Stephen Sorensen Park Splash Pad

✓ Last confirmed for the 2026 season · confirmed against the parks department

Serving the Lake Los Angeles community in the Antelope Valley, this 2,200-square-foot county splash pad is topped by six fabric shade sails. That shade matters here, where high-desert summer temperatures routinely climb past 100 degrees.

When to go. Peak summer highs in Palmdale average 97°F. Mornings and late afternoons are far more comfortable than the middle of the day, and shade is worth planning around.

How long it's open. Roughly 22 weeks a year, from May to September. Seasons shift year to year and municipal pads often close early for maintenance, so check before a long drive.
