Micke Grove Park

Very disappointed in the zoo. Wasted $ 16.00 most cages were empty,

Five dollars for a full day of fun. We take my son here and he has a blast! The park is well landscaped and has many shady areas that are great places to picnic. They have multiple large play areas, climbing areas, ponds, Japanese Tea garden, picnic benches and sitting areas. They also have many horseshoe pits and disc golf course. My son and many people seem to enjoy the water area the most. The kids push a button and water comes up from the ground. Along with the zoo this a good place to spend 4 – 5 hours. There are a few great places you can take pictures for family reunions or get togethers.

Great park! There’s a lot to do for everybody — a Japanese Garden for a nice little calming stroll, a zoo, picnic areas for parties, a kid’s area, playgrounds, and an area with water fountains where kids can splash around.

If you use this location for a party do not rent from funworks event and party rentals Ben though they have insurance through the park. They are horrible, their stuff broke and they picked it all up 3 hrs early and the park people know them and don’t care.

Great park and a must see Japanese garden. Great for any occasion. Part of San Joaquin richest historical places and the zoo is a great one for nor cal oh I almost forgot it’s very nice full golf course if you love golfing don’t skip this one up! !!!

Have you ever wondered about that large dense grove of trees to the west of 99 just south of Lodi? This is it.
Micke Grove Park is quite removed from the rest of life. It’s halfway between Stockton and Lodi, and you drive down two rural roads to get here. Then you pay to get in, and the entire street is a No Parking zone so you can’t just walk in. Bottom line, this is not your run-​of-​the-​mill neighborhood park. It’s meant to be a destination.
And here’s what you have: Playground with a *very* tall climbing structure. History museum. Japanese Tea Garden. Ball fields. Zoo. Pavilion for big group picnics and barbecues. Permanent carnival. And, most important of all, old, tall, huge oak trees that offer the most shade in this part of the Central Valley.
We occasionally went there as a kid, and I once had a romantic getaway with my hunny during a weekday and no one else in the whole big park. If I lived closer, it’s a place that I’d go to for a big outing — kids goofoff time, several house churches get together, family reunion, field trip to the zoo. It’s that kind of place.
Docked one star for the admission fee. On the other hand, how else would they pay for the upkeep?

Stockton parks can be filled with many surprises. Some good and bad from people who don’t respect public places or people. With the gate fee and being miles from town it creates a calm and fun filled experience for kids and adults alike.

A great treasure in such an unexpected area. They have a little zoo which is really cool an then there’s all the playground areas an the Japanese tea garden. There’s a golf course too but that’s not really my thing. They have a place called fun. Town right next to the zoo. That place is really cool. Its a read gem of a find. They have all kinds of rides for a really cheap price. Its a small place but the fun sure isn’t small. I think I went on at least 8 rides. It was lots of fun. Fun town is probably the funnest little town there is. I hope alot of people come an support this business.

This park is a real treasure. I have such fond childhood memories of this scenic spot and, at one time, knew every square inch of its grounds.
As an adult, the fond memories continue! This is our go-​to spot for large family gatherings and celebrations. The expansive, shaded park is the perfect location to grill some burgers and throw a frisbee around.
Lots for the kids to do as well… the zoo, the kiddie rides, playgrounds, water park. Good times will be had by all!

$ 5 park entry fee on weekdays, $ 6 on non holiday weekends
Very well kept park with an abundant amount of picnic tables and green grass. There is also a Japanese tea garden, a small zoo, and a small amusement park for kids. Good place for a wedding, family reunion, or just a fun day. The cost to enter the park helps maintain the facilities I guess and they did a good job. I wouldnt mind coming back here on nice sunny day.

I just love what they’ve done to this place! Beautiful landscaping. Not far from large cities. Rental prices are decent. The new water features are spectacular. Oh the restrooms are clean, that’s a huge plus. More memories to come from this place!

this San Joaquin County owned and operated park is truly magical. It is! So much to see, so many wonderful valley oaks to enjoy, so many venues to enjoy and all for such a reasonable price. It’s a place where you can go and spend the day and really not run out of things to do, see or experience.
Fun Town, a must do. Japanese Tea Garden, a must do. The Zoo a must do too! Golf, picnic facilities, awesome playgrounds and acres and acres of green grass and giant oaks shading you from the valley heat.
