Easy walk surrounded by Eucalyptus Tree Groves. All paths are paved or gravel (asphalt, cement or compact gravel). There's a picnic area with tables, bathrooms and grill. Sweet little walk along the lake. Two very large and open areas for dogs with water fountains for people
/dogs as well.
Love Scaregrove! Face painting, food, rides, entertainment for a small price that goes to a great place
I have seen the ballet, heard great free
music and just enjoyed a quiet afternoon in this park. Great save San Francisco, great save.
Outstanding venue. Incredible people. Great show. Can't wait for next season's line-up.
Amazing, this park is beautiful. The festival is super cool too.
Very nice park and located in a good location. Perfect dog park
Pretty private place to get fresh air and relaxing jog.
Excellent place to wander around all hours of the day, plenty of hidden trails for those who want a bit more adventure.
Beautiful park with lots of dog friendly paths and a huge off leash area.
Beautiful day at the Grove ! Ziggy Marley was BAD-ASS !! FUN, FUN DAY !!
Wide, tree lined valley is like an oasis in the city. Concert meadow is nicely landscaped and maintained; wish I could say the same about the playground.
I live across the road from this park. It's a quiet getaway during the week.
Beautiful place to walk enjoy the day grew up by the park ,,a very special place
Lovely place to hear music. It can be rather steep, if you're an old fart like me.
I love the Grove. Good music, good people, good times!
What a great public park so fresh and green great place to spend the day or go to the free events etc. For friends and family!
My peeps and I went to see/ hear the FUNK of George Clinton- Parliament- Funkadelic. The grove is the best place for an outside concert. The BAND and SINGERS were Funkin' on the 1.
Good Place To Hang - Out When A Somethings Going On.
It is a place for walking and dog walking and having a picnic in a quiet green glen.
I was so depressed the day that Bay Meadows was sold off piece by piece to make way for more ugly apartment buildings, Starbucks and Whole Foods Stores. Horse racing is a dying sport and I intend on doing everything in my power to try and save it. I attend the harness races every year during the Sacramento California State Fair...I've been to Churchill Downs twice (but never to the real derby) and Del Mar a handful of times. Oddly enough, my love for the ponies had never taken me to Golden Gate Fields in Berkeley.
A Beautiful Grove, A Great Outdoor Concert Venue!!
It's the best free concert around. But you have to get there before 10 am to get a decent seat for the 2:00 concert.
Best SF spot you never heard of. A Redwood grove off of 19th and Sloat that doubles as a concert venue. Free concerts every Sunday all summer.
I can t believe I ve heard of and have been living in the area for YEARS and have never been! So grateful that this place exists.! It s a must go to event.
Great concert series right here in the midst of the SF fog. The grove itself is worth the trip, add music and it becomes a must-do on anybody's list. The volunteer army deserves an honorable mention, they make this concert series possible. Of course every now and then hiccups happen but overall a well deserved positive feedback.
Awesome open area for events and performances! Dog friendly!
This is my third time here .love it here

This is a great park that holds concerts each summer. This year I went to see Sergio Mendes and it was a lot of fun! And the best part is that it's free, with donations accepted. You can also bring your own drink and food. It's best to get there early because the place fills up by 11am, maybe even earlier depending on the performer. You can hear the music everywhere, but if don't want to be sitting on an incline or on a log, then get there early.
Because the park is in the middle of the Sunset, it's pretty quiet, away from all the city noise. It's a nice place to relax or go for a jog.
Such an amazing place. You truly feel like you are way out in nature somewhere. It's so secluded that you forget the city is all around you. One of my favorite places ever!!
Free music, great park for animals, Halloween..etc..
Greatest place to talk your dog off leash in San Francisco
Stern Grove is a great place for families to enjoy nature and concerts and quiet time. My only issue is that the rules aren't being enforced. Today someone was walking across the concert seating area from me and my dogs and he let his dog of the leash (where that is prohibited) and his dog attacked mine. He was nowhere in sight and I couldn't help my own dogs because it seemed dangerous. Please keep your dogs on leash, and stay nearby to keep everyone safe and feeling protected at this park
Caifornia's BEST City Park for fabulous natural beauty, and FREE professional concerts!
This park has a nice pond and dog park(lots of dog poo though) concerts in the summer time every weekend (stern grove festival). Eucalyptus trees and beautiful grassy fields.
beautiful natural environment in the heart of the city
I loved the free concert. Beware of the climb back to civilization afterwards!
If you re looking for an outdoors experience this is definitely it. Get there early at least 11am to secure a decent spot for the concerts - unless you don t mind slipping and sliding in the hills. Not too cold but a jacket is definitely needed. Somewhat of a steep downhill walk going into the park and then not so friendly coming back up!
Ampther great year at Stern Grove . Music and so much more in a beautiful setting.
Don't forget a blanket or sweater.and a couple of dollars to donateto this entirely free serires.
FREE concerts performed by stars and legends in a beautiful outdoor venue among tall trees is an absolute win! Did I mention FREE!
I have been going to Stern Grove festivals since before I was 1. The grove is a magical place where the Bay Area community comes together to embrace nature and the arts. The ballet and the San Fransisco Symphony have always been some of my favorite performances. I appreciate that there is a section that allows dogs where you can still here the music, as we don t like to leave our dog at home. At the last concert I attended, there were also very delicious food choices. So Stern Grove scores an A+ in all of the categories!
It's free and you can make it a picnic day with friends and family and dance, dance, dance :) but you have to come early to get good parking and a good spot to lay out.
Beautiful park. The crowd for the Deltron show was horrid. Packed with yuppies that had nothing better to do that day in the pit area while all the hip hop heads were up on the view obstructing hill.
Quite and inspiring place. Curious, what was her before..
It right along 19th Ave, but when you step inside you are among tall redwood trees and cannot hear any of the passing traffic. It's a beautiful park which also has meadows and free summer concerts.
We were here for a wedding receptionist/picnic and it was great. Really nice views of the bay and of golden gate bridge. Would be great to just hang out or hold an event. All around clean.
Excellent, to exercise and walk pets ... or picnic!
Free festival with amazing artists and the location is just amazing. Make sure you come in couple hours before the shows start.
It is a park with very large trees, it is preserved in a very special way, every year in summer a free festival is held where world-class artists are presented, without a doubt it is a very special experience to see your artists surrounded by these pines and redwoods Huge, consider it if you go to Frisco
Beautiful park. Please keep all dogs on leash as there has been several incidents with wild coyotes...rare, but it has happened, especially with little dogs. Really special place, and has a great stage where they have great music bands that play here during the summer for free. Many are well known.
If you enjoy crowds the Stern Grove festivals are going on early Sunday through August 19th. Ziggy Marley and local talent Jennifer Johns they did their thing! 6/24
It was church and the spirit was present. ONE LOVE!!!
It was Fun and Very Family Friendly though I felt last year had more rides my Family still had a great time
If you love being outdoors this place is a great place to go. Beautiful atmosphere, and they have live concerts and best of all is it's free.
Nice for a walk. Gives you a cool feeling when walking inside as if your not in sf.
