La Mirada Community Regional Park
La Mirada Community Regional Park is one of the most beautiful parks in Los Angeles County Parks. This 100-acre parcel of magnificently groomed land, purchased by the County of Los Angeles in 1956, has an 18-hole golf course surrounded by rolling hills and lush trees and is affectionately known as “The Grove” by the surrounding neighborhood. La Mirada Community Regional Park is also home to some of Southern California’s most famous adult softball leagues. The park’s 27-hole disc golf course is regarded as one of the best in the country and hosts professional tournaments on a regular basis.

The 18-acre park features a year-round competitive area with a 25-yard heated teaching pool, a 50-meter pool, and a warm water spa. The Buccaneer Bay waterpark, which is accessible throughout the summer months, is located in the family fun area and includes a lazy river, two-story water slides, tiny tot slides and play area, splash zones, and plenty of sitting and shade places.
Fishing Lake
The California DFG supplies the little urban lake with rainbow trout and catfish. Every year in the fall, there is also a kid’s catfish derby. Bluegill, largemouth bass, crappie, and carp are also present.
Children’s Playgrounds
There are two play areas in the park. The first, nearest to the parking lot, offers numerous opportunities to climb, swing, and slide. The second, located behind the tennis courts, contains a variety of climbing and interactive activities for older children as well as engaging attractions for younger children.

Parties, reunions, and other group gatherings can be accommodated in two big group picnic shelter locations.
