Newbury Gateway Park is a fun seven-acre park in Newbury Park, California. It's right across the street from the Newbury Park Library. This park is a great spot for families and friends to hang out.

The park was first opened in 1999. It was created by the Conejo Recreation and Park District (CRPD) along with the city of Thousand Oaks. For a short time in 2012-2013, the park was closed for important repairs.
