Poinsettia Park in Carlsbad is a beautiful, big, and spacious park. It is clean and has a scenic walking trail. The playground is beautiful, colorful, and different from most, with little hills to climb. There is a special dog park, making it very dog-friendly. The park has plenty of fields for soccer, baseball, football, and tennis. It offers many picnic areas all over and is perfect for family outings, play, or to relax.
It's a nicely laid out Park but definitely getting overrun by e-bikes. I've been here when there's so many it affects vehicular traffic, as well as foot traffic through the park.
