The Oaks

Big rock formations for early climbers, with steps carved into the stone up to a summit that looks out across the Bay.

The one with the secret staircases. Rock formations to scramble on and enough tucked-away corners that older kids will disappear for a while.

Taqueria next to a tot lot, with outdoor tables, sopes with mushrooms and fried plantains, and burritos that come close to feeding a whole family.

Build-your-own Korean rice bowls on Solano that hand out kid chopsticks, kid bowls, and little smoothies.

Neighborhood Chinese restaurant where Renee herself greets regulars of all ages.

An enclosed toddler area and a play pad for bigger kids, under big oaks with a seasonal creek running through and old stone fireplaces at the picnic spots.
