Jacob Myers Park - Riverbank, California

The park is fine if you have small children, it has access to the river and it is not very deep, maybe 6 feet at the deepest part. It has a green area and plenty of shade for a picnic, and for adventure lovers there is also a kayak access ramp. For non-residents of Riverbank the entrance to the park costs 10 dollars. The downside is that there is only one bathroom at the entrance of the park, you have to bring insect repellent.

Was at the Dog Park on Thursday. One of the employees notified me they close the dog park at 5:30. I left exactly at 5:30 and no one came to lock the dog park and do a check around the trail area like they usually do. Instead I get to the exit gate and find out they locked me inside.

Called the police non emergency line to see how I can get out.. I had 3 of my dogs with me and it was already dark outside at this time. Police were helpful and got a hold of the employee working at the park.

She came to the gate to open it but demanded $50 in cash before letting me out. I didn’t have any cash so I offered it via Venmo or Debit and she refused and demanded cash. She let me out as a one time courtesy after pleading with her that I didn’t have $50 on me.

Are we really endangering people who visit a park to let their dogs play so you can extort them for money after locking them inside?

Great park! The playground is awesome for the kids. Restrooms are close by. Love the trail, either walking or bike riding it's great for river views. And you can cool off in the river. It does have a current, but it's really low, so it makes it great for the kids to enjoy

Great park with an entrance to the river. Great place to bring tubes and rafts to float down with family. I do not recommend using the rope swing unless you know what you are doing

I will always hold JMP in my heart. Playing here as a child, my children and now grandchildren. Seeing the missile, my brother, sister, and I used to climb up and slide down warms heart. The river is always inviting and clean. This park is well maintained, there are campsites available. The paved path makes it easy to walk, ride, and take the stroller on. The added dog area is pretty cool, nice, and green and keeps the dogs separate for people on the path. There are so many fun, fond memories here with my whole family and more to come!

Me and my wife explored the river and the park and was very tidy. This park is a must go to relax

My first time here was a last minute idea to get the kids out the house. Parking was ten dollars. There were a lot of trees for some shade and the water is shallow so I wasn’t worried about the kids traveling across without life jackets. I will be coming back to have another picnic or barbecue next time.

As always this place never disappoint us,lots of table & shade for a picnic,birthdays or other gatherings. For any riverbank residents you pay $7, non residents $10. Got here early so we were able to get a good spot by the water. This time around we brought our 2 dogs, my English bulldog enjoyed the cold water so did the family. Saw alot of people float down the river & some float with their kayaks as well too.
