Laurelhurst Picnic Grove

The shaded picnic grove has reservable sites and mature trees; reserve ahead for guaranteed group use or equipment beyond ordinary park rules.

Street parking surrounds the park; there is no large destination lot. Use the exact edge nearest the playground, picnic grove, courts, dog area, or lake and respect residential driveways.

The park is open 5:00 a.m.-10:30 p.m. Off-leash hours change by season, weekday, and weekend; reservations and volunteer events use separate schedules.

An accessible restroom is listed, along with accessible picnic facilities. Confirm location and seasonal availability before relying on it for a group visit.

General park, playground, paths, lake views, courts, and ordinary use are free. Reserved picnics, organized events, transportation, and external services may cost.

A paved path reaches the play area, which includes a ramp, transfer station, sensory play, and adapted high-back swing. Accessible restroom and picnic tables are listed.

Off-leash use is limited to the designated area and official seasonal time windows; dogs must be leashed elsewhere and kept out of the playground and sensitive pond edge.

The accessible playground, lawns, ducks and turtles, paths, picnic shade, and courts work well for families. Firwood Lake is for viewing, not swimming or wading.

The shaded picnic grove has reservable sites and mature trees; reserve ahead for guaranteed group use or equipment beyond ordinary park rules. Dog off-leash hours are easy to misunderstand and change seasonally. Duckweed on Firwood Lake is a monitored native plant condition, not a swimming invitation; keep children and pets out of the water.

Frequent eastside buses, biking, walking, rideshare, and street parking reach surrounding blocks. Select the edge closest to your activity to reduce unnecessary walking.
