Best Park in Encinitas, Cottonwood Creek Park

Once again as I look around, I can not express enough my thankfulness for the GREAT country and bringing it closer to home, the city I live in. I absolutly love Encinitas. One of my favorite places to go in this great community is Cottonwood Creek Park. Located at the corner of Encinitas Blvd and Vulcan Ave. Aside from the fact that it is one of the only parks in Encinitas that has bathrooms (a big plus if you are bringing the little ones with you) Not to mention the great water features the kids can play in (be sure to bring the kids bathing suits and towels) climbing rock, and a play structure that would make Disney proud. Along with tennis and basketball courts. To add to all the great modern day features of Cottonwood Creek Park it also has a rich history in the Encinitas community as the first "watering hole" to the early settlers of Encinitas. Walk around and read the info signs. You then can roam the vast rolling grassy hills and plenty of room for picnic's, that brigs me to one of the best places for picking up your picnic
lunch. Is the Beachside Bar and Grill located at 808 S Coast Hwy 101. Sandwiches run in the $8 range and are made on fresh baked bread. Hands down the best penne sandwiches you will ever have.
Pick up a sandwich and enjoy a picnic at Cottonwood Creek Park!
