate with a panel of created ceramic art tiles and the foundation for a staircase. It is worth the excursion for a few minutes of peace and serenity.

Enclosed playground with great city views and lots of nature (birds, plants, trees) to take in within close proximity. I have found broken glass on multiple occasions as well as damaged playground equipment - not so bad to prevent me from going there, but SF Recs and Park can be slow to respond to requests for cleanup/repair. Better for 2.5+ years as equipment is too large / high off the ground for infants/toddlers

All the plants a one childs name on them, and a wish....many want a money tree, and get swiss chard or broccoli. Its beautiful and serene ...sort of three parks in one. When I went, there was a classical guitarist in the garden area. A yukele player in the middle park, and the play ground was Going off..first park from the street.

My four year old granddaughter enjoyed her experience here tremendously. It's a well situated playground with seesaw, tire swing, sand, multiple slides and step ladders. GREAT seating and picnic tables. Fantastic view of downtown skyline. There's a community garden we enjoyed walking through.

Went there to eat lunch the week past and the views were beautiful, amenities were as advertised but there was an infestation of rats running around the shrubbery surrounding the garden. Would not recommend

Small size park with a nice size playground for the kids. There is also a really cool and thriving community garden. Definitely take a stroll through the garden if you have time.

Never would have thought there’d be a great playground at this location but the play structure is great, there are great views, and it is always clean and friendly.

Just a great place to sit down and rest. Read a book or get updated on your phone or just explore the learning garden area. Very cool area to explore.

The back park to those who don't know.the garden .has fresh food like picture,collie. Greens.nice play structure.

Its really fun and its a good fotoshoot plase. I will recomend you to go and enjoy the playground and the garden

A nice little park hidden in the lower Haight. The community garden is a place to just be quiet.

Simple old-school playground that is under-used with a peaceful community garden next to it.

This would be a nice little park if people didn’t let their dogs run off leash everywhere.

It's a nice little neighborhood playground with a nice garden and a good view of Downtown.

Love this park, use to go here before they fixed it. My kids love this park near family.

I love coming here to look at Alameda it always has a nice breeze off of the water

One of the few places you can hear birds in the city! It's clean and safe for kids

A small slice of paradise tucked away in noisy crowded overpriced San Francisco.

The park is not crowded at all, but my kid fell, we left and never came back.

Great little park tucked into a cute nook in SF. Play structure and gardens.

I love the community garden in this park. Great place to sit and relax
