Spring Outdoor Activities in our Community.

Amy Holsapple, Recreation Manager • March 21, 2024

Enjoy the sunshine and the great outdoors.

Our community is filled with amenities for people of all ages to enjoy. Look at all the opportunities to choose from, just a short drive or walk from your home.


Ramona Oaks Park


Our community park located at 25341 Pappas Road, is filled with fun and games for members and your guests.

Open Sunday - Saturday | 8 am - sundown


  • Kids Park in a gated area: A swing set for infants and young children, two play structures designed for many activities for fitness and learning: straight and winding slides, rock climbing walls, a tic-tac-toe game, a short hang-and-glide, and a balance game all create an engaging place for kids. Picnic tables are on site.
  • Corn Hole: Two sets of boards. Bring your own bags.
  • Gaga Ball:   Known as a kinder, gentler version of dodgeball, this game is played with a soft foam ball and combines dodging, striking, running, and jumping while trying to hit an opponent with the ball below the knees. More players means more fun. Bring your own ball.
  • Basketball Court:  Meet friends for a game of basketball. Bring your own ball.
  • Volleyball Court: One net, one sandy area to play and it’s like you’re at the beach right near your home. Bring your own ball.
  • Horseshoe Pits: Four pits built to tournament design specifications, located in an area with picnic tables and partial shade. Bring your own horseshoes.


Dog Parks


Dogs can play in designated fenced-in areas. A dog ‘watering hole,’ as the locals call it, is available. Remember to keep dogs on a leash when outside the fences.

Ramona Oaks Park | Two fenced-in areas are available, one for small dogs and one for large dogs.

Basset Park | Located on Basset Way between Scarbery and Spangler Peak. Two fenced-in areas are available, one for small dogs and one for large dogs.

Homeowner ID Card

Access to members into our swimming pools is available with your homeowner ID card (also known as a “pool pass”).

Family members aged 14 - 17 must be accompanied by the homeowner to obtain a pool card, and children 14 and under must be with their parent or guardian at the pool.
