Review & FAQ:

Golden Hill Recreation Center is an extension of San Diego's famed Balboa Park, owned and operated by the City of San Diego. The family-friendly park was privately financed and developed by area citizens before the primary development of Balboa Park, which has helped it retain its separate designation today, despite the fact that many of its original features vanished prior to the 1930s. Visitors can enjoy a variety of day-use amenities, including a children's playgrounds, tennis courts, ball fields, a gymnasium, and a number of public picnic table sites. The rustic and beautiful Golden Hill Fountain offers double rock stairways, radiating trails, and visitor benches, originally designed in 1907 by architect Henry Lord Gay and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
