Terra Linda Community Center and Pool

A family-run Italian favorite with friendly staff and coloring to keep kids at the table. Old-school red-sauce comfort.

Home to a button-activated splash pad, plus a playground, amphitheater seating and grassy hills for rolling down.

A spacious, fast-casual taqueria; quick and low-stress with toddlers in tow.

A shady park with a fenced tot lot, a big-kid play area, BBQs and lawns, and the Marinwood Pool with its water slide and baby pool right next door.

A practical base with quick freeway access to the city and to wine country.
