Larsen Playground (Carl Larsen Park)
About This Spot
A real neighborhood park on Vicente between 19th and 20th — playground with Tot Lot for little ones and bigger equipment for school-age kids. Baseball diamond, Charlie Sava Pool next door, and the Parkside Library across the street. SF Tots Soccer runs classes here. Feels like a small-town park in the middle of the city.
What to Expect
Parent Tips
The Tot Lot is great for under-3s with age-appropriate equipment. Charlie Sava Pool is right next door if you want to combine playground and swimming. Parkside Library across the street has great kids' story times. Free street parking is usually easy to find on Vicente.

Family Reviews
"This is our everyday park. Tot Lot for the little one, baseball field for the big one, and the library is right there for story time. It's our trifecta."

"SF Tots Soccer here on Saturday mornings is adorable chaos. Then we hit the playground after. Whole morning sorted."
— Parkside parent
"Feels like a real neighborhood park, not a tourist destination. You'll see the same families here every afternoon. My kids know everyone."
