Residents can find a nice green area to play in in the Eligio Ramirez Park, where there is a well-kept field, paved paths, and a recreational field. The park has a soccer field that's fenced-in, with open space surrounding the field and a perimeter walking trail. Dogs can play in the soccer field as long as no teams are playing, or enjoy additional features like covered picnic tables, two gazebos, a playground, restrooms, benches, water fountains, and trash bins.

The next unnamed park is on San Luis Lane and provides a larger area to run in, along with more trees and space, a soccer field, covered picnic tables, benches, and a perimeter trail to walk on. Dogs have to be on a leash inside both parks.
