Parks and Recreation

General Information
In designing the Mountain House community, an important objective was to accommodate a lifestyle less reliant on the automobile and more connected to activities within local neighborhoods. Each home is within a half mile of a park and within two miles of a community sports park. The 12 neighborhoods of Mountain House will be connected through an elaborate system of bike paths and pedestrian trails. Schools, parks, business districts and community activities will all be accessible by walking a short distance.

Listed below are a few parks and recreational areas specified in the Master Plan:


 * 12 five-acre neighborhood parks adjacent to K-8 Schools
 * 40 acres of community parks located within and/or adjacent to the Town Center
 * 20 acres of sport-related community park located north of Byron Road
 * 3 other community parks to provide a variety of active recreational and other specialized functions
 * 3 acre water-oriented community park along Old River

The parks and recreational areas in Mountain House are maintained by the Mountain House Community Services District.

Reserving a Park
Any of the parks can be reserved, in part or be full, for a private event. There is a small fee for the reservation. Without the reservation, park facilities are utilized on a first come first serve basis. If you want to ensure you have exclusive use of an area, it's in your best interest to make a reservation with the MHCSD.
