Vasona Park

Oak Meadow Park and Vasona Park are next door neighbors, located on the Los Gatos Creek in  Los Gatos, CA.  It's located 51 miles south of San Francisco, and 10 miles Southwest of San Jose, right off the the 85 Freeway.

There's lots to like about this park.  The creek is wonderful, the Vasona Resevoir and the pedestrian bridge that crosses it, tons of resident ducks and geese, as well as a breeding colony of Blue Herons that nest there in the late winter.  The playground equipment for the kids and the meadows you can rent for larger groups.  It's all wonderful, but of all of it our favorite feature of the park is the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad.
