Los Osos Community Park

Description

Los Osos Community Park has a huge, new skate park that is a blast for kids. Younger kids can stand above the skate park and watch the action through a fence, which is a lot of fun for them too. On the grassy slope above the skate park there's also a cute one-room schoolhouse, which dates back to 1872. When it was moved from its former location, love notes and pages from school readers were found hidden in its walls! When we were there, a group of people were setting up for a baby shower to be held in the schoolhouse- that must have been an adorable party.
Don't come to Los Osos Community Park for the playground because it's old and the sand below it is yucky. Come for the skate park and you won't be disappointed.
A nice walk in Los Osos with views of Morro Rock is the Elfin Forest boardwalk. For a coffee in a serene setting, head over to Baywood Park Pier. For a fantastic experience in nature, gather rocks at Spooner's Cove in Montana de Oro State Park. For a fun place to eat dinner and hang out at a bookstore, head over to the Downtown Center in San Luis Obispo.

Los Osos Community Park has some nice slopes. Not sure what the funny old shed is for.
